Sickening video allegedly shows accused murderer Sarah Boone laughing as she films her boyfriend begging for help as he slowly suffocates to death while locked in a suitcase.
Boone, 46, told cops that boyfriend Jorge Torres Jr., 42, allegedly climbed into the luggage during an alcohol-fueled game of hide-and-seek in their home in Winter Park, Florida, in February 2020 and that she fell asleep assuming he would easily get out, according to court documents.
But she was charged with murder after police found videos on her cellphone showing Torres yelling Boone’s name while begging her for help, according to the arrest report.
“Yeah, that’s what you do when you choke me,” Boone responded in one of the videos, according to the charging document. “Oh, that’s what I feel like when you cheat on me.”
Boone then laughs and calls Torres “stupid,” according to the video expected to be key in her murder trial, which was supposed to begin Monday but was delayed by the threat of Hurricane Milton.
At one point in the video, she even jokes about his cries of “Sarah,” telling him, “That’s my name; don’t wear it out.”
As he continues to say he can’t breathe, Boone responds, “That’s on you,” and “You should probably shut the f–k up,” the video allegedly shows.
Torres was also arrested four times for battery against Boone, however, each time she bailed him out of jail, the Sun reported .
Boone initially told detectives that Torres willingly climbed in the suitcase as a joke and that she went to sleep thinking that Torres could get out of the suitcase on his own, the arrest report noted.
When she woke up the next morning, she claimed she didn’t find Torres but then remembered he was in the suitcase. She unzipped the suitcase, and found him unresponsive, the arrest report charged said.
She has pleaded not guilty to the second-degree murder charge. Since her arrest, Boone has gone through several attorneys, contributing to the delay in her trial. She faces life in prison if she is found guilty on second-degree murder charges.

I heard this case the day it came out. I heard the recordings shortly after. This woman makes me sick. I was abused and legally could’ve killed my abuser so many times in self defense. What she did here was not self defense. She murdered him in the worst way, leaving him to slowly suffocate to death. She has serious issues. She didn’t kill him because of abuse.
