Prosecutors have dropped charges against a Warren woman accused of theft and desecrating a grave.

Alyssa Lamountain, 20, of 6 Greenhouse Court, was arrested Tuesday, August 10 after Warren police said she stole two headstones from a Warren cemetery. Though Warren police did not find the stones during a search at her home, Deputy Warren Police Chief Joseph Loiselle said they were uncovered later at a different location.

However, prosecutors cited insufficient evidence as their reason for declining to go forward with the felony charges, Deputy Chief Loiselle said this week.

Ms. Lamountain’s arrest came as the state was in a furor over her boyfriend, convicted cat killer Anthony Stravato. When the East Providence resident was released from the ACI in July, DEM officials sent out a statewide notice asking animal hospital and shelter workers to be on the lookout for both him and Ms. Lamountain, and to not adopt animals to either.

Ms. Lamountain was arrested a few days later, after police received a report that several headstones had been stolen from the South Burial Ground in Warren. Police obtained a warrant and searched her home on Tuesday, Augutst 10. Deputy Chief Loiselle said officers found severed cat paws and other bones, though the stones were recovered at another location.

She was charged with felony desecration of a grave and larceny under $1,500.
