Feds say Stoughton cop killed woman he'd groomed as a child | FULL VIDEO

Critical new information helped lead to a new federal charge alleging that Stoughton Police Officer Matthew Farwell killed Sandra Birchmore, whom he’d had a sexual relationship with as a child, and whose death in Canton in 2021 was initially ruled a suicide. “Sandra Birchmore survived years of grooming, statutory rape and then sexual violence, all at the hands of Matthew Farwell, who was employed throughout the relationship as an officer and then detective for the Stoughton Police Department,” acting U.S. Attorney Joshua Levy said at this news conference.
