PORTSMOUTH — A woman who threw a pint of ice cream through a store window after a clerk refused to sell her beer was fined and given a suspended jail sentence Monday.

Jamie Cahill, 26, most recently of Portland, Maine, pleaded guilty in Portsmouth District Court to a class A misdemeanor count of criminal mischief. Prosecutor Rena DiLando told the court that Cahill went to the convenience store at Heath’s Mobil in Sept. of 2007, when a clerk refused to sell her beer, then she purchased ice cream.

After Cahill left the store, the pint of ice cream was thrown through a plate glass store window, according to police.

DiLando said Cahill is on probation in Maine for drug convictions and according to her probation officer, has been “doing excellent.” According to court documents, Cahill’s case was delayed at her request while she was in a rehab program.

In exchange for her guilty plea, Judge Sawako Gardner sentenced Cahill to 60 days in the Rockingham County House of Corrections, with all of it suspended providing she remain of good behavior for one year. Cahill was also fined $500, with half suspended, contingent on the same year of good behavior.

Cahill is also ordered to pay restitution for damage to the store window if the prosecution determines it is necessary within 30 days.
