Cold Fusion champion's murderers were former renters gone irate

More than 6 years later, we now finally learn that two of the revered Cold Fusion scientists accused murderers had lived with the boyfriend's parents at the Mallove rental home.  After being evicted, a phone call from the upset mother who had been told their stuff was being thrown in a dumpster, sent the boyfriend to the scene where the murder resulted.

     "They are not the convicted murderers!  Wait until the judgment from the court!  There has already been one false alarm..."

Norwich, Connecticut, USA – Several Norwich area newspapers have reported that according to testimony given in court yesterday by one of the accused murderers, Candace L. Foster, it turns out that the brutal murder of the much-revered cold fusion scientist, Eugene Mallove, was perpetrated by herself and her then boyfriend, Chad M. Schaffer, and a man named Mozelle Brown at Mallove's rental home at the Salem Turnpike.

Foster testified that she and her then boyfriend, Schaffer once lived at the home with Schaffer's parents, Pat and Roy Anderson, who were renting from the Malloves.  She said the parents were evicted; then on May 14, 2004, Schaffer's mother called him, upset because another relative had seen somebody throwing their belongings into a Dumpster as they were driving by the property.

Schaffer and Brown apparently then showed up and began inflicting blows on Mallove.

Foster said Schaffer showed up at their Chestnut Street apartment with blood on his shirt and told her he needed her to go somewhere. Brown drove Schaffer and Foster to the house, where they had once lived with Schaffer's parents. Mallove, who had traveled from New Hampshire to clean out the property for his mother, was lying on the driveway, face down, Foster said, and "there was blood."

"Chad and Mozelle turned him over on his back," Foster testified. "Blood spurted from his mouth. He said, 'Help me.' ''

The two men, who had told her they had to make the scene "look like a robbery," pulled off Mallove's watch, shirt and shoes, Foster testified.

"They stomped him in the face and suffocated him," she said. "They put, like, a bag over his face."

Schaffer, the father of her two children, then struck Foster in the face and told her she had to hit Mallove, Foster testified.

"Did you?" asked prosecutor Paul J. Narducci.

"Yes," Foster responded. She said Schaffer told her she had to hit Mallove so that she would not tell on him.

Autopsy results indicated Mallove died of a crushed trachea. He suffered 32 lacerations to his face caused by a blunt instrument, as well as numerous other cuts and abrasions. He was 56 years old.

Thus was New Hampshire physicist, Eugene Mallove, killed at his family-owned home in Norwich. He had been cleaning out his childhood home which was being used as a rental property. A woman interested in renting the house found his brutally beaten body on the lawn that night.

Foster's dramatic testimony came during a probable-cause hearing for Schaffer. Defendants in murder cases are entitled to such a hearing within 60 days of their arrest. Foster waived her right to a probable-cause hearing, while Schaffer, 32, has opted to go ahead with his hearing.

Foster testified that she had helped Schaffer cover up the crime for years because she was afraid of him. She said she entered into a witness-protection program in June 2009 and finally told police the truth, because she "wanted to do the right thing."

The state is presenting its case to Judge Susan B. Handy, who will determine whether there is enough evidence to prosecute Schaffer for murder. Foster said she hopes to receive leniency in her own case in exchange for her cooperation.

Norwich police charged Foster and Schaffer with the murder on April 1 after reopening the investigation when a New London judge dismissed murder charges against two men initially charged with fatally beating Mallove in the driveway of his mother's home. The police say the investigation is continuing and there may be more arrests.

Here's a video tribute from an interview Mallove did on Coast to Coast AM in February of 2004, three months before he was murdered.  In this excellent video series, user Birdland11 adds photos and video footage from the work of Dr. Mallove.

    With these developments, so dies the conspiracy theory promoted on PESN that Eugene Mallove was offed because he promoted cold fusion research. We can now rest easier knowing that once again the idea that: Big government, big oil, men in black, the New World Order, etc, etc. silenced an "exotic energy" promoter was so much fantasy clap trap.

    As-holes, these motherfu-kers need for killed the same way that Mallove was killed. Bit-hes like these make America look bad in front of the world! One of the greatest man that supported cold fusion was dead because of some rent sh-t.

    It should have been apparent to anyone this wasnt some big conspiracy theory MIB coverup. Nothing was ever stopping Mallove from showing the world a working device. He just never did. Nothing is stopping Steron from showing a working device. Nothing was stopping Perendev. Nothing was stopping Tilley. Nothing was stopping Mylow. Nobody is stopping any of these people. All they have to do is show a working device. Not one of these people have shown a working device because they dont have one. If they did it would be easy to prove. I get tired of hearing people like Sterling keep bringing up the Conspiracy Theories for people that keep claiming to have working devices but produce nothing.
