Karen Read was acquitted of murder and manslaughter charges related to the death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, though she was found guilty of drunk driving. The jury foreman expressed doubts about the prosecution's case, asserting that there was insufficient evidence to prove Read caused O'Keefe's death, despite claims she struck him with her SUV. Jurors focused on the evidence presented and noted significant holes in the prosecution's theory, leading to reasonable doubt regarding Read's culpability.
Karen Read is innocent, and she didn't do this crime. No one could prove that she did this crime. So I looked at her from Day 1 as an innocent woman that needed to be proven guilty, and I don't think any of that was shown in this process.
We just had to lock down and figure it out through the evidence.
There's too many holes for us to fill, and it wasn't our job to fill those holes. We needed to have the reasonable doubt, and we had it over all the aspects of the investigation.
