Employer Says N.H. Mother in Madbury Murder-Suicide Embezzled $660,000

Police had not completed the financial probe before the deaths.

Overview

  • Autopsies concluded Emily D. Long fatally shot her husband, Ryan, 48, and children Parker, 8, and Ryan, 6, before killing herself, leaving a toddler unharmed.
  • Wing-Itz owner Derek Fisher alleges Long diverted cash deposits and wrote checks to herself beginning in January 2023, and a bank told him statements she provided were manipulated.
  • Fisher filed a police complaint on Aug. 11; Hampton police referred the case to investigators but made no arrest prior to the Aug. 18 discovery of the deaths.
  • Fisher says he does not plan to seek recovery from Long’s estate and supports directing any remaining assets and community fundraising to the surviving child.
  • Officials urge against attributing the killings to a single factor as they review the alleged embezzlement, the husband’s recent glioblastoma diagnosis, and the mother’s posts about depression.
