Westminster, VT – A Marlboro woman was arrested earlier this month after deputies say she was observed driving despite a criminally suspended license in Windham County.
According to the Windham County Sheriff’s Office, the incident occurred on Saturday, December 6, along U.S. Route 5 in Westminster, a heavily traveled corridor connecting multiple Windham County communities to the Brattleboro metro area.
Authorities say Annalicia Blake, 39, of Marlboro, Vermont, was allegedly operating a motor vehicle while her Vermont operator’s license was criminally suspended. The arresting deputy, Deputy Thomas Raymond, reportedly knew Blake had an active suspension along with court-ordered conditions of release prohibiting criminal behavior.
Blake was taken into custody and transported to the Windham County Sheriff’s Office for processing, officials said. She was later released with a Vermont Criminal Citation rather than being held on bail.
Court records indicate Blake is scheduled to appear before the Windham Superior Court, Criminal Division, on February 10, 2026.. Bail was listed as not applicable.
The charges filed include:
- Criminal Driving License Suspended
- Violation of Conditions of Release
Criminal DLS cases in Vermont typically involve prior court action or repeat violations and carry more serious penalties than standard license suspensions. Law enforcement officials continue to stress the safety risks posed by unlicensed drivers, particularly on major roadways like Route 5.
Anyone with information related to ongoing traffic safety concerns in the area is encouraged to contact local authorities.
