The director of a New Hampshire homeless shelter and soup kitchen — a retired Manchester police captain — is facing felony charges he stole money from a trust set up for a disabled cousin.
The five-count indictment against 56-year-old Michael Tessier was handed down by a grand jury.
Tessier is charged with recklessly disregarding a known legal obligation to Thaddeus Jakobiec Jr., a blind and disabled cousin for whom the trust was established. Tessier allegedly transferred more than $80,000 to one of his personal bank accounts.
