    Was Sandra Birchmore's Death Covered Up by the People Sworn to Investigate It?

    Tony and Bob Motta go officer by officer through the Sandra Birchmore investigation in one sitting. Trooper Matthew Dunne, who met Matthew Farwell in a school parking lot, took no notes, and now says Farwell lied to him. Examiner Nicholas Guarino, who found Sandra's DoorDash password was mfarwell1 and then found nothing on Farwell's phone. Sgt. John Fanning, who ran the unit, chose the parking lot, never sought a warrant, and allegedly told Farwell's brother they needed the case like a bullet in the head. And William Farwell, the twin who worked in the Stoughton station, admitted his own relationship with Sandra, lied to troopers, and lost his certification. Four men, four segments, one question: how did a dead pregnant woman get ruled a suicide with that many cops in the room? Farwell is charged with killing Sandra and her unborn child. His lawyers say suicide. Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    A Former Pastor on What Caleb Flynn Meant by 'God Is My Judge'

    Caleb Flynn stood convicted on all nine counts, sentenced to life without parole for the murder of his wife Ashley, and told the courtroom God is his judge. Timmy Gibson heard that and recognized doctrine, not defiance. Gibson spent thirty years as an evangelical pastor before walking away. On Homicide Happy Hour, he laid out the theology. The Bible teaches that when you do wrong, the first relationship to repair is between you and God. God will cast your sins as far as the east is from the west. When that's the system, the people you actually harmed become secondary. Tony pushed the conversation toward Alleigha Botner and her lost devices. Both believe Botner thought she was preparing for a divorce, not covering for a killing. She believed she'd found God's person for her. Gibson says Flynn will never confess because the system that justified the affair sustains his silence.

    Did Stoughton Police Tip Off Matthew Farwell and Then Delete the Proof?

    Stoughton police got a call about Matthew Farwell and Sandra Birchmore on January 20th, 2021. Three minutes. Two holds. Former Deputy Chief Brian Holmes testified he listened to the recording before the department's system automatically deleted it. The federal indictment says a department employee told Farwell about the call. Twelve days later, Sandra was dead. Inside that same department was Matthew's twin, Officer William Farwell, who admitted his own relationship with Sandra, lied to state police, and searched her in the law enforcement database dozens of times with no official reason. He was permanently decertified in 2024. Stoughton's internal investigation found all three officers misled the death investigators. Bob Motta joins Tony live to ask what a woman is supposed to do when the police department she calls is the problem. Farwell is charged federally with killing Sandra and her unborn child. His lawyers say suicide. Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Was John Fanning Protecting the Farwell Brothers or Himself?

    William Farwell is a Stoughton cop, Matthew Farwell's twin, and a man who admitted to state police that he'd been with Sandra Birchmore himself. Prosecutors say that when Sgt. John Fanning interviewed him on February 11th, 2021, Fanning told him the death was a suicide, nothing was criminal, and they needed the investigation like they needed a bullet in the head. Fanning ran the unit. Trooper Dunne testified Fanning made the decision to interview Matthew Farwell in a parking lot without a recorder. The unit never asked a judge for a warrant. Fanning later oversaw the Karen Read investigation that ended with a fired trooper and an acquittal. Bob Motta joins Tony live to ask who Fanning was protecting. Farwell is charged federally with killing Sandra and her unborn child. His lawyers say suicide.

    Did State Police Help Matthew Farwell Erase Sandra Birchmore?

    State police examiner Nicholas Guarino searched Matthew Farwell's phone on February 9th, 2021, found no messages with Sandra Birchmore, and returned it. Days earlier he'd unlocked Sandra's laptop using a password she'd set to Farwell's own name. Prosecutors say Farwell wiped his messages after his first state police interview. The FBI later found tens of thousands of them. On the stand, Guarino also admitted deleting a partial extraction of Sandra's laptop, being unable to read her Apple Watch, and losing track of when an external hard drive failed. Bob Motta joins Tony live to explain what a forensic examiner is supposed to do when Sandra's password is the suspect's name, and what the defense does with an evidence trail this broken. Farwell is charged federally with killing Sandra and her unborn child and staging a suicide. His lawyers say she took her own life.

    Did Trooper Matthew Dunne Cover for Matthew Farwell?

    A pregnant woman is found dead. The last man known to see her alive is a cop. The trooper assigned to find out what happened meets that cop in a parking lot, keeps it friendly, and tells a jury five years later he did it that way so the cop wouldn't ask for a lawyer. That's Trooper Matthew Dunne's testimony in the Matthew Farwell trial. Dunne also admitted he skipped Sandra Birchmore's autopsy, never interviewed her neighbors, never went to Stoughton PD to question Farwell's coworkers, and later learned Farwell lied to him about the relationship. Bob Motta joins Tony live to walk through what a trooper owes a dead woman and whether any of this was an accident. Farwell is charged with killing Sandra and her unborn child and staging a suicide. His lawyers say she took her own life. Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Alex Murdaugh and Matthew Farwell — What the Evidence Says When the Cameras Are Off

    Two courtrooms produced evidence that had been sitting untouched. At Murdaugh's pretrial hearing, his defense showed unknown male DNA under both of Maggie's hands and on her phone — SLED never ran further tests. A drug dealer's statement connecting $15,000-a-week pill sales to the Murdaugh family had sat in evidence files for three years. Harpootlian claimed a passed polygraph; the judge put the failure on the record and warned him about candor. At Farwell's federal murder trial, an FBI agent and a prosecutor read his text messages with Sandra Birchmore to the jury. He told her he figured she would have said no because she was young. He told her to delete the messages. After her death, he searched his department phone for whether consent can be revoked. Both Murdaugh and Farwell have pleaded not guilty.
