Sherry Connor is the grandmother of Dennis 'Boo' Vaughan Jr, a young boy who tragically lost his life on Christmas Eve five years ago. It was a devastating event that shook the community and left many questions unanswered. Dennis was found inside his grandmother's townhouse in Laconia, New Hampshire, with severe injuries to his head and neck. The authorities quickly determined it to be a homicide, but no one was ever arrested for his death. However, that all changed when Sherry Connor, now 61 years old, was recently charged in connection with the death of her grandson.
The indictment against Connor includes charges of manslaughter, negligent homicide, assault, and witness tampering. According to officials, the grand jury found enough evidence to charge her with recklessly causing the death of her grandson, who remains unnamed in the statement. However, it is known that Dennis is the only unsolved death that occurred on that fateful day in Laconia. He had been living with his grandmother at the time, and his death was ruled a homicide.
Initially, Connor claimed that her grandson died of natural causes, despite the medical examiner's ruling. She even went as far as calling it "bulls**t" and maintained her innocence. However, with the recent charges brought against her, it is clear that the authorities believe otherwise. The Facebook group "Justice for Dennis 'Boo' Vaughan Jr" has been advocating for answers and accountability since his death, questioning why there has been no progress in his case for almost five years.
Dennis' mother, Danielle Vaughan, filed a lawsuit against the New Hampshire Division for Children, Youth, and Families in 2022, alleging that there were multiple reports of physical abuse and neglect while her son was in Connor's custody. These reports came from concerned teachers, social workers, and neighbors, among others. Despite this, Connor maintained her innocence and even questioned why she wasn't arrested if her grandson was hurt as badly as the medical examiner's report suggested.
It was a tragic and heartbreaking event that left a young life taken too soon. Dennis' siblings, who were also in Connor's custody, were placed into foster care after his death. If he were still alive, Dennis would have turned 10 years old this year. The community has been left wondering why there has been no justice for Dennis and why his name has seemingly been forgotten. But now, with the recent developments in the case, there may finally be some closure and accountability for his untimely death.
