A Suffolk Superior Court jury today convicted Reginald Holley and Oasis Pritchett of first-degree murder for the Oct. 17, 2012 death of Alfonso Rivas in a Lyndhurst Street apartment, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.
The verdict means a mandatory sentence of life in prison without parole.
Prosecutors convinced the jury that Holley, 24, and Pritchett, 23, both of Roxbury, planned to rob Rivas of the marijuana they had allegedly arranged to buy from him.
