Sandra Birchmore's Police File Ruled Out This Before Her Autopsy

In the Matthew Farwell trial, Sandra Birchmore's medical examiner testified that police intake materials described multiple antidepressants, but only one was logged. Dr. María del Mar Capó-Martínez said the police paperwork she was handed had already ruled out foul play and pointed to suicide before the autopsy. She testified her office wasn't called to the apartment, and she had no information about a broken necklace at the time of the examination. The biological evidence kit was requested three weeks after the autopsy, according to her testimony. Her original manner-of-death ruling was suicide, and in April 2026 she switched it to undetermined. Prosecutors blame misinformation for a premature first ruling, and Farwell's side says pressure from federal prosecutors drove the change. Robin Dreeke, a retired FBI special agent, and defense lawyer Bob Motta help me work through what investigators would have had to do if that first ruling had come back undetermined in 2021.
