Gerard Beloin has been a roofer for more than two decades. In 2002, he was one of several roofers to place a bid on the new roofing project in the neighboring town of Goffstown, New Hampshire for their local high school Goffstown High School. In preparing for his bid, he examined the roof. He noticed that the roof was not only not up to code, but dangerously close to collapsing. The roof was made of tectum decking. This material is strong when it is first installed however tectum becomes weak when exposed to water.(page 5 number 3 explains the potential dangers) As such, after being exposed to water for many years, the material was now dangerously close to collapse. (note the video is about five minutes but a few minutes in a demonstration is made of what will happen to this material)

Wow, what a story!!
I don’t know how this hasn’t gotten national attention. The comments at the link are pretty interesting as well.
likely said by principles of the story though since they are anonymous we’ll never know. Maybe, when the roof in the school actually collapses, then it will get national attention. It’s actually indicative of how little the media cares about corruption that it didn’t receive national attention.
good ole boy politics, with murder thrown in for good measure.
