Welcome to Boston Confidential, Bean Towns True Crime Podcast.

Boston is a great city, but there's more to it than the Freedom Trail in Fenway Park.

There's a startling underbelly to the city, and Boston Confidential will take you on a guided tour of the hub of the universe, Boston, Massachusetts.

All right, guys, welcome back to Boston Confidential.

Just a bit of good news.

Edward Alamani, the person who killed Amy Lord in 2013, his conviction has just been upheld by the

Massachusetts judicial Supreme Court. One of the reasons that the case was up for appeal, the defense, Edward Alamani side,

said that the prosecutor humanized Amy Lord too much, and the SJC, the judicial Supreme Court

stated that at times the prosecutor may have went a little overboard, but they do have a right

to humanize the defendant. And the case will not be overturned on appeal. He will not be granted

a new trial. And the SJAC went on to say there's so much other evidence that that just simply

wouldn't have mattered. There's forensics, there's identifications.

This guy is guilty as the day is long.

And he is going to serve his life sentence without parole.

So that's good news, right?

And if you remember from back in 2013, this was just a horror show.

Edward Allen, he had went on a 24-hour crime spree against women. He ran into people coming out of their homes, trying to rape them, pull them away,

and finally he ends up with Amy Lorde, who is coming out of her apartment, and he puts her in her car and forces her to drive to

five ATMs around the city of Boston.
