Sarah Boone expected to take the stand in murder trial

A Florida woman on trial for murder after her boyfriend died in a zipped-up suitcase during an apparent drunken game of hide-and-seek is expected to take the stand Tuesday in her own defense after a lunch break. Sarah Boone, 47, faces a charge of second-degree murder, accused of leaving her boyfriend — Jorge Torres Jr., 42 — to die of asphyxiation in a zipped-up suitcase in 2020 during what she called a drunken game of hide-and-seek.
