A juvenile has been arrested and charged in the recent murders of a mother and her two children in Northfield, New Hampshire. Kassandra Sweeney, 25, and her two sons, Benjamin, 4, and Mason, 1, were found shot to death on Aug. 3 around 11:30 a.m. at a home on Wethersfield Drive in Northfield. “Since the alleged perpetrator is a minor, the law precludes the release of any further information,” the New Hampshire attorney general’s office said in a statement Thursday. “See RSA 169-B:36, I (“It shall be unlawful for any person to disclose court records or any part thereof to persons other than those persons entitled to access pursuant to RSA 169-B:35, except by order of court. Any person who knowingly violates this provision is guilty of a misdemeanor.”). The juvenile was charged with three counts of first-degree murder and one count of tampering with physical evidence. Authorities previously said there was no threat to the general public in connection with these homicides, as “investigators have identified all parties involved.” On Sunday, Sean Sweeney, Cassandra’s husband and the children’s father, addressed the tragedy publicly in a Facebook post and thanked people for their support. Remembering Cassandra, he said: “My beautiful wife was the most amazing, loving, sweetest person anyone could ever meet and how much she loved our boys.” He reminded everyone of the importance of keeping the memories of loved ones alive. Giving their full names — Kassandra Rae Sweeney, Benjamin Michael Sweeney, Mason Lee Sweeney — she said, “I will love and miss them forever and ever in my heart, I hope that’s true for every other person who reads my adventures ».
