Leonard Boswell

Congressman Leonard Boswell and his wife, Dody, have released the following statements after law enforcement announced David Dewberry was arrested in Missouri last night.

From Congressman Boswell:

“Today’s news that the 2nd suspect in last weekend’s home invasion has been caught is a testament to the professionalism and diligence of the law enforcement agencies involved since they arrived on the scene Saturday night,” said Leonard Boswell. “My family and I have cooperated fully in the investigation and will continue to be as helpful as possible as the case moves toward the next step – prosecution. I am pleased that the suspects have been arrested without major incident and I ask for privacy for my family and I as we continue to work through the events of last weekend.”

From Dody Boswell:

“I was disappointed to learn that the alleged intruder at my family’s farmhouse was David,” said Dody Boswell, a longtime teacher in the area. “David and his mother were one of the many families that I befriended in our tight-knit school district and community. As a teacher, I always paid special attention to students and parents facing challenges, and this was one such family. Years ago, David accompanied his mother during visits to the farm where he swam in our pond and played on our land. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, for this is surely a difficult time for them, as well. There are no winners in a situation like this.”
