A man accused of a murder in Boston last summer that shocked people across the state pleaded not guilty Wednesday to a twenty-count indictment
Edwin Alemany was ordered held without bail after his arraignment in Suffolk Superior Court in Boston for the murder of Wilbraham-native Amy Lord and non-fatal assaults on three other women. Many people in the packed courtroom cried as prosecutor John Pappas outlined the case against Alemany
"The homicide of Amy Lord was savage and brutal, but it was not the beginning or the end of his crime spree."
Alemany allegedly kidnapped Lord, who was 24, as she left her South Boston apartment at 6 AM on July 23. She was forced at knifepoint to withdraw cash at four bank machines before she was taken to a park and killed. Two other women were allegedly attacked by Alemany within hours of Lord’s murder.
