NH Corrections Searching For Burglar Accused Of Parole Violation

CONCORD, NH — The New Hampshire Department of Corrections is asking for the public’s help finding a convicted burglar who is wanted on a probation violation.

Byron Matthew Bouchie is white, 39, about 5 feet, 10 inches tall, and weighs around 170 pounds. He has brown hair and brown eyes. The word “Bouchie” is a tattooed on his right forearm and he also has a tattoo on his abdomen, too.

Bouchie was released from the New Hampshire State Prison for Men on July 6 after serving the maximum sentence on multiple burglary convictions. He was also convicted of possession of fentanyl in January 2021 after an incident in Keene and released with four years probation.

Days after being paroled, though, a violation of probation or parole charge was filed and a warrant was issued for his arrest.

“Bouchie reported to the Sullivan County Probation/Parole Office one time and attempts to locate him in the community have been unsuccessful,” investigators said. “Bouchie has a known substance use disorder and his criminal history includes convictions for theft(s), multiple burglaries, possession of controlled drugs, and multiple violations of probation.”

Anyone who knows where Bouchie is or sees someone who looks like him should call corrections at 603-271-1804, Cheshire County sheriffs at 603-352-4238, or local police.
