Florida Woman Sentenced for Zipping Boyfriend in Suitcase, Leading to His Death
A Florida woman, Sarah Boone, has been sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty of second-degree murder for a shocking and tragic incident. In February 2020, Boone's actions led to the death of her boyfriend, Jorge Torres Jr., who suffocated after being locked inside a suitcase for several hours. This heart-wrenching case has captivated the public due to the disturbing details that emerged during the trial.
The incident occurred during a night of drinking and playing a game of hide-and-seek. Boone and Torres, both intoxicated, thought it would be amusing to try zipping themselves inside a suitcase. Boone claimed that Torres willingly climbed into the suitcase, and she zipped it closed, thinking it was a harmless joke. She even recorded a video of the incident, taunting him as he pleaded to be let out. Boone later went upstairs to sleep, leaving Torres trapped inside.

The next morning, when Boone woke up, she discovered Torres unresponsive in the suitcase. Boone called 911, but it was too late. The videos found on her phone revealed the horrifying truth: Torres had been begging for help, telling Boone he couldn’t breathe as he struggled inside the confined space. Boone responded with cruel taunts, saying things like, “That’s what you get” and “That’s what I feel like when you cheat on me,” as Torres pleaded for his life.
In her defense, Boone testified that she suffered from "battered spouse syndrome," claiming she was afraid of Torres. However, the prosecution argued that her actions were deliberate and cruel. Boone’s defense team was left devastated by the conviction, while the victim's family has chosen to remain silent. Boone’s legal team also filed a request for a new trial, citing alleged prosecutorial misconduct, but the judge denied this appeal.
The case serves as a chilling reminder of the dangers of domestic abuse and the extreme outcomes that can result from toxic and abusive relationships. Boone’s sentencing to life in prison reflects the severity of her actions, and this tragic story will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact on all who hear it.
