United States v Matthew Farwell (Part 2)

About this episode

Sandra Birchmore: The Final Witnesses | Part 2

What if the evidence that could change everything had been there from the very beginning?

As prosecutors wrap up their case against former Stoughton police detective Matthew Farwell, some of the most compelling testimony is still to come.

A medical examiner faces questions about a decision she made years earlier. An expert points to details that may tell an entirely different story. And when Matthew's own twin brother takes the stand, jurors hear about private conversations that raise even more questions.

But perhaps the most chilling testimony comes from the prosecution's final witness, who reconstructs the last recorded moments of activity on Sandra Birchmore's phone.

And the timeline is difficult to ignore.

With the prosecution's case complete, the question now is whether the defense can cast reasonable doubt on the story jurors have just heard.

This is Part 2 of our ongoing coverage of the Sandra Birchmore murder trial.

Matthew Farwell has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
