He is also charged with two counts of first-degree murder and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm.</p> <p>McGregor, 25, of Dorchester, and Montgomery, 28, of Medford, were shot early on January 27, 2014 outside 92 Rosewood St. in Mattapan.

Montgomery had a son and a family friend recalled her  as a sweet woman who was trying to improve her life. Her ex-boyfriend had been killed in Ashmont just hours before Montgomery was shot. Police believed the shootings to be gang-related.</p> <p>According to the Suffolk County District Attorney's office, all three suspects have served time in prison for gun-related convictions in 2008 or 2009.</p> <p>Investigators identified Stephen, Evans and Jones as suspects through ballistics evidence at the scene, witness statements, cell tower records and other evidence gathered over the past two years, according to the DA's office. The two victims were targeted, according to prosecutors and police.</p> <p>Stephen and Evans are set to return to court on May 31. Jones' arraignment date in Boston has yet to be scheduled, as an unrelated gunshot injury he sustained last year may impact his ability to travel, according to the DA's statement.</p> Gail WaterhouseTue, 10 May 2016 23:53:01 -0400http://boston.homicidewatch.org/2016/05/10/three-men-charged-with-murder-for-2014-mattapan-double-murder/Clarence McGregorTeasia S.
