Police: Eliot Cutler Arrested After Porn DVDs Found at Hotel as State Moves to Revoke Probation

Police say the discovery of pornographic DVDs at a South Portland hotel triggered a move to revoke his probation.

Overview

  • Maine State Police Special Victims Unit encountered Cutler at the DoubleTree in South Portland during unrelated work and arrested him after consulting his probation officer.
  • A police report says he had a new DVD player, 10 pornographic DVDs featuring adult women, and a Walmart receipt, and he is barred from possessing pornography under his probation conditions.
  • The state has sought to revoke his probation, and he is being held on a probation hold at the Cumberland County Jail.
  • Cutler is scheduled to appear in Hancock County court at 1 p.m. Wednesday in Ellsworth, according to his attorney and newly released documents.
  • This is his third alleged probation violation in roughly six months, following a September 2025 incident tied to an escort site and late-December and Jan. 2 internet searches that led a judge to raise bail and warn he was “at the end of the runway,” with some explicit materials in prior filings sealed by a judge.
