N.H. home invasion convict sent to New Jersey prison

A New Hampshire man serving a life sentence for killing a woman and maiming her daughter in a 2009 home invasion has been moved to a New Jersey prison. WMUR-TV reported that the Department of Corrections confirmed that Steven Spader, 22, was moved to New Jersey Feb. 15. Spokesman Jeff Lyons said it is not uncommon to send inmates elsewhere in exchange for other inmates. He said officials do not give specific reasons for such transfers. Spader and Christopher Gribble were sentenced to life in the machete and knife attack that killed Kimberly Cates and severely injured her daughter, Jaimie, in Mont Vernon.
