Woburn, MA: Framingham man to be sentenced for twice trying to kill

WOBURN — A Massachusetts man is set to be sentenced for twice trying to kill his ex-girlfriend and repeatedly abusing family pets.

Montiero Green, of Framingham, was convicted last month of 19 domestic violence charges, including two counts of attempted murder, multiple assault charges, stalking, witness intimidation and animal cruelty.

Prosecutors said the 36-year-old Green regularly beat his ex-girlfriend and sometimes choked her until she lost consciousness. They said he also killed the family cat and beat two family dogs.

The jury cleared Green of three other charges of abusing his current girlfriend, including one count of attempted murder and two counts of assault and battery.

Green is scheduled to be sentenced Monday in Middlesex Superior Court.
