OSSIPEE, N.H. — One man has been arrested on a charge of second degree murder and two others have been charged with conspiracy to commit robbery, in connection with the death of 20-year-old single mother Krista Deann Dittmeyer, according to Senior Assistant Attorney General Jane Young, chief of the New Hampshire Criminal Justice Bureau.

Dittmeyer’s body was found in a small snowmaking pond at the Cranmore Mountain Ski Resort on April 27, four days after her car was found running but abandoned in a nearby parking lot with Krista’s 14-month-old baby daughter, Aliyah, strapped into her car seat unharmed.

Investigators into Dittmeyer’s death have charged 28-year-old Anthony Papile, of Ossipee with second degree murder. They also arrested 23-year-old Trevor Ferguson, of Tamworth, N.H., and 28-year-old Michael Petelis of Ossipee with one count of conspiracy to commit robbery. All three men were scheduled to be arraigned on those charges in Ossipee District Court at 2 p.m. Wednesday afternoon (May 11)
