DOVER, N.H. - A Rochester woman police say gave heroin to a Rochester man in June 2014 that resulted in his death has had her trial pushed back to at least March.
Jennifer Harriman, 33, of 141 Flagg Road, Gonic, faces up to life in prison if convicted of dispensing a controlled drug, heroin, that resulted in death.
Jason Danner of Rochester, known as "Captain Redbeard" by his friends, overdosed on June 23, 2014, and died a week later never regaining consciousness.
Rochester Police Capt. Gary Boudreau said at the time of Harriman's indictment in March it isn't often that police are able to develop enough evidence to charge someone with such a crime, but in this case they were.
Prior to its continuance, the trial was to have gotten under way in October.
Harriman also faces a January status hearing in Strafford County Superior Court in a separate 2014 drug case.
