Concord, NH – Attorney General John M. Formella announces that the Strafford County Grand Jury has returned an indictment charging David Furbush, age 46, of Manchester, with one class A felony count of financial exploitation of an elderly adult.

The indictment alleges that between June 22, 2023, and March 15, 2024, Mr. Furbush served as trustee for an elderly adult (aged 60 or older) and, during that time, he took $1,500 or more in trust funds for his own profit or advantage.

The allegations in the indictment are merely accusations, and Mr. Furbush is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

Mr. Furbush is scheduled to be arraigned on the indictment in the Strafford County Superior Court on February 4, 2025, at 12:30 p.m.

This matter was investigated by Calice Couchman-Ducey of the Attorney General’s Elder Abuse and Financial Exploitation Unit, with assistance from the Lee Police Department and the Bureau of Adult and Aging Services.

The case is being prosecuted by Senior Assistant Attorney General Bryan J. Townsend, II, of the Elder Abuse and Financial Exploitation Unit.
