Jonathan Lind, the boyfriend of the Ashburnham woman recently convicted of murdering Brandon Chicklis of Westminster, has been arrested and charged in connection with allegations he helped dispose of the mans body.

Lind is charged in Winchendon District Court with felony counts of accessory after the fact and disinterring a body, electronic court records show.

Lindsay Corcoran, communications director for Worcester District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr., confirmedFriday evening that Lind was arrested by state police detectives assigned to Early's office with assistance from Ashburnham Police.

Lind is being held on $25,000 cash bail at the Worcester County House of Corrections, Corcoran said, and is expected to be arraigned Monday in Winchendon District Court.

Reached by phone Friday evening, Linds lawyer, Kevin C. Larson, noted his client has never fled despite being aware of the suspicion against him.

Hes known about these allegations, he denies them, and we look forward to defending them in court," Larson said.

Linds girlfriend, Julia Enright, was convicted of Chicklis murder Nov. 29 following a two-week jury trial in Worcester Superior Court.

Enright took the stand in her own defense, and testified that she went to Linds home after the June 23, 2018killing and enlisted his help in disposing of Chicklis body.

Chicklis largely skeletonized remains were found 17 days later off the side of a highway in Rindge, New Hampshire.

State police during Enrights trial said that location data for Linds phone indicated it traveled back and forth between the Ashburnham and Rindge areas multiple times between June 23 and June 24.

Lind, at a hearing prior to Enright's trial, indicated he would exercise his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination if called to the stand.

A judge found his right was properly invokedand he was not called at the trial.

Enright was convicted of second-degree murder, with a jury rejecting her claim of self-defense also ruling that the first-degree charge levied by prosecutors had not been proven beyond reasonable doubt.

Enright is scheduledto be sentenced Jan. 18.
