A tip in reporter Lauren Chooljian's inbox turned into a years-long investigation of sexual misconduct and assault allegations against the head of an addiction treatment network in New Hampshire. NHPR published last spring, but the story didn't end there.
The subject of her reporting, Eric Spofford, the founder of Granite Recovery Centers, sued New Hampshire Public Radio for libel. The homes of Chooljian, her parents, and her editor were vandalized. Earlier this month, three people were in connection to the vandalism.
Chooljian joins Vermont Edition to discuss , a new podcast from NHPR about her reporting and its aftermath.
Our guests:
- Lauren Chooljian, senior reporter and producer at New Hampshire Public Radio
Broadcast at noon Tuesday, June 27, 2023; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
