Todd Landry, President’s Award
Todd has been involved in all three areas of emergency public safety as an EMT, a firefighter and a police officer. Ultimately, he chose to pursue law enforcement and after spending 5 years as a local police officer in Littleton, Landry became a State Trooper in 1995 assigned to Troop F.
1995+10 = 2005. The above linked "Affidavit in Support of Application for Warrant" was most likely written in 2005. However, the dates are not exact, so it could have been written in mid to late 2004 or early to mid 2006.

B. Subpoenas (including search warrants): To the extent there are any subpoenas that are not grand jury subpoenas these materials will be produced. See Affidavit of Nancy Smith, Exhibit C, with list of documents produced. There are grand jury subpoenas that are not public and which would pinpoint the focus of the investigation, thereby damaging it for the reasons stated in the Affidavits of Landry and Strelzin. See Exhibits B and D.

2. Interference with any Investigation or Enforcement
The potential harmful effects of release of law enforcement investigation materials, particularly at a pre-indictment stage, was summarized in detail by the New Hampshire Supreme Court in Petition of State of New Hampshire (Bowman Search Warrants) as including the folowing: many prospective witnesses would be hesitant to come forward voluntarily; grand jury witnesses would be hesitant to testify truthfully as they would be open to retribution or inducements; those about to be indicted may flee; the risk of attempts to tamper with grand juries; if the nature and scope of the investigation is known evidence may be destroyed; individuals involved in criminal activity would be able to craft stories to fit the current state of the investigation or to coordinate stories; concern over releasing information about people that ultimately prove innocent and concern over the potential defendants right to a fair trial. (citations omitted). Bowman Search Warrants, 146 N.H. 621, 627-628 (2001).

B. Subpoenas (including search warrants): To the extent there are any subpoenas that are not grand jury subpoenas I have been advised that these materials will be produced. There are grand jury subpoenas that are not public and which would pinpoint the focus of our investigation, thereby damaging it for the reasons stated above. There are also search warrants that are not public and which would pinpoint the focus of our investigation; thereby damaging it for the reasons stated above. I can address this item with further specificity by in camera affidavit or testimony.
C. Credit card information: These records are the personal property of the individuals involved and were either provided voluntarily or by grand jury subpoena to the police. To the extent that any credit card information has been sought or obtained from any person other than Maura Murray; revealing that information would pinpoint the focus of our investigation, thereby damaging it for the reasons stated above. I have been trained and advised by counsel that, in addition to the concerns related to compromising the law enforcement investigation outlined in paragraph 3 above, financial information, personnel records, medical records and military records and other personal information are subject to privacy rights of the individual that they concern.

H. Possessed Property reports (referencing all physical evidence seized): In addition to items taken from Maura Murray's vehicle pursuant to search warrant, items of clothing or other items found during searches that may be of interest or that have been given to police that someone believes may have some relevance, other items that have been obtained through search warrants or grand jury subpoenas which as indicated above are sealed, and other items that may relate to this case which cannot be identified without disclosing the focus of the police investigation are in the possession of the state police. For the reasons stated in paragraph 3 above, I am strongly of the opinion that these items cannot be released or identified without severely hindering our investigation, endangering the viability of any future prosecution and substantially decreasing the likelihood that justice can be achieved for Maura Murray if it is determined that she has been the victim of criminal conduct. I can address this item with further specificity by in camera affidavit or testimony.

K. Photographs: In addition to the Maura Murray's vehicle, items found during searches that may be of interest or that have been given to police that someone believes may have some relevance or items that have been obtained through search warrants or grand jury subpoenas, which as indicated above are sealed, and other items or property that may relate to this case which cannot be identified without disclosing the focus of the police investigation have been photographed. For the reasons stated in paragraph 3 above, I arr strongly of the opinion that these items cannot be released or identified without severely hindering our investigation, endangering the viability of any future prosecution and substantially decreasing the likelihood that justice can be achieved for Maura Murray if it is determined that she has been the victim of criminal conduct. I can address this item with further specificity by in camera affidavit or testimony.

R. Employment personnel files: These records are the personal property of the individuals involved and were either provided voluntarily or by grand jury subpoena to the police. I have been trained and advised by counsel that, in addition to the concerns related to compromising the law enforcement investigation outlined in paragraph 3 above, financial information, personnel records, medical records and military records and other personal information are subject to privacy rights of the individual that they concern.

T. Military records: These records are the personal property of the individuals involved and were either provided voluntarily or by grand jury subpoena to the police. I have been trained and advised by counsel that, in addition to the concerns related to compromising the law enforcement investigation outlined in paragraph 3 above, financial information, personnel records, medical records and military records and other personal information are subject to privacy rights of the individual that they concern.

6. The State does not waive the right to assert that records of any other person in the possession of law enforcement either in this case or any other case may, on a case-by-case basis, be withheld from even the person that the records concern, as the privacy interest of the person is not the only privilege they may apply. For example if records are obtained by grand jury subpoena, including subpoenas issued by the Attorney General's office for records for the grand jury, although they may concern a particular individual, disclosing those records to the person in question would be likely to harm the investigation.

AFFIDAVIT OF JEFFERY A. STRELZIN
2. As part of my duties as a homicide prosecutor, I have been involved in the investigative phase of homicide cases and suspicious death cases. That includes monitoring interviews, reviewing and drafting legal documents, preparing search and arrest warrants, viewing death scenes and related evidence, working with the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, attending and/or reviewing autopsies, working with the State Police Forensic Lab and other forensic experts, authorizing one party and body wire intercepts, negotiating and attending cooperating witness interviews, subpoenaing records, drafting pleadings, dealing with witnesses and related issues, and participating in grand jury investigations. Some of the cases I have worked on have begun as missing person's cases and subsequently became homicide cases. I have also worked on other missing person's cases which have turned out not to be homicide cases.

8 THE COURT: All right. Thank you. Ms.
9 Smith.
10 MS. SMITH:
17 As far as the subpoenas, we have reviewed those
18 very carefully. There was one subpoena, which was not
19 a Grand Jury subpoena, and that has been provided,
20 and, in fact, this is a copy of what was provided
21 under the categorization in my affidavit. I would be
22 happy to provide this to the Court to look at.
From: https://www.reddit.com/r/MauraMurrayEvidence/comments/57q0ba/transcript_murray_vs_new_hampshire/d93c18k/
18 MS. SMITH: So, going -- looking, again, at
19 the specificity that we have provided in the
20 supplemental memorandum, we have provided the number
21 of subpoenas that were issued, I believe was
22 identified, and also the fact that they are, all the
23 ones that have been withheld are Grand Jury subpoenas
From: https://www.reddit.com/r/MauraMurrayEvidence/comments/57q0ba/transcript_murray_vs_new_hampshire/d93c9q3/
15 Q. In regards to the subpoenas, including
16 search warrants, to the extent that those are Grand
17 Jury subpoenas or -- and in addition that they are
18 search warrants, are you concerned with revealing
19 what subpoenas or search warrants have been obtained?
20 A. Yes.
From: https://www.reddit.com/r/MauraMurrayEvidence/comments/57q0ba/transcript_murray_vs_new_hampshire/d93cxom/ & https://www.reddit.com/r/MauraMurrayEvidence/comments/57q0ba/transcript_murray_vs_new_hampshire/d93d6he/
15 Q. Could you, please, state your name for
16 the record and explain to us what your position is in
17 the Attorney General's Office.
18 A. Sure. My first name is Jeffrey, which
19 is J-E-F-F-F-R-E-Y, and my last name is Strelzin,
20 which is S-T-R-E-L-Z-I-N. I'm currently a Senior
21 Assistant Attorney General at the New Hampshire
22 Attorney General's Office. I also work as the Chief
23 of the Homicide Unit and, essentially, I supervise
6 So, in this case, obviously, it's gone
7 on for what I'd call a substantial period of time.
8 That raises our level of concern. So, we do get
9 involved the longer it goes, that's one factor, and
10 then the other factor is what level of assistance is
11 needed. Is there legal work that needs to be done,
12 are there subpoenas, is there potentially Grand Jury
13 work, is there a request for one-party or body wire
14 intercepts? Those types of things will bring us into
15 the case.
