Supreme Judicial Court of Maine

1Opinion of the CourtSaufley, C.J.

[¶ 1] Twenty-year-old Romeo Parent was killed in April 2013. He had been stabbed in the back of the neck, beaten, and choked. William True was charged with, and found guilty by a jury of, the intentional or knowing, or depraved indifference murder of Parent. 1 True appeals from the judgment of conviction entered by the court (MG Kennedy, J.). See 17-A M.R.S. § 201(1)(A), (B) (2015). He argues that the judgment should be vacated because he was deprived of a fail- trial due to allegedly perjured testimony from certain of the State’s witnesses. We affirm the judgment.
