The Murder Blame Game

Grafton is a small town in Windham County, southern Vermont, with a permanent population of 587 and a median household income of $68,125, about the national average. In June 2002 it was the setting for the murders of Greg Enus and Colleen Davis, two people from poorer towns nearby whose bodies were found in a state forest a few miles from the village.

Greg Enus was born on 24 July 1968 in Bridgeport, Connecticut, and grew up in Vermont, attending Newfane High School and Leland High School in Townshend. He worked around lumber yards, including the Alard Lumber Company and CNS Wholesale Grocers in Brattleboro, and lived in Brattleboro on Eliot Street with a woman named Sandra. details of the account remain covered until revealed

Colleen Davis was 33, the same age as Enus. She was divorced, with three children, Jesse, Rusty and Amanda, one of the boys in a wheelchair. She had moved to Vermont from Maine in 2001 and lived with the children in a trailer at the Tenny Mobile Home Park in Athens, a collection of five dilapidated trailers in a meadow that had earlier been the scene of a heroin bust.
