South Portland Police Beat: May 27 | The Forecaster
5/18 at 6:32 p.m. Megan Waterman, 21, of Portland, was summonsed on Maine Mall Road by Officer Scott Corbett on charges of theft by unauthorized taking and sale and used of drug paraphernalia.
 
Cruz was arrested for criminal threatening on the Tuesday before June 17th, 2010...in Maine. So apparently after MW went missing, he went back to Maine.
http://www.pressherald.com/news/police-hunt-for-missing-maine-mother_2010-06-17.html

"It's not just a case of Megan just wanting to get away from her boyfriend" and be by herself, Seavey said. "She'd never do that to her daughter -- never."

Cruz could not be reached for comment.

He was arrested in Portland on Tuesday night and charged with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon.

Cruz confronted a woman whose car tires had been slashed and told her, "You better stop talking about me or I'll kill you" before slashing the car's other two tires, said police Lt. Gary Rogers.

Police did not release the name of the victim.

Last month, Cruz was arrested in South Portland on a charge of aggravated drug trafficking, along with two other men from Brooklyn and one from Portland.

Hasn't been very good stretch of time for AC has it?

he was arrested May, 2010
his (ahem cough cough) girlfriend goes missing in Long Island
June 6, 2010
he was arrested June 15, 2010
and wasn't it August 2010 that he was put in prison in Maine for the drug trafficking? And then shipped down to Brooklyn to do prison time for gun trafficking, drug trafficking and now sex trafficking? And he has been in prison SINCE THEN? And he's only 23.

It states that she worked in a barber shop. Does anyone know if this is acually true or not. What is the name and location of this barber shop. Maybe thats whete she met the killer. I think its worth checking into.

Here's an article where Lynn Barthelemy says that Melissa worked in a barber shop.

http://bangordailynews.com/2011/01/28/news/sister-called-from-missing-prostitutes-phone/

This same article provides us with more information about the convict who ended up with one of Melissa's phones.

They also discovered another phone once belonging to Barthelemy and tracked it to a convict who said he picked up the phone after she dropped it in a fight with another woman. Authorities in New York also located Barthelemy’s pimp, who corroborated the man’s story, saying he had ordered the other woman to fight Barthelemy because he was upset she had been seeking clients on her own, the official said.

 
Mountain Kat, I wonder if MB worked in salon at all. She may have told her mother this to cover up what she was really doing.

Autopsy performed on Portland homicide victim
After a man is fatally shot at 55 Allen Ave., neighbors say the area has become home to late-night fighting.

By Melanie Creamer mcreamer@mainetoday.com
Staff Writer

PORTLAND — Portland police continue to try to determine what connection a homicide victim has to the city, and what he was doing Saturday night just before he was killed.


Two Portland police officers are posted outside the entrances to 55 Allen Ave. on Sunday morning after a 22-year-old man was shot to death there earlier.

Melanie Creamer/Staff Writer
An autopsy has been performed on the 22-year-old New York man, but the State Medical Examiner has not confirmed his identity yet.

The man was found in an Allen Avenue apartment around 3:30 a.m. Sunday with a fatal gunshot wound.

Police are seeking any witnesses to the shooting or anyone who might have information about the case. Anyone with information is asked to call 874-8533.

12:20 a.m.

PORTLAND - A 22-year-old man from New York was shot and killed early Sunday at an apartment complex where he was living on Allen Avenue. Police are characterizing the shooting as a homicide.

Portland police responded to a 911 caller who reported one person had been shot at 55 Allen Ave. around 3:40 a.m.

Maine asks arrest for boyfriend of missing escort in unrelated charges

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — The boyfriend of Maine woman who had advertised as an escort on Craigslist and who went missing in New York is now wanted by police on charges unrelated to her disappearance. WMTW-TV says the warrant for Akeem Cruz was issued Thursday after he failed to appear...

Akeem is arrested in a hotel again for drug charges:

"According to the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency, agents seized 13 grams of suspected crack cocaine base that was packaged for sale and had an estimated street value of $1,300. Agents also seized $564 in cash.

Cruz was free on bail on charges of criminal threatening and criminal mischief arising from an incident in Portland in June.

Cruz is being held without bail in the Cumberland County Jail." http://www.pressherald.com/news/boy...aces-drug-trafficking-charges_2010-08-12.html

Then, of course, we know he had to report to NY for the Federal Promoting Prostitution charge. He was convicted by year's end 2012.

Still looking for other arrest but so far it looks like AC was arrested in several times in the three months surrounding Megan's disappearance.
 
More on the shooting that occurred next door to the location where June15, 2010 AC was arrested for criminal threatening. The murder victim (JULY 2010) was identified as 22 year old Taquan Samuels, of Brooklyn, N.Y. He had only lived there a for several weeks.
http://www.theforecaster.net/content/p-allenaveshooting-072810

Kind of makes you wonder if he was known to AC.
 
Did a little research on the 55 Allen street murder victim...a memorial set up has a Carolina blue bandana, and notes re: RIP LOC. Apparently, that color and the LOC reference can be tracked back to the Cr!p$. LOC refers to the Leader or leader-type member. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=LOC

I recently had a conversation with Megan's mom and she told me Megan was in that hotel room with Akeem with all the weapons and drugs but she got scared by them and called her grandmother to pick her up. Not long after the cops came. That was May 20th. That crew spent 5 days in jail and then headed to NY - with Megan. Megan had been in that Holiday Inn room the entire week leading up to the day of her disappearance on June 5th.

Now the police reports say the cops smelled marijuana and that's why they entered but what's to say these guys didn't believe Megan ratted them out since she conveniently missed being there when the cops came. Esp since she had just had contact with police for drug paraphernalia 2 days prior.

I believe Vashawn Brown who was arrested with Akeem was gunned down the following Nov:

Field Notes,
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
We know pimps use women for their own personal gain.
They don't love them.
A man would not act like a pimp to a woman he loved.
But a sociopath would be able to pimp out a woman who loved him.
These sociopaths can be extremely charming and tell a woman what she needs to hear.
They are experts at manipulation and dominance and breaking a woman down until she is trapped in the cycle of abuse which involves the honeymoon phase.
But when his income resource becomes a problem for him, what does he do?
He finds another one. there is no shortage of vulnerable young women out there.
I know you know this, i just had to express it to those who question why a pimp would kill or have someone else kill his money maker.
