Livestream: Kerry Roberts back on the stand in Karen Read murder trial
Briefly

The retrial of Karen Read for the murder of Officer John O'Keefe has begun, with key witness Kerry Roberts providing testimony. Roberts, present when Read discovered O'Keefe's body, recounted a frantic call from Read the morning after O'Keefe was found dead in Canton. Prosecutors allege that Read intentionally struck O'Keefe with her SUV, while the defense claims a conspiracy among law enforcement members to frame Read, suggesting O'Keefe was attacked elsewhere. The trial follows a previous mistrial due to a deadlocked jury, with both sides preparing to present contrasting narratives of the events.
The first thing she said was, 'Kerry, Kerry, Kerry, John's dead.' And then she hung up.
It was about preserving loyalty.
Roberts testified she awoke to a frantic call from Read the morning of Jan. 29.
Hank Brennan painted a vivid picture of the crime scene and giving jurors a taste of the science and data he claims points to Read's guilt.
