Saturday at 12:34 a.m., Adam Carter, 35, of Waterville, was summonsed on a charge of violating conditions of release.

A former Windham man convicted of a triple murder in New Hampshire was sentenced to death by a Florida jury for killing another prison inmate with a padlock.

Michael Woodbury, 42, has been serving a life sentence without parole in Florida since 2009 for shooting to death three people during a botched robbery at an Army Barracks store in Conway, New Hampshire, in 2007.

Woodbury, who previously lived in Windham, pleaded guilty in May to first-degree premeditated murder for beating fellow inmate Antoneeze Haynes to death with a padlock on Sept. 22, 2017, at Okeechobee Correctional Institution. During a three-day trial, Woodbury claimed that Haynes tried to rape him, according to the Okeechobee News.

A 12-member jury in Okeechobee County handed down its unanimous decision Tuesday after 37 minutes of deliberation. The judge presiding over the case can either follow the jury’s decision or give Woodbury a life sentence. A decision will be made following a September hearing, assistant state attorney Ashley Albright told the Conway Daily Sun.

Woodbuy was 31 when he shot and killed three people at an Army Barracks store in Conway, New Hampshire, in 2007. Killed were store manager James Walker, 34; and customers William Jones, 25, of Walpole, Massachusetts; and Gary Jones 23, of Plymouth, Massachusetts. Woodbury, who police said was in the middle of a multistate crime spree at the time of the murder, was captured in Fryeburg a day later.

AUGUSTA — Two more men are scheduled to be sentenced Monday in the Nov. 23, 2015, drug-related bludgeoning death of Joseph Marceau, 31, of Augusta.

The hearing is set for 1 p.m. at the Capital Judicial Center.

Damik “Doughboy” Davis, 28, of Queens, New York, and Michael “Dirty” Sean McQuade, 47, of Augusta, had pleaded guilty 11 months ago to felony murder and robbery in the Augusta killing and signed agreements with the state that spelled out their sentencing parameters.

The agreements said they would cooperate with the state with regard to prosecution of others in the case.

A third man, Aubrey Armstrong, 29, of Far Rockaway, Queens, New York, who was convicted of those two charges after a non-jury trial, was sentenced on July 13, 2018, to 30 years in prison for felony murder and a concurrent 29 years for the robbery. At that time, a friend of Marceau’s family told Armstrong to “rot in hell” for the killing.

Under Maine law, a person is guilty of felony murder if acting alone or with others persons, commits or attempts to commit a felony — murder, robbery, burglary, kidnapping, arson, gross sexual assault, or escape — and this causes the death of another person.

Armstrong was found not guilty of murder after Justice Daniel Billings said there wasn’t enough evidence to convict Armstrong personally of carrying out the murder.

It is not clear who administered the fatal blows to 31-year-old Marceau in the trash-strewn, fourth-floor apartment on Washington Street from which McQuade and his girlfriend Zina Fritze— who committed suicide in jail a day after pleading not guilty to the murder indictment — had been evicted.

Davis and McQuade blamed Armstrong, known in the Augusta area as “Butter,” and is known as “Acon” in New York, as the one who administered the fatal beating. Armstrong did not testify at his trial and said nothing to the judge at his sentencing hearing.

Billings unsealed the two cooperation agreements Friday. The agreements, signed Aug. 22, 2017, by Davis and McQuade and their respective attorneys, say that the charges of murder against Davis and McQuade will be dismissed when they are sentenced on the felony murder and robbery charges.

The cooperation agreements say, “The defendant shall NOT (with “not” capitalized and in bold) be protected from any charge of perjury or false statement.”

A number of other witnesses at Armstrong’s trial were given immunity from prosecution in exchange for their testimony.

Davis agreed to a sentence of 30 years — the first 20 to be served initially behind bars and the next 10 suspended while he spends four years on probation. He was not called to testify at Armstrong’s trial.

McQuade, who testified at Armstrong’s trial and said he saw Armstrong beat Marceau to death, agreed to a sentence of 25 years — the first 10 to 15 to be served initially behind bars and the remainder suspended while he spends four years on probation. McQuade’s attorney, Andrew Wright, is expected to argue at the hearing for the lesser period of incarceration.

McQuade also is to be sentenced on a series of burglary, theft and burglary of a motor vehicle charges to which he previously pleaded no contest. They occurred in October-November 2015 prior to the killing of Marceau.

McQuade testified at Armstrong’s trial that he would steal items to sell or trade for drugs.

McQuade testified that Armstrong wanted to rob Marceau of 5 grams of heroin he had been trying to market for several days and that McQuade and Fritze accompanied Davis, Armstrong and Marceau to the apartment.

He said he saw Marceau standing with his back to the entry door and Armstrong and Davis facing him.

“Immediately a milk bottle came smashing down across Joe’s head,” McQuade testified. “It was like a nanosecond, then Doughboy came smashing down with a chair across his head.”

McQuade said within the first 10 seconds Marceau hollered for them to “just take it,” meaning the drugs, but the beating didn’t stop.

Photos of Marceau’s body shown in court reflected three patterns of a property or grade stake that McQuade said Armstrong used to beat Marceau.

Marceau was found hog-tied in a bedroom by Augusta police responding to a noise complaint by neighbors in the apartment below.

The judge did not believe all of McQuade’s testimony.

In rendering the Armstrong verdict, Billings said, “Ultimately the court is not able to rely upon Mr. McQuade’s testimony to reach a conclusion that the state has met its burden to prove the charge of murder beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Billings said that McQuade’s testimony and statements about the crime appeared to minimize his own involvement in the events. Billings also noted that McQuade “was a heroin addict seeking drugs that day.”

KITTERY — Authorities say a man traveled from Massachusetts to Maine on a scooter using only his cell phone as a headlight.

Maine State Police posted a photo and description of the incident on Instagram on Sunday. Police say a trooper stopped the motorized scooter on the Maine Turnpike in Kittery just before 1:30 a.m. Friday.

The 26-year-old driver said he had traveled from New Bedford, Massachusetts. He did not have a valid driver’s license, and the scooter wasn’t registered. Police are reminding drivers that mopeds and motorized scooters are not allowed on the Maine Turnpike.

AUGUSTA — The final two defendants were sentenced Monday for the Nov. 23, 2015, drug-related beating death of an Augusta man, with the state’s attorney saying the sentences reflected the defendants’ early cooperation in the investigation and their acceptance of responsibility.

Both Michael “Dirty” Sean McQuade, 47, of Augusta, and Damik “Doughboy” Davis, 28, of Queens, New York, had pleaded guilty 11 months ago to felony murder and robbery in the killing of Joseph Marceau and signed agreements with the state that spelled out their sentencing parameters.

Justice Daniel Billings imposed the sentences recommended by both sides.

McQuade was ordered to serve an initial 12 years in prison with an additional 13 years suspended while he serves four years of probation. McQuade had prior misdemeanor convictions.

Davis was ordered to serve an initial 20 years in prison with an additional 10 years suspended while he serves four years of probation. Davis had prior felony convictions.

A third man, Aubrey Armstrong, 29, of Far Rockaway, Queens, New York, who was convicted of felony murder and robbery after a non-jury trial, was sentenced on July 13, 2018, to 30 years in prison for felony murder and a concurrent 29 years for the robbery. At that time, Bruce Davis, a friend of Marceau’s dad, told Armstrong to “rot in hell” for the killing.

On Monday Bruce Davis repeated that sentiment with regard to Damik Davis: “With all due respect to the court, may he also rot in hell.”

But he didn’t say that for McQuade.

Assistant Attorney General John Alsop told Billings that the prosecution believed Davis’s role “was subservient to Mr. Armstrong, that he did not share the same intent that Mr. Armstrong had to bring about the death of Mr. Marceau, but it was clear that he was directly involved in some of the physical beatings.”

Marc Menard, Marceau’s stepfather, said if Marceau were still alive, “He would wonder why Mr. Davis, who was brought to Maine to act as a bodyguard for a drug dealer, would assist him to murder someone who posed no threat to him.”

Menard added, “We have lost our faith that there is humanity in the hearts of all people in this world.”

As Davis stood to talk to the judge, he also turned around and told Marceau’s family members he had no answers to their questions. He said he thinks about what happened every night.

“I just wish it never happened,” he said. “You shouldn’t forgive me. I hope I’ll be able to forgive myself one day; right now I can’t because somebody lost their life for something that was stupid. I just want to say I’m sorry to y’all. I’m sorry.”

His attorney, Stephen Smith, told the judge that “with Davis’s full assent and cooperation,” the defense’s private investigator located key evidence and a key lead on a witness for the state.

At Armstrong’s trial, witnesses testified that a group of people planned to rob Marceau, who was a drug user looking to sell some heroin to get some crack. Marceau was taken to McQuade’s former fourth floor apartment at 75 Washington St., and the beating began almost immediately.

Prosecutors said Marceau was punched, kicked and beaten with a survey stick and his head was stomped on. While he gave up the heroin almost immediately, the beating continued. Then his arms and ankles were tied.

One image projected on a desktop monitor at Armstrong’s trial showed Marceau on his back on a bedroom floor, his head bloodied and bruised and with what appeared to be a swollen nose, blackened eyes. One gash was clearly visible in the middle of his forehead. He was found unresponsive and without a pulse by Augusta police officers responding to a neighbor’s noise complaint.

Damik Davis answered the door when police knocked, and the officers saw another individual — whom the prosecution said was Armstrong — pass behind Davis from the bedroom toward a back exit,

Damik Davis fled as well, but was arrested nearby that night. McQuade was arrested about a week later, and Armstrong was arrested in New York in July 2016.

McQuade, who testified at Armstrong’s trial that he saw Armstrong beat Marceau to death, also was sentenced to a concurrent two years on a series of burglary, theft and burglary of a motor vehicle charges that occurred in October and November of 2015 before Marceau’s death.

McQuade testified that Armstrong wanted to rob Marceau of 5 grams of heroin he had been trying to market for several days and that McQuade and his girlfriend, Zina Fritze, accompanied Davis, Armstrong and Marceau to the apartment.

Fritze, who also was charged with murder, felony murder and robbery, committed suicide in jail shortly after pleading not guilty to those charges.

McQuade said he only knew Marceau for a few months and described him as “respectful, considerate and an overall good person.”

“My actions, however unintentional, led to his death. That is something that I will live with every day for the rest of my life.” He said he was “truly sorry” for his part

He also told the family, “The only thing I can offer I’ve already given with my testimony, and I hope that it has given you some satisfaction toward justice for Joe.”

He said he knew Fritze felt horrible as well about what happened and would have wanted to apologize also.

McQuade waved goodbye to his mother as he left the courtroom.

Marc Menard, Marceau’s stepfather, said that if his stepson was still alive, “He would wonder how Mr. McQuade and Ms. Fritze could turn their backs on him since Joey considered them both his friends.” Menard told McQuade, “We as a family will forgive Mr. McQuade for his unwitting role in Joey’s death.” Menard also said Marceau “did not know or understand the drug world that he had most recently been a part of” and that Marceau struggled with mental illness.

“Joey’s moral compass would never have allowed him to even consider violence against a human being.”

Menard said the family would forgive McQuade “for his unwitting role in Joey’s death.”

Bruce Davis, speaking on behalf of Marceau’s father, Gerard, who lives in Florida, told McQuade at the hearing that he would not forgive him for helping to slay his only son. “The sentence he is getting does not satisfy me. His real sentence will come on judgment day.”

Billings noted that while he indicated previously he did not believe all of McQuade’s testimony at the trial, he found him credible on some points and added, “He did play a significant role in Mr. Armstrong’s conviction for felony murder.”

In imposing sentence, Billings told McQuade, “The best thing that you can do to show the victim’s family that the remarks you made here today were genuine is to live your life differently than you did before the tragic events that brought us all here today.” Billings made similar remarks to Damik Davis.

Under Maine law, a person is guilty of felony murder if acting alone or with other persons, commits or attempts to commit a felony — murder, robbery, burglary, kidnapping, arson, gross sexual assault, or escape — and this causes the death of another person.

The state dismissed the murder charges —which carry a sentence of 25 years to life — against both Davis and McQuade at the sentencing hearings. No one was convicted of murder in Marceau’s death.

McQuade and Damik Davis were sentenced in back-to-back hearings Monday at the Capital Judicial Center in Augusta, in contrast to the hearing in Lincoln County Superior Court in which the guilty pleas to the felony murder and robbery charges were handled together.

Marceau’s family declined to speak to a reporter after the sentencing hearing.

6:11 p.m., two Augusta people — James Noyes Clifford, 51, and Ann Marie Meserve, 46 — were each issued a summons on a charge of criminal mischief after criminal mischief was reported on Water Street.

IN GARDINER, Friday at 7:45 p.m., Mary York, 56, of Gardiner was issued a summons on a charge of criminal trespass on Maine Avenue.

A Randolph woman was arrested Saturday morning after she allegedly tried to steal a backpack full of items from a store in Gardiner, then damaged a police cruiser and injured herself as an officer took her to jail.

Police arrested Karen Marie Rowe, 53, at the Family Dollar store on Water Street. They first responded to the store around 10:07 a.m. on Saturday, after an employee called to report shoplifting.

When an officer confronted Rowe, she allegedly refused to let him inspect a backpack that was full of items from the store, according to court documents. Then, as police brought Rowe to Kennebec County jail, they allege that she had to be physically restrained and that she damaged a police cruiser.

On Monday, prosecutors filed a complaint charging Rowe with aggravated criminal mischief, a felony, along with two misdemeanors, refusing to submit to arrest and theft by unauthorized taking. She is being held at the jail in lieu of $500 bail.

It was the second time in less than two years that Rowe was arrested under similar circumstances. In April 2017, police charged her with theft by unauthorized taking, refusing to submit to arrest and failing to provide correct identifying information after theft was reported on Water Street. It was not immediately clear Monday whether those earlier charges have been adjudicated, as staff of the Capital Judicial Center were busy in the afternoon and unable to share Rowe’s 2017 court file.

The Gardiner police officer who arrested her over the weekend was aware of that history. “I know Rowe from a previous contact during which she engaged in nearly identical activity,” Officer Samuel Quintana said in the affidavit.

After confronting Rowe at the Family Dollar, Quintana said that she allegedly prevented him from inspecting the items in her bag, despite him telling her to stop.

“Rowe began escalating,” Quintana said. “… At that time, I felt that Rowe was not going to cooperate with my investigation. Out of concern that she would eventually (create) an unsafe situation during my investigation, I decided to restrain her for the rest of the investigation for her safety and mine. I grabbed Rowe’s arm and placed it in a ‘chicken wing’ position behind her back. Rowe began actively resisting and I took her to the ground where I instructed her to get on her stomach and give me her hands.”

When Quintana drove Rowe to the hospital, he alleged that she continued to put up a fight, kicking at the doors and trying to pry open the protective plastic partition between the front and back seats. She did so much damage to the car, that afterwards, the driver’s side rear door handle was inoperable, the passenger side handle was ripped off the door, and parts of the plastic partition were cracked, according to Quintana.

At one point along the drive, Quintana allegedly had to stop the cruiser and again restrain Rowe on the ground so that he could calm her and handcuff her wrists, he said.

During that restraint, “she began screaming and yelling that she could not breathe, that she did not steal, and that she needed to get home to her babies,” Quintana said.

When Quintana arrived at the jail, he said, he saw that Rowe had scrapes and cuts on her legs.

Maine State Police have arrested the driver of a pickup truck who allegedly attacked a couple and their two children Sunday in Sedgewick.

Troopers were called to a home on Graytown Road around 7 p.m. to investigate what they are calling a road rage incident, state police said in a release posted on their Facebook page.

The family reported that a man in a black pickup truck engaged in a “physical confrontation” with them in their driveway before driving away, according to troopers Owen Reed and Hunter Belanger.

“The victims were treated and released from a local hospital with minor injuries,” state police said.

An investigation led police to the suspect’s vehicle on Tuesday. Richard Bubar, 43, of Deer Isle was arrested Tuesday night and charged him with Class B aggravated assault, News Center Maine (WCSH/WLBZ) reported.

Bubar was initially taken to the Hancock County Jail, but had been released by Wednesday night, according to a jail intake worker.

The incident has been referred to the District Attorney’s Office for possible prosecution. State police did not provide any additional information on what might have provoked the confrontation.

AUGUSTA — Local police are searching for answers after a man was shot by a gun early Sunday morning at a home on South Belfast Avenue under circumstances that remain mysterious.

The man was taken to the hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening and released later that morning, said Detective Sgt. Jason Cote, of the Augusta Police Department.

Cote declined to identify the man, because he was the victim of a shooting. He also offered little information about the circumstances leading up to the shooting and said that “not all of the parties are being fully cooperative” with the police investigation.

“It’s unknown” who shot the man, Cote said. “It’s currently being investigated. This wasn’t a random type act where the public is in any danger.”

The shooting was reported at 2:56 a.m. Sunday, at 965 South Belfast Ave.

Cote asked anyone with information about the case to contact Detective Christopher Guay at 626-2370, ext. 3434.

AUGUSTA — Three people face drug trafficking charges after police raided an apartment Tuesday on Middle Street in Gardiner, an incident a judge said “has all the earmarks of a major drug-trafficking operation.”

Two men from Brooklyn, New York, and one from Gardiner were arrested and taken to the Kennebec County jail. They were seen separately Wednesday afternoon by a judge at the Capital Judicial Center via video from the jail.

Jahneiro Conrad Samuel Plummer, 26, and Michael Antonio Nelson, 32, both of Brooklyn, are charged with aggravated traffickng in more than 6 grams of heroin, aggravated trafficking in more than 32 grams of cocaine base, and criminal forfeiture of $13,925.

Justice William Stokes set bail for each man at $75,000 cash with conditions prohibiting them from contact with codefendants and from leaving Maine, among other things.

Clifford Sousa, 42, of Gardiner, is charged with aggravated trafficking in more than 6 grams of heroin and aggravated trafficking in more than 32 grams of cocaine base. Stokes set his bail at $50,000, as requested by the state.

Kendra Vigue, 36, of Gardiner, who was arrested at the same time, is charged with unlawful possession of heroin. She posted bail before the hearing.

All the charges are dated “on or about” July 31, 2018, in Gardiner.

An affidavit by Maine Drug Enforcement Agency Officer Daniel Ames said he obtained a search warrant for the Middle Street apartment, and agents found three people inside: Sousa, Vigue and another woman who was not arrested or charged.

Ames said Plummer and Nelson were detained as they tried to leave via the back door.

Ames said Vigue tried to hide two corner bags containing heroin/fentanyl, which were recovered during the search.

Ames also said officers searching the rear bedroom occupied by Nelson and Plummer found a paper plate containing a large amount of heroin/fentanyl and that the drug “was spread across a chair and on the floor as if the paper plate had been thrown.”

Agents also reported finding more plastic bags of heroin/fentanyl and cocaine base that had been hidden throughout the room, resulting in a total weight of 151.9 grams of heroin/fentanyl and 289.8 grams of crack cocaine, all with packaging.

Agents located $14,035 in currency in the New Yorkers’ bedroom, and among the bills were MDEA buy-money from a controlled purchase conducted on July 30, 2018.

Sousa later told police that he rented the apartment and allowed Nelson and Plummer to stay there but had recently been trying to get them to leave and they refused, according to Ames’ affidavit.

Ames also wrote that Nelson said that people were overdosing on heroin, but the heroin he had “is better because it’s not too strong.” Ames wrote that Nelson didn’t think the heroin contained fentanyl. Nelson told police he had been selling drugs from the apartment for about a month, according to Ames’ affidavit.

However, Nelson said in the video arraignment that he was in New York on July 20 for the birth of one of his children, so he has not been in Maine for a month.

Attorney John O’Donnell, who represented the three defendants as lawyer of the day, said that Nelson could post up to $7,500 bail, but Stokes rejected the lower amount.

“Given the sheer quantity of heroin and crack cocaine and cash lying around this apartment, it has all the earmarks of a major drug-trafficking operation,” Stokes said.

A New Hampshire man pulled a gun on another motorist during a road rage incident on the Maine Turnpike in Portland, according to Maine State Police.

A caller told police that a man brandished the firearm during a brief road rage incident just after 5 p.m. Wednesday near mile marker 45 southbound in Portland. The driver with the firearm had been speeding and tailgating before making a “rude gesture” and showing the gun to the driver who called police, state police said.

Troopers eventually spotted the suspect’s vehicle near mile 31. The driver, 49-year-old Philip A. Gordon of Newmarket, admitted he had a Glock 19 9 mm handgun in his possession, police said. Gordon denied brandishing the gun during the road rage incident.

Gordon was charged with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon and police seized the handgun.

LEWISTON — Police arrested a local man in connection with reports of shots fired Thursday afternoon.

Anthony Dipierro, 37, of Lewiston was charged with reckless conduct with a firearm for his involvement in an altercation and discharge of a handgun, Lt. David St. Pierre said in a new release.

Dipierro was being held at Androscoggin County Jail. If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.

St. Pierre said there was no indication that anyone was struck by gunfire. A pistol believed to have been fired during the altercation was recovered in the area of 40 Bradley St.

Police responded to a report of a fight in that area at about 12:45 p.m. Thursday.

They swarmed the area, appearing to focus their attention on a Bradley Street sidewalk midway between Pine and Ash streets where a couple of dark objects had been left on the street.

Police later placed evidence markers in the area and were interviewing witnesses.

Drug agents were seen responding to the report and several witnesses reported hearing a gunshot.

Alphonse Blouin, who lives on Bradley Street one house down from where the altercation took place, said he was relaxing on his front porch with his dog.

He said he saw a man lying on the asphalt, his motorcycle on top of him.

“He was trying to get out of there,” Blouin said. “There was two or three guys who was pummeling him.”

The men were in their 20s and 30s dressed in T-shirts and cutoff shorts.

The man on the motorcycle, which Blouin said looked like a green Kawasaki, managed to get the motorcycle upright.

“He took off and I think they took a shot at him while he was leaving,” Blouin said.

Police are urging anyone with information about the incident to contact the Lewiston Police Department.

The investigation was still ongoing and the possibility of others being charged is likely, police said.
