Julia Enright (24), a dominatrix and phlebotomist, is currently on trial in Massachusetts. She was accused of the 2018 murder (left) of Brandon Chiklis (20 (right).
Louis Badwey (defense attorney) stated Monday in his opening statements that Enright attacked Chiklis 12 times for self-defense following a failed attempt to rape her
Enright was captured in the late afternoon of July 2018. This was two weeks after Chiklis’s body was found in Rindge (New Hampshire), by a jogger not far from Massachusetts. Enright had been gone for over two weeks.
Chiklis’ autopsy revealed that he had been repeatedly stabbed. After being wrapped up in a blanket, Chiklis was stuffed into two trash bags and left on the curb.
First Assistant District Attorney Jeffrey Travers told jurors on Monday Enright killed Chiklis, who was her former schoolmate and boyfriend, as a ‘surprise’ for her new boyfriend, John Lind, who then allegedly helped her dispose of the victim’s body, reported Telegram & Gazette.
Enright, according to Enright’s prosecution statement, texted Lind just before June 23, 2018 killing.
Enright then allegedly called Chiklis, inviting him to stay at the treehouse that day.
Chiklis was stabbed by Enright in Ashburnham’s treehouse after he invited him to have sex.
Enright, who was alleged to be obsessed with cutting and “blood play,” killed Chiklis in order to surprise her boyfriend.
Enright, who allegedly killed Chiklis after he was found dead, enlisted the help of her boyfriend to get rid of him and create an alibi.
Prosecutors stated that Enright was a phlebotomist who also worked as a dominatrix and obsessed with sexual cutting. They also claimed Enright created art from animal bones.
Chicklis last saw alive eight days prior to Enright’s alleged attempt to bribe employees at Planned Parenthood to give her an aborted foetus to play with its bones.
Further searches of Enright’s house yielded several vials full of blood, various animal carcasses in different states of decay, and a bucket with organs.
On the first day of Enright’s murder trial, her defense attorney, Louis Badwey, told jurors that his client had invited Chiklis to the treehouse to have sex with him, but then changed her mind when her new boyfriend texted her.
Chicklis is accused of digitally infiltrating Enright, ignoring her pleas for help.
The lawyer said that Enright closed her eyes, then repeatedly stabbed Chiklis using the knife she had always had with her.
Badwey said that the woman fled from Chiklis’ treehouse not knowing if Chiklis was still alive or dead.
Lind was later called upon to help her cover up the crime.
Lind was not charged with the murder of Chiklis. If called upon to testify, he was to invoke the Fifth Amendment right to self-incrimination.
MassLive reported that Enright, who was accused of killing Chiklis in her home, went to her house and got her clean. She then had sushi with Lind. It is believed they concocted an excuse for Enright.
Hours after his death, Enright left several messages on Chiklis’ phone. She still had the device.
The first text, sent at 8pm on June 23, read: ‘why didn’t you show up to meet me?’
Enright sent Chiklis a series of text messages asking Chiklis why he didn’t come to her house and if he was okay. According to the victim, her phone was in her possession.
Chiklis’ body wrapped in a comforter and trash bags was found two weeks after his killing near the New Hampshire-Massachusetts border
Prosecutors claimed Enright texted the victim several days later asking him if he was okay.
Travers stated that the messages were meant, in a forward-looking manner, to provide information about her whereabouts, if her attention was drawn to her.
According to the prosecutor, Enright stabbed Chiklis to death as a ‘surprise gift’ for Lind.
She wrote just days later in her journal, that her boyfriend might not like her surprise.
Expect the murder trial to last for at most two weeks.
