Lisa Landon, 33, of Littleton, a town in New Hampshire, attracted the attention of prosecutors after a state forensic examiner who was to perform a competency evaluation on her noticed that the charges had been ‘dropped’.

“The file purported 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 documents in the file, had been filed fraudulently,” wrote Superior Court Judge David Anderson in a ruling regarding the case.
