Lengthy Investigation Leads to Criminal Charges

Cindy Harris
Woonsocket, RI
In late October, 2010, Pond Home administration contacted the Wrentham Police Department to report that several residents were reporting jewelry and cash missing.  This initial report led to the investigation of Cindy Harris, a newly hired CNA (certified nursing assistant) from Woonsocket, RI.

Detective Barry R. McGrath conducted a series of victim and suspect interviews, narrowing the police focus onto Harris.  After an extensive investigation and interviewing Harris, Det. McGrath decided that enough probable cause existed to file a criminal complaint against her for multiple charges of larceny.

The total amount of valuables taken are in excess of $10,000.00 in jewelry and at least $500.00 cash.

The Pond Home is an assisted living community and nursing home in Wrentham that caters to senior citizens.
