ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — An Orange County woman accused of leaving her live-in boyfriend zipped inside a suitcase to die after he begged her to let him out following a game of hide-and-seek out once posted a photo of a child zipped inside a suitcase on social media, deputies said.
Orange County deputies said four years ago they investigated the photo of the child in the suitcase that Sarah Boone posted on Facebook and found that there was no harm done.
“That was investigated four years ago, and both our investigators and Department of Children and Families realized that was consensual, the kid wanted to get in there, the kid wanted the picture of being in the suitcase,” Sheriff John Mina said.
Boone is now being held on no-bond on a charge of first-degree murder for the death of her boyfriend, Jorge Torres Jr.
