Following the demise of her boyfriend after he was zipped in a suitcase for hours, a 42-year-old Florida woman identified as Sarah Boone has been arrested and charged on second-degree murder.
WITHIN NIGERIA learnt that the 42-year-old Florida woman told detectives that she was playing a game of hide and seek with her partner Jorge Torrez Jr on Monday, February 24 while drinking alcohol.
According to Boone, both partners agreed that it would be funny if Torrez hopped in a blue suitcase in her home outside Orlando.
While narrating the incident, the 42-year-old woman said that she passed out after going upstairs while Torres was still in the suitcase.
She further revealed that she woke to her cellphone ringing multiple times.
She insisted she called 911 after finding her boyfriend who was still in the suitcase “unresponsive and not breathing”.
Reacting to the development, the sheriff’s office however said Boone’s statements have been “inconsistent” as there is a cellphone footage of Torres screaming for help while being taunted by her.
She was seen laughing in the video as Torres called out her name, saying he can’t breathe.
The arrest report said Boone replied on the tape, “That’s what you do when you choke me,” and when he said he couldn’t breathe again she said: “That’s on you. Oh, that’s what I feel like when you cheat on me.” She was also heard telling a pleading Torres to “shut the f— up”.
