2008 Crime in Maine Local Governments

How do you think he got too many free drinks in the first place?

PORTLAND, Maine—A 41-year-old Thomaston woman has settled her lawsuit over an illegal strip search at the Knox County Jail for $290,000.

Laurie Tardiff originally filed a lawsuit in 2002 after being strip-searched at the Knox County Jail following her arrest for tampering with a witness, a charge that was later dismissed. She then pulled out of the class-action suit and filed another complaint on her own.

BANGOR, Maine - A former employee of the Mountain View Youth Development Center in Charleston and the Franklin County Jail in Farmington was sentenced Tuesday in Penobscot County Superior Court to two years with all but six months suspended.
