Disgraced Massachusetts cop Matthew Farwell, 38, strangled Sandra Birchmore, 23, in 2021 after she revealed she was pregnant with his child, prosecutors alleged Wednesday.

Farwell is accused of having a years-long sexual relationship with Birchmore, beginning when she was 15 and he was 27, the US Attorney’s Office said.

    Where I live everybody knows this. Admittedly it’s Russia, but from your news I’m starting to think that maybe ours are not that much worse than yours.

        Before 2016 I frankly suspected the other one of that, but yes.

        Funny, I remember in year 2012 as a teenager thinking that the West is so fscking impenetrable to directed political corruption from ex-USSR with the accompanying views on morality, then started realizing it just took ~20 years to take visible effect.
