Drugs and Guns: Milford Woman and Two Men Indicted

A Milford woman and two men are indicted on drugs and weapons charges after a traffic stop in Orono.

Two Suspects Are Charged with Trafficking and One is Also Facing a Firearms Charge

Three people were named in the indictments handed down this month.

Tara Culpovich, 49, of Milford is charged with unlawful trafficking and unlawful possession of drugs
Robert Moreau, 48, is charged with unlawful trafficking of drugs
Paul Dolhancryk, 40, of Enfield is charged with unlawful possession of drugs, possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, and violating conditions of release.

The charges stem from a traffic stop in Orono on May 25th.

Tara Culpovich Was the Subject of a Search Prior to This Arrest

A Penobscot County Sheriff's Deputy conducted the stop after learning that Culpovich was in a vehicle with Moreau who, according to her bail conditions, she was not supposed to have direct or indirect contact with. Those conditions followed a search warrant that had been executed at 32 Pine Street in Milford earlier that month.

Officials Seized Crack and Guns From the Trio

When the vehicle was stopped on the southbound side of I-95 in Milford, Culpovich initially gave a false identity to the Deputy. When they confirmed it was Culpovich and the driver was Dolhancryk, a search of the vehicle was conducted. Officials seized 3.1 ggw of suspected Crack Cocaine, a Glock 9mm handgun, a .22 revolver, Mossberg 12-gauge shotgun, and other items indicative of drug trafficking activities.
