DOVER - The four suspects in two high-profile consecutive-night home invasion in Rochester this spring have been indicted on the second of the two robberies that occurred on May 21 and May 22.

Jacob Barrett-Carr, 23, of Somersworth; Rian Luther, 33, and Cory-Lyn Luther, 27, both of 34 Chestnut St., Rochester; and Amber Glennon, 22, of 61 Hanson St., Rochester, who were all indicted in August in connection with the May 21 incident at the Sunset Motel on Milton Road, have been formally charged in the one that occurred the next night on Front Street in East Rochester.

In the just released indictments handed down Sept. 15 the four were hit with several more felony charges in connection with the May 22 incident as follows:

Barrett-Carr: conspiracy to commit robbery, first degree assault, armed robbery, burglary, criminal restraint and two counts of falsifying physical evidence.

Glennon: conspiracy to commit robbery, burglary, armed robbery and two counts of falsifying physical evidence.

Cori Lynn Luther: conspiracy to commit robbery, burglary, armed robbery and two counts of falsifying physical evidence.

Rian Luther: first degree assault, armed robbery, conspiracy to commit robbery, burglary, criminal restraint and two counts of falsifying physical evidence.

According to Rochester police affidavits, Rochester Police responded to 30 Front St. in East Rochester shortly after 2 a.m. for the second home invasion in which a male was allegedly attacked and beaten with a baseball bat while inside his home.

Upon police arriving on scene they were able to learn the victim had been home when two males entered his residence, one striking the victim in the head with a bat and the other pointing a handgun at him. The victim was able to escape from his residence and call 911 as the suspects fled. The victim was transported to Frisbie Memorial hospital for non-life threatening injuries by EMS.

Court records obtained by The Lebanon Voice reveal a chaotic and bloody scene at the second alleged home invasion as five officers arrived at 30 Front St. to find the victim allegedly bludgeoned with a baseball bat, unconscious and bleeding profusely from his head.

A neighbor of the victim told police she first heard him outside screaming for someone to call police, and when she came out found him bleeding badly from his head, falling in and out of consciousness and rambling, the affidavit reads.

Police found blood splatters in the living room area of the victim's home as well as on the inside and outside of a front window. They also found a BB gun that appeared to have blood smudges on it and a baseball bat with blood on the handle and the hitting area.

Detectives, meanwhile, visited Frisbie Memorial Hospital where the victim was receiving stitches and staples in his head. According to the affidavit, the victim was alert at this time. He said he was at home and text messaged a friend of his, Glennon, and invited her to his residence, and that sometime later, she arrived with a friend of hers, Cori-Lyn Luther, whom the victim had met before.

The victim told police that the two women parked their vehicle down the street instead of in front of his house, which he thought was strange, according to the affidavit.

After hanging out a while, the victim said, "Amber and Cori-Lyn wanted to walk to the store. (The victim) said that Cori-Lyn and Amber wanted him to go with them. (The victim) told Amber that he would walk to the store with her if Cori-Lyn stayed at his home because his kids were upstairs sleeping. (The victim) explained that Cori-Lyn refused to stay at the house, then started questioning his manhood and making comments that a real man would walk them to the store," the affidavit continues.

At this point, the victim told detectives questioning him that the two women seemed eager to get him out of the house and he felt that something was not right, so he decided not to accompany them.

When he refused to go, the two women began texting on their phones and showing them to each other, the affidavit states, and after they left, he saw them drive past his house in their car several times.

After a bit, the victim told investigators he heard a noise in the other room, but knew his children were upstairs sleeping, so he grabbed a baseball bat and walked into his kitchen, where he was hit in the face, the affidavit states.

At this point, the victim said he saw two males, which he describes as one being a shorter white male and a black male a little shorter than (the victim). He said the black male had a metal baseball bat and the white male had a gun and that both were wearing masks.

According to the affidavit, he said the black male then began hitting him in the face and back of his head and the two began to struggle.

During the struggle, the victim was able to get the black male on the ground and began hitting him with his wooden baseball bat, while the white male recovered the metal baseball bat and began striking the victim.

The victim then said he managed to struggle free and escape through a living room window, but not before being hit about the head and back as he escaped and ran to his neighbor for help.

According to the affidavit, shortly after that interview police began the investigation on all four suspects, which concluded with them ultimately being arrested and charged in both incidents.

The August indictment charges in the motel home invasion include Barrett-Carr: three counts of armed robbery and one count of conspiracy to commit robbery; Rian Luther: three counts of robbery and one count of conspiracy to commit robbery; Cory-Lyn Luther and Glennon: a single count of conspiracy to commit robbery.

Rian Luther, Glennon and Barrett-Carr are all on high bail at Strafford County Jail, while Cori-Lyn Luther remains free on an ankle bracelet and other bail provisions.

An indictment is not an indication of guilt, only that enough evidence has been presented to warrant a trial.
