Preppy Party 'Stabber' Fights Charges in Deadly High School Bloodbath

A jury acquitted Raul Valle of murder and intentional manslaughter in the 2022 stabbing death of James “Jimmy” McGrath. Valle, 16 at the time of 17-year-old McGrath’s death, attended St. Joseph High School in Trumbull, Connecticut, and McGrath attended Fairfield Prep.

Now, Valle’s attorney is fighting for his freedom, pushing for the refiled charges to be dismissed. Court TV’s Vinnie Politan Investigates. MORE
