ABOUT THIS EPISODE
At the Matthew Farwell trial, the government rested after arguing the former Stoughton cop killed a pregnant Sandra Birchmore and made it look like suicide. His lawyers say it was suicide, and Farwell has pleaded not guilty.
Stoughton's own internal investigation found three of its officers had inappropriate relationships with Sandra, and Farwell was one of them. That's the same county as the Karen Read case, where the lead investigator was fired.
If he's convicted, Farwell would walk into federal prison wearing both labels inmates hate most: former cop, and a case prosecutors say began when Sandra was 15. He was 27 then, they say, and teaching the Stoughton police youth program.
Eric Faddis is a defense attorney who used to prosecute, and Robin Dreeke ran the FBI's counterintelligence behavioral program before retiring. I ask them how much danger those labels would put him in behind bars.
