A year ago this past Wednesday, 17-year-old Framingham High student Jamoan James was driving a 2003 Dodge Intrepid on Southville Road when it allegedly was forced off the road by a 1998 Chevy Lumina. The Intrepid hit a tree and James died.
Exactly one year after the wreck, a judge in Worcester on Wednesday upheld the murder indictment against a passenger in the Lumina.
According to the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, prosecutors say the crash was the result of a drug deal gone bad. Murder charges have been brought against both the driver and a passenger in the Lumina. The cases against both continue today.
