TUFTONBORO – The two people found dead outside and behind a camp on their property Saturday died from environmental hypothermia, and their deaths were both ruled suicides, according to a press release from Attorney General John Formella.

The two deceased adults have been identified as a married couple, David Warren (79) and Rae Lynn Warren (78) of Tuftonboro, the release said.

“Mr. and Mrs. Warren are the owners of the 40 Governor Wentworth Highway property. At approximately 9:24 a.m. on May 2, 2026, the Tuftonboro Police Department responded to a single-family summer residence located at 40 Governor Wentworth Highway, in Tuftonboro. The police responded after receiving a call from a neighbor who had discovered two deceased adults outside and behind a camp on the 40 Governor Wentworth Highway property,” the release said.

The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner conducted autopsies on Mr. and Mrs. Warren Monday.

“The Chief Medical Examiner has determined that the cause of Mr. and Mrs. Warren’s deaths was environmental hypothermia, and the manner of both deaths was suicide,” the release said.

“No further release of information is expected,” the release said.

On Saturday, authorities said they were investigating the possibility that the deaths were likely the result of a murder/suicide.
