State May Seek Attempted Murder Charges Against Wendy Wright
Authorities believe Wendy Wright may be a danger to herself and others, and that she may have known what she was doing.
The prosecutor for the Seabrook Police Department said Wednesday there may be enough evidence to up the felony charges against a mother who forced her children to drink bleach from attempted first degree assault to attempted murder.
Detective Scott Mendes said that determination would ultimately be up to Rockingham County Attorney Jim Reams and his office and that it would hinge on the severity of the injuries caused by Wendy Wright, 33, of 15 True Road in Seabrook, who was arraigned Wednesday on two felony counts.
Mendes discusses the case, including why he feels Wright may be a danger to herself and others and why the charges may be increased, in the video above.
