Did The Stoughton & Canton MA Police Create A System Of 'Un-Touchable' Corrupt Cops?

True Crime Today | A True Crime Podcast

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Tony Brueski and Eric Faddis, a former felony prosecutor and defense attorney, discuss the disturbing case of Sandra Birchmore, a 23-year-old woman whose death was initially ruled a suicide but later reclassified as a homicide. The case suggests potential misconduct and cover-ups within the police department, particularly involving Officer Matthew Farwell, who is accused of grooming and abusing Birchmore from a young age. The conversation reveals that local authorities failed to properly investigate the allegations, often informing the suspect instead of pursuing an impartial inquiry. It took federal intervention to bring new evidence to light, indicating a broader systemic issue within the department. The podcast examines the need for reforms, transparency, and stricter protocols to protect minors from similar abuses. Faddis also calls for a comprehensive review of police departments to root out corruption and misconduct. The discussion draws parallels to the Karen Read case, highlighting ongoing concerns about systemic corruption and the need for accountability in law enforcement.
