A Boothbay Harbor man has been sentenced to over five years in prison for transporting a stolen vehicle and violating conditions of his supervised release.
Ronald Fuller, 63, of Boothbay Harbor, was sentenced to a total of 5 years and 4 months imprisonment, consisting of 16 months imprisonment for transporting a stolen vehicle in interstate commerce and an additional 4 years imprisonment for violating conditions of supervised release. Fuller pleaded guilty to the stolen vehicle offense on November 8, 2013, and also admitted on that date that he had violated the conditions of his federal supervised release.
According to court documents, in April of 2013, Fuller, a suspect in numerous unsolved burglaries in Boothbay Harbor and Wiscasset, stole a 1971 Chevrolet Malibu from Woolwich. He drove the stolen car from Maine to Missouri, where he was found and arrested. Court records show that at the time he committed this new offense, he was on federal supervised release following a 1998 conviction for possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon.
The investigation was conducted by the Sagadahoc County Sheriff’s Office, the St. Francois County (Missouri) Sheriff’s Office, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
United States Attorney Thomas E. Delahanty II announced the sentencing in a statement. Contact: Craig M. Wolff, Assistant United States Attorney, (207) 780-3257.
Fuller’s lengthy prison sentence underscores the consequences of violating the terms of supervised release, said U.S. Attorney Delahanty II. This case also highlights the importance of federal, state, and local law enforcement working together to bring offenders to justice.
The case is a prime example of the cooperative efforts between law enforcement agencies, which led to the successful prosecution of Fuller.
