Edwin Alemany found guilty of first-degree murder in Amy Lord case
A jury has found Edwin Alemany guilty of first-degree murder and kidnapping in the killing of Amy Lord, rejecting his insanity defense in the South Boston woman’s death.
Prosecutors say Alemany kidnapped Lord and forced her to withdraw hundreds of dollars from five different ATMs in Dorchester and South Boston before stabbing her to death and dumping her body in Hyde Park’s Stony Brook reservation. Alemany is also facing charges of assaulting two other women that day in July, 2013.
Alemany was found guilty in Suffolk Superior Court on all charges except one — assault with intent to rape.
