Show by Real Story Media

Matthew Farwell, a former Stoughton police detective, sat with no visible reaction as a federal jury convicted him of killing Sandra Birchmore and her unborn child. On True Crime Today, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me to talk about how he lives with it, and why the people around Sandra stayed quiet.Prosecutors said Farwell killed Sandra to keep their relationship, which they said began when she was fifteen, from coming out. The FBI says his son was born within about 13 hours of his visit to her apartment, two days before she was found.Shavaun helps me understand why Sandra still wanted a future with him, why his twin brother answered her message about her age with "Nice," why a dispatcher was told to forget a call about Farwell and Sandra, and why the defense spent so much of the trial on Sandra's mental health.The jury told the judge it was deadlocked before reaching its verdict. Sentencing is in February.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
