NASHUA, N.H. (AP) – A Nashua woman is charged with giving methadone pills to a friend who died of an overdose.

Maria Jackson, 42, of Nashua, is charged with narcotic sales. She is not charged in the death of her friend, Catherine Wade, 39, who died in September, the morning after police say Jackson gave her several methadone pills.

Wade was arrested late on the night of Sept. 16, after employees at a drugstore reported that she was loitering and acting suspiciously. She died during the night in a police holding cell.
