Irish Festival?

Huge Irish Festival right down the street at Adams Corner yesterday. Any connection?

Irish Festival and murder

Possibly. The Boston.com article mentions the festival and says the victim was a native of Ireland.

Irish Festival was a family event

Last nights murder had as much to do with the Irish Festival as the first twenty one murders in Dorchester did , (NOTHING) The festival was a family event attended by thousands.
May all the victims rest in Peace

How about you learn about and consider the facts rather than just assuming that a particular group doesn't ever have anything to do with crime because they hang out in family groups? Everyone who is a victim or perpetrator of a crime has a family.

what are your sources? can

what are your sources?
can you provide more information?
how can you establish the festival event and the murder are disconnected; perhaps you know what it IS connected to?
