Speaker 2: her boyfriend died.

8
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 3: My boyfriend Honi were playing last night and I put

9
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 3: him in a case and we were playing and the

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 3: kind of hide and seek kind of thing. So I

11
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 3: fell asleep and I woke up and he was dead

12
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 3: in the suitcase. So I don't know what happened. I

13
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 3: don't know what happened.

14
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 2: But that isn't exactly true. Although we don't know how

15
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 2: Sarah Boone talked her boyfriend or Hey Torres Junior into

16
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 2: getting into a suitcase, we do know she zipped him

17
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,319
Speaker 2: up inside and wouldn't let him out no matter how

18
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 2: much he pleaded. We know this because Boone herself videoed

19
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: the incident with her phone and taunted Torres when he

20
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 2: said he couldn't breathe begging to be let out.

21
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: For everything you've done to me, for everything you've done

22
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: to me, So.

23
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 3: Thank you, so.

24
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: So stupid.

25
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 2: Sarah.

26
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 3: It's my name, don't wear it.

27
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: No.

28
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: Boone says, the couple drank a bottle of wine and

29
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 2: then decided to play hide and seek. We know through

30
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 2: court records that Torres had been in the suitcase for

31
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 2: about three hours when Boone says she fell asleep. Waking

32
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 2: very late the next day, Torres had been in the

33
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 2: suitcase eleven hours. By this time. Boone says she then

34
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: remembered Torres in the suitcase. She says she pulled him out,

35
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: his body was purple, and then tried to do CPR.

36
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 2: We also know, however, she called her ex husband before

37
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: she made this nine to one one call.

38
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 4: All right, listen to me, Okay, you need to confirm

39
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 4: this one right, and I understand you need to confirm

40
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 4: this easy and wake at all? Is he conscious at all?

41
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 5: Now?

42
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 3: He purple? Waight?

43
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 4: Is he breathing?

44
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 3: No?

45
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 4: All right? I needed to get any kid, get him

46
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 4: on the profile in his back and forth.

47
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 3: Kay, I did, I did? I tried giving him CPR,

48
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 3: all right, I tried giving him CPR.

49
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, we will not happened.

50
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 2: When officers arrived, Boone tells them she and Torres were

51
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: putting together a puzzle and then decided to play hide

52
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 2: and seek.

53
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 5: He decided to get in the suitcase, so I thought

54
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 5: it would be funny too, and he was laughing about

55
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 5: it too. To set him up in there, I go upstairs.

56
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 3: And fell asleep. So this morning when I woke up

57
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: to stop.

58
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 5: Him, I actually got out of the bed. I thought

59
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 5: for sure he was upstairs on the laptop and really quiet,

60
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 5: but then I came upstairs and I'm like, where is he?

61
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 5: Then I that's.

62
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 3: What I found it.

63
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 2: Boone, forty six, is now charged with second degree murder

64
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: in Jorgey Torres' death. Expected to go to trial October seventh.

65
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 2: One of the biggest issues in preparing for trial is

66
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: that Boone has not been able to keep an attorney.

67
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 2: Eight attorneys have so far been dismissed or walked away

68
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 2: due to difficulties working with their client. A judge told

69
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 2: Boone she had to represent herself, but now a ninth

70
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: attorney has stepped up to represent her. Attorney, James Owens,

71
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: asked the judge for a continuance to prep for Boone's defense.

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: The judge denied that request. For more information on the
