JACKSON, NH — A 21-year-old man has been indicted on multiple charges in connection with the November 2022 shooting death of a young woman in Jackson, New Hampshire.

Brandon Mitchell is facing charges of one count of second-degree murder for knowingly causing the death of 23-year-old Esmae Doucette by shooting at her, according to New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella. A Carroll County Grand Jury also indicted Mitchell on an alternative count of second-degree murder for recklessly causing the death of Ms. Doucette under “circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life by shooting her”.

Doucette was found suffering from a fatal gunshot wound at the Dana Place Apartments on Route 16 in Jackson on November 30.

Prosecutors also say that Mitchell was indicted for falsifying evidence after allegedly moving or placing a bullet in the bedroom.

Mitchell is expected to be arraigned for the charges on March 16.
