In Moultonborough, New Hampshire, The Union Leader reported last week:
  • A woman who stole $75,000 from her mother, who was being cared for at a Laconia nursing home, has been sentenced to nine months in jail. Attorney General Kelly Ayotte said Candy Latour, 38, of Moultonborough, was sentenced by a Belknap County Superior Court judge [Wednesday] in a case that was prosecuted by the New Hampshire Department of Justice's Medicaid Fraud Unit. [...] An investigation revealed that the defendant had control over proceeds from the sale of the victim's house, as well as access to the victim's bank account, and had diverted the funds to her own use.
