NASHUA – The fifth day of Steven Spader’s murder trial, will begin in less than 30 minutes here at Hillsborough County Superior Court.

Eldon Spikes, a man Spader allegedly threatened with a knife when he thought Spikes was telling people about the attack in Mont Vernon, had just begun his testimony when court ended yesterday.

Quinn Glover, who said he was one of the men in 4 Trow Road during the attack, testified for most of the day on Thursday. He said Spader increasingly talked about robbing and killing people in the weeks leading up to the Oct. 4, 2009 home invasion and was “euphoric” following the attack.
