MALDEN, MA — One of two men serving life in prison for the murder of an Army Ranger from Stoneham will not get a new trial. The state Supreme Judicial Court upheld the first degree murder conviction of Eugene Tate, who filed an appeal alleging prejudicial error on behalf of the prosecution.

Tate, who was 19 years old at the time of the murder in 2013, also argued his conviction should be reduced to murder in the second degree or voluntary manslaughter based on self-defense.  https://patch.com/massachusetts/malden/malden-mans-murder-conviction-upheld-death-stoneham-vet
