NASHUA, N.H. — A teenager who helped hide evidence in a deadly New Hampshire home invasion and machete attack says he also provided an alibi for the first person to go on trial for murder in the case.
Twenty-year-old Autumn Savoy testified Friday against 18-year-old Steven Spader. Prosecutors say Spader killed Kimberly Cates and maimed her 11-year-old daughter in their home.
Savoy has pleaded guilty to hindering prosecution and conspiracy and will be sentenced to five to 19 years in prison.
Savoy had told police Spader was at his house the night of the attacks. He has said Spader told him hours after the home invasion that he had killed two people.
Savoy has said Spader told him the burglary was an initiation rite for his brotherhood, the Disciples of Destruction.
