In April 2017, Manley was indicted in Merrimack County Superior Court on the charges, including a methamphetamine possession charge, after being accused of driving at high rates of speed in a residential area of Franklin while being chased by police. She was arrested in Concord in August 2013, according to a post on Patch, on a habitual offender charge after being accused of driving in Penacook in May of that year. Manchester police arrested her on a warrant and then handed her over to Concord police.
Franklin police stated earlier this year that she had been in hiding since June 2018, adding in a reply in the comment section of the org's Facebook post, "We firmly believe friends and family have contact with her."
