Karen Read's Defense CRUMBLES: Judge Rules No Evidence of Police Conspiracy Justice moved closer for fallen Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe today as Judge Beverly Cannone demolished Karen Read's baseless conspiracy defense. In a pivotal June 12, 2025 ruling, the judge found ZERO evidence supporting Read's wild claims that Officer O'Keefe was murdered by other people and she was framed in an elaborate police cover-up. The prosecution's case remains rock solid: Karen Read, intoxicated after drinking at multiple bars, deliberately reversed her Lexus SUV at 24 mph into her boyfriend during a violent argument, then fled the scene leaving him to die in a snowbank. The defense's desperate attempt to blame homeowner Brian Albert and ATF agent Brian Higgins was rejected by Judge Cannone, who found no evidence either man had any motive to harm Officer O'Keefe. Defense attorney David Yannetti's last-ditch motion for directed verdict was swiftly denied, with prosecutors highlighting the defense witnesses' "conflicting testimony" and obvious "bias and advocacy." The defense's failure to call Brian Albert, Brian Higgins, or even fired investigator Michael Proctor to testify speaks volumes - they knew these witnesses would destroy their conspiracy fiction. This video analyzes why the judge correctly limited the defense's ability to falsely accuse innocent law enforcement officers of murder. We examine the solid evidence showing Read's guilt: her intoxication, the couple's deteriorating relationship, the physical evidence of vehicular homicide, and her consciousness of guilt in fleeing the scene. As closing arguments approach Friday morning, the prosecution stands ready to secure justice for Officer John O'Keefe. Assistant District Attorney Adam Lally and Special Prosecutor Hank Brennan will present the clear, compelling case against Karen Read, who faces second-degree murder charges and life in prison for her heinous crime. The defense's conspiracy theory has crumbled. The evidence is overwhelming. It's time for the jury to deliver justice for a fallen hero who deserved better than being left to die by someone who claimed to love him. #JusticeForJohnOKeefe #KarenReadGuilty #OfficerDown #KarenReadTrial #ThinBlueLine #BackTheBlue #BostonPolice #MurderTrial #DrunkDriving #TrueCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Send us a textWeek 7-The Prosecution is struggling mightily, no witness to date has provided any overwhelming evidence of Karen Read's guilt. Boston Patrol Officer Kelly Dever was a complete and utter disaster. She simply appeared to be lying, why is the only question. This witness actually used the words “False Memory” after saying she saw the Chief of police and ATF agent Brian Higgins for a long time, by themselves. What a S-Show! The week did not get any better for the prosecution as the week proceeded. Hank Brennan the “special” prosecutor, apparently grated on the jury, with his cross examination of Dr. Marie Russell, Officer Barros and Lucky Loughlin, Jurors were reported to be openly rolling their eyes at the prosecution, never a good sign. We finished the week with some substantial forensics from Dr. Wolfe and a laughable cross examination by Hank “Squeaky” Brennan. Corruption is on open display, cmon down!

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/-SN-jb2bT-0Day 27 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on June 4, 2025. When prosecution's usually focus on making a case clearer, in this case, the prosecution's strategy seems to be to muddy the evidence. Brian Loughran, a snow plow driver, said he saw a Ford Edge parked on the street going up Fairview around 3-4am. There's a procedure to call in vehicles parked on the street during snow removal, but he did not do so. While Special Prosecutor, Hank Brennan, did the cross-examination, he focused on online activity, specifically about a blogger talking about him. He stated he knew someone was talking about him online, but he didn't feel threatened or harassed. He also mentioned that his wife had recently passed, and he wasn't paying attention to online activity.Karina Kolokithas, a friend of John and Karen who was at the Waterfall Bar, spoke about how everyone was in a celebratory mood and having a good time. John O'Keefe was described as being "over the moon excited" for his niece and her future. She also mentioned that John and Karen were "sweet with one another." She talked to Karen Read for more than 50 minutes and noted that Karen was drinking water all night. She did not perceive Karen Read to be intoxicated. This point was highlighted as potentially persuasive for the jury regarding Karen Read's level of intoxication. Her testimony about the jovial evening was contrasted with the defense's presentation of the waterfall video, which focused on the interactions between Brian Higgins, Brian Albert, and Chris Albert, suggesting potential doubt about the overall mood of the evening.RESOURCESRetrial Day 25 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agSsaDTCZJcWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/agSsaDTCZJcDay 25 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on June 2, 2025. During week seven of the trial, the defense is currently presenting its case, and they are keeping in mind that the prosecution will have rebuttal witnesses.Judge Cannone allowed Former Trooper Michael Proctor's texts to be admitted into evidence while being read by his childhood friend, Jonathan Diamandis. When the texts messages began to get really egregious, the witness didn't feel comfortable reading it allowed so Special Prosecutor, Hank Brennan, read them allowed while the witness confirmed what was said. This didn't offer for the truth of the matter but instead, focusing on his state of mind and potential bias in the investigation.A key witness, Kelly Dever, a former Canton police officer, testified about seeing Chief Burkowitz and Brian Higgins with Karen Reed's SUV for a long time the night of John O'Keefe's death. She later claimed this was a false memory influenced by a timeline. She also mentioned being interviewed by the FBI and being threatened with perjury by the defense team.Dr. Marie Russell, a dog bite expert, discussed John O'Keefe's injuries to his right arm. Dr. Russell believes the injuries are consistent with a dog attack and not with a motor vehicle accident. The cross-examination of Dr. Russell is ongoing, focusing on her expertise, marketing, and opinions. Cross examination will continue on Day 26!RESOURCESLatest Emily Show Episode - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4hWb8uQjsIWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

“They Told Me to Lie”: Officer Dever Says Karen Read's Defense Threatened Her In a dramatic and revealing moment from the Karen Read murder trial on June 2, 2025, former Canton police officer Kelly Dever took the witness stand—and what she said stunned the courtroom. Dever testified that Karen Read's defense team pressured her to falsely testify that she saw Brian Higgins and then-Canton Chief Ken Berkowitz in the Sallyport garage with Read's SUV—an event the timeline proves she could not have seen. When Dever refused to comply, she says a male member of the defense threatened her with perjury charges unless she repeated the false claim in court. Instead of folding under pressure, Dever took the high road and contacted the FBI, who informed her she would not be liable for perjury, as her retraction was made in good faith based on newly revealed facts. The moment marked a credibility catastrophe for Read's legal team and raised serious questions about their tactics. Why would a defense team threaten a police officer with perjury to secure testimony they knew was false? And what does it say about the strength—or desperation—of their case? This episode breaks down every crucial moment from Dever's testimony: her shift records, her admission that she originally misremembered the timeline, her calls to the FBI, and her unwavering stance on telling the truth—even if it meant facing off with aggressive attorneys. We'll also look at how this testimony fits into the broader prosecution narrative and what it reveals about the alleged conspiracy defense that's beginning to unravel under oath. For true crime viewers who care about truth, justice, and the dangers of defense overreach, this is one moment in the Karen Read trial you can't afford to miss. #KarenRead #KellyDever #TrueCrime #WitnessIntimidation #CourtroomDrama #PerjuryThreat #JohnOKeefe #PoliceTestimony #FBI #LegalEthics Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Fan Mail Me BrrrruuuuunnndenA dead police officer in the snow. A broken taillight. Flirty text messages. Three competing theories. The Karen Reed murder trial has all the elements of a perfect crime thriller, except this Massachusetts case is chillingly real.We dive deep into the mysterious death of Officer John O'Keefe, examining the evidence, inconsistencies, and troubling questions surrounding who's really responsible. With a blood alcohol level of 0.29, was O'Keefe simply too intoxicated, falling and succumbing to the elements? Did his girlfriend Karen Reed strike him with her vehicle as prosecutors claim? Or was there an altercation with fellow officer Brian Higgins over those flirtatious texts that led to a potential cover-up?The physical evidence raises serious doubts about the official narrative. A suspiciously intact taillight fragment found by the body, missing surveillance footage, witnesses who've changed their stories, and police officers who've since been fired from the force – all point to something more complex than the prosecution's straightforward case against Reed.Most disturbing is how this case exposes potential corruption within the justice system. When police investigate their own, the truth becomes malleable. As one host notes, "They will write anything they want" when it comes to police reports. With the first trial ending in a hung jury and key witnesses mysteriously not returning for the second trial, we're left questioning whether justice is actually being served.Whether you're fascinated by true crime mysteries or concerned about accountability in law enforcement, this examination of the Karen Reed case will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about how justice works when the blue line closes ranks.Support the showCome back every Tuesday for a new episode each week.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/P_Lo2vXvHyMDay 17 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 16, 2025. The court addressed juror conduct issues, with a jurors making facial expressions and muttering. A stipulation was read regarding State Police troopers present at the autopsy, specifically noting Troopers Keefe and Watson were present, not Former Trooper Michael Proctor.Andre Porto, the Forensic Scientist, testimony revolved around DNA evidence found on a piece of glass and the tail light, with John O'Keefe's DNA and DNA from two unknown individuals being present. The defense strategy focused on questioning the thoroughness of the investigation and emphasizing that unknown DNA samples were not tested against other individuals of interest like Brian Higgins. Legal arguments arose regarding the chain of custody of evidence and delays in its submission. The judge ruled on objections and addressed issues related to rebuttal witnesses and ARCA expert testimony. There were discussions about new information and reports from experts causing potential time shifts and debates over whether this information was truly new or if it was previously disclosed.The day ended with testimony from Ash Vallier, a Forensic Scientist who pieced together the tail light, with discussions about which pieces fit and which did not. Some items from evidence bags were not fitting together mechanically and other items from different bags were fitting together. Defense Attorney, David Yannetti, crossed Vallier, highlighting potential issues with the chain of custody and who had access to evidence, particularly with Trooper Proctor. Trooper Michael Proctor was identified as submitting clothing evidence to the lab six weeks after the incident and the person who brought in the all of the pieces in the dash 7 series that fit together. Judge Cannone addressed concerns about new expert reports from Aperture, ruling that they were not grounds for undue surprise or prejudice but were ample ground for cross-examination by the defense. The Judge also addressed the ARCCA expert issue, allowing limited rebuttal testimony of Aperture only as to the new opinions by ARCCA from their May 7th report. The Judge stated the defense could recall witnesses under certain circumstances and addressed the long weekend break, stating it would give the defense the time they had requested.

Karen Read Trial Day 14 Breakdown & The 6 MAJOR Moments As Sgt. Bukhenik Testifies In this deep-dive episode of Hidden Killers, Tony breaks down the courtroom fireworks from May 12, 2025, when Massachusetts State Police Sgt. Yuri Bukhenik took the stand in the Karen Read trial. While earlier testimony raised serious questions about investigator bias, this chapter of the trial was about evidence—cold, hard, and forensic. The prosecution worked to reestablish control with redirect testimony, where Bukhenik stated firmly that Karen Read's Lexus was towed directly to the Canton Police garage—disputing the defense's implication that evidence was tampered with en route. We examine the newly introduced surveillance footage from inside the garage, the timeline of the SUV's arrival, and the mirrored security camera feed that had briefly caused confusion. Tony unpacks what was found at the crime scene: John O'Keefe's sneaker, his phone under his body, a broken cocktail glass—and what those pieces suggest about what happened on the snowy lawn outside 34 Fairview Road. Sgt. Bukhenik explained why he believed the injuries pointed to a vehicle impact, not a fight. Plus, the state introduced video showing the Lexus' taillight already broken before police had custody of the car. But the defense didn't sit quietly. They showed surveillance footage of Brian Higgins at the Canton station at 1:28AM—despite his earlier denial of late-night activity. He's seen walking, on the phone, moving between vehicles, carrying what looked like a shovel. Why was that important? It contradicted previous claims and raised new timeline questions. This episode lays it all out—no speculation, just facts. We take you frame-by-frame through a day of testimony that could reshape the outcome of this entire case. #KarenReadTrial #JohnOKeefe #BrianHiggins #ForensicEvidence #HiddenKillers #YuriBukhenik #TrueCrimeCommunity #JusticeForJohn #CourtroomDrama #CantonGarageVideo    Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

20 Texts That Could Destroy Karen Read's Defense | Full Breakdown In the Karen Read trial, one of the most disturbing pieces of evidence comes not from blood or broken glass—but from her own fingertips. Newly revealed text messages between Karen Read and ATF agent Brian Higgins expose a web of flirtation, deception, and full-blown narcissistic manipulation. In these texts, Read falsely claims that her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, cheated on her during a New Year's vacation. The truth? He was talking to a friend of his niece—no romantic involvement, no betrayal. But Read took that innocent moment and twisted it into a full-blown accusation. Why? Because she wanted to justify her own attempt to hook up with Higgins. This video breaks down the full timeline of messages presented in court. From casual vacation banter to the chilling “John died” text sent just hours after O'Keefe's body was found, we dive deep into every message—and what it reveals about Read's mental state. This is more than a salacious side plot. This may be the key to understanding motive, intent, and Karen's psychological profile as the prosecution paints her as someone capable of cruel deception to preserve her own image. Watch as we dissect these messages line by line and explore how narcissists rewrite reality, weaponize sympathy, and paint themselves as victims—all while leaving destruction in their path. #KarenRead #TrueCrime #Gaslighting #JohnOKeefe #NarcissisticAbuse #BrianHiggins #MurderTrial #KarenReadTrial #ManipulationTactics #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On Day 13 of Karen Read's retrial, Massachusetts State Police Sgt. Yuri Bukhenik resumed his testimony, facing rigorous cross-examination by defense attorney Alan Jackson. Bukhenik, who supervised the investigation into the death of Boston police officer John O'Keefe, was questioned about the conduct of former Trooper Michael Proctor, who was dismissed for sending derogatory texts about Read during the investigation. Jackson challenged Bukhenik on his oversight responsibilities, highlighting that Bukhenik had not reprimanded Proctor at the time. Bukhenik defended the investigation's integrity, asserting that all evidence pointed in one direction, but acknowledged that failure to supervise could lead to investigative errors.The court also delved into the nature of Read's relationship with ATF agent Brian Higgins. Sgt. Bukhenik read aloud flirtatious text messages exchanged between Read and Higgins, which the defense presented to suggest a motive for a potential third-party culprit. The prosecution, however, argued that these messages indicated a strained relationship between Read and O'Keefe, supporting their theory that Read acted out of jealousy. Additionally, the defense questioned the timeline and discovery of taillight fragments from Read's SUV, suggesting they were found only after the vehicle was impounded and snow had melted, casting doubt on the thoroughness of the initial investigation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:The complete texts between Karen Read and Brian Higgins

Watch as we dissect these messages line by line and explore how narcissists rewrite reality, weaponize sympathy, and paint themselves as victims—all while leaving destruction in their path. #KarenRead #TrueCrime #Gaslighting #JohnOKeefe #NarcissisticAbuse #BrianHiggins #MurderTrial #KarenReadTrial #ManipulationTactics #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Read's attorney questioned Bukhenik about "flirtatious" text exchanges between Read and Brian Higgins, an agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, who was present at a restaurant where the couple drank the night before O’Keefe's demise and at the location where O’Keefe was later found in the snow.

On Day 13 of Karen Read's retrial, Massachusetts State Police Sgt. Yuri Bukhenik resumed his testimony, facing rigorous cross-examination by defense attorney Alan Jackson. Bukhenik, who supervised the investigation into the death of Boston police officer John O'Keefe, was questioned about the conduct of former Trooper Michael Proctor, who was dismissed for sending derogatory texts about Read during the investigation. Jackson challenged Bukhenik on his oversight responsibilities, highlighting that Bukhenik had not reprimanded Proctor at the time. Bukhenik defended the investigation's integrity, asserting that all evidence pointed in one direction, but acknowledged that failure to supervise could lead to investigative errors.The court also delved into the nature of Read's relationship with ATF agent Brian Higgins. Sgt. Bukhenik read aloud flirtatious text messages exchanged between Read and Higgins, which the defense presented to suggest a motive for a potential third-party culprit. The prosecution, however, argued that these messages indicated a strained relationship between Read and O'Keefe, supporting their theory that Read acted out of jealousy. Additionally, the defense questioned the timeline and discovery of taillight fragments from Read's SUV, suggesting they were found only after the vehicle was impounded and snow had melted, casting doubt on the thoroughness of the initial investigation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:The complete texts between Karen Read and Brian HigginsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/Fpf2EGgVDzgDay 13 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 9, 2025. Sgt. Yuri Bukhenik is back on the stand with Cross Examination and Defense Attorney Alan Jackson keeps cornering him about Proctor's true involvements. At one point he says that he gave evidence bag to someone but didn't know who. A significant portion of the day involved reading text messages between Brian Higgins and Karen Read into evidence. These texts were described as potentially "flirtatious" and revealed details about Karen's relationship with John O'Keefe, her feelings about children, and the presence of ring cameras at O'Keefe's house. The defense aimed to highlight these texts to suggest the investigation should have looked more closely at Higgins. Trooper Bukhenik was assigned to find the location of the Albert's dog, Chole, who was shortly rehomed after John O'Keefe's death. Chloe is supposed now named Cora but we are not sure if that is the same dog because they were rehomed twice after the Albert's. There were not transfer records, rehoming records, purchase records and the validity of the veterinary records are questioned because the dog's name and current owner were not on the document.Alan Jackson asked if he was aware that there were more than 20 official police reports were not recorded for more than 100 days from the time of the event in question? There were 11 reports that were more than 300 days from the time of the event? Three reports were more than 400 days from the time of the event? Four reports were more than 500 days from the time of the event? The longest delay of any report in this investigation was 581 days? Bukhenik acknowledged that he was not aware of the exact dates and delays. He tried to explain that in a perfect world, reports would be written as events happen but implied there were reasons for the delays.It was revealed during the cross-examination of Sergeant Yuri Bukhenik that there were significant delays in interviewing witnesses from Ricky D'Antuono's truck. While Ryan Nagle, who was also in the truck, was interviewed in February 2022, Ricky D'Antuono, who drove the truck, were not interviewed until September 2023. This is approximately a year and a half later!The defense appears to be anticipating that the Commonwealth will not call certain witnesses (Brian Albert, Brian Higgins, Ricky D'Antuono, and potentially Trooper Proctor), and they are trying to introduce their desired information through Sergeant Bukhenik's testimony. Cross Examination continues on Monday.RESOURCESWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

Yuri Bukhenik - Mass State Police is still on cross examination. Mr Jackson starts questioning the integrity of the searches done at 34 Fairview that produced broken tail light pieces. It was never specified exactly where each piece was found. He also points out large pieces were missed when the witness last visited on Feb 10th, but Trooper Proctor found one the very next day and more later. He also questions who wrote the details on the evidence bags Before lunch the defense has the witness read through flirty texts between Karen and Brian Higgins. Towards the end of the day, they revisit the Waterfall surveillance and end the day questioning the witness about Chloe and her rehoming. Donate: (Thank you for your support!

What Surprises Could Be In Store At Karen Read's Re-Trial, Attorney Eric Faddis Gives The Preview What happens when a murder trial starts to look more like a Netflix drama than a courtroom proceeding? Welcome to the Karen Read case—where dogs are suspects, mystery men emerge from the shadows, and legal arguments sound like rejected Law & Order scripts. With former prosecutor Eric Faddis at the table, Tony Brueski dives into the latest twists of the alleged hit-and-run retrial. The judge is letting the defense point fingers at Brian Albert and Brian Higgins again, but only after a dramatic narrowing of who they can actually blame. The infamous third-party theory still lives, even if it's being propped up by little more than a shadowy “guy in the night” and a dog named Chloe with questionable bite marks. Is this a strategic push to confuse the jury just enough to squeeze out another mistrial? Or is the defense throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping something sticks? Either way, it's not just a trial—it's a full-blown credibility war. Why does this case feel less like justice and more like improv night at a true crime convention? #KarenRead #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #EricFaddis #CourtroomDrama #MurderMystery Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?
