NH Parents Arrested After Son's Overdose Death

HUDSON, NH — A Hudson couple were recently arrested on charges they falsified and withheld evidence after their son's opioid overdose death. Robert Rando, 63, and his wife, Pauline, 60, were arrested Friday and charged with falsifying physical evidence and obstructing government administration in connection with their 31-year-old son Bryan's overdose death.

In a statement, Hudson police said they investigated the Randos for three months before their arrests last week. The Randos were released on $13,000 bail pending an arraignment in Nashua District Court February 8, 2018.

"Although arrests have been made, the investigation continues," Hudson police said in a statement.

If you or someone you know is dealing with opioid addiction, you can contact the state Department of Health and Human Services free crisis line at 1-844-711-HELP. Nashua and Manchester also have run "safe station" programs that allow those struggling with opioid abuse to get help at any city fire station.
