LUDLOW — Tyler Pollender-Savery, 28, of Ludlow, was sentenced yesterday in the United States District Court in Rutland to a time-served sentence following his guilty plea to possessing firearms while being an unlawful user of controlled substances.
Chief United States District Judge Geoffrey W. Crawford also ordered Pollender-Savery to serve two years of supervised release.
Court records indicate that on December 10, 2018, Pollender-Savery was arrested and charged in state court in Windsor County with second-degree murder in connection with the homicide of an infant.
However, he was acquitted of these charges following a jury trial in October 2022.
As part of the investigation into the homicide, law enforcement searched Pollender-Savery’s residence and recovered nine firearms belonging to him.
Investigation further established that Pollender-Savery used both cocaine and marijuana in and around the time he possessed these firearms, and that he had assaulted someone with a firearm while using controlled substances.
The case was investigated by the Vermont State Police.
