Thomas Preston’s Dilemma
On March 5, 1770, an incident happened in the Town House Area of Boston. ... Captain Thomas Preston, the leader of the Boston soldiers involved in the massacre, was accused of murder and brought to trail. Thomas Preston was innocent because there was not enough evidence present to blame the deaths on him; he was merely an officer trying to preserve the wellness of his soldiers, and it was evident that he did not give the order to open fire. ... The crowd was throwing snow and waving their weapons fiercely at the guards, and the situation put Preston in a difficult dilemma. ...
It would have been unjust to find Thomas Preston guilty for murder.
