Chris DeVries, 38, may go to trial in August or September.
On June 21, DeVries organized a North Conway protest he called âSkate Away the Hate,â which involved people riding bicycles and skateboards down White Mountain Highway from Schouler Park to Depot Road and back.
At the protest, DeVries spoke through a bullhorn and listed demands that he said came from local chapters of Black Lives Matter.
âIf we divest funds from police and prison systems, we all benefit,â said DeVries. âThose funds can go to local communities and social services.â
The following month, DeVries was charged with six counts of possessing child sexual abuse images, one count of possession of hallucinogenic psilocybin mushrooms and one count of falsifying physical evidence.

At their meeting today, selectmen will again take up the topic of North Conway Village’s lack of public toilets, a topic that has taken on additional urgency during the pandemic.
The selectmen will meet at the new town hall at 23 Main St. in Conway Village at 4 p.m. Their meeting can be viewed on Zoom; it is also live-streamed over Facebook.
On Monday, Town Manager Tom Holmes said he plans to update the board “on what we are doing as far as looking for a spot for permanent public restrooms, as well as coming up with a temporary seasonal solution for this summer.”
