Gage was in Boston at the time this is true but he was not in the Massacre nor did he participate in the trial (at least nothing that affected it)
Preston wasin it however
At this time he was a captain not a general. Captain Preston was tried in court for giving the order to open fire. Though thanks to John Adams defence Preston was found not guilty
