Prosecutors allege that Karen Read hit her boyfriend, Boston Police officer John O'Keefe, at about 12:45AM with her car when she left him off at a party on Fairview Road in Canton, MA and "left him to die in the middle of a snowstorm" after the two got into an argument earlier in the evening while the couple and Okeefe's work associates were at a local bar. She has been charged with second degree murder.
The defense argues in this hearing that their client has been kept from receiving important evidence through discovery after more than a year, with the Distract Attorney offering only "on-going excuses" as to why the defense has not received important physical evidence. The defense further argues that because of lack of State cooperation and due to the cost of private testing, bail should be lowered to help pay for these private tests. That their client is not a flight risk and will turn over her passport.
In this hearing the defense goes deeper in their attacks against the State, claiming that investigators intentionally said no plows went by the home in the early morning hours, but a plow driver did drive by at about 2:30am and saw no body in the yard in the early morning hours, but saw a "Ford Edge" parked in front of the house for about an hour, they say, further supporting the defense's theory that John O'Keefe was not killed when Karen Read left him off, but was bludgeoned in the house and brought out to the front of the home to die much later.
