Welcome to Boston Confidential, Beantown's True Crime podcast.

Boston is a great city, but there's more to it than the Freedom Trail in Fenway Park.

There's a startling underbelly to the city, and Boston Confidential will take you on a guided tour of the hub of the universe, Boston, Massachusetts.

Hey, everybody, welcome back to Boston Confidential. My name's Barry McGuire, and I'm your host. I'm a 20-year private investigator on the streets of Boston, and I help run a company called Impact Due Diligence Investigations.

If you need anything in terms of investigative services, feel free to contact me at Impact.

If I can't help you personally, I'll certainly direct you to the right person or agency.

All right, guys, let's get to it.

Hey guys, welcome back to Boston Confidential.

Man, what a week it's been here in the metropolitan Boston area.

I had just come back from Washington, D.C., dropping my daughter off for her junior year in college.

And then we had come back and drop my son off at college in Rhode Island.

So I guess the big news is Big Daddy, your host is a quasi empty nester.

Kind of a strange feeling.

But more than that, guys, in the Sandra

Birchmore case, there's an arrest of Matthew Farwell, Officer Matthew Farwell, for murder

of Sandra Birchmore by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Massachusetts. And they had come up with tens of thousands of text messages between, I believe,

both Farwell brothers and Sandra Birchmore. And I think later it will come out that there were

text messages from Divine as well, Deputy Chief Divine. But for right now,

Matthew Fawar was arrested for homicide, and I believe he's being held. They found him

driving a truck in Revere. And man, this kid has got two small kids of his own. And don't forget, the

allegation against Matt Farwell is this. It's only an allegation. Strangles Sandra

Birchmore, and this is in the indictment, and leaves Sandra Birchmore's apartment, and goes help deliver his own baby.
