Karen Read was acquitted of second-degree murder in the death of her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O'Keefe, but convicted of drunk driving. The jury deliberated on the case, which centered around conflicting narratives: Read's defense claimed a conspiracy among police to frame her, while prosecutors argued she left O'Keefe dying in the snow after striking him with her vehicle. This verdict marks a significant development in a case that has captured public attention and led to previous mistrials, reflecting the ongoing debate around accountability and justice.
No one has fought harder for justice for John O'Keefe than I have.
The defense maintained O'Keefe was killed inside the home and later dragged outside in a conspiracy orchestrated by police.
