According to NBC Boston, Mathew Farwell was federally indicted on Wednesday for allegedly strangling Sandra Birchmore to death in her apartment back in February 2021 and then staging her death to appear as a suicide. This occurred shortly after Birchmore informed Farwell that he was the likely father of the child she was carrying.

The two met back when Birchmore was a member of the Stoughton Police Explorers Academy which she began in 2010 when she was 12 years old and continued until 2016.
