RUTLAND—Vermont Atty. Gen. William H. Sorrell announced last week that David B. McLellan of Mt. Tabor was sentenced on three felony environmental crimes: one count of illegal storage or disposal of hazardous waste, one count of illegal storage or disposal of solid waste, and one count of illegal release of hazardous materials. The convictions stem from an investigation conducted by the Vermont Attorney General’s Office and the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources in 2008 which discovered the burial by McLellan of 23 55-gallon steel drums containing hazardous materials, including waste oil, on his property in Mt. Tabor. Judge Thomas A. Zonay sentenced McLellan to one to three years in jail, all suspended, and placed him on two years of probation, subject to standard and special probation conditions, including conditions that he: permit the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources to access his business properties upon request, obtain all necessary permits for waste disposal, and appear before the Rutland County Reparative Board. The judge also sentenced McLellan to pay $29,077.24 in restitution to the Agency of Natural Resources for excavation and cleanup costs and a $10,000 fine.
Court date approaching in crack-cocaine case RUTLAND — The Southwestern Vermont Drug Task Force conducted an investigation into the distribution of crack cocaine and heroin in the Rutland City area. During the investigation Stacy Silva, age 19, of Rutland, and Walton Gaskin, age 20, of Bronx, N.Y., sold felony amounts of crack cocaine to an agent with the Task Force. Silva was under supervision of the Vermont Department of Corrections at the time of the sales and on field supervision. Silva was arrested for sale of crack cocaine offenses Jan. 19. After Silva’s arrest, with the assistance of the Department of Corrections, Gaskin was apprehended at Silva’s Rutland City FSU residence and arrested. Vermont Department of Correction personnel recovered bags containing a felony amount of heroin from Silva’s residence along with suspected suboxone pills. Silva was issued a citation to appear in court to answer offenses of sales of crack cocaine, felony possession of heroin, and possession of narcotic drugs. Gaskin was issued a citation to appear in court to answer the offense of sale of crack cocaine. Silva and Gaskin will appear in Rutland District Court March 22.
