@kristinthorne: “I had butterflies the day you took my virginity.” That’s one of the shocking text messages jurors heard from 15-year-old Sandra Birchmore to then-27-year-old Massachusetts police officer Matthew Farwell. Now, thousands of text messages are taking center stage in Farwell’s murder trial, as prosecutors argue they reveal years of alleged sexual abuse that began when Birchmore was a teenager participating in a police mentorship program. Then, on December 28, 2020, Birchmore sent Farwell another bombshell text: “Congrats, we are going to be parents.” Just weeks later, 23-year-old Birchmore was found dead in her apartment, and prosecutors allege Farwell killed her to conceal their relationship and her pregnancy, although DNA testing later determined he was not the father. Farwell denies killing Birchmore, and his defense maintains she took her own life after he ended their relationship. Could these text messages be the key to proving what really happened to Sandra Birchmore? #SandraBirchmore #MatthewFarwell #SandraBirchmoreCase #MassachusettsCrime #TrueCrime
