Captain Thomas Preston and his men were acquitted of the charges related to the Boston Massacre. The jury found that they acted in self-defense during the incident on March 5, 1770, when British soldiers fired into a crowd, resulting in civilian deaths. The trial highlighted the tense relations between British authorities and American colonists, ultimately contributing to the growing revolutionary sentiment in the colonies.
