KAREN READ: Cop killer or victim?

Provocative title?

In the early morning hours of January 29, 2022, Boston Police Department Officer John O'Keefe was found dead outside the home of fellow Boston Police Officer, Brian Albert, in Canton, Massachusetts. O'Keefe had been dropped off the night before by his girlfriend, Karen Read, to join a party hosted by Brian Albert and Jennifer McCabe. Upon being discovered, he was transported to a local hospital where cause of death was listed as blunt force trauma and hypothermia.

Three days later, Read was arrested and charged with manslaughter, motor vehicle homicide, and leaving the scene of a deadly crash.

But was Karen Read guilty of anything? As defense attorneys will, Read’s "Dream Team" came up with an alternate theory of the crime, that O’Keefe was badly beaten, or maybe attacked by a dog, or both, inside the Fairview Road residence after Read dropped him off, and then he was dumped outside and left to die.

On its face, this might sound preposterous to you, but, Oh, we are just getting started. This strange tale turned the so called “Boyfriend Cop Murder Trial” into a national, nay international sensation. Newspaper accounts, electronic media, magazine spreads, podcasts (here and abroad) sprung up like poison ivy.

Join me and Youtuber, Kevin Lenihan, as we navigate the maze that is the Karen Read Case.
