Quincy Man Found Guilty Of Murder

QUINCY, MA — A Quincy man has been found guilty of killing a person in an unprovoked attack at a city barroom in 2015.

Paul J. Fahey , 43, was convicted of second degree murder in the death of 42-year-old of Keith W. Boudreau. The conviction comes after a one-week trial and two hours of deliberation, according to the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office.

“The witnesses in the bar that day made it very clear that this attack was entirely unprovoked. The witnesses saw as he struck Boudreau, sending him to the ground, and then stomped on him while he was on the ground,” District Attorney Michael Morrissey said in a release. “He was immediately hospitalized and died on April 3.”

The mandatory sentence for murder in the second degree is life in prison with eligibility for parole after 15 years.

Formal sentencing is set for 9 a.m. on May 18.
