A 23-year-old man has been convicted in Suffolk Superior Court of first-degree murder in the May 15, 2007, slaying of another young man in the Franklin Field housing development.
Jovon Adams of Dorchester was convicted in the killing of Cordeiro Andrade, 20, of Roxbury. Adams also was convicted of the nonfatal shooting of a 27-year-old woman during the same incident, and pointing a gun at another woman's head a day earlier, the Suffolk district attorney's office said in a statement.
Adams and Taquise Johnson, 19, of Roxbury were identified by investigators as Andrade's killers last year, prosecutors said. Johnson, who is being held without bail, will be tried at a later date.

u deserve to rot in prison
We are coming for the appeal. Unjust verdict... So many people are dying on these streets, the jails, sorry to say are preserving my generation as well as my childrens father. Even though he was clearly convicted on heirsay and no physical evidence, I'll put my faith in the system again and pray for justice for my family in the appeal
