LAWRENCE, Massachusetts: A 15-year-old Massachusetts boy charged with killing a high school classmate whose headless body was found near a river last week is being held without bail.
Mathew Borges was held after pleading not guilty at a brief arraignment on Monday on a first-degree murder charge.
Borges is being charged as an adult, so court proceedings were open.
The body of 16-year-old Lee Manuel Viloria-Paulino was found near the Merrimack River in Lawrence on Thursday by a woman walking her dog.
