Finding An Unbiased Jury For A High-Profile Murder

On Tuesday, jury selection began in the second trial of Karen Read, the 45-year-old woman accused of killing her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O'Keefe, in an alleged hit-and-run in January of 2022. Read's case was first tried in April of 2024, but ultimately ended in a mistrial due to a "starkly divided" hung jury. Now, one year later, choosing jury members a second time around may be more challenging due to the case's high profile. Retired NYPD Inspector, Attorney, and FOX News Contributor Paul Mauro explains how Read's second murder trial could differ from the first, especially following evidence reexaminations and the prosecution bringing on a new, more experienced prosecutor.
