Katherine Price |
According to Hudson police, on Jan.
20 officer Matthew Blazon launched an investigation after an elderly and
disabled Hudson resident reported she had been the victim of
unauthorized access to her bank accounts by a home health care worker
over an eight-month time frame in 2019.
According
to police, following a monthlong investigation, Blazon issued an arrest
warrant for Katherine Price, 29, of Concord on charges of financial
exploitation of an elderly or disabled adult, fraudulent use of a credit
card and forgery.
On
March 7, Price was taken into custody by state police in Concord and
was transferred to Hudson police. She was booked on the charges and
released on $140 cash bail. Price is scheduled for arraignment in
Hillsborough County Superior Court in Nashua on March 19.
According
to Hudson police Lt. Mike Gosselin, the charge of financial
exploitation of an elderly or disabled adult, and the charge of
fraudulent use of a credit card, are Class A felonies because the
alleged amount for each criminal charge exceeds $1,500. Forgery is
charged as a Class B felony because it involves a suspect check, police
said.
