NOT GUILTY MA - Professor Karen Read, 43, charged with murdering police officer boyfriend John O'Keefe by hitting him with car, Canton, 14 Apr 2023 #39 Retrial

  • #81

Before the court dealt with Read's motion to dismiss, one of her attorneys announced their plan to pursue civil allegations against numerous others. They announced plans to pursue allegations of civil rights violations, civil conspiracy and negligence against the Massachusetts State Police, Sgt. Yuri Bukhenik, Detective Lt. Brian Tully and former Trooper Michael Proctor. Read's team wants to accuse the Canton Police Department of negligence and to further accuse the Alberts, the McCabes and ATF Agent Brian Higgins of civil conspiracy and civil rights violations.

What a difference in judges. The judge yesterday wasn’t at all condescending and didn’t have a chip on his shoulder. He really kept things going but he let them all speak.

The O’Keefe’s lawyer already was whiny when talking about John and his niece. And I get that he is there to defend against Karen but after seeing the first two trials, his complaints against her seemed disingenuous. She didn’t kill him and go home to plot her story which involved traumatizing an already fragile girl.

Karen’s lawyer is fabulous! He has such a presence but in a different way from AJ. He speaks firmly and eloquently and that South African accent is the cherry on top.

Karen’s team is going to change this case from defence to offence and it’s barely started. Telling the judge they are suing the cops and the occupants of the house was glorious. Now they all have to pay lawyers and I can just see Jen going to Peggy and persuading her to settle.

I don’t think the O’Keefe’s are going to get any money out of this. They know Karen’s team is going to bring the same experts out and if they’re going to get experts of their own, they’re going to have to pay for it. After watching what happened in trial 2, which expert would go near this only to be ridiculed?
