Sandra's Phone Stopped Three Minutes Before Farwell Walked Out

Do you think any of these other officers, some of them have lost the ability to be a police officer because of their inappropriate relationship with Sandra leading up to her death? Farwell's the only one that we know of that we understand had a relationship with her while she was underage.

Do any of the officers involved in this have anything to be concerned with as far as charges coming their way in terms of helping to cover up for a murder, depending on where this goes? If he's found guilty and we're hearing about the insane lack of investigation here in the parking lots and all that shit, where do we go from people being really shitty, immoral, blue, protecting the blue, into criminal behavior?

Yeah.

You know, there's probably no charge for doing a shitty job as a cop.

There's probably no criminal charge that can be brought for that.

But there's criminal charges for obstruction of an investigation.

There's criminal charges for destruction of evidence, tampering with evidence, tampering with witnesses.

I'm not accusing these folks of doing that, but I'm saying these are theoretical possibilities that can arise during alleged cover-ups.

And so, you know, they're going to want to look at was there such obstruction? Was there any manipulation of evidence? You know, simply leaving evidence behind is probably that they should have taken is probably not enough.

But if they took some affirmative action that impaired the investigation and if they could show that it was willful, that could be a problem for those cops.

And the thing that helps in cases like this is because it's an FBI case, it's federal, you don't have – that blue wall doesn't exist.

No. It's not even close to the same because a lot of these people – remember, a lot of these people live and grew up in this area.

It's a really bubba, towel-snapping kind of clique going on here.

And when the Bureau comes in, typically – I mean, in my entire career, 22 years, only in the last five years of my career did I actually work – in the same town that I lived in for a period of time, because I was able to finally get a transfer to that smaller office.

But typically when federal agents are coming to do investigations, there's not local ties that they're dealing with.

It's only local relationships with that local law enforcement and the public corruption cases that we deal with are very, very difficult to break through those walls.

But once you're in, once you have people that start running scared, they start running to us because they want a blap to protect themselves.

So I'm thinking that if there's more there to be found, just because they're able to bring this case there, if there's more, they're going to find it.

Who would be the one that would bring those charges? Would that be the federal government against against these other officers if there were to be something criminal to be found? I mean, it's kind of rare that we even have this going on with the federal government getting involved with on the level of just Farwell himself.

You know, there is the practicality element of it.

Would they likely would the federal government go in? to go after some of these people for their role if they were to be found in covering any of this stuff up.

Is that the feds? Or is this something, too, that the Stoughton department could actually do, could investigate, could then take to the local district attorney and could become a local case if they have any interest in PR at all? Now, it sounds like a bad PR move from the surface because why would you put this spotlight on your department? Well, it's already pretty

fucking horrible.

taking the flashlight out and going, we're fixing this problem.

We are calling this shit out.
