Description

The respondent was indicted for a violation of the provisions of R. S. 1930, Chap. 133, Sec. 5. The indictment is in three counts. The first alleges the acceptance by the respondent, Vallee, who was a county commissioner of Androscoggin County, of a promise by one St. Pierre to pay Vallee five dollars a week during the time that St. Pierre should be acting as janitor in the county building, the said St. Pierre knowing that the respondent was a county commissioner and having the intent to influence his action in the matter of employing St. Pierre as a janitor, a matter which was to come before the respondent in his official capacity, the said respondent having the intent under the influence of said promise to vote for St. Pierre as janitor. The second count sets forth the same corrupt agreement and charges that the respondent in discharge of it did accept from St. Pierre on June 12, 1935 and on divers other days and times while he was acting as janitor of said building the sum of five dollars in pursuance of the corrupt agreement. The third count charges that the respondent on said date and at divers other times did accept the sum of five dollars from St. Pierre in consideration of which payment having the intent to keep by his vote the said St. Pierre in the employment of the County of Androscoggin as janitor. Demurrers were filed to this indictment which were overruled and on exceptions being taken to this court all counts in the indictment were held good. State v. Vallee, 136 Me. 432, 12 A.2d 421.
