Vermont State Police say a late report on December 1, 2025, led to the investigation of a possible violation of a restraining order in Waitsfield. Authorities identified David Lewis, a 49-year-old resident of Lincoln, as the individual allegedly breaching both his Conditions of Release and a Protection Order.
According to police, the investigation revealed that Lewis had not complied with the legal stipulations set by the court. Following these findings, he was issued a citation to appear in court. Lewis is scheduled to face charges at the Washington County Superior Court – Criminal Division on December 2, 2025.
These allegations are currently pending legal proceedings, and the court date may be subject to change. Individuals facing similar charges retain the presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law.
