The Lincoln County Grand Jury has indicted a Wiscasset man on two counts of drug charges and one count that he violated his bail.

Chad Breton, 34, of Wiscasset, was indicted for unlawful trafficking of drugs after a June arrest.

Shortly after that arrest, Breton was rearrested for charges that he violated the conditions of his release.

On July 19, Wiscasset Police Officer Perry Hatch initially received information that there was a man at Tara Balducci's house in Wiscasset. Because Balducci was on bail at the time, she was subject to random searches, Hatch wrote.

Hatch received information that the man in the house was not supposed to be there, and Hatch was able to ascertain that it was Breton inside the house, because of a physical description and a description of the vehicle.

Through his cruiser's computer, Hatch was able to find information that Breton was also on bail, for two felony charges that included unlawful trafficking in scheduled drugs.

Breton was originally arrested June 26 in Wiscasset and was charged with Class C unlawful furnishing of scheduled drugs, which were allegedly suboxone. On June 28 in Wiscasset, Breton was charged with Class B unlawful trafficking in scheduled drugs, which were subutex, which is classified as a Schedule W drug.

As part of Breton's bail conditions for those arrests, he was not allowed to make contact with Balducci, or be at her residence.

Along with fellow officer James Simmons, Hatch conducted a bail search at Balducci's house where he found Balducci and another woman present.

Balducci reportedly let the police officers into the house but allegedly told the pair that there was no one else at the home.

Soon thereafter, Hatch reported to have heard a noise emanating from the bathroom; when he opened the door he reportedly found Breton, who was arrested for violating his bail.

Class B crimes carry a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison and up to a $20,000 fine, while Class C crimes can command up to a five year stint in prison with up to $5,000 in fines.
