For the record and to post factual information which gets lost in this case:

-- April 2022, KerR testified in front of the grand jury… there was no 2:27 search.

-- The search wouldn't be "found" until March2023 when Richard Green misinterpreted data and assumed the timestamp was related to the search. The timestamp was instead related to the tab.

-- There would be zero reason for KerR to purposefully lie about KR asking JMc to search for hypothermia or how long it would take to die in the cold. Credit@JulieCar94
BBM I don't know how Kerry Robert's testimony to a Grand Jury could confirm whether or not Jen Mc made a Google search at 2.27am on Jan 29th 2022. Kerry wasn't hanging out with Jen Mc at her house at that time imo.

I don't see that as factual information at all. If that's a fact of this case then it's a bad fact. I think it's been established by now that Kerry Roberts told the Grand Jury what Jen Mc told her. That definately is a fact of this case, I agree with that. Jmo
 
During both the first trial and retrial of Karen Read, Judge Beverly Cannone denied motions by Read’s lawyers, who wanted to tell jurors two men who work for the firm ARCCA were hired by the Department of Justice -- meaning both defense experts Andrew Rentschler and Daniel Wolfe, testified they were hired by an unspecified third party.

Reportedly, ARCCA was contracted by the U.S. Attorney’s office for an investigation into the death of Read’s boyfriend, Boston Police officer John O’Keefe. The U.S. Attorney’s office has never confirmed or denied the investigation’s existence.

Contrary to popular opinion, the defense had no control over ARCCA's scope of work during the first trial. More specifically, under contract with the FBI, ARCCA was tasked with examining the damage on Read's car and O'Keefe's injuries to determine if they were consistent with a pedestrian collision. Their conclusions, which indicated O'Keefe's injuries were not consistent with being struck by a vehicle, were presented as evidence in Read's first trial.

During the first trial, the experts testified they were unaware that the subject crash and reconstruction related to KR and JOK. They also did not examine KR's vehicle still in the custody of Canton PD.

The next two experts who were questioned both work for high-profile forensic consulting engineering company ARCCA. Daniel Wolfe and Andrew Rentschler were two of three of its employees who worked on a third-party report about what caused O'Keefe's death, they said.

"The agency that retained us gave us a select quantity of file material related to this case. And, essentially, left it as an open-ended question. Ultimately, was the evidence consistent with a pedestrian interaction between Mr. John O'keefe and [Read's] Lexus," Wolfe said, when asked what the team was tasked with.

They didn't share information on what they concluded and the lawyers were careful not to mention who had commissioned the report, but Wolfe told the judge that the information was provided to them by the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI.

"We had no say in what material was handed over to us," he said.

Why did the judge allow these videos shown in CW case?? To me it's a distraction and interfers with her right and decision to testify.

Same thing - they come in under party opponent exception.

She has the right to not testify, but out of court statements by the defendant can often be admissible - which she will have been warned about by her attorneys.

Thank you for posting well sourced and moo factual history pertaining to this case.
 
Best way to beat a murder rap, have an unlimited budget to find attitude bias in witness and investigators… so the jury looks at that and not the evidence. Karen Read = OJ.

Except OJ did kill Ron and Nicole and KR didn't kill anyone in my opinion. The police work by the detectives in the OJ trial was actually quite thorough and the witnesses were pretty honest. They went after Furman and brought in the racial bias between the police force and the Black Community in Los Angeles at the time.

In Read we have multiple officers who were just horrible and lazy at their job and who were disciplined and in one case fired for their actions in this case. Practically none of the witnesses who the CW have called are believable and have been caught lying time and time and time again.

I saw these two gentlemen interviewed after trial1. They said they were given car A and body B and asked to assess damage/injury. Also said they didn't know it was for this case and neither did they no any individuals of the case.
 
Except OJ did kill Ron and Nicole and KR didn't kill anyone in my opinion. The police work by the detectives in the OJ trial was actually quite thorough and the witnesses were pretty honest. They went after Furman and brought in the racial bias between the police force and the Black Community in Los Angeles at the time.

In Read we have multiple officers who were just horrible and lazy at their job and who were disciplined and in one case fired for their actions in this case. Practically none of the witnesses who the CW have called are believable and have been caught lying time and time and time again.
KR video are the prosecution best weapon.
 
Unfortunately, I have not been able to truly follow the trial like the last one. Has anything been said by any journalists in court about how the jury seems to be reacting to the testimony?
 
If Karen Read was innocent, there’d be no need to be attacking each and every witness with such nonsense.
Respectfully, incorrect information provided to a grand jury under oath regarding a key piece of evidence is hardly nonsense. If I were ever accused of a crime I did not commit, I would want this kind of defense for me.
 
If Karen Read was guilty, why do all of the people who are so adamant that she is spend most of their time opining endlessly about her texts/voicemails/TV interviews and complaining that her defense attorneys are being really horrible and mean to the CW's witnesses, rather than pointing out how convincing Trooper Paul's reconstruction and Scordi-Bella's medical evidence is? Why don't they point out how competent, thorough and good-faith the investigation led by Mike Proctor was?
 
Even if you think she hit him, which I absolutely do not think she did, moo, it’s bad faith moo to think a conviction could or should even happen, the investigation was so terrible it’s a travesty and there will be no justice for JoK because of how awful the investigation was, and I don’t even need to get into the conspiracies, if you want to blame someone blame Proctor, and all the other LE not just investigating but involved as being apart of this, moo
 
Why did the judge allow these videos shown in CW case?? To me it's a distraction and interfers with her right and decision to testify. I saw many of her interviews and haven't seen anything that would incriminate her. I also watched the 1st trial. Were they word for word or verbatim, no. To me they are more believable that way and it is in her own words, her side of it all as she remembers it depending on the question asked. Hasn't every civilian testified as to how they remembered it ??

For instance her description of the 9 vodka drinks. She explained how the drinks she ordered were weak and at JOKs suggestion, she added a portion of another shot to one or more. She also explained that the last 2 drinks at the Waterfall were hardly touched as she was socializing with different people and left the drink at another table. IF drunk driving is so important to this case, they should ask everyone who admitted to driving drunk and have evidence to prove their answer.

What about BA and BH drinking all day long and driving from city to city AND then furnishing drinks to underage kids at a house party.
just an observation on my part .. but imo her making the decision to tell her story in her own words on national tv was her way to testify without having to get on the stand and take an oath. And saying it's okay that its not word for word verbatim? Her own defense team would tear that apart if they were cross examining her. That is exactly what they try to do to the civilians that can't seem to get the exact wording each and every time they were interviewed or had to testify.. right?

and as for BA, BH or anyone else at the party .. they are not the ones on trial.

If I lived in Canton or surrounding area, there is no way I would be happy about the MSP, the Canton PD or the DA/Court/Judges that we have been exposed to thus far (we all know their names). Any and everyone in that area should be scared to death that it could easily happen to them or one of their loved ones.
