According to police reports, a 43-year-old man from Richford, Rene Robitaille, was charged with unlawful trespass and criminally operating a vehicle with a suspended license following two incidents in late March and early April 2026.
On March 31, police received a report regarding a possible trespass violation at a residence on School Street in Richford. Officers found that Robitaille had entered a property despite having been notified that he was not permitted to do so. Efforts to locate him at that time were unsuccessful.
Subsequently, on April 7, police located Robitaille driving on Main Street. A traffic stop was initiated, during which officers discovered that his driver’s license was criminally suspended in Vermont. As a result, Robitaille received citations for both offenses.
He is scheduled to appear in Franklin County Superior Court on June 1, 2026, at 8:00 AM. The charges against him are allegations, and court dates may change as the case progresses, according to police.
