This week on America on the Road, we bring you an exclusive interview with Matt Duffield, Ford Explorer Brand Manager, for a deep dive into the all-new 2026 Ford Explorer Tremor. In a one-on-one conversation with Host Jack Nerad, Duffield walks us through how the Explorer Tremor trim raises the bar for off-road-ready family SUVs. He shares how customer feedback shaped the new model's development and explains the performance upgrades that make the Tremor more trail-capable. As Duffield details, the Explorer Tremor boasts improved ground clearance, special suspension tuning, and dedicated off-road tires. The Ford exec also discusses the Explorer's evolving role within Ford's SUV lineup, and how this rugged new variant fits into the bigger picture. Co-host Chris Teague's road test features the all-electric 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, and it's nothing short of a revelation. The Ioniq 5 N brings track-car personality to the EV world with 641 horsepower, launch control, and simulated gearshifts that make it feel more like a rally car than a crossover. Hyundai's N division didn't just tweak the standard Ioniq; they reengineered it. The result is blistering performance, precise handling, and a surprising driving experience. But in the end, does it load on too much tech and deliver too little visceral involvement? Chris and Jack will offer their thoughts. But it still retains everyday usability, offering a spacious interior and decent range. Jack calls it one of the most exciting EVs to hit the road—fun, fast, and futuristic. In our second road test, Jack Nerad takes the 2025 Lexus RX 500h F SPORT Performance AWD for a week-long spin. He discovered it's the most dynamic RX yet, pairing a turbocharged 2.4-liter engine with a high-output electric motor to deliver 366 horsepower and plenty of soul-satisfying torque. This isn't your in-laws' RX, that's for sure. Instead, the well-styled SUV is more sharp-edged and tech-loaded than you would imagine a hybrid crossover to be. With a panoramic roof, F Sport styling fillips, and a plush interior featuring a 14-inch touchscreen and Mark Levinson audio, the RX 500h walks the line between luxury and performance without sacrificing fuel efficiency. Chris and Jack will offer additional details in the road test segment this week In the news this week, Tesla has quietly launched a limited robotaxi pilot in Austin, Texas. Just weeks ahead of stricter state autonomous vehicle regulations, Tesla's driverless Model Y program runs invite-only rides under close monitoring. While it's a milestone for Tesla, we have to wonder if it meets the standards for readiness and safety that it should. Also newsworthy is the fact Toyota is set to raise prices across several models in July, with average increases of $270 for Toyota vehicles and $208 for Lexus models. Inflation, rising import costs, and competition are cited as reasons for the increases, which mirror recent moves by Mitsubishi. General Motors is betting big on affordability with the upcoming 2027 Chevy Bolt. Expected to launch in early 2026, reporting by Motor Trend suggests it will be built on the Ultium platform and deliver a 300-mile range and an estimated $30K price tag. It could become a welcome alternative for budget-conscious EV buyers — if such people exist. In other news of note, Stellantis may offload Maserati amid steep losses and brand bloat. With sales down over 50% and no new models on the horizon, internal tensions are building. The company also reshuffled its executive team, with new CEO Antonio Filosa slashing direct reports to streamline operations. We wrap up this episode with a listener question from Seibert in Bend, Oregon, who asks: “Gas is pretty expensive here, so I think I might get a plug-in hybrid. What is the best plug-in hybrid under $40,000?” Jack and Chris weigh in with their top picks. Tune in for all this and more on America on the Road. Jack Nerad's newest book

Karen Read Trial FULL Closing Arguments From Hank Brennan Prosecution In this critical episode, we present Special Prosecutor Hank Brennan's complete closing argument in the Karen Read murder retrial, where he methodically builds the Commonwealth's case that Read struck and killed her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, with her SUV in January 2022. Brennan, the seasoned attorney brought in specifically for the retrial, delivered an hour and twenty minute presentation that wove together witness testimony, forensic evidence, and Read's own words to argue she committed second-degree murder. "She was drunk, she hit him, and she left him to die," Brennan stated emphatically, repeating this phrase multiple times throughout his closing. The prosecutor painted O'Keefe as "a good man" who "helped people," noting how he took in his orphaned niece and nephew, before arguing that on the night of his death, it was O'Keefe who needed help—and Read chose to abandon him. Central to Brennan's argument was the physical and digital evidence. He presented data from Read's Lexus showing she reversed at 24 mph with 74% throttle pressure, combined with O'Keefe's phone data showing he exited the vehicle and never moved again after the alleged collision. "We know in that window she hits him, because he never moves again," Brennan argued, using the technical data to pinpoint the exact moment of impact. He emphasized the debris field of taillight fragments found at the scene as irrefutable proof of a collision. Brennan effectively used Read's own statements against her, playing video clips from her media interviews where she questioned "Could I have hit him? Did I hit him?" and acknowledged she could have "clipped him." He contrasted this with multiple first responders who testified they heard Read repeatedly say "I hit him" at the scene. The prosecutor argued these weren't questions but admissions from someone "coming to terms with the moment." Addressing the defense's conspiracy theory head-on, Brennan acknowledged former lead investigator Michael Proctor's "distasteful" and "dishonorable" conduct but argued it didn't negate the physical evidence or testimony from "independent core people" who witnessed Read's statements. He dismissed claims of a cover-up as incompatible with the testimony of paramedics and firefighters he called "heroes" who were simply doing their jobs. In his powerful conclusion, Brennan displayed a photo of O'Keefe and declared: "John O'Keefe is not a body. John O'Keefe is not a buffalo on a prairie. He was a person, and he was murdered by Karen Read." This complete presentation showcases Brennan's prosecutorial strategy of combining technical evidence with emotional appeals to secure a conviction. #KarenRead #HankBrennan #ClosingArguments #Prosecution #JohnOKeefe #MurderTrial #CourtTV #Commonwealth #SecondDegreeMurder #BostonPolice #CantonMA #TrueCrime #JusticeForJohnOKeefe #Retrial #VehicularHomicide #ForensicEvidence #TrialCoverage #NorfolkCounty #LegalAnalysis #BigBreakdown 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

“Be a homie & let us know what you think”Grammy-nominated instrumentalists, underground innovators, and boundary-pushing creators—the women of beat making deserve your attention. After a brief hiatus, I'm back with a special episode that travels across continents to bring you the sounds of female producers who are revolutionizing music production but aren't getting their proper recognition.The journey begins with MetalFlowerz, a seasoned beat maker who drops gems about her creative process. She describes inspiration as coming "like waves" and shares how she finds creative sparks in everyday moments—from nature to playing with her children. Her perspective on overcoming writer's block offers wisdom applicable beyond music: "When I get stuck, I just go back to normal mode. That's where you will find things will come to you."From there, we embark on a global expedition of sound. We visit Sarah, The Illstrumentalist, whose Grammy nomination speaks volumes about her talent. We travel to Baltimore for LeXus aka AkousticFunkbot "Foodie Fingers," swing by California to experience Illixie's "Secret Garden," and drop into Austin where Meddah delivers the captivating "Miracle." The musical voyage continues through Paris, the UK, Hungary, and even Antarctica, before concluding in Argentina with Anto Pla's distinctive rhythms.What strikes me most about these women is not just their technical prowess, but how each brings a unique voice and perspective to beat making. Their styles range from soulful and melodic to experimental and boundary-pushing, proving there's no single "female sound" but rather a rich tapestry of creative expression. As I exclaim throughout the episode: "This is fire!"If you're looking to expand your musical horizons and support women who are changing the game, this episode is your essential guide. Check out each artist's full catalog, subscribe to their platforms, and spread the word. These beat queens deserve spots on your playlists and in conversations about who's shaping the future of music production. Let's give them their flowers while they can still smell them.Support the showEdited, Mixed and Mastered by GldnmndPodcast Website Link: The Rec Show PodcastSubscribe to Our YouTube Channel: Press Here

Karen Read Day 31: Prosecution CONFIDENT No Rebuttal Needed After Defense's Weak Finish The defense just rested in the Karen Read murder trial, and their final witness may have sealed her fate. Dr. Andrew Rentschler, a PAID defense expert receiving $24,000, desperately tried to claim it's "physically impossible" that Karen Read killed John O'Keefe. But here's what the defense doesn't want you to know about the REAL evidence. In this critical analysis, we expose: How defense experts DELETED incriminating text messages with attorneys Why Rentschler was caught hiding at a defense team lunch "eating a ham sandwich" The DNA evidence on Read's bumper that physics can't explain away Her shattered taillight pieces found EXACTLY where O'Keefe died Why innocent people testify, but Karen Read REFUSES to take the stand The prosecution's case is clear: Karen Read, drunk and jealous after a night of fighting, struck her boyfriend with her Lexus and left him to die in the snow. No amount of hired experts can change these facts: ✓ Read admitted dropping O'Keefe at the house ✓ Her taillight was mysteriously shattered ✓ O'Keefe's DNA was on her vehicle ✓ She gave multiple conflicting stories about that night While Rentschler talks about theoretical physics and laboratory calculations, he conveniently ignores that real murders don't happen in controlled environments. His testimony crumbles under one simple question: If Read didn't hit O'Keefe, how did her taillight pieces end up at the exact spot where he died? The prosecution wisely chose not to dignify this desperate defense strategy with rebuttal witnesses. Their evidence speaks for itself. After 31 days of testimony, the defense's conspiracy theory requiring multiple police officers and civilians to frame an innocent woman is laughable compared to the straightforward truth: a drunk driver killed her boyfriend.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/qgkQm-VgMu0Day 30 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on June 10, 2025. Defense Attorney Alan Jackson started the day by coming in hot and accused the Prosecution of "burden shifting," implying they were improperly trying to make the defense prove their case. He provided a transcript that the Prosecution opened the door to ask Dr. Laposata about dog bites when Brennan inquired Dr. Russell about Dr. Laposata's report about dos bites. The Judge Denied questioning about dog bites but okay to question about animal bites. The judge offered to give an instruction about burden shifting to the jury but Jackson declined it.There was confusion about whether Dr. Wrenchler had seen X-ray evidence, as he testified there were none done to the arm, while Dr. La Pasada's testimony indicated X-rays did exist. This point raises questions about what evidence was provided to Dr. Wrenchler and how rebuttal will go.During Cross Examination and the Morning Break, Brennan wanted to impeach Dr. Laposata's credibility with past issues from her time as a medical examiner, including an audit and handling of the Station nightclub fire. The court allowed some of this to be brought up during cross-examination but not all.A juror's question led to the court clarifying what it meant when video evidence was "stricken" during testimony showing that all jurors are paying attention and really want to get the understanding right.The Defense's last witness, Dr. Andrew Rentschler, a Biomechanical Engineer at ARCCA, testified about how ARCCA was hired by a government agency and was not given information about the case. They were only give the circumstances and to try to recreate it. His analysis of John O'Keefe's injuries were that the injuries were not consistent with being struck by the Lexus, specifically the tail light. He determined that the force required to produce the skull fracture was significantly higher than what could result from impact with the taillight at a speed of 15 mph.There were several disputes regarding the content of Dr. Rentschler's PowerPoint presentation, with objections to text containing hearsay and ultimate opinions. The court ordered the presentation to be edited, with certain text removed. This will be finalized on Day 31 before the jury comes in.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

He reflects on how Toyota embeds learning and support into problem solving, where pulling the cord is seen as a learning opportunity, not a failure. That mindset became foundational for his later work, especially when managing enterprise-wide strategy through Hoshin Kanri. We also explore what Hoshin Kanri really is--and what it isn't. Mark challenges the overemphasis on tools like the X-matrix and instead advocates for focusing on purpose, alignment, and leadership behavior. He explains how strategy deployment at Toyota was never a one-way cascade, but a dialogue grounded in humility, curiosity, and shared responsibility. Whether you're new to Hoshin or struggling to sustain it, Mark offers insights that can help any leader make strategy a living, breathing part of organizational culture. Questions, Notes, and Highlights: How did you end up working for Toyota, and what led you to Japan? What was your educational background, and did you already speak Japanese before moving there? What was your initial role at Toyota, and how did it relate to their global expansion? Did you meet or work with John Shook during your time in Japan? How did Toyota develop you into an industrial engineer despite your background in English writing? What was it like working in a Toyota plant, and what did you learn from that experience? Did you experience any early mistakes or learning moments while working the line? How did your role evolve after leaving Japan, and how did you get involved with Hoshin Kanri in North America? What challenges was Toyota North America facing that made Hoshin Kanri so essential? How did you facilitate alignment and catchball between Toyota's plants and leadership teams? How do you define Hoshin, strategy, and Hoshin Kanri? Why do you prefer not to use the term "strategy deployment," and what's the issue with top-down-only thinking? How do you coach executives to embrace catchball and bottom-up engagement? How do you balance executive direction with frontline input in strategy development? What role does psychological safety play in making Hoshin Kanri work? How does A3 problem solving fit into the Hoshin process, and how does it help build capability? Why is it important for executives to practice PDCA and engage in direct problem solving? What's the difference between long-cycle and short-cycle PDCA, and how should leaders manage both? Why does it take most organizations a couple of years to fully embed Hoshin Kanri? What lessons do companies learn when they start with too many strategic initiatives? Why did you choose not to include the X-matrix in your book, and what are your thoughts on its use? What business problems does Hoshin Kanri best help organizations solve? How can Hoshin Kanri help clarify the distinction between daily management and long-term strategic work This podcast is part of the #LeanCommunicators network.

CASE CLOSED Expert Testimony Confirms Karen Read's SUV Could Kill at 24 MPH Impact BREAKING: The Karen Read murder trial reached a pivotal moment when defense expert Dr. Daniel Wolfe's testimony BACKFIRED spectacularly, actually CONFIRMING that her Lexus SUV could absolutely deliver a fatal blow at 24 mph. Despite being hired by the defense team for $24,000, Wolfe's comprehensive ARCCA crash testing inadvertently validated the prosecution's vehicular homicide theory that Karen Read killed Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe by backing into him during the January 29, 2022 blizzard in Canton, Massachusetts. The scientific evidence is now undeniable: Read's taillight fragments containing O'Keefe's DNA, combined with vehicle data showing her SUV reversing at exactly 24.2 mph at 12:32 AM, creates an airtight case for premeditated murder. Wolfe's crash test dummy analysis proves that impact at this speed would absolutely shatter the taillight and cause fatal injuries consistent with O'Keefe's autopsy results. This episode breaks down the devastating forensic evidence that seals Karen Read's fate. We examine how the physics of vehicle-pedestrian impact at 24 mph creates the exact damage pattern found on Read's Lexus, analyze the DNA evidence that proves O'Keefe was struck by her SUV, and explore why even her own expensive expert witness couldn't dispute the prosecution's timeline. The federal Department of Justice's involvement in originally commissioning ARCCA adds credibility to findings that support the prosecution's case. Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer provides expert analysis on how this testimony eliminates reasonable doubt and why Karen Read's conviction for second-degree murder is now inevitable. Justice for John O'Keefe is finally within reach as the scientific evidence proves beyond any doubt that Karen Read used her vehicle as a weapon to kill the 16-year veteran Boston police officer who was raising his orphaned niece and nephew. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #MurderTrial #ExpertTestimony #TrueKrime #Justice #VehicularHomicide #PoliceOfficer #Massachusetts #Guilty #ForensicEvidence #DNA #SUV #TailLight #Murder #Trial #Conviction 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

Daniel Wolfe, an accident reconstructionist for ARCCA testified for the defense on Friday, displaying a number of damning videos that essentially proved the Commonwealth's case. Wolf showed demonstrations where Karen Read's model of Lexus hit a crash test dummy, spins him around, damages his arm causing near identical holes in the dummy's shirt and practically knocks him out of his shoe. Had the dummy not be suspended it a reasonable person could surmise he would of lost his shoe or shoes. In this episode we go over some of the history of the ARCCA witnesses and their collusion with the defense team - all while telling the jury they were independent, non-biased witnesses.Get access to exclusive content & support the podcast by becoming a Patron today! https://patreon.com/robertaglasstruecrimereportThrow a tip in the tip jar! https://buymeacoffee.com/robertaglassSupport Roberta by sending a donation via Venmo. https://venmo.com/robertaglassBecome a channnel member for custom Emojis, first looks and exclusive streams here: https://youtube.com/@robertaglass/joinThank you Patrons!Stephanie Lamberson, Maryellen Sudol, Mona, Karen Pacini, Jen Buell, Marie Horton, ER, Rosie Grace, B.

30 Seconds of Chaos: FBI Analysis of the Timeline That Could Convict Karen Read In true crime, timelines often lie—or at least bend. But not this time. In this Hidden Killers episode, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer walks us through the critical 30-second window that may convict Karen Read. From 12:31:30 to 12:32:00 AM, Read's Lexus initiates a reverse maneuver at 74% throttle. At the exact same moment, John O'Keefe's phone ceases all activity. These two events, drawn from separate digital ecosystems—vehicle telemetry and cell metadata—create a forensic overlap that's hard to ignore. Coffindaffer explains how cases are built from moments like these. Not speculation, not theories—but timestamped, cross-verified digital events. We also look at what the defense has (and hasn't) done to explain away this overlap, and why timelines like this are the most compelling form of evidence a jury can see. In just 30 seconds, the prosecution says Karen Read wrote the entire story of this case—one data point at a time. #KarenReadTrial #FBIAnalysis #DigitalForensics #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #VehicleData #TimelineEvidence #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeBreakdown #CrimeSceneScience 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

Karen Read Timeline EXPOSED: FBI Expert Unpacks the 12:32 AM Trigger Point What happened at exactly 12:32 AM on January 29, 2022? In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer helps unpack the forensic timeline that could determine Karen Read's fate. We break down the Lexus vehicle data that shows Read's SUV was placed in reverse at precisely 12:32 AM—and explain how this moment lines up exactly with the final movement recorded on John O'Keefe's cellphone. Is this a forensic coincidence… or digital proof of impact? Coffindaffer lays out how agents and forensic teams interpret overlapping digital events, what it means to correlate car event data with phone metadata, and why the prosecution is leaning hard on that exact second. We also examine how the defense is scrambling to refute this data-driven narrative—and what jurors are most likely to take away.

Big Breakdown: Karen Read BOMBSHELL Week As Forensic Expert Destroys Her Defense In this video, we break down one of the most crucial turning points in the Karen Read murder trial: the forensic testimony of crash reconstruction and biomechanics expert Dr. Judson Welcher. This wasn't just dry data—it was a methodical unraveling of the defense's entire alternate timeline, backed by engineering certainty, 3D laser scans, and vehicle telemetry that left little room for doubt. Welcher took the stand and presented detailed vehicle data showing Karen Read's Lexus accelerated in reverse at 74% throttle, hitting nearly 24 miles per hour, at the exact moment John O'Keefe's phone stopped registering activity. That moment—12:32:14 a.m.—was cross-validated by cell phone experts and aligned with the SUV's event data recorder. This wasn't speculation. It was math, physics, and digital forensics doing the talking. He went further. Using an identical Lexus RX350, blue tail light paint, and comparative biomechanics, Welcher demonstrated exactly how O'Keefe sustained arm injuries that defense experts claimed could not have come from a car. The match was precise—even down to bruising and laceration alignment. He explained how the trajectory of injuries to O'Keefe's hip and head also matched a glancing, accelerated reverse impact. In response, the defense tried to downplay the data, even mocking the idea that a Lexus could “launch into space.” But Welcher didn't flinch. He stayed focused, clarified the science, and held the courtroom with calm authority. Every attempt to rattle him fell flat—and that's what made his testimony so devastatingly effective. This is the video you need to watch if you're still on the fence about Karen Read's guilt. The Lexus doesn't lie. Neither does the data. And Karen's own post-arrest words—“What if I clipped him?”—only tighten the noose. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #CrashReconstruction #ForensicEvidence #JudsonWelcher #TrueCrimeAnalysis #HiddenKillers #Biomechanics #DigitalForensics #TrialBreakdown 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

Defense Case Starts and they don't want to call Proctor | Case Brief Watch the full coverage of the live stream on @TheEmilyDBaker YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/live/0Coi3nBtXcQ?si=5VFXwAl2xxgxxDpBDay 24 of the Karen Read retrial focuses on the defense's case and a motion to dismiss. Initially, the motion to dismiss is discussed, highlighting how it is generally denied unless there's a complete lack of evidence. The court typically favors the prosecution's evidence for this motion. The defense then presents its first witness, a tech expert and accident reconstructionist, who analyzes reports from Burgess and Welchure. The expert discusses the timing of the text stream event (1162-2), the backing event of Karen Read's vehicle, and John O'Keefe's phone time. He simplifies complex slides and presents 30 different timing possibilities between the Lexus text stream time and O'Keefe's phone. He points out that three of these possibilities show the text stream event ending after O'Keefe's phone's last manual button click. The expert also addresses whether Karen Read's car ever registered a collision in its data, concluding there was no registration of a collision during relevant trigger events. Cross-examination by Brennan explores the expert's reliance on others' data and whether the Lexus ever registered a collision before. It is clarified that the system is geared toward vehicle-to-vehicle collisions, not vehicle-to-pedestrian ones. Further discussion includes a second chip-off procedure and an SD card found with date and time information, clarifying the timing of key cycles. Brennan's cross-examination also focuses on a chart of infotainment calls and the expert's understanding and assumptions about the data. The discussion highlights that the expert agrees the closest points in time to the 11622 event, specifically the three-point turn maneuver, are the most reliable for syncing the clocks. The day ends with discussion about Michael Proctor's text threads and the defense's attempt to authenticate them without calling Proctor as a witness. The Commonwealth argues Proctor needs to be called for cross-examination. The judge reserves a ruling on this matter.

Judge Cannone ruled against allowing the defense to question Dr. Welcher further about Trooper Paul and Dr. Irini Scordi-Bello. The definition of "rely" and its implications in questioning witnesses were discussed. Dr. Welcher remained on the stand for the duration of the half-day session. The defense was allowed to cross-examine the Commonwealth's new accident reconstruction expert about what they relied on from the previous expert, but not necessarily all of their opinions. The defense would have to call Trooper Paul themselves.Dr. Welcher was questioned about the suspension system and height variance of the Lexus were discussed, the 3D modeling process, and about the glass on the bumper that the expert's assumptions was that it was inclusive. Cross-examination concluded after the morning break.The Commonwealth rested its case, and the Defense will argue their motion to dismiss on Day 24 and call their first witness, their tech expert, Matthew DiSogra.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

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/IduAs7XWVEUDay 22 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 28, 2025. After a brief Direct Examination by Special Prosecutor, Hank Brennan, of their Accident Reconstructionist, Dr. Welcher, Cross Examination took up the whole day and will continue on Day 23. Defense Attorney, Robert Alessi, ross-examination was rigorous and focused on challenging the credibility, methodology, and conclusions of the Commonwealth's expert witness. Dr. Welcher was repeatedly admonished by the court for looking at his computer and searching for information during the cross-examination, rather than answering directly from memory.Alessi questioned Dr. Welchre about the significant amount his firm, Aperture, was being paid by the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office ($325,000), and the details surrounding the purchase and sale of a Lexus exemplar for testing. The defense sought to highlight potential bias due to financial incentives.Alessi challenged inconsistencies in Dr. Welchre's testimony, such as the distance the Lexus traveled in reverse during a test (initially said to be 53 feet, then 87 feet), and the explanation of the 8 mph threshold for tail light breakage.Alessi delved into Dr. Welcher's use of data and images from Trooper Paul's report, questioning the extent to which Dr. Welcher relied on that information in his analysis. There was a dispute about a drone image and other diagrams, leading to a "Voir dire" (examination outside the presence of the jury) to clarify the sources of these materials.The voir dire aimed to clarify the sources of Dr. Welcher's materials and to determine the extent to which he relied on Trooper Paul's report or other evidence. It highlighted the defense's effort to question the independence of Dr. Welcher's analysis and the Commonwealth's attempt to defend it. The voir dire concluded with plans to continue the cross-examination the following day, with the understanding that time was limited due to a juror's scheduling issue.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

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/3DAtOqbCSh0Day 21 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 27, 2025. Week six of evidence included a voir dire of Dr. Welcher, the Commonwealth's accident reconstructionist. Concerns were raised about updated slides and changes to the presentation at the direction of Special Prosecutor, Hank Brennan, without informing the defense. Dr. Welcher also mentioned being "inundated" with emails about issues with Burgess' CV but he was told by the court not to read or discuss them.The accident reconstructionist focused on the "trigger event," during a three point turn and its connection to Ian Whiffin's last point of contact. There was also discussion of variance, the three-point turn of the Lexus, and the backing event. Dr. Welcher analyzed the Lexus's tech stream data, which records data before and after a trigger event, such as reversing and accelerating. The data showed the backing event occurred about 8 minutes after the three-point turn. There are discrepancies and confusing aspects of Dr. Welcher's testimony and PowerPoint slides.He also revealed that the Lexus's tires were spinning and slipping during the backing event, and the car traveled a total of 87 feet. Dr. Welcher ultimately concluded that the Lexus struck John O'Keefe, which led to objections and a sidebar discussion.
