According to police reports, a 27-year-old Salisbury resident, Maxx Rheaume, is facing allegations of sexual assault following an investigation initiated by the Vermont State Police on December 17, 2025. The inquiry was launched after reports surfaced concerning nonconsensual sexual contact with a juvenile.
Police say Rheaume voluntarily surrendered to authorities at the New Haven Barracks on February 23, 2026. He was subsequently issued a citation requiring him to appear in court. Rheaume is charged with sexual assault, and his court hearing is scheduled for March 30, 2026, at 12:30 p.m. in the Addison County Superior Court, Criminal Division.
The charges against Rheaume are allegations at this stage, and the court date is subject to change. Individuals interested in attending the hearing are advised to contact the criminal court clerk for the most current arraignment information.
