Matthew Farwell’s Defense Called a Doctor Who Then Told Prosecutors THIS

Matthew Farwell’s lawyers rested on Dr. Thomas Andrew, who couldn’t call Sandra Birchmore’s death a homicide and couldn’t rule out that she hanged herself. Prosecutors got an admission out of him anyway. Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins me as the Farwell trial heads to closing arguments on November 6th.

The government says the former Stoughton detective strangled Sandra in February 2021 to keep her from exposing him, then made it look like a suicide. Farwell says she killed herself. His phone expert told jurors Sandra’s step data can’t show who was holding her iPhone at 9:40. His DNA expert said DNA can move from one surface to another, including inside the evidence bag that held the strap.

Jen answers whether those defense answers hold up, and whether handing his phone to state police helps Farwell or hurts him.
