It's been 1 year since a guard was killed in the NH state hospital lobby. My @nhpr colleagues @paulcunobooth, @toddbookman and I looked at what's changed - and what hasn't. First, recommended statewide security assessments have only just begun. #NHPolitics

The state has completed some safety measures at the state psychiatric hospital, but officials are only just beginning to take on most of the other security recommendations.

Her death was “preventable,” according to more than a dozen medical experts who reviewed a summary of her hospital and autopsy records at @propublica’s request. They called her case “horrific,” “astounding” and “egregious.”

Spent some time digging into what the candidates for NH governor are (and aren't) saying on this issue. “It needs to be talked about more, and we need to come up with some more resources to really take care of the issue,” one recovery worker told me. https://t.co/BnwivtxvSO

Neither Joyce Craig nor Kelly Ayotte has released a detailed plan for addressing substance use, though they have outlined some policy ideas.

This one is for the real nh election heads. The hardcores. #NHPolitics
Interesting story from @toddbookman - Gov. Chris Sununu said he wanted to make sure the new law didn't impact the 2024 election. But a provision in the law could complicate that. Neither the Secretary of State nor the AG are saying much on the issue. https://t.co/4zqAXv5O0Q

Really incredible community-based reporting coming out of @BlueRidgePublic right now. When the local, state, and federal government offices are tasked with on the ground emergency response, they rely on local news to help communicate information as widely as possible.
We're breaking format from the last few days to tackle some of the questions we've heard from you the most in this thread. 👇
