The “social host” law in the state punishes those who allow minors to drink on their property with up to one year in prison and a $2,000 fine. Believing that he had a strong “social host” case against party host Nathanial Berberian, Northborough Police Chief Mark Leahy asked Worcester District Attorney John Conte to release the results of the toxicology tests conducted as part of the victims’ autopsies to his department...
