$25,000 reward posted for information about the murder of a Northeastern student
The family of Rebecca Payne, Northeastern University and Legal Seafood have put up the reward for information that leads police to her killer, Boston Police report.
Payne, a Northeastern student who worked at Legal, was found shot to death in her Parker Hill Avenue apartment early on May 20.
"We know that there are people who have valuable information, so we ask individuals to look deep into their hearts and help us bring the person responsible for this horrible and senseless act to justice," said Rebecca's father, Nicholas Payne.

Davis said come Sunday night, police will be on every corner near college areas.
That's a lot of corners, from Brighton to downtown.

Prediction: By the year 2030, all of Allston/Brighton, Fenway, Roxbury and the South End will be college campuses

Meanwhile, over in Roxbury, Northeastern and residents are towning and gowning like nobody's business: Chris Lovett reports on a hearing on how the Boston Redevelopment Authority let Northeastern take over a subsidized-housing project on the South End/Roxbury line. While the university says it thinks it can let it remain as is until 2023, nobody seems convinced:
Said (Councilor Sam) Yoon, "I want residents to go home tonight feeling they're going to be OK, for at least three months."
