Don't miss the big stories. Like us on Facebook. BENNINGTON â On the evening of July 31, a young man lost consciousness in the bathroom of his home in Sunderland. His mother found him lying on the floor. He was airlifted that same night to Albany Medical Center, where he was taken off life support and declared dead the following day. First responders reported seeing a white powdery substance in the manâs nostrils and around his nose and mouth. They suspected a drug overdose. Doctors at Albany Medical apparently reached the same conclusion. In September, the Bennington County Stateâs Attorneyâs Office charged a Manchester resident, James Pecor, with selling heroin that resulted in the fatal overdose of Travis Winchell. Then last month, the prosecutorâs office dismissed the charge.
