Ashland woman faces forgery, falsifying evidence charges

By THOMAS P. CALDWELL, LACONIA DAILY SUN

HAVERHILL — Dierdre Lutz, 24, of Mechanic Street, Ashland, faces Class B felony charges of forgery and falsifying physical evidence.

A Grafton County Superior Court Grand Jury handed up the indictments during its March session.

She is alleged to have printed counterfeit $20 bills, and then deleted the contents of her cell phone to prevent police from searching its content.

An indictment is not a finding of guilt, but an independent jury’s decision, after hearing from police, that sufficient evidence exists to warrant a court trial.

Also:

• Aimee Parent, 26, of Loon Lake Road, Plymouth, is facing a Class B felony charge for allegedly passing a counterfeit $20 bill at the Irving Circle K in Holderness.
