BANGOR – A local woman was sentenced Monday in Penobscot County Superior Court to five years in prison with all but six months suspended for her part in a series of burglaries last summer in Hampden.

Kylie Husson, 20, also was sentenced to three years’ probation and ordered to pay more than $8,000 in restitution after pleading guilty to five counts of burglary.

Her partner, Charles Walter Fling Jr., 26, of Milford and Millinocket, was sentenced in December to six years in prison with all but 21/2 years suspended and three years’ probation for his part in the burglaries. He pleaded guilty to two counts of burglary, criminal threatening and receiving stolen property.

The couple stole items from homes to sell for drugs, said Assistant District Attorney Greg Campbell.

“Both had substance abuse issues,” Campbell said after the hearing. “She has taken significant steps in getting treatment.”

They were arrested on July 6 after separately breaking into houses on the Old County and Perry roads. Husson was arrested after she showed up with her infant daughter and stolen items in a car two miles away from where police were arresting Fling for breaking into another home.

Hampden police recovered cameras, construction tools, copper piping and a complete set of monogrammed sterling silver.

Husson insisted that she had committed most of the burglaries, so she was ordered to pay $8,468 in restitution, Campbell said Monday.
