In January 2015, House Bill 1555, sponsored by Mark Connolly in partnership with the Merrimack County Coordinated Response Team, goes into effect providing new protections for elderly citizens of New Hampshire.
Some of the highlights of the bill:
- it is a crime for fiduciaries who, for their own profit or advantage, deprive or take real or personal property of an elderly, disabled or impaired adult for the benefit of someone other than the adult.
- there are criminal penalties for offenders who know or reasonably should have known that the victim is an elderly, disabled or impaired adult.
- there is broadened protection against financial exploitation beyond “incapacitated” adults.
