Who polices Pomfret
Pomfret has no town police department and is covered by Connecticut State Police Troop D, so arrests here are made by state troopers.
Whether the arrest came out of a traffic stop or a call somewhere in town, the troop holds the paperwork and answers the question a family actually has on the night, which is whether the person is still being held and what the bond is.
Where your case goes
Pomfret cases go to Danielson Superior Court, GA 11, a short way southeast at 120 School Street. The court page has the parking and the docket.
Released, you come back on the date you were given. Held, you are taken to court the next business day.
After the arrest
The bond decides whether the night ends at home. Troopers release you on a promise to appear or once it is posted; failing that you stay until court the next business day. Booking is on the arrest page, the bond on the bond and bail page.
Do not explain the incident to the trooper or to anyone else, and do not treat a custody call as private.
A family violence arrest reaches court the next business day regardless, with a protective order handed down there. The arraignment page explains that first date and the what to expect page explains the case around it.
Common charges in Pomfret
The Pomfret docket at GA 11 is small and covers DUI, drug possession, assault, domestic violence and family violence, and larceny and shoplifting. On a first offense the realistic aim is a diversionary program that ends the case in a dismissal.
