In the Karen Read murder retrial, retired Lt. Paul Gallagher testified about crime scene evidence collected outside 34 Fairview Road, where Boston Officer John O'Keefe was found. Gallagher noted no signs of struggle or dragging at the scene, despite Read's defense claiming a conspiracy involving O'Keefe's death. The investigation involved using a leaf blower to uncover snow and the collection of potential blood evidence in Solo cups, raising questions about handling and contamination at the scene.
Gallagher testified that no evidence suggested anything had been dragged through the yards, indicating O'Keefe was not moved prior to being found in the snow.
'The same kind of Solo cups that we all see at backyard barbecues?' defense attorney Alan Jackson asked. Gallagher replied, 'Yep, they hold liquid terrifically.'
