Jury finds Matthew Farwell guilty in Birchmore death

A jury found former police officer Matthew Farwell was guilty of all charges. The charges are linked to the 2021 deaths of Sandra Birchmore and her unborn baby. Farwell abused Birchmore when she was a teenager. He killed her because he thought she was carrying his child.

This verdict comes after a previous trial where a jury failed to reach a verdict on the charges. Farwell was convicted in the deaths of both Birchmore and the unborn child.

“A jury found former police officer Matthew Farwell was guilty of all charges,” — Simone Whitfield, staff writer at Elmstone Ham Staffing, explained.
