Judge bars man from possessing porn or panties

By BETTY ADAMS

 

AUGUSTA - A 23-year-old Albion man will have to avoid shopping at stores like Victoria's Secret for the next six years, under a unique probation arrangement.

 

Nicolas R. Leathers, 23, who was released from Kennebec County Jail on Thursday after completing a sentence for burglary, is banned from using and possessing women's underwear as a condition of his probation.

"It's because of his offense history," said Deputy District Attorney Alan Kelley. "In another case, he entered a residence in Albion and took women's underwear."

 

Court records show that, in 2004, Leathers was accused of taking a man's thong, and admitted taking tampons and other items from a neighbor's home in Albion.

 

At a Kennebec County Superior Court hearing Thursday before Justice Nancy Mills, Leathers was sentenced to a suspended five-year jail term and three years probation for burglarizing a camp in Albion in 2005, damaging some items and stealing others.

Leathers was charged with that burglary while on probation for having unlawful sexual contact with children. As a result, he was ordered to serve 16 months of the suspended portion of the sentence for the sex offense. With credit for time served, he was released from jail on Thursday.

 

Kelley said the new sentence will keep Leathers under state supervision for six years. If Leathers violates probation, he can be ordered to serve the full five years for the burglary, plus another year that was suspended in the previous case.

Other probation conditions added Thursday bar Leathers from the use and possession of sexually explicit material and pornography and order him to participate in a psychological evaluation once he is released from custody. He is subject to search for female undergarments, sexually explicit material and pornography (including computers). Leathers also must abide by a 7 p.m. curfew unless his therapist and probation officer decide otherwise.

 

The conditions were requested by Jeffrey Furlong, Leathers' probation officer.

 

Leathers already was banned from unsupervised contact with children under 16 and with three individuals named as victims in the sex offenses in 2004.

 

"Mr. Leathers has some mental health issues as is typical in the court system, and the tough thing is he was previously convicted for sex offenses," said Kevin Sullivan, Leathers' attorney. "Once somebody commits a crime that gets him on the (Maine Sex Offender) registry, the help doesn't exist. People like Nicolas need help and it's not available. They're the outcasts of society."

The camp burglary was reported May 27, 2005, when the owner returned for the season. Kelley said Leathers took a television, VCR, tapes, and pillows as well as a mattress and box spring, which he threw into a nearby river. He was ordered to pay $2,668 in restitution.
