Irish Festival and murder

Possibly. The Boston.com article mentions the festival and says the victim was a native of Ireland.

Irish Festival was a family event

Last nights murder had as much to do with the Irish Festival as the first twenty one murders in Dorchester did , (NOTHING) The festival was a family event attended by thousands.
May all the victims rest in Peace

How about you learn about and consider the facts rather than just assuming that a particular group doesn't ever have anything to do with crime because they hang out in family groups? Everyone who is a victim or perpetrator of a crime has a family.

what are your sources?
can you provide more information?
how can you establish the festival event and the murder are disconnected; perhaps you know what it IS connected to?
