A Beverly woman accused of stealing her ex-boyfriend's truck from a tavern and asking a friend to "dispose" of it is facing 18 months in prison after a grand jury returned indictments Monday.

The man who allegedly disposed of the truck is facing 7 1/2 years in prison for his role in the incident.

Diane F. Martin, 54, of 284 Stouts Lane, and Kevin R. Tuthill, 53, of 4455 Stouts Lane, Beverly, are charged in connection with the July 31 theft and destruction of Lloyd Jeffers' 1983 Ford Explorer. They were among 38 people named in indictments returned Monday by a Washington County grand jury.

Assistant Washington County Prosecutor Ray Dugger said Martin encountered her ex-boyfriend at a tavern in Beverly, became upset, went to leave and noticed the keys had been left in the ignition of his truck.

"She took the truck to (Tuthill) and asked him to dispose of it," Dugger said. "He drove it out an old oil well road and rolled it over an embankment."

Dugger said Tuthill has shown no remorse.

"When interviewed (by police), he said a friend had asked him to do a favor, that he wasn't sorry and he would do it again," Dugger said.

Martin is charged with fourth-degree felony grand theft of a motor vehicle. Tuthill is charged with fourth-degree complicity to commit grand theft of a motor vehicle, fourth-degree receiving stolen property and third-degree felony tampering with evidence.
