Judge Allows Key Police Interview in Sarah Boone Suitcase Murder Trial

Sarah Boone's request to suppress her police interview before her trial for the alleged murder of her boyfriend was denied.

An Orange County judge ruled that Sarah Boone's initial interview with police can be used in her trial, rejecting claims of coercion.
Boone's defense argued that she was a victim of battered spouse syndrome and acted in self-defense, contradicting her previous statements to police.
Boone had requested professional hair and makeup for her trial, but the judge denied this due to security concerns regarding contraband.
Prosecutors presented evidence, including video footage, suggesting Boone intentionally trapped her boyfriend, Jorge Torres, in a suitcase leading to his death.
Jury selection for the trial is set to begin on Monday, with Boone facing a potential life sentence if convicted of second-degree murder.
