Karen Read accused of backing into boyfriend and leaving him to die *MISTRIAL*

This woman didn't do this. I'd be willing to bet that someone in the house did it. Someone in the house looked up "How long will it take for somebody to die in the cold." Karen couldn't have done that search.

Is there a cover up conspiracy?

I have been following trials in the US and never knew this.. It is the opposite in UK and Europe.

The opposite is true here in Missouri also. The prosecutor goes first. I was surprised to see that the defendant went first in this one.
 
One of the saddest things to me is that John O'Keefe's parents think she killed him, and they're finding friendship with those who were involved in the cover-up.
 
Well, those good ol' boys in Canton can't seem to stop rigging murders:



Morrissey’s office is under scrutiny by federal investigators over allegations of a police coverup involving the 2022 death of Boston police Officer John O’Keefe in Canton. Closing arguments are expected Tuesday in the second-degree murder trial of O’Keefe’s girlfriend, Karen Read. She has pleaded not guilty.

A bit more on that. Take with grain of salt though, but interesting theory here.

Defense was just arguing what they perceive to be a problem with the jury forms. There is not a check box for not guilty on the involuntary lesser included charge. (I think that is what was said)

Judge said it is fine, as the guilty box would not be checked.

  • 10 a.m. The judge re-enters. She and Alan Jackson are discussing the verdict slips. Jackson wants the a "Not guilty" check block included for the lesser charges under Count 2: Manslaughter while operating a motor vehicle under the influence.
  • 9:35 a.m. The lawyers do not object. The judge writes a note to the jury that is ok. She leaves the courtroom. Alan Jackson and the court clerk, Jim McDermott, seem to be having a disagreement about whether something was "on the record." Sounds as if the judge will be coming back.
  • 9:30 a.m. The judge re-enters the chamber. Judge says the jury wants to conclude today's deliberations and board the bus by 4pm because one of them has "a long-standing obligation."
  • 9:25 a.m. The lawyers are back in the courtroom. So is the Read family. Here comes the O'Keefe family. The court clerk tells me there's a question from the jury.
  • 9:15 a.m. The judge sends the jury back to the deliberation room. She tells the attorneys to stay in the courthouse until 10am and to be back by 330pm. She says they need to be ready to be in their seats within 5 minutes.
  • 9:13 a.m. Assistant District Attorneys Adam Lally and Laura McLauglin arrives. Lally is carrying a pile of documents and begins reviewing them. Read and her attorneys are sitting at the defense table with nothing in front of them.
  • 9:12 a.m. The O'Keefe family arrives including John's parents and his brother Paul. During closing arguments, Colin Albert, Jen McCabe, Brian Albert and Kerry Roberts were sitting with the O'Keefe's. They are not here now.
  • 9:10 a.m. Karen Read is here. She's smiling as she talks with her attorneys David Yannetti and Elizabeth Little. Alan Jackson is talking with Read's friends and family members. The O'Keefe family is not yet here.
  • 9 a.m. The jury will return to continue its deliberations. They deliberated for about three hours on Tuesday afternoon. The final jury is made up of six women and six men. At the end of the judge's instructions, she encouraged them to take their time.

  • 12 p.m. The jury returns. She tells them they already have all the available evidence. Then she begins reading her amended instructions about how to consider the vehicular manslaughter/OUI charge.
  • 11:58 a.m. The judge agrees to the change: "Not guilty of the offense charged or any lesser offense."
  • 11:55 a.m. Alan Jackson listens to the judge's proposal, confers with the other defense attorneys. Wants the vehicular manslaughter slip to be amended to say "Not Guilty" of manslaughter and lesser charges.
  • 11:50 a.m. Jury question: Can we request the SERT team report? Judge says she sees no problem with that.

Was there a SERT team report or no? Someone said there wasn't one.
