PRESS RELEASE November 13, 2014 The Stamford Police Department, Property Crime Division, arrested Robert Aillery, 58 years old of 84 Knickerbocker Ave., Stamford, CT. who surrendered himself this morning. Robert Aillery was charged with three counts of Larceny 1st. Degree stemming from an intensive 18 month investigation. The warrant cites Robert Aillery with depriving the City of Stamford, Water Pollution Authority, of income. The warrant states that Robert Aillery, the owner of Stright Septic, dumped septic waste pumped from customer septic systems into City of Stamford’s sewer system and avoided paying disposal fees to the WPCA. The flow of sewage from 84 Knickerbocker was measured by flow meters installed by the WPCA. During the course of the investigation a search warrant was executed at 84 Knickerbocker Ave. and at that time investigators observed a hose hooked to a valve on a septic truck with the other end into a drain leading into the city sewer system. Although only charged with the three counts of larceny this illegal disposal of waste also impacted the neighbors of 84 Knickerbocker with foul odors and backflows into some homes with raw sewage. The investigation began in May of 2013 when the WPCA made a formal complaint regarding Stright’s disposal practices. The investigation was conducted with the expert assistance of the WPCA’s Regulatory Compliance Officer who supplied the investigators with the methodology and expertise required in this complicated and intricate investigation. Robert Aillery is being held on a $150,000.00 court set bond and is scheduled to appear in court this morning for arrangement. The Environmental Crime Unit out of the Chief State’s Attorney Office will be prosecuting this case.
