GUILTY FL - Sarah Boone, 42, charged with murdering boyfriend Jorge Torres, 42, by leaving him locked in suitcase, Winter Park, Feb 2020 #3

[Tortoise]

In his interview outside court Owens said Boone had scrapped parts of what she was going to say on his advice.

I can't imagine how anything could have been worse than what she did say.

Owens :

"I had a chance to talk to her about that statement earlier, right before court, you know I'm torn between being a lawyer and being a human being, she's facing life in prison, it's your chance to speak, you know I don't like to take away everything, but I did have her delete a bunch.

She also opened up her speech by saying it had been reduced to the tip of the tip of the tip of the iceberg. Did she truly intend to hijack every person in the court for a whole day seminar on her world views? I suspect so!

I'm sure Owens would have forced her to remove any mention of her ex husband and child as well as other living people who could take legal action against her.

I'm still shocked that she was facilitated to stand in a court of law and make false or unproven allegations about the deceased, her victim, when there was never a shred of evidence presented to substantiate those and in fact, statements from neighbours to the contrary. JMO

 

[SoWhat]

Incredible to think SB's advocates imagined that some extraordinary leniency would be shown to her and a 'downward departure'.

Although it's difficult to find a shred of sympathy for SB, I do wonder if SB has been wildly misinformed and misled throughout her time in jail by the Psychologist who seemed determined to propel her own theory of BSS, probably for her own self-aggrandizment.

SB seems pretty delusional in her own right but having someone encourage her to believe she was never a criminal and in fact the victim, compounded with other professionals saying the same would surely have given her some (false) hope to grasp on to?

I disagree with this. Sarah Boone’s behavior before, during, and after is perfectly consistent and if anything she is the one manipulating every one she possibly can. I don’t think there is anything or anyone who could influence the thoughts Sarah Boone already had. There’s nothing about Sarah that suggests she’s impressionable in this way. Sarah had her narrative from the get go, everything that came after was about finding counsel and experts that would accept what Sarah was doing and saying with no meaningful pushback. She was using her fake DV victimhood to harm Jorge Torres long before she killed him and it worked out for her exactly like she wanted it to. It didn’t go that way during her trial but prior to she had effectively made this her entire identity so I don’t think that she ever needed a nudge towards seeing herself as a victim. It was the fabric of how wanted other people to see her, a tragic victim-hero. Given the nasty things she had to say about Brian Boone I’m convinced she was doing this during her marriage to him as well.

All of this is so true. I am shocked there wasn't more made by the prosecution of her relationship with ex husband in terms of his evidence that she was a violent drunk.

It's almost like the deceased had nobody to advocate for him. Yet the murderer had all these people willing to line up (for money) and propel their B$$ theory and pander to her delusion. Well, they aren't getting paid now are they?

I appreciate LE did want to secure conviction and that has happened, she is serving life, justice has been done. But wow I feel like JT's entire character and life was posthumously violated. The fact that professionals can stand in a court of law and back up the notion she was the victim is truly dismaying. They didn't even say she perceives herself as a victim, they said she did what she did in self defence because she is the true victim.

Shouldn't victims of murder be somehow safeguarded from having untrue and slanderous things said about them in courts of law, even though they're already passed?

ETA: Her original story 'not intentional' was the one she stuck to and seemed more believable IMO. So she must have been encouraged by professionals to change to BSS - Owens even said that, he said SB doesn't realise she's got BSS until we explained it to her. Therefore, it was not her idea. Her defence was persistently it was an accident 'not intentional'. For that defence she was offered a 15 yr plea deal. So, if it weren't for the people verifying BSS to her, she'd have been out and joining society in a few years. I think they have done some harm to SB's case, although they did get her to admit to an intentional killing, which is a strange way to go about defending someone IMO (worsening their outcome), it may not have been the truth. I guess we will never know.

SB’s statement was beyond disgusting in every way imaginable. But the way it was worded and the haughty manner in which she read it — as if she was up there reading award winning poetry — was the most rage-inducing aspect for me.

Like I’m pretty sure she even used the word forevermore. My eyes rolled so hard that one popped out and rolled under the refrigerator.

Yep she used her one and only opportunity to avoid a whole life sentence to showcase her creative writing and lecturing skills, badly. That's quite some thinking error.

It was part Ted Talk, part sermon, part endless lecture, wholly insane. Seemingly designed to hurt people. It really did go on forever but it was her verbal contribution (after her pre-written lecture) where she said stuff about forever and forevermore which I didn't understand. Strange woman.

[I am not Sherlock H.]

he got himself drunk and did a stupid thing by giving up his power = his fault
she got herself drunk, angry drunk, had the power, and used it to cause a man's death = not her fault, just an accident

Have I got that right?

STRONGLY disagree with all of the above but I do agree that our system is broken. When it takes four, nearly five years, hundreds of thousands of dollars, seven attorney swaps, and countless other defendant created frivolous delays to obtain a lawful conviction there is indeed a problem. JMO

Thank you @tlcya ….. a wonderful and eloquent summary!

And as to any attempts to discount SB actions in the death of JT, one only need recall that the jury IMO correctly concluded that SB by her actions (and / or inactions) contributed to and / or caused the death of JT.

SB is exactly where she belongs. And she has earned exactly what she was given by the jury and judge. And those seven other attorneys she ‘plowed’ through (my words). Oh well. On to another case in FL perhaps. MOO

She really is a Narcissist loon.

Newest Boone letter might be the wildest. Definitely on the agenda for tomorrow.

May have to borrow this!!!

I can just hear her saying all of this with a gallon of wine inside her too. She is a persecutor to the core (and a murderer).

Hmmmmmm, @arielilane …. so I found some excerpts of this latest letter from SB to the judge. ~28 pages IIUC?

Curiously odd in some respects IMO….. so she now says words to the effect she didn’t receive a fair trial? Well I wonder if she was continuing to be ‘truthful’ or ‘untruthful’ to the judge during the trial…… IIRC she was asked daily by the judge if she was happy with her attorneys and the proceedings? And if I remember correctly, SB assured affirmatively ‘yes’ to the judge to each of those asked questions?

Can’t wait to read the appeal that the convicted murderer SB intends to file. IMO I bet someone wishes they had taken that plea deal perhaps. But that ship sailed.

As the wonderful late Warren Zevon quipped IIRC to David Letterman about a calculation he had made on his health in his life, he replied words to the effect that he ‘had made a tactical error in judgment’ or words to that effect. Something similar might apply here IMO. MOO

Yep she's a real malignant Narcissist, so firmly embedded on the 'drama triangle' - victim / persecutor / rescuer - that she doesn't even know there's a way to live off the triangle.

How gleeful she was when she believed Owens was going to get her out free on the BSS plea.

 

[JosieMae]

Oh. My. God.
Now it's all Judge Kraynick's fault. And Sarah's a feminist martyr.

 

[Marysmith]

She seems certifiable.

"I am enclosing my full statement to you and the world."

The world? My how she is luxuriating in her stardumb.

Sarah, your pencil is tired. Give it a rest.

Please.

[Observe_dont_Absorb]

The full statement being the one she couldn't read in court because Owens had her edit it down to being the 'tip of the tip of the tip of the iceberg' in her own words.

Where can this full letter be read? I suppose the various youtubers will get to it soon

To the world! Ha!!!

I am having a hard time reading her penmanship and understanding her logic in writing the letter. For someone who is supposed to be super intelligent, she should know that a judge needs to be addressed as a judge.
