Sandra Birchmore's family heard the word guilty for Matthew Farwell, convicted by a federal jury of killing Sandra and her unborn son, and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins me to talk about how Farwell lived with it and how the people around Sandra failed her.

It starts with how Farwell carried on. The FBI says his wife gave birth to their third child about 13 hours after he was at Sandra's apartment, and Sandra wasn't found until three days after his visit.

Shavaun and I talk about Sandra herself, a girl in the Stoughton Police Explorers who grew into a young woman wanting Farwell in her baby's life. We talk about William Farwell, who answered Sandra's text about being fifteen with "Nice," and the dispatcher who was told to forget a call about her. And we talk about the trial, where her mental health history was put in front of the jury as proof she took her own life.

Farwell will be sentenced in February, and the conviction carries mandatory life.
