ALFRED — Two juries today will begin separate deliberations in the trials of a married couple who owned a Kittery redemption center and are accused of stealing about $10,000 in refunds and handling fees on beverage containers bought out of state as if they were bought in Maine.

The state is trying to prove that Megan and Thomas Woodard knowingly accepted out-of-state containers to collect the handling fee of 3 or 3.5 cents per container.
