im not sure how it works in NH - will this go before a grand jury and possibly thrown out or does this poor guy go right to court?

In theory I agree with you - but why should this man have to pay to hire an attorney - lose time from his job to go to court - to defend himself, for protecting himself. If he had a permit for the gun and was on his own property, in my opinion, case closed.
