The ongoing retrial of Karen Read for the murder of Boston police officer John O'Keefe focuses on intense courtroom testimonies and explosive voicemails. Read is accused of hitting O'Keefe with her SUV during a drunken rage after a night out. She left him outside 34 Fairview Road where he later died from exposure. While prosecutors claim she acted with intent, her defense suggests a conspiracy by law enforcement to protect friends of the homeowner. Testimonies from police officials defend the integrity of the initial investigation amidst claims of evidence mishandling.
"John, I f***ing hate you!" Read screamed in one voicemail at 12:37 a.m. on Jan. 29, 2022, the same morning O'Keefe was found unresponsive on a snowy lawn.
Read's lawyers contend she was a "convenient outsider" framed in a vast law enforcement conspiracy to protect the friends and family of homeowner Brian Albert.
Retired Canton Police Lt. Paul Gallagher adamantly denied giving special treatment to Brian Albert during the early investigation into O'Keefe's death.
Massachusetts State Police Lt. Kevin O'Hara testified that he saw "fresh, undisturbed" snow in the search area when he first arrived at 4:56 p.m. on Jan. 29.
