NOTE: This will be a four-part series. There was way too much testimony that I was unable to cut out. Sorry for any inconvenience to those hoping I could do it in three episodes.

After Boston police officer John O’Keefe was found dead on a front lawn in January 2022, his girlfriend, Karen Read, was arrested. At her 2024 trial, prosecutors accused Karen of hitting John with her car and then leaving him to die in the cold. The defense, however, told the jury that Karen was framed and that there was a massive cover-up.
