In Karen Read's murder trial, was it deadly romance or police corruption? Jurors must decide

0
The fate of Karen Read is in the hands of jurors after a two-month murder trial in the death of her Boston police officer boyfriend. Jurors began deliberations Tuesday and must decide whether the Massachusetts woman angrily struck officer John O'Keefe with her SUV and left him for dead in January 2022. The defense says she was framed and that O'Keefe was actually beaten inside a fellow officer's home and then dumped out in the snow. Read is charged with second-degree murder, which carries a maximum penalty of life in prison, and other offenses. Crime bloggers and pink-shirted supporters have been tracking the trial's every detail.
