Highlights:
Many protesters were outside the hearing of Karen Read who is accused of hitting her boyfriend with her car, Boston Police officer John O'Keefe, with intent after dropping him off for an after-hours party at Boston Police officer Brian Albert's home in Canton, MA. The defense contends O'Keefe was murdered in the house.
Several motions, including the defense request seeking that the Norfolk DA's office be disqualified in this case.
- Discussion regarding DNA on the taillight.
- The defense says Elizabeth Proctor, wife of investigator State Trooper Proctor, privacy rights are outweighed by Karen Read's right to a fair trial. At contention is the degree of friendship between the Proctors and prosecution witnesses who were inside the home and how it impacted the investigation and evidence.
- Jennifer McCable's lawyer, who is alleged friends with Elizabeth Proctor, and who found with Read, O'Keefe's body outside the home in in the early morning hours, says Rule 17 is being weaponized against his client.
