Karen Read's retrial for the alleged murder of her boyfriend, Officer John O'Keefe, is set to begin with opening statements on April 22. A jury of eighteen has been formed, following a meticulous selection process involving nearly 600 prospective jurors over two weeks. Prosecutors allege that Read acted recklessly under the influence, while her defense claims she is a victim of a conspiracy. With the trial expected to last six to eight weeks, this marks her second attempt to contest charges after a mistrial occurred last July.
Opening statements in Read's highly anticipated retrial are slated for next Tuesday, April 22, bringing jury selection to a close with eighteen jurors confirmed.
Read is accused of backing her SUV into her boyfriend and has pleaded not guilty to multiple charges, claiming a broad law enforcement conspiracy to frame her.
