PARIS – A former Rumford man convicted of terrorizing a Rumford woman last year was ordered to jail Tuesday for violating his probation.

An Oxford County Superior Court judge ruled that Glen Scott Dubois, 27, of Colebrook, N.H., is to serve 14 months at a Maine Department of Corrections facility for violating probation stemming from an October 2003 conviction.

Dubois was convicted on Oct. 27, 2003, of terrorizing a woman, and for violating conditions of release. He was placed on two years probation.

He violated that probation on July 8, 2004, when Rumford Patrolman Peter Casey arrested Dubois on charges of assault and terrorizing for allegedly attacking and threatening to murder the same woman. He was indicted by an Oxford County grand jury.

“He threatened to kill her, smashed the phone and physically and verbally assaulted her,” Casey stated. The woman sought treatment at Rumford Hospital.

Dubois pleaded guilty to the July 8 charges of assault and obstructing report of a crime or injury; other charges, of assault and terrorizing, from a similar July 7 incident were dismissed in a plea bargain.

He was sentenced on Sept. 7 to 30 days in the Oxford County Jail on the obstructing charge, and two years in prison on the assault charge; the prison sentence was suspended and he was given two years probation.

However, his new sentence is to be served after the 14-month prison sentence he received Tuesday.

Dubois was previously convicted of assault on Aug. 7, 2001, and of sexual abuse of a minor on Nov. 25, 1997, both in Rumford District Court. At that time he was living in Rumford.

He was living in Colebrook, N.H., when his probation was revoked on July 11, 2004.
