Karen Read: STS Files

Welcome to another episode of Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of True Crime…

A juror in the Karen Read murder trial recently reached out to defense attorney David Yannetti to clarify to him that the jury didn’t think Read knew she hit her Boston police officer boyfriend and that they found her not guilty of two of three indictments.

A new filing in Norfolk Superior Court on Monday indicated the jury determined that even if Read hit John O’Keefe with her Lexus SUV, she did not realize that she did.

In a prior affidavit, Yannetti quoted an unsolicited text message from “Juror B” that read, “No one thought she hit him on purpose or even thought she hit him on purpose.”

Welcome to another episode of Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of True Crime…

In this LIVE episode, STS Host and #BestGuests discuss how a fourth juror in the Karen Read trial has come forward to report that the jury found Karen Read "not guilty" of second-degree murder and leaving a scene of personal injury and death.

Read's attorneys are asking the judge to dismiss these two counts when the case goes to trial again...but this begs the question: Could a mistrial have been prevented? Our #BestGuests break this all down for us and explain what happened and what we could see the next time around.

Plus! An on-going investigation into the PD has now resulted in 1 officer's suspension and the other officer's re-assignment.
