Attached to her filing was a correspondence from her attorney, in which he explained that he prefers written communication, lacks the time and resources for additional calls, and determined that a reply brief and oral arguments were unnecessary for her appeal. The breach of attorney-client privilege by submitting this letter to the court suggests the appellate court will likely ignore her request for guidance, rule on the existing briefs, or prompt her attorney to file a motion to withdraw.

Matthew Farwell, concerning the death of Sandra Birchmore, completed its first full week of witness testimony in Massachusetts without cameras allowed in the courtroom. Legal disputes dominated early proceedings. Additionally, the court ordered the government to remove unredacted trial exhibits and crime scene photos from its public website to ensure a fair trial. Surveillance footage and FBI digital forensics established a detailed timeline of Birchmore's final movements and the exact time her devices permanently ceased activity following Farwell's departure from her apartment building. Witness testimony highlighted procedural oversights by initial state investigators, including a deliberately informal initial interview with Farwell.
