Night Watch: Sandra Birchmore Part 5

This final chapter in our five-part series on Sandra Birchmore asks one question: how did a “suicide” in Canton, Massachusetts turn into a federal murder case against a former cop? Katie pieces together how Sandra’s family refused to accept the original ruling, brought in famed pathologist Dr. Michael Baden to reclassify her death as homicidal strangulation, and found an unexpected ally in Chief Donna McNamara’s internal investigation, which uncovered years of grooming and abuse inside Stoughton PD. She then turns to the FBI’s quiet probe that re-examined Sandra’s injuries, her broken flamingo necklace, and the last steps on her phone, building a case that Sandra was strangled and staged: leading to Matthew Farwell’s 2024 arrest, an added federal charge for causing the death of her unborn child, and a looming trial where he now faces life in prison or even the death penalty. Will Sandra’s family get justice? Crime House Daily is a Crime House Original Podcast, powered by PAVE Studios. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.
