CARIBOU – An Oakfield man, convicted of attempting to run down a high school student a year ago in Dyer Brook, has been ordered back to prison after sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl.

Jody Boutilier, 19, was ordered to serve 18 months in prison after a Superior Court judge found that the defendant had violated his probation by when he assaulted the girl.

The defendant was sentenced by Justice Paul T. Pierson in Aroostook County Superior Court in Caribou.

Boutilier also was sentenced Thursday for the gross sexual assault to five years in prison, with all but 18 months suspended, and probation for six years, according to court records. The 18-month sentence for violating probation will be served concurrently.

The assault occurred during a party earlier this year, according to court records.

Boutilier was initially charged with attempted murder when he attempted to run down David Crandall with his vehicle in March 2000.

The charge was lowered to reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon, and he was sentenced to eight years in jail, with all but six months suspended, and four years of probation.

Although Crandall was not injured in the incident, Boutilier crashed into the Southern Aroostook Community School, causing significant damage.

Attorney Jefferson Ashby of Presque Isle represented Boutilier during the hearing, and Assistant Aroostook County District Attorney Suzanne Lilley of Houlton represented the state.
