CONCORD – Wendy Leedberg-Snow, 60, of Nashua, was sentenced, on July 9, to seven days in jail followed by two years of probation for creating a fraudulent marriage certificate.

Following the death of her partner, Eric Leedberg, in October 2023, Leedberg-Snow used the marriage certificate to garner property from Leedberg’s estate. She also attempted to influence a witness who was connected to the matter.

“This case involved a deliberate effort to manipulate official government records and exploit the death of a loved one for personal financial gain,” said state Attorney General John Formella. “Our vital records system depends on honesty and integrity, and those who seek to corrupt that system will be held accountable. I want to thank the investigators and prosecutors whose work ensured justice for the victim’s family.”

Following negotiations, Leedberg-Snow pled guilty to felony counts of solicitation to commit vital records fraud, title fraud, theft by misapplication of property and witness tampering.

In addition to the jail sentence and probation, Leedberg-Snow was ordered to pay $4,600 to Leedberg’s trust account as well as return a pickup truck and trailer to the estate. She also risks being sent to prison for up to seven years if she fails to remain on good behavior and comply with her sentencing terms.

Winchester Town Clerk James Tetreault was also involved as he “knowingly certified and signed a marriage license stating that he had performed the marriage when he had not performed that marriage.”

In April 2025, he pled guilty to notarial misconduct and was fined $1,240. Tetreault was also ordered to resign from his positions as a justice of the peace and as a bail commissioner. However, he still holds his town clerk position.
