Treehouse murder trial: Julia Enright’s boyfriend, Jonathan Lind, charged with helping dispose of body
Nearly two weeks after a jury found 24-year-old Julia Enright guilty of second-degree murder in the stabbing of Brandon Chicklis, another arrest has been made.
Enright’s boyfriend, Jonathan Lind, has been arrested and charged in connection with the disposal of Chicklis’ body.
Lind has been arrested by State Police Detectives assigned to the Worcester County District Attorney’s office with the assistance of Ashburnham police on charges of disinterring or conveying away a human body and accessory after the fact in relation to the killing of Chicklis, according to a statement from the Worcester District Attorney’s office.
He is being held at the Worcester County House of Corrections on $25,000 cash bail and is expected to be arraigned Monday in Winchendon District Court, the statement said.
Chicklis had dated Enright in high school and Enright admitted the two met up on the day he was murdered.
Prosecutors said Enright killed Chicklis as a surprise gift for Lind.
Chicklis’ body was found by a jogger on July 10, 2018, in a state of decomposition on the side of Route 119 in Rindge.
His remains were wrapped in a blanket, a tarp, and a beige canvas sheet, medical examiner Jennie Duval testified early into the trial, as well as placed into garbage bags that were duct-taped. A shirt with his remains had 12 slit marks.
