NORRIDGEWOCK, Maine — A Norridgewock man is facing several drug charges after authorities raided his home and arrested him Tuesday morning.
At about 11:15 a.m. Tuesday, police executed a drug search warrant at the home of Dakota Turcotte, 19, on U.S. Route 2, according to Lt. Carl Gottardi of the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office.
During the search, 15 growing marijuana plants and a pound of pot, along with oxycodone pills, Suboxone pills, several firearms, cultivation equipment, drug paraphernalia and cash were seized, Gottardi said.
Turcotte was arrested and charged with trafficking in a schedule W drug, trafficking in a schedule Z drug, possession of a schedule W drug, and cultivation of marijuana.



Thought all the pot growers were just good citizens that want to enjoy a natural plant?
What’s a “good citizen”? Sounds collectivist
I’m not seeing any mention of how this man hurt anyone else.
Perhaps from selling his drugs that end up on the hands of children.
Children don’t have any money.
Blame big pharma for creating such toxic products… blame the doctors that prescribe this garbage… This kid was cultivating a plant, not mass producing tablets full of toxins….
Who could have harmed someone by supplying narcotics.
Narcotics are bad for you , unless they are good for you.
Most are!!
I thought all Christians were good people. I thought all politicians were honost, hard working voices of the people. Guess we both have alot to learn.
Smoking POT is a character flaw.
Have you ever noticed that nobody ever shares any of your viewpoints? On any topic? Just wondering. Also, are you and Bangorian in some sort of competition? Who’s winning?
I received over 150 likes in one post ,about 2 weeks ago.
Also, the former host of WVOM’s Maine in the Morning said i have my finger on the pulse on everything that goes on in Central and Northern Maine.
Ohhh, it’s all about the “likey”! I was thinking it might be about the other posters response, but it’s the almighty likey. And I have an opinion on VOM.
WHO cares who Likes your posts. please! what is this a game to you ( Ages 0-4), if it is!
“nobody ever shares any of your viewpoints”
Like the Fireworks issue. Everyone said fireworks would not cause problems in Maine.
My viewpoint? The legalization of fireworks was a big mistake. There would be many injuries. The hooligans in the State would go wild with fireworks. That juveniles would get hurt by fireworks.
welcome to the legalization of fireworks in Maine:

At least he didn’t stick ’em in vacuum. (don’t you tell anyone)
I can just as easily say this man would have nothing to do with cannabis if there wasn’t a black market to sell it on.
he was selling the oxycodone pills and Suboxone pills
nope he wasnt selling pills ….. just saying …. none of u know all the facts … hes a good kid that found a way to make quick cash and pay bills for him and his family …. hes never been in trouble ever before no even a ticket …… he feels horrible for hurting his family,is embarrassed, and knows he now has to pay the consequences ….. and yes iv know this man since he was 6 …..
“nope he wasnt selling pills” “hes a good kid that found a way to make quick cash and pay bills for him and his family”.
You say hes never been in trouble before….Hes 19 and already a potential felon!
…Just making a note that there are two Kellys on here…
Your the only Kelly for me…..

There’s a familiar face in my neighborhood.
Selling cigarettes must be the gateway drug to selling drugs in the matriculation of a drug dealer’s career.
” matriculation”.
How did you get that word past the ever vigilant BDN CENSORS?
Sneaky.
nice
He’s out on bail already.

Make Marijuana legal and tax it, as far as the pills, that’s a different story!
