By Maya Capasso and Betty Gagne From hoppy IPAs to malty brown ales, Seacoast breweries have something for every kind of craft beer lover. Here’s a look at what makes these breweries unique and what you can expect when you visit.
BareWolf Brewing
duction space is on view from the taproom, BareWolf brewers develop new brews each month because they value “ever-changing newness and the opportunity to live in the transitory,” the website said. One current brew is the I Drink Your Milkshake, a fruity, sweet, creamy beer, perfect for the summer months, which you can get to-go or to enjoy in the brewery. BareWolf hosts many community events, like comedy nights, live music and dance parties. Shop for local produce and crafts on Wednesdays at the Amesbury Farmer’s Market at the brewery.

According to owner and head brewer Alex McDonald, Earth Eagle always has a great variety of beer on tap and available to go in cans. “New England Gangsta is our flagship beer. Gangsta is a West Coast-style IPA that truly stands out in the IPA world,” McDonald said. The brewery is also offering seasonal blends right now, including their Spring Dandelion, Burdock, Lemon and Ginger Belgian Saison on draft. “Even if you don’t care for beer, we’ve got you covered. We have cider, seltzers and wine at both of our locations, and cocktails in Portsmouth.” The brewpub in Portsmouth offers a full menu that includes expanded flavors of burgers and hot dogs. Although there is no on-site parking, the private beer garden is just a short walk from Market Square. Well-behaved, leashed dogs are always welcome in the beer garden. Earth Eagle North in Somersworth welcomes you to a newly expanded 50-seat taproom that McDonald is excited about. “Our menu offers killer hotdogs and sausages to go along with our beer and wine license,” he said. There’s plenty of parking at this location also. Earth Eagle’s 8th Annual Sausagefest will take place on Saturday, Sept. 17, from noon to 10 p.m. at their Portsmouth location. After a two-year break, McDonald anticipates this year’s event will be “tremendous.” — Betty Gagne

beers on tap every day,” Kelly said. The varieties depend on the brew schedule, what’s available for ingredients, and the turn of seasons. He’s always adding new beers to the list, too. “We work with local farms to enhance our products,” Kelly said. One of the seasonal brews Kelly is proud of is their Haunted Overload Pumpkin Ale, which was developed in collaboration with DeMerritt Hill Farm in Lee. Every fall the farm offers their Haunted Overload, a Halloween tour that takes people on hayrides through scary exhibits. “We actually use their pumpkins, which are roasted in our own wood-fired brick oven, to brew this beer,” Kelly said. This blend is spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg and brown sugar before steeping on vanilla beans. The beer is served in a glass rimmed with toasted, crushed pumpkin seeds. “Most beer drinkers are looking for a pumpkin beer when fall gets here,” he said. The brewery is hosting its 2nd Annual Stripe Nine Brewfest in the Orchard on Saturday, Sept. 24 at DeMerritt Hill. “Last fall we welcomed 34 breweries to the event,” Kelly said. “There’s really nothing like holding a brewfest in an apple orchard.” — Betty Gagne

What you see is what you have when it comes to trim models coffin, Roger. Finally, if you want to be absolutely sure, grab your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). You’ll find it in your original paperwork, on your vehicle registration, on the driver’s door pillar, or, if you can’t find it in any of those places, it’s always engraved on a metal tag where the windshield meets the dashboard right in front of the driver. The VIN is not only a unique identifier for your car, but it also contains code that includes the make, model and year. And if your dealer looks up your VIN in his database, he can pull up every detail of your car’s configuration — body style, engine, wheel size, trim level and by how much you overpaid in 2015 (just kidding about that Well, based on the fact that all of your last one, Roger). paperwork says “Touring,” I’m going to guess that’s what you have, Roger.

All of a sudden, the car lurched forward. If I had been right behind somebody, I would have hit them. Once it did that, the noise stopped and the air conditioner started working again. I took it to Acura, and they couldn’t find anything wrong and said to bring it back when it happens again. My regular mechanic didn’t find anything either. Now it’s been almost a year, but I’ve been reluctant to take it out of town or in excess of 70 mph. I should note that nothing on my dashboard lit up as to any errors or engine issues. It seems we’re all stumped, so I’m hoping you can help me out. I’m considering getting a new car just because I’m fearful of driving this car out of town. Any suggestions or advice? — Debbie I think your air conditioning compressor seized up, Debbie, or partially seized up. The clues all add up. If your AC compressor suddenly seized up, or just became very hard to turn, it would no longer be able to compress your refrigerant. That means no cold air. And if the belt was trying to turn the compressor pulley but couldn’t, the belt would slip, and that could account for the
noise you heard. Why hasn’t it happened regularly? I don’t know, but it’s possible that the problem occurs only when the compressor gets really hot — like when you’re cranking the AC and driving at 75 mph for a long stretch. I think selling the car — especially if you like it and it’s otherwise in good shape — is premature. Instead, ask your regular mechanic if he’d be willing to drive it for a few days. If he takes it out on the highway and can get the symptoms to recur, he’ll be able to confirm right away what it is. And if he can’t make it happen, well, maybe he’ll make you a good offer on the car. Or you can just go ahead and replace the AC compressor. That’s easily going to run you $1,000. But given the age of the car and your description of the symptoms, I think there’s a high likelihood that’ll solve the problem. And if you’re otherwise scared to drive the car, it may be worth the investment. Do it now, before AC repair shops institute their midsummer “I’m desperate” surcharges. Good luck, Debbie.

at Lickee’s & Chewy’s Candies & Creamery Here ye! Here ye! Lords, knights, squires and all other manner of people are welcome to the gates of Lickee’s & Chewy’s Candies & Creamery (53 Washington St., Suite 100, Dover, 343-1799, lickeesnchewys.com). Proceed with a sweet tooth and an empty stomach, for mouthwatering indulgences await. Your host through this unique confectionary realm is owner and founder Chris Guerrette — he’ll quickly make you feel like a kid in a candy store with the help of his eponymous character partners, Lickee the knight and Chewy the dragon, who both hail from the “Kingdom of Caramelot.” Housed in the historic Cocheco Mills complex in downtown Dover, this 5,000-square-foot medieval-themed shop even resembles an age-old castle from the outside. You’ll find thousands of classic and novelty candies from around the world here, along with a full line of handmade chocolates and ice cream offerings, including its famous “King Shakes.” These over-the-top indulgences are quite literally fit for a king, featuring 24-ounce ice cream cups loaded over the brim with all kinds of ingredients reflecting various themes. The Scene recently caught up with Guerrette, an Air Force veteran who realized his dream to open the shop while overseas, about some of his favorite items at Lickee’s & Chewy’s and what to expect the next time you pass through the gates of his candy kingdom. How long has Lickee’s & Chewy’s Candies & Creamery been around? We opened in September of 2018. … I was in the Air Force for almost 25 years, active duty, and I was stationed overseas in Afghanistan in 2008. It was Christmastime and we had a lot of gift packages that had arrived from the United States. … I was sitting there one day and a friend of mine turned around and said ‘Man, that’s a lot of lickies and chewies,’ and I said, ‘That’s a lot of what?’ Come to find out that it’s an old military term that was used by the Army and other services way back in the day to literally mean junk food, candy and stuff like that. … So I told my friend right then and there that I was going to open a candy store with that name someday. … In 2014, a tiny little candy store in Durham, where I live, went up for sale. I ran that store for a few years and then started building Lickee’s and Chewy’s in 2018. What makes Lickee’s & Chewy’s Candies & Creamery unique? It’s a gigantic ice cream, candy and chocolate shop, and we kind of go overboard on all three of those things. I think the thing that brings

most people in is the ice cream, but then we also have all of our handmade chocolates and a ridiculous candy selection. … We just want people to come and enjoy themselves, and so I think the unique medieval theme and all the decorations make us different from a lot of other places. When you walk in the front door, there’s nothing for sale for the first 50 feet, just decorations. We call it the throne room … and you can sit down and take your picture with all the dragons. … We’ve built this place as a destination, and a place that people can come and spend maybe 45 minutes to an hour and just kind of explore and enjoy themselves. What is your personal favorite thing that you offer? The caramel apples, because I created a caramel that’s specific to them. I don’t use it for anything else. … We only do them in the fall, because we go pick the apples ourselves from local orchards, and we primarily use Honeycrisp apples for them. … Along with just some of our homemade chocolates in general, those are my favorite things that we make. We have one that uses my mom’s

This week I have the third and final biscotti recipe in this current series. This recipe is different from the previous two with a delightful amount of spices being a key part of the recipe. This might lead you to ask: What spices are used in this recipe, and do I need to buy all of them? There are only two spices: cinnamon and ground cloves. While the recipe calls for only half a teaspoon of ground cloves, this spice is a key part of the recipe. Cloves provide an almost peppery bite that makes this biscotti unique. As your regular cooking may not include this spice, try to find a bulk store where you can buy the tiniest amount. If you have pumpkin pie spice on hand, it makes an acceptable replacement, but you’ll have to be the judge as to the amount you use. You also won’t need to add cinnamon in addition to the pumpkin pie spice. If you like a cookie with a lot of flavor, go buy some ground cloves and give this recipe a try.

Set each loaf 2″ apart on a parchment paperlined baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes or until the dough is set. Leaving the oven on, remove the biscotti loaves and cool for 15 minutes on the baking sheet. Using a butcher’s knife, cut the loaves into diagonal slices, 3/4″ thick. Return slices to the cookie sheet with the cut sides down; bake for 10 minutes. Turn slices over, and bake for 10 minutes more. Remove biscotti from oven, and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack. Combine powdered sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and milk, stirring until smooth. Using a spoon, drizzle glaze over biscotti. Glaze should set in 5 to 10 minutes.

When I opened up the lid, something flew out or scurried out. I’m still not totally sure. Was it a bird or maybe a chipmunk or something else? The movement was fast, apparently too fast for me to realize what I was seeing. Regardless of what it was, I think we can be fairly sure it was a pretty good indication I’d left my grill unattended for too long. Usually I grill pretty much all year long, but for whatever reason, not this past year, and the grill remained dormant for the entire winter and the bulk of the spring. I deserved my rude greeting when I peered inside the lid. This is all to say that, yes, cookout season is here and you should definitely get your grill ready to go if you haven’t already. You should also start thinking about the beers you want to enjoy during the many, many cookouts you’re likely to attend or host, formally or informally. Is it a cookout without beer? Only you can answer that question. Of course, we have Memorial Day weekend bearing down on us and the Fourth of July will be here before we know it, even if it doesn’t seem that way right this minute. Year-round, I think weather plays a major role in your beer choices. I don’t want to speak for you but on a hot day you’re going to want something light and refreshing. On a cold day, you’re more apt to pick something a bit heavier, a bit more robust. That goes for cookouts, too. Especially this time of year, the weather is still a crapshoot. Last Friday we were in the 80s but just days before that it was cold and raw as we all tried to properly celebrate our moms. Your beer choice also depends on time of day, food choices and, you know, what’s in the cooler. A midday cookout generally screams, “grab something light,” to me, whereas an evening cookout calls out more subtly, “go for the double IPA.” It’s more complex than that, though. How long are you planning on staying? Are you going to eat something while you’re there? (You should.) Are you going to be participating in activities, such as Wiffle ball or volleyball, or maybe something less active, like cornhole? I tend to think that as your activity level increases at a cookout, the ABV of the beer should decrease. (Do you want to just play iffle ball or would you like to win?) And, what’s on the menu at this cookout? Are you digging into burgers and dogs, marinated steak tips or chicken breast, or maybe you or the host is grilling up spicy

Italian sausage. Give it a second to consider what might be best paired with the food you are eating. Don’t overthink it, though. You’re at a cookout, after all. Relax and grab a beer. Here are three New Hampshire beers to enjoy during cookouts this year: Tie Dyed Dry-Hopped Pale Ale by Great North Aleworks (Manchester) Light, crisp and hoppy — this goes with everything. Prater Vienna Lager by Henniker Brewing Co. (Henniker) As the brewery says, this is “bready and crisp,” and perfect for sipping in between Wiffle ball at-bats. Mountain Priest by Portsmouth Brewery (Portsmouth) Dark and earthy but surprisingly light and dry — nice for a relaxing evening cookout or some smoky, sweet barbecue. Jeff Mucciarone is a vice president with Montagne Powers, where he provides communications support to the New Hampshire wine and spirits industry.
What’s in My Fridge Daytime IPA by Lagunitas Brewing Co. (Petaluma, Ca.) This comes in at 98 calories and just three carbs and as I’m a man of a certain age, I apparently need to pay attention to such things. And, as such, I decided to give this a try. It was perfectly fine! I mean, this isn’t going to satisfy an ardent IPA enthusiast. But if you’re intrigued by a very light beer with just a touch of hop bitterness, this is worth a shot. It’s only 4 percent ABV so I think you’re allowed to have several. Cheers.

Film reviews by amy diaz
Firestarter (R)
ting to her, leading to a little explosion in the school bathroom. As Vicky and Andy had always feared, this incident puts Charlie on the radar of the government agency that had a hand in the college experiment that gave Vicky and Andy their powers (or heightened preexisting powers or something). Vicky had simply stopped using her telekinesis but Andy had used his ability to psychically “push” people to give people hypnotismlike smoking cessation treatments (but for cash only, one of his many “stay off the grid” procedures). The parents worry that Charlie’s abilities, with her since birth,
will make her a test subject (and maybe worse) for the government that will hold her hostage for the rest of her life. They intend to take off, running and disappearing as they always have, but they are not quick enough to escape Rainbird (Michael Greyeyes), another person with superhuman abilities sent by the shady Captain Hollister (Gloria Reuben) to bring in Charlie and her parents. Most of the powers of the people here are activated via staring — there’s a lot of close-ups on eyes, a lot of times we see Charlie squint or glare before something explodes. If a staring-heavy movie
is playing it straight (which this movie is), there isn’t going to be a lot of room for deep character insights and subtle performances. Everybody here is basically fine, giving it their mostly-all. Reuben is an entertaining villain-in-a-suit; Efron brings the slightest whiff of humanity to “dad of main character.” “Low-fi” is the description that settled into my brain about this movie, from the score that had occasional Casio-like notes to the opening credits that gave very Halloween-movies-remake vibes to the wardrobe choices to the pacing to the, well, everything. Perhaps for that reason, the movie never felt like it was asking all that much of me nor did I find myself expecting all that much from it. Slightly above average pizza, $12 per bottle red wine and this movie all feel like they are operating on the same level — sort of comfortable and enjoyable without being in any way stand-out — and feel like they create the natural combination for how this movie is best viewed. You need to watch something/ eat something/drink something effortfree after a long week and this movie needs you to be not super picky about plot or acting expectations. C+ Rated R for violent content, according to the MPA on filmratings.com. Directed by Keith Thomas with a screenplay by Scott Teems, Firestarter is an hour and 34 minutes long and distributed by Universal Studios in theaters and via Peacock.
they’ll get married and move into her dream house and live happily ever after. Except at the pre-prom pep rally, Stephanie’s rival Tiffany (Ana Yi Puig) causes a stunt to go wrong and Stephanie lands with such a thud that she’s sent into a coma for 20 years. When she wakes up she’s horrified to learn that the strange 37-year-old woman looking at her is actually Stephanie’s (Wilson) own reflection in the mirror and that the world around her has moved on. Uncertain of what to do with her life, she capitalizes on the fact that her childhood friend Martha (Holland) is now the
high school’s principal and she goes back to school to finish the one month left of her senior year. While Martha and Seth (Richardson), another friend from the old days, are still around (Seth is now the school’s library), so is Tiffany (Chao), now married to Stephanie’s old boyfriend Blaine (Hartley) and the mom of Bri (Jade Bender), the school’s new queen bee. This comedy offers a blend of Big/13 Going On 30-type kid brain in adult body comedy, Strangers With Candy and its inappropriate adult in a high school setting, and the 21 Jump Street movie with its com-
edy about Gen X/elder millennial-types encountering modern high school culture. It is not quite as smart, funny or sharp as any of those properties, but it has its moments. What Wilson lacks in emotional range she makes up for, to some degree, in willingness to be as ridiculous as the scene requires. Senior Year isn’t a good movie but it feels like the kind of movie that could hit you at the right moment and be a thoroughly satisfying movie, with its occasionally successful bits of silliness, multiple dance numbers, turn-of-themillennium jokes and the affability of its cast. C+ Available on Netflix.
Things get toasty when a young girl gets angry in Firestarter, a new adaptation of the Stephen King novel.
Based on some light Wikipedia-ing, this does seem to be an entirely new riff on the book and not some universe-continuation something with the 1984 Drew Barrymore version. There is an early 1980s vibe attached to this movie, even though the first date we see on the screen is from footage of college students Vicky (Sydney Lemmon) and Andy (Zac Efron) being interviewed on some scratchy video from way back in technologically primitive, er, 2008? Also, when we meet little girl Charlie (Ryan Kiera Armstrong), she may be pouty about not having wi-fi and smart phones but her clothes seem straight out of the E.T. wardrobe department, which adds to the movie’s overall out-of-time feel. Vicky and Andy are technology-eschewing parents living in a small Maine town who disagree about whether their middle-school-ish daughter Charlie needs to “push it down and bury it” (Andy’s point of view) or “learn to control it” (Vicky’s preference). The “it” is the catchall for Charlie’s abilities, the most worrisome of which is her ability to start fires with her mind. Or rather, her not-quite-controllable tendency to start fires when she gets really mad. I guess she had been “pushing it down” but lately she finds that peer bullying about her weirdness is get-

Out of the Corner, by Jennifer Grey (Ballantine, 335 pages) She had the time of her life. I’m sorry, but it had to be said. There’s no other way to sum up the gilded, glossy existence of actress Jennifer Grey (best-known for Dirty Dancing and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off), her much publicized problems with her nose notwithstanding. I came to Grey’s new memoir, Out of the Corner, with exceedingly low expectations, having read too many celebrity memoirs that exist only because the authors are famous. Shockingly, it turns out that Grey can actually write and has entertaining things to say. Granted, some chapters are more riveting than others — she charges out of the starting gate with an essay on her plastic surgery that’s as good as anything I’ve read in months. Things necessarily slow down when she fills us in on, say, middle school — there’s really no one famous enough to make me care about what their life was like when they had braces and acne. But even then her life was interesting enough (naked people in a hot tub at Larry Hagman’s house, anybody?) to drag us through the wonder years to return to the interesting stuff. Grey is the daughter of Academy Award performer Joel Grey and Jo Wilder, and the granddaughter of Mickey Katz. She admits that this star lineage earned her “a certain degree of warmth right out of the gate” whenever she met someone in New York or L.A. In New York, she recalls her parents giving starstudded dinner parties and going to a grand Christmas party each year where famous musicians, actors and directors would stand around a grand piano robustly singing show tunes — accompanied by Stephen Sondheim. “So even though we were Jews and didn’t have our own Christmas tree, we did okay,” she writes in an understated style. Her parents led glamorous lives and were often gone for weeks, but were fiercely devoted to their family (which included Grey’s younger brother who was adopted). But for all of Grey’s fond memories, there are glimmers of dysfunction — her mother, for example, would at times walk around the house naked in front of her daughter, once told her that she’d tried to commit suicide by putting her head in an oven, and once told Grey that her brother was beautiful but she was “interesting looking.” It seems like stuff you tell to a therapist, not put out in the world, but it makes for interesting reading, even though it’s unclear what Grey’s motives are, given that her parents, now divorced, are still alive and she doesn’t seem to hate them. Side note: Grey’s father, who recently turned
90, came out as gay in 2015 at the age of 82. But in her memoir, Jennifer Grey explains how she and her mother found out years before: when the mother of Matthew Broderick, whom Grey was dating at the time, told her. “It was like a sniper attack,” Grey writes, saying the knowledge “rattled me to my core” — not because of his sexuality, but because of the deception. It was heartache, she wrote, to know that he had to hide an important piece of his life from the people who loved him. Out of the Corner is filled with deeply personal revelations like that — often wrapped in a tale about a Hollywood superstar. And she provides a backstage pass to all her movies, telling, for example, how she was cast before Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing and had not wanted him to get the part. But that isn’t why the book is good. It’s good simply on the strength of its writing, which sent me digging through the acknowledgements to see if there was a hidden ghostwriter. Apparently there was not; although Grey credits an editor, Barbara Jones, who worked closely with her, she says that the novelist Dani Sharpiro told her she needed to write the book herself. (Is there anyone she doesn’t know?) There are also surprisingly mature themes running through the memoir, such as Grey’s mother’s increasing unhappiness as she sets her own talent and ambition aside to support her husband’s career. “I come from a long line of women who became mothers and wives at the expense of the career they wanted.” That said, Grey herself got married and became a mother at the age of 41, an experience, she writes, “that far exceeded my wildest dreams.” About that nose — Grey writes that her mother’s attitude was “In case of emergency, break nose” and that when she was young, “I had always felt like my nose needed protection, like a kid sister who regularly got bullied on the schoolyard. I was my nose’s keeper.” But Grey liked how she looked, and she only succumbed to pressure to have it altered after a surgeon told her that a deviated septum had her breathing at only 20 percent of normal capacity. Two procedures later, it did not go well; on a plane, Michael Douglas (there she goes again) didn’t recognize her. A woman working an airline counter looked at her ID and said, “I’ve seen Dirty Dancing a dozen times. I know Jennifer Grey. And you are not her.” Grey now seems to be deeply at peace with her nose and her life, and for someone who has seen Larry Hagman naked in a hot tub, seems to be shockingly well adjusted, and even, dare I say, wise. Her book is an unexpected summer pleasure, though it helps if you’ve seen the movies. A — Jennifer Graham

Book NOTES The Pulitzer Prizes were announced last week, and it’s a good time to note the vast ocean that lies between critically acclaimed books and their reception by the unwashed masses. Let’s just say the tastes of media elites and the general public are not always identical. The fiction winner has a title that sounds like a Borat movie: The Netanyahus: An Account of A Minor and Ultimately Even Negligible Episode in the History of a Very Famous Family (New York Review Books, 248 pages). Joshua Cohen’s novel is described as historical fiction, which assigns way too much gravitas to a novel that looks more to be a merry romp through history enlivened by imagination. I plan to read it not because of the Pulitzer, but because of its title. Yet someone left a one-star review on Amazon and wrote: “Clueless author.” That didn’t age well. The Pulitzer for biography went to the late Winfred Rembert — and his “as told to” coauthor Erin I. Kelly — for Chasing Me to My Grave, an Artist’s Memoir of the Jim Crow South (Bloomsbury, 304 pages). The book intersperses photographs of Rembert’s art with his stories of growing up in Georgia in abject poverty amid undisguised racism, his time in prison and his evolution into an acclaimed artist. No one could vilify this poignant remembrance or author, but there were only 80 ratings on Amazon, an astonishingly low number, compared to, say, 19,000plus for Stephanie Myers’ Twilight and 23,800 for Jodi Picoult’s Wish You Were Here. Finally, the prize for general nonfiction went to Andrea Elliott, a staff writer for The New York Times who spent eight years following the life of a homeless Brooklyn child named Dasani. The resulting book is Invisible Child, Poverty, Survival & Hope in an American City (Random House, 624 pages). This one fared better with Amazon readers — 910 ratings, many of whom followed Dasani’s story as it was serialized in the Times. And most found the book engrossing, despite its formidable length. There were Pulitzers awarded for history and poetry, as well, but these three merit your attention — no matter what anyone on Amazon says. — Jennifer Graham

Abby is a wonderful, social 4-year-old spayed potbelly pig. Abby has worked very hard to lose weight and is feeling fantastic. She is an absolute sweetheart and is very friendly and gentle. She loves kids and was a big hit during our recent Farm Camp. She currently enjoys living in a paddock with mini horses, ducks and other farm friends. She is laid back and shares her space without issue. Abby loves to wander around outside and lay in the sand and enjoy the warm spring sunshine. She also loves to be tucked in snug as a bug when sleeping in her stall. Abby is an easygoing gal and will gladly lean in for some pats or belly rubs from her human friends. She loves snacks and is very gentle taking them from your hand. If you are interested in adopting Abby or any of our farm animals, please contact the New Hampshire SPCA Farm Program at info@nhspca.org.
Other ways to help the animals Join thousands of animal lovers and their dogs at Stratham Hill Park on Sunday, June 5, for Paws Walk, the biggest animal welfare event on the Seacoast. Visit nhspca.org for more information.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD by Andrews mcmeel syndication
Irony
Police were called to a home in Trenton, South Carolina, on May 7, where two bodies were found in the backyard, WJBF-TV reported. The first was Joseph Anthony McKinnon, 60, who apparently died of a “cardiac event,” according to the coroner. The second body was Patricia Ruth Dent, 65, who was McKinnon’s live-in girlfriend, and who clearly did not die of natural causes. An autopsy revealed that Dent had been strangled; police believe a struggle took place inside the home, and McKinnon wrapped her in trash bags and placed her in a pit he had dug in the yard. They concluded that McKinnon had suffered a heart attack during that process.
