MA - Professor Karen Read, 43, charged with murdering police officer boyfriend John O'Keefe by hitting him with car, Canton, 14 Apr 2023 #25 Retrial

[Anniesflowers]

At a hearing on April 28, 2025
"A crash reconstructionist whose testimony is expected to be key to Karen Read's defense admitted on the stand Monday, without jurors present, that he sent notes to her team during the first trial and received information about prior testimony despite a sequestration order.
Dr. Daniel Wolfe testified during the first trial that damage to Read's SUV – the alleged murder weapon – was inconsistent in regard to a collision with John O'Keefe, the Boston police officer found dead on a colleague's front lawn during a blizzard on Jan. 29, 2022.
He took the stand again Monday as part of a contentious evidence hearing as special prosecutor Hank Brennan raised issues with delays in discovery a week into Read's second murder trial; the first ended with a deadlocked jury."

Thank you! The violation of the sequestriation order occured between the DOJ and ARCCA, which has nothing to do with the defense. If Judge Cannone was truly bothered by it, she would have forbade them from testifying. ARCCA did communicate with the defense during T1. How else could they coordinate travel and times needed? In addition, why wouldn’t the defense review their conclusions with ARCCA prior to them testifying? I recall several CW witnesses talking about how they prepped with Brennan. Based on other trials I’ve watched, conferring with witnesses isn’t illegal or unethical.
The CW had an opportunity to do the same thing, but they didn’t like ARCCA’S results.

So Chloe’s new name is Cora???

But no recorded record of it…… Hmmmmm……

Chloe is now Cora, and the new owners did NOT get Chloe/Cora from the Alberts! There was a person with the last name of Riley who was the intermediary. Or maybe Riley also got her from someone else, since there’s no purchase or adoption records that Ms. Riley had.

Chloe needs to lawyer up IMO

LOL yes she sure does! Best thing I have read/heard all day! Made me laugh and smile!

 

[kuromiiiilove]

YB didn’t list who the newest owners are?

A responsible dog lover, owner does not change an adopted dog's name, who especially has had that name for several years. The dog is living in a confused state, not VT, as it is. A thoughtful and intelligent dog adopter would not do that, unless the need for in a victim witness protection program for dogs. IMO

She said Jackson made repeated misrepresentations. That is misconduct. The question was what sanction to apply and it was simply too close to trial to revoke his PHV. Had she found out earlier i believe she would have booted him.

IMO.

Sigh. She noted misrepresentations in discovery timing, not fraudulent intent or ethical violations that would justify barring testimony or revoking PHV on the spot. If it were as serious as you’re suggesting or was deliberate misconduct Cannone could have issued stronger sanctions, even close to trial. Judges don’t just wave off actual deceit because of scheduling. She didn’t issue stronger sanctions, because this wasn’t that. You’re framing a procedural delay as malicious conduct, and even the court didn’t go that far.

So someone else w/last name Riley re-homed Chloe to a farm in Vermont. But the vet's documents submitted as evidence by YB are for a dog shown with no name and no name of the new owner of said dog?

THIS!!! You would never change a dog’s name at that age with a name that doesn’t even sound similar. I wish we knew if she was microchipped because those records could have been obtained from the vet and/or the chip company.

he's now pulling the Jen McCabe where he is shown his work and still says he doesn't remember, must be something in the water only the cops and their friends drink in the Canton area

Wasn't she a police dog prior to living with the A's? You would think that, as a Law Enforcement canine officer, she would have been microchipped.
IMO.

Nicole said she was a rescue so I am not sure.

There's something coo-coo with cops in Canton!

This is also not a dog such as a lab, mixed, cocker spaniel etc.. THIS dog was trained and owned by Brian Albert for a long time. It is a particular kind of german shepherd as well. LE uses these kinds of dogs. IMO This dog also has attacked, loose, a woman walking her own dog, I believe, a neighbor. The reason Albert's said they 'rehomed' the dog. This happened a while before JOK's death there I believe too. Please. IMO

 

[ShadyLady]

Double negative: I am NOT unconvinced after seeing bar videos that Chris A was not involved in setting up what happened to John.

Interview of a witness was 1 1/2 years later??

BTW, YB tried to not say the year when AJ asked him for the date….but of course AJ followed up with that

Well if you want to hide the dog, you might change the name. It sure would be nice to talk to the new owners to find out exactly how they came to get this dog and what they were told about why it needed to be rehomed.

I am not sure if she was a Malinois. I thought I read or heard that she didn’t make it as a police dog but I can’t remember where so I may be wrong. I believe Nicole said she was a Shepherd mix that was a rescue from Texas. MOO.

It's all good, some of the CW witnesses have testified their memory gets better with time, go figure

Wow.
20 official police reports not recorded for more than 100 days from John’s death.
11 reports that were written more than 300 days after the Johns death.
3 written more than 400 days after John’s death.
