About

Matthew Farwell faces life in prison if a federal jury finds he killed Sandra Birchmore to stop her from reporting him. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis lays out the evidence the defense has to get past.

According to prosecutors, Farwell met Sandra through the Stoughton police youth program when she was a teenager and the relationship began when she was 15. They say she was pregnant and believed he was the father when she died in February 2021. DNA later showed he wasn't, but prosecutors say Farwell thought he was.

The government says his DNA was on the strap found with her body, that he was on camera in a mask that night, and that he deleted their messages.

His lawyers say Sandra was upset because he was ending it. Eric explains why the motive question could decide this case.
