Tuesday, June 26BRATTLEBORO -- A local man is being held on $5,000 bail in connection with the theft of an SUV in Brattleboro and a break-in at the Seymour Market in Morgan.
Kenneth Martel, 45, of Vernon pleaded innocent to felony charges of grand larceny, unlawful trespass and aggravated operation of another's vehicle June 13, as well as a misdemeanor charge of petty larceny, according to records in Orleans District Court.
Martel also pleaded innocent to felony drunken driving for an accident in Morgan that led to his arrest on June 11, records show.
Martel is being held in Northern State Correctional Facility in Newport for the lack of bail.
The Caledonian-Record reports that senior trooper Michael LaCourse was responding to the report of a burglary at Seymour Market on the morning of June 11 when he came upon a crashed Ford Explorer on Valley Road near Morgan. He found Martel walking not far away, LaCourse said.
Martel told police he was camping out at a relative's camp on Holland Pond and had been seen taking items from his vehicle and hiding them, according to the report. The items, including cigarettes, beer and a rope, matched with what was missing
from the market, LaCourse said.
Martel admitted breaking into the store, as well as stealing a kayak and other items from a neighbor on Holland Pond, LaCourse said.
The Explorer was stolen from Unique Auto in Brattleboro on June 7 or 8.
LaCourse arrested Martel and he was held on $10,000 bail until his arraignment June 13, records show.
Martel has a record that includes burglary, drunken driving and violating conditions of release in Windham District Court in Brattleboro.
Brattleboro man faces several charges following head-on collision

Type 1 -I think this shows you what driving under the influence is not a good thing because you cause an accident and you can also get yourslfe in trouble like the guy in the article he robbed a store while drinking.

Type-3

FCA'S

1. Describe the point system in Vermont using the state statutes found this page,


2. Use the spell check


3. give your feeling about the law

The point system is for when you are pulled for breaking the law in some way then points are added ,to your licence, once you meet a maximum amount of points then your licence is taken away, if you reach ten points your licence is suspended for 10 days, if you reach 20 point its 20 days and so on.

I think that this is a good law, or system because it teaches you not to brake the law while driving. when you brake the law and get caught the police officer will initiate points to your licence and a fine to pay, points depend on what you have done to receive a certain amount of points. This is also a bad law because if you loose your licence then you cant drive to work and then you may get fired.
