WEST STEWARTSTOWN — Former state Sen. Jeffrey Woodburn was taken to Coos County Jail last Wednesday after six years of legal battles, two criminal trials, and multiple trips to the state Supreme Court, but his lawyer said he is considering one last court filing.

Woodburn, 58 (D-Whitefield) was taken into custody from the courtroom Wednesday in Grafton Superior Court in Haverhill sentenced on two misdemeanor criminal mischief convictions in what started as a domestic abuse case.
