Farwell's Twin Was Seeing Sandra Too. Is That Why He Kept Quiet?

On Hidden Killers Live, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott and I talk about the people who could have stepped in for Sandra Birchmore and didn't, starting with Matthew Farwell's own twin. A federal jury has found the former Stoughton detective guilty of killing Sandra and her unborn child.

Sandra once messaged William Farwell, Matthew's twin and a fellow Stoughton officer, that she was fifteen when it started with his brother. His reply was "Nice." William told jurors he didn't buy her story and didn't think Matthew would be that stupid. Less than two weeks before Sandra died, a dispatcher who took a call about Farwell and Sandra was told to forget it, according to his testimony.

Shavaun explains how "he would never do that" turns into a reason not to ask, why people with secrets of their own go quiet, and how "stay out of it" becomes more important than whether someone's being hurt. We also talk about why people turn on the person who speaks up, and how to get someone to come forward when she's scared.

Farwell will be sentenced in February, and his conviction carries a mandatory life term.
