Ex-Riverside Rest Home Staffer to Plead Guilty to Theft

Jen Bryant is set to enter a guilty plea and be sentenced later this month for allegedly stealing Social Security checks from a relative at Strafford County’s Riverside Rest Home, where Bryant was employed.

Bryant, 48, of East Rochester, was billing coordinator at the rest home in Dover when she was arrested in February 2023.

The charges at the time, two Class A felonies, theft by unauthorized taking and financial exploitation, alleged that Bryant used her job to bring her relative’s bill to zero and spent the money on herself.
