The retrial of Karen Read, charged in the murder of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, is ongoing at Norfolk Superior Court. Prosecutors are nearing the end of their case, alleging Read drove drunk and intentionally hit O'Keefe after a night out. In contrast, the defense argues she was framed by law enforcement members protecting O'Keefe's associates, suggesting that he was attacked after entering a home. Key witness testimonies from forensic scientists and experts are expected to shape the arguments presented by both sides significantly.
Read's attorneys suggest that the investigation was tainted by a conspiracy among law enforcement to protect Brian Albert and his associates, leading to her wrongful accusation.
State Police Crime Lab scientist Christina Hanley is examining glass and plastic evidence related to the case, and jurors are keenly awaiting her complete testimony.
Prosecutors claim that Read was intoxicated during the incident and deliberately struck O'Keefe, while the defense argues he was brutally attacked after entering a home.
The prosecution plans to call a doctor and other experts to solidify their argument against Read, intensifying the courtroom drama as testimonies unfold.
