oars AEFIDAVIT IN SUPPORT OF SEARCH WARRANT. Gregory Floyd moved into Easton around the first of this year but first cane to my attention in mid to late April when the New Hampshire State Police came to my house and asked what I knew of him. Bia son vas attending Lafayette Elementary School and there was a problem over which Mr. Floyd became irrationally abusive - to the point the administration was concerned he might return and do something. Becat of the administration's concern they notified the state Police. He next came to my attention on April 29, 1997; 1 received a call from the counselor at Lafayette Regional saying th concern for the safety of the Floyd child. we expr joa uncer~ tainty whether he should notify DCYS because he'd received a report Gragory Floyd had been shooting and bullets had hit the house (shown on the attached map) of Mr. and Mrs. Boisvert at 112 Hunmingbird Lane. 1 would estimate the Boievert house to be 400 feet from the Floyd house and would classify the intervening distance as moderately to heavily wooded. ‘That same day I visited Mr. and Mre. Boievert. They related they had not reported the incident because they vere trying to be good neighbors but did indicate Gregory Floyd seemed strange and there was more to him than met the eye. They downplayed the incident however, said they only heard one, possibly two bullets hit somewhere around their house and that Mr. Floyd had apolo~ovre gized and told them he didn't realize their house was so clos his. Tt was my opinion they were more than nervous about Mr. Floyd's presence in the neighborhood. xX then drove to the Floyd house and Hrs, Floyd met me at the door} Mr. Floyd was not home. she did not invite me in. 1 talked with her for about five minutes but observed nothing that would indicate the Ployd child was in danger. 1 later called the counselor at Lafayette Blementary and reported what T saw. At this point 1 let the matter rest. Early during the week of May 12, 1 received a visit at ay hone fron Betty and Maurice Rodrique who reside at 53 Bumingbird ane and are the closest neighbor to Gregory Floyd; there was fear in their expressions. ‘They related Gregory Floyd had been shooting in the past and Mra. Rodrique told me it sounded 1tke he had an automatic veapon. She further related she'd just learned he had an azrest record for violent behavior. T thanked them for dropping by and told thea I would gst hack to them. I requested a record check through Grafton (attached) and called the chief in Tomsend, Massachusetts where the Floyd's had previously resided. ‘me Townsend Chief could shed no light on nother Kr. Floyd had automatic weapons but did indicate Mr. Floyd was capable of irrational behavior end to be careful on raking any approach. T contacted the Lovell Court and the Chelneford, Hess. Police Departnent (see attached criminal record) but they were unable to find the records on Mr. Floyd. on Friday, may 16, T visited first mr. and ure, Rodrique, ‘then Mr. and Mrs. Bo: wort, specifically to narrow the issue 218oon whether Mr. Ployd hae an automatic weapon. At this point they all seemed uniformly afraid of Mr. Floyd - to the dagree that their £ 1x now overrode their wish to be a good neighbor; they ‘talked openly. ‘the Rodriques told me they have heard Mr. Floyd shoot on three occasions, all at night. ‘The first occasion was late January to early February, about 9:30 at night. ‘There were two individual shots thet sounded 1ike large caliber. Mr. Floyd told the Rodrigu that he was scaring bears so his child could sleep. Both the Rodriques heard the shots. ‘The second occasion was about six weeks ago; only Hrs Ro- drique heard them; her husband was asleep as it was close to midnight. She related she heard a burst of about fifteen shots - a burst that sounded Like an automatic weapon. she said she is not @ gun woman but has on cccasion fired she did not feel you could pull the trigger thet fast. she further related that the shots cane so fast to each other they could not be counted indi~ She reported the sound was like automatic weapons in or television. ‘The third occasion was thr weeks ago, about 9 o'clock at night, three individual rounds of what sounded Like heavy cali-~ ber; both Mr. and Mrs. Rodrigue heard these. Both Mr. and Mrs. Rodrique indicated neither Mr. Floyd or his wife work and Mr. Floyd gets excited to the point it becomes hard to understand his speech, takes medication, and exhibits paranoid behavior. they mentioned Mr. Floyd recently started to put a locked chain across his driveway and kept it locked whether he was there or not. 216
