Bank Fraud Leads to Arrest of Nashua Woman

Deadra Briggs, 52, of 8 Temple Place, was arrested Dec. 11 and charged with Theft by Unauthorized Taking or Transfer, Consolidation, a Class A Felony, in connection with an investigation launched in October by police on behalf of TD Bank.

On October 10 the Criminal Investigation Division took a report of a theft from TD Bank, which reported that money in an amount greater than $1,500 was improperly deposited into Briggs’ TD Bank account. Briggs later made a series of withdrawals, depleating the account. Detectives from the Criminal Investigation Division conducted an investigation which concluded that Briggs allegedly took money that she was not authorized to take.

A Class A Felony is punishable by up to 15 years in State Prison, exclusive of fines. Briggs is being held at the Nashua Police Department on a $2,500 cash or surety bail awaiting arraignment today.
