A woman accused of leaving her boyfriend to suffocate in a suitcase could be searching for her ninth lawyer after insulting her previous attorneys. 

Sarah Boone was arrested in February 2020 after telling police she had passed out after zipping Jorge Torres Jr, 42, inside the bag during a booze-fueled game of hide-and-seek at their home in Winter Park, Florida.

But her story unraveled when investigators discovered video on her phone allegedly showing Torres desperately telling her: 'I can't f***ing breathe' and she was charged with second-degree murder.

Her eighth and latest attorney Patricia Cashman has filed a motion asking to withdraw from the case and cited irreconcilable differences 'including, but not limited to, ethical considerations,' according to Court TV. 

It comes after a hearing on June 7 where Boone handed the judge a 58-page letter complaining about her representation.

Boone has had to change lawyers seven times since she was arrested in 2020 and Cashman is her latest representative. 

But the defendant wrote a lengthy letter to the judge detailing her complaints about her lawyer. 

'I’ve never experienced anyone like Ms. Cashman,' she said. 'She will change her disposition and her attitude towards me, and it doesn’t matter how dumbed-down I am to myself to try to coexist with her. 

'I’ve even come up with the solution to have a pretend judge in interactions with her so she would try hopefully to treat me appropriately and professionally, which she does not do.'

But Cashman claimed she spent hours with her client and accepted collect calls but Boone has refused to cooperate. 

'I’ve spent over 20 hours going through her questions, going through her lists,' the attorney told the court. 

'When I try to update her with regard to the depositions that I took recently, she opted to exit the jail conference. 

'When I tried to review some things with regard to discovery as to things I wanted to make sure she was aware of, she walked out.' 

Boone admitted she walked out of meetings but insisted she did not want a new attorney.

She asked the judge to 'just let her know, please, to please be nice to me and have a welcoming attitude.' 

But Cashman said: 'I can’t spend all my time defending what I’m doing and at the same time be effectively preparing a case for trial.'

Jorge Torres Jr, 42, a father-of-three, had a history of domestic violence involving Boone. In 2018, he was charged with battery stemming from an alcohol-fueled altercation inside their home

The attorney has now filed a motion asking to withdraw from the case. She suggested that Boone either represent herself or she be provided one last lawyer. 

'The court can only go through this so many times with Ms. Boone coming to the court and there ending up being irreconcilable differences such that the counsel that you have appointed can’t move forward,' she said. 

Boone has complained about almost all of her previous representatives and her sixth lawyer Frank Bankowitz withdrew from the case after she called him a 'buffoon' and 'dud'. 

A hearing for the motion has not been scheduled yet but Boone's trial is set to begin on October 7.
