On Wednesday, following a mistrial in March, state prosecutors announced that they will not retry ex-state Sen. Jeff Woodburn on charges of domestic violence and simple assault, thus leaving Woodburn, they said, to be jailed for his previous criminal mischief convictions. The state’s decision not to retry Woodburn on the misdemeanor simple assault and domestic violence charges now results in those charges being dismissed. It is anticipated that Woodburn will be incarcerated for 30 days at the Coos County House of Corrections in West Stewartstown, pursuant to his prior convictions and once his appeal of those convictions is concluded, said NHAG representatives.
