They were responding to a late-night break-in at the Brunswick, ME, apartment of 56-year-old Lancelot Cooper, a prominent figure in the community. When they stepped inside, they found a bloody and violent scene. It was clear from the attack that somebody wanted Lance dead, and as the details of that frigid January night became clearer to police, an obvious suspect emerged into focus.
