During a press conference, Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox denied any connection to the Karen Read case and rejected claims of pressuring Officer Kelly Dever into changing her testimony. Read, who was acquitted of murder charges but convicted of driving under the influence, has lawyers asserting she was framed in a law enforcement coverup. Dever testified that she was threatened with perjury accusations by Read's lawyers, but also reaffirmed that no one in law enforcement influenced her testimony. Dever confirmed a conversation with Cox, who urged her to tell the truth.
Cox firmly stated, "I have nothing to do with Karen Read," denying any influence over the testimony of Officer Kelly Dever during the trial.
Read's lawyers alleged that Dever faced threats of perjury accusations unless she testified regarding her observations of the night of O'Keefe's death.
