DOVER - A Milton woman has been indicted on fentanyl possession charges in connection with an August arrest that occurred while she was out on bail awaiting her trial on robbery charges set to begin in December.
Haley Cahill, 20, of 10 Saltbox Lane, Milton, was indicted Oct. 20 by a Strafford County grand jury on charges of fentanyl possession and trafficking charges and attempted possession of fentanyl.
Both indictments indicate Cahill was out on bail when her arrest on the drug charges occurred in Somersworth on Aug. 11.
Meanwhile, her trial on conspiracy to commit armed robbery and armed robbery has a final pretrial next month and jury selection in December.
The robbery charges stem from a brazen daylight assault case that also allegedly involved a just-released Strafford County Jail inmate and a New Hampshire State Prison inmate.
Jeremy Jackson, 24, who currently is incarcerated at the Dover jail, was indicted in March and July on several felony charges in the armed robbery that occurred in December in Dover.
Also indicted in the case is Charles Brown, 42, of New Hampshire State Prison in Concord.
Brown was incarcerated on unrelated charges at the time he is alleged to have helped hatch the scheme for the assault and robbery.
Court records state the three acted in concert on Dec. 12 in committing the robbery and threatening the victim by pointing a gun at him.
The shooting occurred around 11 a.m. with witnesses reporting to police that Jackson was involved in an altercation with another man outside a residence on George Street in Dover and pointed a handgun at him, a police statement released shortly after the incident said.
After the victim ran away from Jackson, he fired a shot into the victim's residence and fled the scene.
No one was injured in the shooting.
Brown helped plan the robbery from prison and conversed by phone prior to its execution," Dover Police Lt. Brant Dolleman said shortly after the indictment was handed down, adding that Brown and Jackson could also have hatched their plan in prison where they had spent time together in the past.
After an initial investigation Dover Police Department detectives obtained an arrest warrant charging Jackson with criminal threatening, reckless conduct, and being a felon in possession of a firearm, all felony charges.
Two days later on Dec. 14, Dover and Rochester Police along with the Strafford County Sheriff's Office Drug Task Force located Jackson in an apartment building at 17 Norway Plains Road in Rochester where he was taken into custody without incident.
It is alleged that Jackson, who was released from the Dover jail just hours before the alleged robbery and shooting, had material help from Cahill in commission of the crimes.
Principal allegation listed in the indictments are that Cahill "picked up Jackson from the House of Corrections," and/or "drove Jackson to the location where the robbery occurred," and/or "provided Jackson with a firearm," and/or "drove Jackson away from the scene."
The indictments charge Brown with two counts of conspiracy to commit armed robbery, Jackson with two counts of armed robbery, criminal threatening, reckless conduct and being a felon in possession of a firearm; and Cahill with one count of conspiracy to commit armed robbery and one count of armed robbery.
Jackson is being held at Strafford County Jail on $200,000 cash bail with no trial date yet set.
Cahill's bail is now at $40,000 after her August arrest.
An indictment is not an indication of guilt, only that enough evidence has been presented to warrant a trial.
