Woman Accused Of Impersonating
Prosecutor, Dropping Criminal
Charges Against Herself
By Mark Hayward New Hampshire Union Leader
A Littleton woman allegedly imper- sonated a Hillsborough County prosecu- tor when she filed bogus documents with court officials declaring that the drug possession and stalking case against her had been dropped, according to recently released
indictments.
Lisa Landon, 33, of Railroad Street, Littleton, faces one charge of false person- ation and six charges of falsify- ing physical evi- dence, according to Hillsborough County grand jury indictments hand- ed up earlier this month.
The indictments allege that
Landon submitted the fake docu- ments in three different court cases last November and December. In several instances, she used the New Hampshire court system’s electronic system to file documents.
In November, Hillsborough County prosecu- tors became sus-
picious when they heard from a state forensic examiner, who had been sched- uled to perform a competency eval- uation on Landon.
The examiner saw a notice in Landon’s court file that prosecu- tors had dropped charges; the examiner wanted to know if the examination should go for-
ward.
“The file purport- ed to contain a nolle prosequi (drop the charges) filed by Assistant County Attorney Patrice Casian, but it quickly became evident to the State that the document, as well as other docu- ments in the file, had been filed fraudulently,”
wrote Superior Court Judge David Anderson in a ruling regard- ing the case.
Indictments allege Landon also filed an order falsifying a deci- sion of retired Superior Court Judge Gillian Abramson to waive filing fees in a lawsuit she brought against Hillsborough County. And she allegedly filed an order on behalf of a relative to halt guardianship pro- ceedings involv- ing Landon’s child.
Landon’s history includes criminal charges in Manchester relat- ed to stalking and possession of methampheta- mine.
The grand jury also returned indictments of burglary and theft against Landon.
