The request to delay the trial of a Merrimack woman accused of killing her son has drawn an objection from the state. Defense attorneys for Danielle Dauphinais are asking to push back the trial four months because her lead counsel is leaving, but prosecutors are calling the motion premature because the trial is still seven months away, plenty of time for new counsel to get up to speed. Dauphinais is charged with murdering her 5-year-old son, Elijah Lewis, in Merrimack. Prosecutors said she allegedly killed the boy in or around September 2021.
