Podcasts about Massachusetts State Police

Massachusetts State Police testimony dominated the courtroom today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She has pleaded not guilty and is mounting an insanity defense, with attorney Kevin Reddington arguing she was in the grip of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication at the time of the killings.Trooper Mark Farioli testified he collected six blood vials and a urine sample from Clancy at the hospital, executed under a search warrant — the kind of evidence collection that doesn't happen unless investigators are already building a case. Trooper Leah O'Connell, who worked as a forensic evidence tech at the time, walked the jury through how that evidence was logged and moved through the chain of custody, the unglamorous paperwork trail that's supposed to keep a case from falling apart on a technicality. Trooper John Santos testified about executing the search warrant on the Clancy home itself, where investigators found books, workbooks, and pamphlets about postpartum depression and prescription medications — material the defense may lean on, and material prosecutors will likely frame differently.None of it is dramatic on its face. All of it is foundational. Prosecutors are expected to argue Clancy understood the nature of her actions despite the defense's mental-health claims. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out of the home running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial, underway in Plymouth Superior Court, is expected to last several weeks.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

 The Lindsay Clancy murder trial moved from crime-scene documentation into toxicology this week, and the picture got more complicated. Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother charged with strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023, faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and Kevin Reddington's insanity defense hinges on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Trooper Johnathon O'Loughlin of the Massachusetts State Police walked the jury through the photographs, drawings, and notes he made of items of interest in the case — the visual record everything else gets measured against. Then things got more pointed. Hillary Griffiths of the Crime Lab's toxicology unit testified to the drugs actually present in Clancy's blood at the time of the killings. Lisa Yelle, who worked toxicology at the lab when the incident occurred, explained the "general unknown screens" run on Clancy's blood and urine — tests that check for hundreds of substances and return a simple detected or not-detected result. No editorializing, no guessing. Just what showed up and what didn't.That's precisely the kind of testimony an overmedication defense either leans on or has to explain around. Prosecutors Jennifer Sprague and Shanan Buckingham let the numbers speak. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. The trial continues before Judge William F. Sullivan in Plymouth Superior Court.Links: Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

1961 - Lincoln, Massachusetts. On the afternoon of October 24, 1961, a quiet suburban neighborhood in Lincoln, Massachusetts became the setting for one of New England's most haunting mysteries. When neighbors realized something was wrong at the home of 31-year-old Joan Risch, they stumbled on a scene that has puzzled investigators for more than six decades. Bloodstains marked the kitchen floor, with smears suggesting someone had tried to wipe them away. Joan's 2-year-old son was found crying upstairs, while her young daughter wandered outside looking for help. But Joan herself was gone. For investigators, the evidence painted an unsettling picture—but not a clear one. As witness accounts emerged and detectives began piecing together the day's events, each new clue seemed to raise more questions than answers. More than six decades later, one question still remains: What happened to Joan Risch? Part 2 will be released on 8/11/26. If you have any information about the Joan Risch case, please contact the cold case unit of Middlesex County, led by the Massachusetts State Police, at (781) 897-6600.

Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/TfmW8rnJ-rg  The wrongful death case involving Karen Read has seen a surge of judicial orders and motions as both sides clash over discovery deadlines and alleged violations. Read's legal team filed motions to clarify the record, arguing that information the court believed was improperly leaked—specifically regarding Michael Proctor's mental health status—was already public knowledge through social media before any impoundment orders. However, the judge dismissed these motions as an improper use of the procedure, while simultaneously expressing frustration with "overly broad" subpoenas from Read's team and non-compliance from third parties like the Massachusetts State Police. With a discovery deadline looming in August, the court has ordered attorneys to confer and narrow their requests or face further judicial intervention, though discovery regarding Proctor currently remains stayed.

When Michael Proctor took the stand during the first Karen Read trial, he called his own messages about the woman he was investigating “juvenile” and “unprofessional” and insisted they had “zero impact” on the investigation. When Robert Devine was confronted by the POST Commission about his alleged conduct with Sandra Birchmore, he allegedly said she “lied about everything.” When the state police union responded to Proctor's suspension, they said it appeared to be based on nothing more than “text message exchanges.”Juvenile. Personal. Regrettable. Human. She lied. Every response from every officer and every institution follows the exact same playbook: minimize, isolate, redirect.But an eighty-seven-page lawsuit filed against Canton and the Massachusetts State Police alleges the documented record tells a very different story. According to the complaint, Proctor and former Canton Sgt. Sean Goode exchanged messages spanning more than a decade — communications that allegedly include racial slurs, antisemitic statements, discussions of planting evidence, and a derogatory slur about Sandra Birchmore, the woman at the center of a federal case alleging she was pursued by officers starting when she was a teenager and later killed by one of them.In the Sandra Birchmore case, four officers have been decertified or permanently barred from policing. In the Karen Read case, the lead investigator was fired and pulled from other prosecutions. Both cases happened in Canton. Both went through the same DA's office. Both needed the federal government to step in.And through all of it, not one person on the inside has said the words: the culture was the problem. This piece asks why — and whether the silence itself is the answer.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Every case Michael Proctor ever investigated now carries a question mark — and that question mark just got a lot bigger. According to a lawsuit filed against the Town of Canton and Massachusetts State Police, the fired state police trooper who led the investigation into John O'Keefe's death had been exchanging messages with Canton Sgt. Sean Goode for more than a decade. Messages that, according to the complaint, allegedly include racial slurs, antisemitic statements, discussions of planting evidence on people, and a derogatory comment about Sandra Birchmore — the woman whose death in her Canton apartment was initially ruled a suicide and is now at the center of a federal case against former Stoughton detective Matthew Farwell.Proctor was already pulled from the Brian Walshe prosecution because the state couldn't trust his testimony. Defense attorneys across multiple other cases he investigated have pushed for access to his communications. And now the documented record shows that the contempt wasn't limited to one investigation or one person — it allegedly spanned years, departments, and the kind of language that reveals exactly how these officers saw the communities they policed.On the Birchmore side, four officers from the Stoughton Police Department have been decertified or permanently barred from law enforcement. According to federal prosecutors, three of them allegedly became involved with the same young woman they met through a department youth program. The medical examiner changed Birchmore's manner of death to “undetermined” more than five years after she died.The through-line connecting both cases isn't geography, although both happened in Canton. It's a culture where officers allegedly believed they were untouchable — and where every institution that should have caught the behavior either looked the other way or genuinely didn't register it as wrong. The families of Sandra Birchmore and John O'Keefe are the ones paying for that failure.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Sean Goode resigned from the Canton Police Department amid an internal affairs investigation. Michael Proctor was fired from the Massachusetts State Police. Four officers connected to the Sandra Birchmore case have been decertified or permanently barred from law enforcement. And a lawsuit alleges that the documented record of misconduct between Proctor and Goode stretches back more than ten years — a decade of messages that, according to the complaint, include racial slurs, antisemitic statements, discussions of planting evidence, and a derogatory slur directed at Sandra Birchmore herself.Officers are being removed. But is the culture that produced them being addressed?That's the question at the center of this piece. According to federal prosecutors, three Stoughton police officers allegedly became involved with the same young woman they met through a police youth program — and none of it was caught internally until long after her death. According to Read's lawsuit, Proctor and Goode allegedly exchanged hateful messages for a decade without a single person in either agency flagging it. Both cases ran through the same Norfolk County DA's office. Both required federal intervention.Every time these officers were confronted, the response followed the same pattern: the messages were “juvenile.” They were “personal.” They had “zero impact” on the investigations. One officer's family called it “wrongful termination” and said the messages prove he's “human.” Another allegedly said the woman at the center of the allegations “lied about everything.”Nobody has said the culture was the problem. Nobody has acknowledged that the institutional environment allowed this to happen. And until that changes, the answer to “is it still happening” is the one that should concern every person who depends on these departments: there's no evidence it's stopped.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Episode 243 of the Transition Drill Podcast explores law enforcement identity, career pressure, and life after the job for veterans and first responders navigating the reality that service can cost more than people see. Medically retired Massachusetts State Trooper Tony Bova shares his story on dyslexia, divorce, burnout, and what it takes to build purpose again when the uniform can't be your whole life anymore.Tony Bova grew up in Massachusetts in a close Italian family, but school was never easy for him. He was diagnosed with dyslexia early, struggled academically, and spent years feeling like he had to work harder than everyone else just to keep up. That didn't push him away from policing. In a lot of ways, it pulled him toward it. He found that while paperwork and report writing were a grind, handling problems in real time fit how he was wired. That became even clearer when he worked as a police cadet at UMass Amherst and realized this was the career he wanted.But getting there wasn't simple. Tony talks about how long and frustrating the path into law enforcement was, including background issues that kept biting him even when he was trying to be honest. Before landing in the Massachusetts State Police, he worked through other roles that kept him close to the profession, including loss prevention, special police work, hospital policing at Mass General, and summer police work in Provincetown. Those jobs gave him a taste of the work while he kept pushing for the career he'd spent years chasing.Once he got to the state police, Tony did the job well and built the career he'd worked toward for roughly a decade. But the conversation gets honest about what came with it. He talks about the pressure inside the profession, the toll of constant fear-based thinking around retirement and job security, and how major personal pain, especially an arduous divorce, hit harder than the work itself. After surgery and time away, his perspective changed. He started looking at life outside the job and decided he didn't want to be one of the people who retire, lose purpose, and fall apart.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comSPONSORS:GRND CollectiveGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://thegrndcollective.com/Promo Code: TRANSITION15Blue Line RoastingGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://bluelineroasting.comPromocode: Transition10Frontline OpticsGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://frontlineoptics.comPromocode: Transition10

1993. Chelmsford, Massachusetts. 23-year-old Deborah Lynne Bates, known as Debbie, was trying to start over after leaving her abusive ex, George, with whom she shared a child. She wasn't perfect, but she was determined to build a better life. One February night in 1993, seven months pregnant, Debbie stepped out of her apartment for a pack of cigarettes and vanished. She never came home. Police treated her disappearance as routine, but her family knew she would never abandon her young son. The case lay practically dormant until 2004, when a gruesome discovery that was meant to stay buried turned up on the side of the hideaway—raising questions no one was ready to answer. If you have any information on what happened to Deborah Bates, please contact the Massachusetts State Police at the Middlesex District Attorney's office at 781-897-6600.

The Kelsey Fitzsimmons trial brings David Strong with the Massachusetts State Police to the stand in this segment.The Kelsey Fitzsimmons trial is underway in Essex Superior Court in Massachusetts. Fitzsimmons, a North Andover police officer, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon after allegedly pointing her service weapon at fellow officer Patrick Noonan during a restraining order service at her home in June 2025. Prosecutors say she raised the gun at Noonan and pulled the trigger — the gun did not fire because there was no round in the chamber. The defense maintains Fitzsimmons was in the grip of a postpartum mental health crisis and the gun was turned on herself, not on Noonan. She has waived her right to a jury, leaving her fate entirely in the hands of Judge Jeffrey Karp.True Crime Today delivers real-time trial coverage as it happens — key testimony, critical cross-examinations, and the moments that matter.

We had hoped to drop this yesterday but wartime exigencies got in the way. The message is just as relevant today - the holiday of Purim was on Tuesday, March 3. It commemorates a miracle - when the Jews in ancient Persia were ordered by a King's decree to be murdered. Every last one. And yet, by a series of coincidences, they were spared. That was thousands of years ago. Since that time Jews have faced many tyrants who were determined to end their existence. The most recent and current one was Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He led a regime obsessed with destroying Israel and Jews. The historical arc is fascinating. And real. The decree in ancient Persia was real. Hitler was real. And Khamenei - until a few days ago - was real.I thought we'd take a breather from missiles and bomb shelters and reflect on the historical arc into which this wild war fits. Neatly.I spoke with two fabulous rabbis: my old friend from London, Ontario, Ephraim Shore.....and a new friend from Boston, Mass., Rabbi Bill Hamilton. An interesting and very pertinent podcast.Tomorrow we will be back with more hardcore straight up war-talk.We are going flat out. If you have not done so already please consider supporting us with a paid subscription - either on our website or at Buy me a Coffee. It makes a huge difference….allowing us to continue our work and, even more so, knowing that you appreciate what we do. State of Tel Aviv is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Our guests today:Rabbi Ephraim Shore/Tour Guide Extraordinaire:Insta: @ephraimshore Rabbi William G. Hamilton has led Kehillath Israel since 1995. He strives to activate Torah in the service of meaningful living – nourishing growth, solacing grief, and deepening joy.Empowering learners is at the heart of his leadership approach. Lay-leaders, Jews-by-choice, and rabbinic interns, all take responsibility for creating community and celebrating Judaism. A commitment to inclusion is also central to Rabbi Hamilton. His deep involvement with the Ruderman Foundation's work for disability inclusion alongside his Board leadership with New England Yachad, complements a principled commitment to gender, ideological, and diversified practice inclusion at KI.Rabbi Hamilton's vision for partnership practice now shapes a new century at Kehillath Israel. Establishing a campus that hosts five prayer-communities and several other agencies under his leadership has made KI the subject of a Harvard Business School Case-Study. His impact and influence are strengthened by exceptionally strong engagement with Israel. As a founder of The David Project (Campus advocacy) and the New England Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces, Rabbi Hamilton regularly brings groups on specialized tours of Israel. He sees resourcing Israel as essential to deepening Jewish commitments and furnishing richer inner-lives.His leadership in civic settings also distinguishes his voice throughout our region. For twenty years he has served as Chaplain of the Massachusetts State Police, on the Board of ADL, and on Harvard University's Board of Ministry.He enjoys playing sports and rooting for local teams. His wife, Debbie Block, an accomplished historian and educator, gathered, produced and edited Kehillath Israel: The First 100 Years. This is a public episode.

Imagine your son calls you, breathless and terrified, claiming he's being hunted by "people in high places." You tell him to come home, but he never arrives. When the police find his car, his shoes, and his backpack scattered across the woods of Dartmouth, they discover something even more bizarre: Charlie Allen Jr. no longer exists. Just days before vanishing, he had legally changed his name to Neo Babson Maximus.It is now 2026, and the trail has been cold for nearly two decades—but Private Investigator John Leccese is still hunting for the truth. In this gripping interview, the former detective takes us inside the investigation that defined his career and continues to haunt him.In this episode, we tackle the questions that won't go away:The Paranoid Protocol: We deconstruct the final, frantic voicemails. Was Charlie's fear of "important people" a symptom of his bipolar disorder, or did he stumble upon something he wasn't supposed to see at UMass Dartmouth?The "Polite" Intruder: John Leccese walks us through the strangest lead in the file—the man matching Charlie's description who broke into a local home, apologized to the homeowner by name, and then dissolved back into the forest.Sifting the Shadows: From organized ground searches to analyzing 19 years of "sightings," Leccese reveals the hardest part of tracking a man who didn't want to be found.The 2026 Breakthrough? We discuss how modern technology and renewed interest in cold cases are putting pressure on the original evidence. Is there a digital footprint for "Neo" that we've missed?Guest Spotlight:John Leccese, owner of Orion Investigations, is a retired law enforcement officer who has become the Allen family's strongest ally. He brings a tactical, "no-stone-unturned" perspective to a case that sits at the intersection of mental health and mystery.Be the Key to the Case:Charlie's family deserves peace.

The Brian Walshe murder trial isn't just about the evidence — it's about the dynamics surrounding the case that could influence how this jury sees everything. And there are some significant wildcards in play that most people aren't talking about. First, there's the Michael Proctor connection. Proctor, the disgraced Massachusetts State Police trooper who was fired for misconduct during the Karen Read investigation, also worked the Walshe case. Several investigators tied to the Proctor scandal may be called as witnesses. The defense has every reason to lean into this — if they can paint the investigation as tainted or sloppy, it creates doubt. And after what happened in the Karen Read trial, Massachusetts juries may be more skeptical of state police testimony than they've ever been. Then there's what happened to Walshe himself. In September 2025, he was stabbed in jail at the Norfolk County Correctional Center. His attorneys pushed for a trial delay, arguing he couldn't adequately assist in his own defense after the attack. The judge ordered a 40-day mental health evaluation at Bridgewater State Hospital. Walshe was cleared to stand trial just two weeks before opening statements. The jury won't hear about any of that — but it's context that matters for understanding where this defendant's head might be. And then there's the fundamental problem the jury has to wrestle with: Brian Walshe has already admitted he disposed of his wife's body. He pleaded guilty to it. Now they have to decide if they can separate that admission from the murder charge. Legally, they're supposed to. Psychologically? That's a different question. In this episode, Eric Faddis breaks down the trial dynamics that could shape the outcome. We discuss how the Proctor scandal might be weaponized by the defense, what "consciousness of guilt" jury instructions actually mean, and what typically makes or breaks no-body murder cases. Eric also tells us what he's watching for as this trial moves into its second week. #BrianWalshe #BrianWalsheTrial #MichaelProctor #KarenReadCase #MassachusettsStatePolice #NoBodyMurder #JuryInstructions #ConsciousnessOfGuilt #MentalCompetency #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #TrialAnalysis #WhatToWatch #LegalAnalysis #NorfolkCounty #Dedham #CriminalJustice #TrueCrimeCommunity #CourtAnalysis #TrialDynamics Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Day 3 of the Brian Walshe murder trial revealed the most disturbing evidence yet. A Massachusetts State Police forensic scientist walked the jury through ten bags of garbage pulled from a dumpster near Brian Walshe's mother's apartment—and what investigators found inside tells a story the defense cannot explain away. A hacksaw with red-brown stains on the blade. Slippers soaked in what appeared to be blood with human hair still attached. Pieces of a rug covered in blood and human tissue. A Tyvek suit. Safety goggles. A hatchet. Hydrogen peroxide. Cleaning supplies. This wasn't panic. This was a kit. Prosecutors also showed jurors a photograph of Ana Walshe alive and smiling, lying on a green patterned rug in her living room, playing with one of her sons. Then they showed the jury pieces of that same rug—cut up, stained, and recovered from the trash. The prosecution called a life insurance agent who testified Ana held policies worth $1.25 million with Brian as the sole beneficiary. She received the highest possible health rating from New York Life. This was not a woman about to suddenly die in her sleep. Records custodians from Uber, Lyft, JetBlue, and U.S. Customs confirmed Ana Walshe didn't take a single rideshare, board a single flight, or leave the country after December 30, 2022. Brian told police she left for the airport on New Year's morning. That was a lie—one even his own defense now admits. The family Volvo tested positive for blood in five locations. Sixteen plastic gloves were found in the center console. Two child car seats sat in the back. Tomorrow, prosecutors are expected to call William Fastow—the man Ana was having an affair with, and the man Brian Walshe searched by name on Christmas Day 2022. This is day three. And the evidence is only getting worse. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #TrueCrimeNews #WalsheEvidence Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/M-TvaCGBow4  In this Case Brief, we dive into the latest developments surrounding the Karen Read fallout. Canton PD announced on November 3rd that a police department member was placed on paid administrative leave on October 24th due to misconduct allegations discovered during an investigation into a former member of a different law enforcement agency (later revealed to be Sergeant Goode). Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox is facing calls to be placed on the "Brady list" by Karen Read's defense attorney, Alan Jackson, who alleges Cox lied in a statement to the media regarding his involvement in the Karen Read case. An email from the FBI to Commissioner Cox, following up on a phone call and discussing discovery turned over to the prosecution, contradicts Cox's claims of no involvement. Boston 25 Investigates uncovered a loophole in the Massachusetts State Police's GPS tracking system. Hundreds of cruisers are equipped with a "kill switch" that allows tracking to be disabled. This feature was highlighted in the investigation of former state police detective Michael Proctor, who was fired for conduct revealed in the Karen Read murder trial. Proctor's tracker was off during an alleged overtime shift where he and Canton police detective Kevin Albert were drinking. A new policy has been implemented requiring permission and written approval for disabling the system in "limited extraordinary circumstances." This breaks down the ongoing investigations, the implications for law enforcement accountability, and the continued unraveling of details in the Karen Read case. Don't miss this crucial update!

2012 - Cambridge, Massachusetts. On a June evening in 2012, 16-year-old Charlene Holmes, who went by Chay, was exactly where she was supposed to be—walking home with friends in her own neighborhood in Cambridge—when a car crept down Willow Street. Moments later, shots rang out. She wasn't the intended target. She was a bright, hopeful teenager caught in someone else's crossfire. More than a decade later, police and Chay's family still search for answers — and for the mysterious dark car seen circling the block that night. If you have any information on the murder of Charlene Holmes, please contact the Massachusetts State Police at (781) 897-6600, or Cambridge Police Investigations Section at (617) 349-3370.

Four months have passed since a jury acquitted Karen Read for the murder of Boston police officer John O'Keefe. Some involved in the three-year saga have seen their reputations permanently tarnished. Others are riding the case's notoriety to newfound fame and monetary rewards. The obvious question remains: if Karen Read didn't kill John O'Keefe, who did? Scrutiny has swung from the accused to the accusers: the Canton Police Department, Massachusetts State Police and Norfolk County District Attorney's Office. As for Karen, there's no indication she plans to leave the spotlight. A movie is in the works. So is a tell-all book. Then again, so is a civil trial in which she stands to lose tens of thousands in future proceeds. For John's loved ones and many others, the drama is far from over—it's just entered a new, equally contentious chapter.

Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/dDffIE_Rq9k On September 22, 2025, a Hearing for the Wrongful Death Civil Case brought by The estate of John O'Keefe, Paul O'Keefe (individually and as representative of the estate), John O'Keefe II (father), Margaret O'Keefe (mother), and Margaret O'Keefe (as grandparent and guardian of Kaye) are suing Karen Reed, CF McCarthy's, and Waterfall. During the hearing, Karen Read attorneys announced that she is suing Brian Albert, Nicole Albert, Matthew McCabe, Jennifer McCabe, and Brian Higgins. Her attorneys also intend to bring claims against the Massachusetts State Police, Lieutenant Brian Tully, Sergeant Yuri Bukhenik, Michael Proctor, and the town of Canton Police Department for alleged civil rights violations, conspiracy, and negligent training/supervision. The court anticipates discovery closing in December 2026, with a trial realistically expected in 2027, possibly 2028, especially if additional parties are added. The court strongly urged parties to explore resolutions outside of trial, emphasizing the arduous and expensive nature of civil litigation. The next in-person hearing is scheduled for November 21, 2025.

Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://honeylove.com/LAWNERD ! #honeylovepod #ad Get 15% off OneSkin with the code LAWNERD at https://www.oneskin.co/ #oneskinpod #ad This episode of TES focuses on the administrative hearing of former Massachusetts State Trooper Michael Proctor, who is appealing his termination. The episode briefly mentions the conclusion of the Donna Adelson trial on September 4th before delving into Proctor's case. Proctor, the lead investigator in the Karen Reed case, was fired after the first trial due to misconduct. His administrative hearing aims to determine if his termination was justified. The Massachusetts State Police must prove his misconduct warranted termination, after which Proctor can argue for a lesser disciplinary action. The State Police attorney used strong terms like "distasteful," "unprofessional," and "disgusting" to describe Proctor's actions. The charges include: sending derogatory texts about Karen Reed, sharing confidential investigative information with non-law enforcement individuals, engaging in unprofessional conduct that harmed the State Police's reputation, and drinking alcohol on duty while operating a department vehicle. The last charge, though unrelated to the Karen Reed case, was uncovered through his text messages. The State Police presented 36 exhibits, including Proctor's own trial testimony where he admitted to his actions.Proctor's attorney is delaying his full defense until October, citing a lack of discovery from the State Police. He argues that prior to February 2024 (when his texts were discovered), Proctor was an "exemplary" 12-year veteran with no disciplinary record. The defense intends to focus on the texts as "personal things" that shouldn't lead to job loss, despite the irony of the State Police withholding discovery.

Using “mom” and “hate group” in the same sentence may sound unusual to you – but that is exactly what the Massachusetts State Police have done. Massachusetts police training materials classified Mom’s for Liberty as a “hate group” and placed them in their training manual right next to Antifa, a group who is known for actually inciting violence. Host Casey Harper is joined by Tina Descovich, co-founder of Mom’s for Liberty as she reacts to the label and discusses what Moms for Liberty is actually up to.

Almost exactly a year before John O'Keefe is found in the snow outside of Boston detective Brian Albert's home,  Sandra Birchmore is found dead in her apartment in the middle of a blizzard. In her phone are thousands of messages between her and a police detective that indicate he is the father of her unborn child. But of course, it's never that simple. For one, he's married and his wife is about to give birth to their third child.And two, he legally, shouldn't be in a relationship with Sandra. Nobody was supposed to find out that he had been grooming and assaulting her since she was 15 years old, a grade school cadet apart of his police explorer's program. Now that she's dead - everything's about to come out into the open right? Not exactly.  When Canton PD and Massachusetts State Police investigate Sandra's suspicious death, they rule her manner of death as a self exit. It would take the FBI 4 years to get involved and make an arrest.  From first glance, it appeared Sandra Birchmore's connection to Karen Read ended with the fact that both crimes took place in the same town. But  when Karen Read's defense team requests unredacted files from Sandra Birchmore's investigation…netizens begin digging.  Many of the same exact officers that are going after Karen Read are the same ones saying Sandra Birchmore did this to herself. What are they all hiding?    Full show notes at rottenmangopodcast.com
