Suffolk.     October 11, 2012.  ‑  March 4, 2013. Present:  Graham, Vuono, & Hanlon, JJ.   Breaking and Entering.  Burglarious Implements.  Destruction of Property.  Malicious Injury to Property.  Malice.  Evidence, Hearsay, State of police knowledge.  Constitutional Law, Confrontation of witnesses.  Practice, Criminal, Hearsay, Confrontation of witnesses, Instructions to jury.       Complaint received and sworn to in the Dorchester Division of the Boston Municipal Court Department on October 26, 2010.   The case was tried before Robert E.
