Suitcase Murder Trial

Mental health was a big topic in this trial. Sarah Boone's legal team relied heavily on the diagnosis she received in a full psychological evaluation conducted on her-weeks after she was arrested for the second-degree murder of her boyfriend.

Dr. Tonia Werner agreed with the defense expert's diagnosis that Boone did, indeed, suffer from battered woman's syndrome in her relationship with Jorge Torres.
