## Resource

Forty-year-old Victor Arrington is sentenced to life without parole for a 2015 murder that went horribly wrong when he and two others broke into the wrong apartment on Harvard Street in Dorchester. What began as a botched robbery turned into a brutal attack: victims Richard Long and his fiancée were tied up, stabbed, shot in the head, doused in bleach, and the kitchen set ablaze—Long died instantly. His fiancée survived, rescued their baby, and escaped. Arrington, arrested in 2016, had previously faced a mistrial in 2024. This time, prosecutors used damning iPhone location data to prove his presence at the scene. A third suspect died before charges, while James Boyd is expected to plead guilty soon. This case isn’t just about justice for the victims—it’s a landmark moment in digital forensics reshaping how courts hold perpetrators accountable.
