"Read, 44, is accused of killing her boyfriend, the Boston police officer John O'Keefe, 46, by hitting him with her sport-utility vehicle and leaving him to die in a snowbank."
"The judge Beverly Cannone declared a mistrial on the fifth day of unsuccessful deliberations, after the jury indicated multiple times that its members were deadlocked while deliberating a verdict."
"Prosecutors argued that Read killed O'Keefe in an act of domestic violence and then fled the scene as he died from multiple head injuries and hypothermia."
"Defense attorneys maintained that Read was framed by corrupt officials attempting to cover up the murder of O'Keefe by others, presenting evidence of fabricated evidence and false testimony."
