佛蒙特州卡利多尼亚县哈德威克市哈德威克男子帕滕10月29日因非法持枪被判21个月：保释期间藏枪涉毒违反释放条件
美国佛蒙特州联邦检察官办公室10月29日宣布，佛蒙特州卡利多尼亚县哈德威克市男子亨特·帕滕当天被美国联邦地区法官威廉·塞申斯三世判处21个月监禁，刑满后还须接受3年监督释放。帕滕现年27岁，他于2025年11月3日承认自己作为毒品使用者和成瘾者非法持有枪支。根据法庭记录，2023年10月15日，帕滕在佛蒙特州洛厄尔市听闻西奥多·布兰德为毒品实施双重杀人后，用可卡因碱换取了一支枪。认罪后，帕滕于2026年1月27日获释回家等待量刑，释放条件包括不得持有枪支或毒品、不得违反州或联邦法律。然而2026年8月18日，哈德威克警方到帕滕住所出警时发现，他腿部有一处疑似自伤枪伤，附近的干衣机里藏着一支短管霰弹枪，厨房和卧室里还有价值数千美元的可卡因碱和芬太尼，帕滕随即因违反释放条件被羁押。本案由联邦调查局与哈德威克警方联合调查，联邦助理检察官达娜·希尔和杰森·特纳负责起诉。
Hardwick, Caledonia County, Vermont: Hardwick Man Patten Sentenced to 21 Months on October 29 for Unlawfully Possessing a Firearm; Gun and Drugs Found While on Release
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Vermont announced on October 29 that Hunter Patten, 27, of Hardwick in Caledonia County, Vermont, was sentenced that day by U.S. District Judge William K. Sessions III to 21 months in prison, to be followed by three years of supervised release. Patten pleaded guilty on November 3, 2025, to possessing a firearm as a drug user and a person addicted to controlled substances. According to court records, on October 15, 2023, after Patten heard that Theodore Bland had committed a double homicide for drugs in Lowell, Vermont, Patten obtained a firearm in exchange for cocaine base. After pleading guilty, Patten was released on January 27, 2026, to await sentencing, under conditions including not possessing firearms or drugs and not violating state or federal law. On August 18, 2026, Hardwick police responded to Patten's residence and found him with an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound to his leg, a short-barreled shotgun hidden in a nearby clothes dryer, and thousands of dollars' worth of cocaine base and fentanyl in his kitchen and bedroom; he was immediately detained for violating his release conditions. The case was investigated by the FBI and the Hardwick Police Department and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Dana Hill and Jason Turner.
