I will eternally be grateful for the work of these 3 Federal prosecutors on Sandra Birchmore's case: Liz Riley, Brian Fogerty, and Torey Cummings.
I have spoken a lot about these three and what I noticed in the courtroom.
Fogerty is insanely intelligent and beautifully is able to think on his toes when he is being intensely challenged with objections. He never lost his cool even when being thrown with a myriad of senseless motivations by the defense team.
Cummings was such a light for the team. Her kindness, caring and "Elle Woods" walk was a joy to witness during emotionally-taxing testimony. She ultimately leads with her heart and you could see her passion for this case. Plus she literally has *the best* hair. ๐
And Riley... there isn't enough I could say about her. A bulldog. A force to be reckoned with. Her cross-examination of the defense's last witness was a sight to see. She is the perfect example of a leader and I genuinely adored seeing her take Sandra's story and put it to life.
I don't believe we could have had a better team to make sure the jury understand what happened to Sandra. They took on this case - amongst a time when state police and the Norfolk County District Attorneyโs office pushed back - and actually listened to her loved ones. Multiple witnesses tips were ignored locally but the Feds stepped up.
This team took these same tips, dug deep and was able to come out on top. No drama. No scheming behind the scenes. Simply pure, thorough investigation that ended in a "guilty" verdict against Matthew Farwell.
If any of you ever see this, thank you for your hard work. The stressful moments and sleepless nights I am sure you all had was worth it.
Finally, almost 6 years later, we have justice for Sandra.
It's about damn time. ๐ฉต๐ซถ

ABSOLUTELY NOT!
You donโt get to conduct the WORLDโS WORST DEATH INVESTIGATION & then blame it on the OCME believing the lies/omissions your office told/kept.
NCDAO failed Sandra & her son.
DAs make $223,000 per year & our taxes pay for the NCDAO & the MSP.
I WANT A REFUND!

SIDERS FAMILY UPDATE: Elizabeth Siders, the Ohio mother accused of keeping 16 children in deplorable condition and facing separate felony sexual battery offenses, has been found COMPETENT to stand trial. Her attorney, Tommy Stolly, is asking for a second evaluation as he says he is pursuing an insanity defense.
Stolly criticized the initial psychiatric evaluation, telling reporters: โThe fact that this evaluator conducted both of these evaluations at the same time via Zoom, and essentially spent approximately an hour and a half with my client ...that is simply not enough to understand her mental condition.โ When he referred to โbothโ evaluations, he meant NGRI and competency.
Stolly also confirmed Siders is pregnant again (obviously, at this point). He didnโt confirm a due date. Meanwhile, the children's grandmother, Christina Siders, was found incompetent to stand trial. Evaluators identified signs of dementia but believe she may be restored to competency. She will be sent to an inpatient facility for treatment and further evaluation. #OhioHouseofHorrors

The Norfolk District Attorneyโs Office just released a statement following Matthew Farwellโs conviction for killing Sandra Birchmore and her unborn child.
Part of the statement reads: โIts ability to prosecute was constrained by the finding of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner that the manner of death was suicide.โ
It is important to add context. During opening statements in Farwellโs trial, Assistant U.S. Attorney Torey Cummings told the jury that Massachusetts State Police troopers assigned to the Norfolk DAโs Office:
โvery quickly told others, including the medical examiner, that this was definitively a suicide and there was no foul play. They told the medical examiner, no need to treat this death as suspicious.โ
