Jury convicts Fall River man of murder in 2022 Providence shooting

A 22-year-old Fall River man was found guilty this week of a 2022 shooting in Providence that left one man dead and another injured.

 

Following a 10-day trial in Providence County Superior Court, a jury found Fall River resident Je’avonie Dorvil guilty of one count of second-degree murder, two counts of discharging a firearm while committing a crime of violence, one count of assault with a dangerous weapon resulting in serious bodily injury, one count of carrying a pistol without a license, and one count of possession of a stolen firearm.

 

“I hope this conviction provides the victims and their families some measure of peace, and I hope it deters others from committing similar acts of violence,” R.I. Attorney General Peter Neronha said.
