A Lincoln County grand jury has indicted State Trooper Gregory Vrooman, 45 of Nobleboro, on four counts of unlawful sexual contact, four counts of unlawful sexual touching, four counts of assault and one count of tampering with a witness.
The grand jury handed down the indictment last week; the information was not made public until after press time for the Feb. 24 edition of The Lincoln County News.
The unlawful sexual contact, unlawful sexual touching and assault charges all stem from four alleged incidents between Dec. 16, 2009, and Oct. 27, 2010, involving a 13-year-old Nobleboro girl, according to the indictment.
The tampering with a witness charge names the victim and her mother and alleges that Vrooman attempted to induce them to “withhold testimony, information or evidence.”
Vrooman is scheduled to appear in Lincoln County Superior Court in Wiscasset for arraignment on March 3.
The Lincoln County News will follow with a complete story in our March 3 edition.
