Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/r2vEF0vxG2wDay 10 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 6, 2025. We finished up Cross Examination of Lt. Paul Gallagher, along with Re-Directs and Re-Cross. When he was clearing the area with the leaf blower, he never found a hat, a shoe, and red pieces of plastic tail lights. He was also questioned why he never got a search warrant to the premises of 34 Fairview Rd.Meteorologist, Robert Gilman, testified next and talked about the ground being frozen, the amount of snow on the ground, and visibility conditions at the time of the incident. Defense Attorney Robert Alessi used this testimony to highlight the relatively little amount of snow and good visibility when John arrived at 34 Fairview Rd. The Meteorologist also brought up the concept of windchill to argue about the potential effect on O'Keefe's body and to question whether he could have died from the cold outside.Video clips of Karen Read in interviews with media saying she could have clipped John in the leg were played tot he jury.Trooper Nick Guarino was recalled to the stand for the final time to bring in timeline evidence of evidence of Karen Read's communication with John O'Keefe's cell phone around the time they arrived to 34 Fairview Rd. Missed calls, voice messages, and texts messages varied from angry and accusatory around midnight to panicked at towards the morning up until she found John O'Keefe's body. A key piece of evidence is that Karen Read's cell phone automatically connected to John O'Keefe's home Wi-Fi Router at 12:36am.Lt. Charles Rae testified to going to 1 Meadows where John O'Keefe lived to do a wellness check on his niece and nephew. No one answered the door because by the time they arrived their, John's friends and family had already taken care of the kids. He was able to bring in footage from his dash cam showing Karen Read's SUV was at 1 Meadows and had a cracked tail light and some snow inside it.Kevin O'Hara from SERT was brought in to testify about evidence recovery around 5pm on January 29th. Their focus was initially on the area near the road to avoid evidence being plowed away. Five to six pieces of tail light and a shoe were found near the curb line. O'Hara testified that a man in a hoodie from 34 Faireview came outside the house asked "Are you here for what happened earlier?" And O'Hara replied, "Yes." And then the person just went back inside.Today's focus is on foundational testimony and evidence gathering, setting the stage for future discussions from accident reconstructionist. Though it was a less dramatic exchange between attorneys and witnesses than some previous days, how the jury will interpret the information, video clips and timeline presentation will impact the verdict.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

Leaf Blowers & Blood - Paul Gallagher's Strong Karen Read Trial Testimony Retired Canton Police Lt. Paul Gallagher stepped up to the stand on May 5, 2025, bringing his years of experience to bolster the prosecution's case against Karen Read. His testimony focused on his role at the crime scene where John O'Keefe was found dead, specifically how he used a leaf blower to clear snow and preserve evidence like blood and a broken cocktail glass. This was a key moment, as the prosecution argues these items—found_near O'Keefe's body—tie directly to Read's SUV and her alleged drunken hit-and-run. Gallagher's matter-of-fact delivery gave the jury a clear picture of a meticulous, if unconventional, effort to secure the scene, reinforcing the idea that the evidence points to Read's guilt. Gallagher's testimony was a headache for the defense because it grounded the prosecution's physical evidence in a professional's actions. He likely explained how the snow complicated things, but his use of a leaf blower was a calculated move to uncover critical clues without contaminating them.    Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Karen Read Trial Day 10 Recap - 52 Calls, 1 Dead Cop, More Karen Admissions In today's explosive courtroom testimony, jurors in the Karen Read murder trial were confronted with the one voice that might matter more than any other: Karen Read's. On May 6, 2025, prosecutors played a series of voicemails and video clips recorded in the hours surrounding the death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe—and for the first time, the jury heard Karen Read describe, in her own words, the night everything fell apart. This video dissects the 8 angry voicemails and 52 missed calls Karen Read made between midnight and 6 a.m.—including the final voicemail recorded live as O'Keefe's body was discovered. You'll hear how prosecutors used her tone, language, and admissions to build a timeline of escalating rage and self-doubt. We'll also examine the HBO interview clips played in court, where Read speculates she might have hit O'Keefe and recalls him taking her vodka soda—details that directly connect to physical evidence found at the scene. But the evidence didn't stop with her voice. We break down key testimony from Lt. Paul Gallagher and Lt. Kevin O'Hara, showing how early searches turned up nothing, only for taillight shards and O'Keefe's shoe to be found 12 hours later under feet of snow. Add in dashcam footage showing Read's Lexus with a broken taillight, and it becomes clear why this case hinges as much on weather, timing, and investigative gaps as it does on motive. Finally, we cover Judge Beverly Cannone's ruling to exclude the Sandra Birchmore case, denying the defense its broader narrative of institutional corruption—at least for now. If you want a complete breakdown of the day prosecutors turned Karen Read's own words against her, this is the video to watch. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrime #KarenReadTrial #BostonPolice #Voicemails #CrimeScene #LegalAnalysis #ForensicEvidence #MurderTrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/CQm0FID9AXYDay 9 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 5, 2025. We continue with Cross Examination and finishing up the testimony of Hannah Knowles from the Massachusetts State Police Crime Laboratory who explains the blood alcohol conversions and retrograde extrapolation, and how timing is critical in this case. Testimonies from Ryan Nagle, Heather Maxom, and Sarah Levinson provide insights into the events at 34 Fairview, including arrival times and observations of Karen Read's SUV. Sarah Levenson's surprisingly states never seeing the dog, Chloe, at the Albert's residence despite being friends with Brian Albert Jr. for many years.Katie McLaughlin, the female EMT who Jen McCabe stated Karen read said, "I hit him" three time in front of took the said. She also said that she heard Karen read say, "I hit him," but it was four times. Cross-examination by Alan Jackson focused on the timing of these statements and used dashcam video to break down these interactions and how her testimony does match up with what is happening on the video. Unfortunately, Jackson spent a majority of the time trying to get a "gotcha" moment by trying to prove that Katie McLaughlin and Caitlin Albert are close friends but he was unable to recreate that moment from the first trial due Special Prosecutor allowing Katie to explain her acquaintance relationship with Caitlin ahead of the Cross Examination. Jackson did manage to impeach Katie based on her words of first trial where she said that she knew of a girl by the name of Caitlin Albert that went to her school but that victory was short lived because he tried to being in picture evidence that kept being objected and sustained by Judge Cannone. Last witness of the day, Lt. Paul Gallagher, worked for the Canton Police Department at the time of the John O'Keefe's death and was the site supervisor. His testimony reveals issues with evidence handling and a lack of reports. It was his decision to use a leaf blower on the snow to uncover evidence, put blood found in the snow in Red Solo Cup and then transport them in Stop & Shop bags and found and handled the shattered drinking cocktail glass. Lt. Gallagher never wrote a report about his methods or even logged evidence with the blood he transferred. Questions about the chain of custody and why crucial information regarding Karen Read's statements was not relayed to the site supervisor. We also learn that Lieutenant Gallagher was not interviewed until just before the previous trial on April 3, 2024 by the Prosecution. We will resume with Cross Examination on Day 10. Stay tuned as we continue to follow the Karen Read Retrial and provide detailed breakdowns of each day's proceedings.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

On Day 9 of Karen Read's retrial, the prosecution presented testimony from several key witnesses to reinforce their narrative that Read struck her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O'Keefe, with her SUV and left him to die in the snow. Canton firefighter-paramedic Katie McLaughlin testified that upon arriving at the scene, she heard Read repeatedly say, “I hit him,” while appearing hysterical. McLaughlin also noted that Jennifer McCabe, a friend of Read and a key prosecution witness, attempted to calm Read down during this time. The defense questioned McLaughlin about her relationship with Caitlin Albert, whose father owned the home where O'Keefe's body was found, suggesting potential bias due to their past acquaintance.Retired Canton Police Lt. Paul Gallagher also took the stand, detailing his actions at the crime scene. He described using a leaf blower to clear snow and red plastic cups to collect what he believed was blood evidence, decisions he made due to the urgency of preserving potential evidence. The defense scrutinized Gallagher's methods, highlighting the lack of formal documentation and questioning the adequacy of his evidence collection techniques. Additionally, witnesses Ryan Nagel and Heather Maxon testified about their observations on the night of O'Keefe's death, stating they did not see anyone outside the home when they arrived. Toxicologist Hannah Knowles provided estimates of Read's blood alcohol content, suggesting it was significantly above the legal limit at the time of the incident, though the defense challenged the reliability of these retroactive calculations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Canton, Massachusetts cop witness in Karen Read trial explains red Solo cup | Fox News

Từ ngày 14 đến ngày 16 tháng 10 năm 2024, đức hồng y Matteo Zuppi đã đến Matxcơva trong vai trò đặc phái viên của Đức giáo hoàng Phanxicô để tiếp tục sứ mệnh « ngoại giao nhân đạo » thúc đẩy con đường hòa bình cho cuộc chiến ở Ukraina. Phát ngôn viên phòng báo chí Toà Thánh đã xác nhận nhưng không cho biết chi tiết về chuyến đi Nga của đức hồng y Zuppi sáng ngày 14/10. Sau khi kết thúc chuyến đi, cũng không có nhiều thông báo chi tiết được công bố. Và vào cuối tuần 19/10, một cuộc trao đổi tù binh chiến tranh của đôi bên đã diễn ra qua trung gian của Các Tiểu Vương Quốc Ả Rập Thống Nhất.Chuyến đi Nga xảy ra ngay sau cuộc gặp ngắn giữa tổng thống Ukraina Volodymyr Zelensky và đức giáo hoàng Phanxicô tại Vatican hôm 11/10/2024. Vào lúc chiến sự lan rộng, xung đột diễn ra ác liệt hơn, về mặt ngoại giao, hai bên vẫn chưa thể ngồi vào bàn đàm phán và Vatican là một trong số ít kênh còn mở nhằm tìm kiếm giải pháp hòa bình.Cách nay 15 tháng, đặc phái viên của giáo hoàng đã tới Matxcơva. Liệu đây có sẽ là chu kỳ được lặp lại ? Ngài có tiếp tục đi Kiev, Bắc Kinh và Washington hay không ?Tại sao lại tới Matxcơva ? Thông cáo của Văn phòng báo chí Toà Thánh giải thích rằng chuyến đi diễn ra « trong khuôn khổ nhiệm vụ màđức giáo hoàng Phanxicô giao phó cho [Zuppi] vào năm 2023, đó là gặp gỡ các nhà chức trách và đánh giá các nỗ lực tiếp theo nhằm tạo điều kiện cho việc đoàn tụ gia đình của trẻ em Ukraina và trao đổi tù nhân, nhằm đạt được hòa bình mà nhiều người mong đợi ».Tuyên bố có ba điểm quan trọng : Thứ nhất, đức hồng y Matteo Zuppi đến Matxcơva với tư cách là đặc phái viên hòa bình của Vatican, một vai trò mà ngài đã đảm nhiệm từ tháng 5/2023.Thứ hai, chuyến đi có hai mục tiêu. Đầu tiên hết là giúp đỡ gần 20.000 trẻ em Ukraina bị bắt đến Nga được trở về với gia đình. Mục tiêu thứ hai này cũng thúc đẩy trao đổi tù binh chiến tranh Nga và Ukraina. « Phái bộ Zuppi » đã đạt được một số thành công trên cả hai mặt trận, mặc dù khó có thể định lượng được do màn sương mù của cuộc chiến.Thứ ba, Tòa Thánh hy vọng rằng các thỏa thuận nhân đạo sẽ là bước mở đầu cho các cuộc đàm phán hòa bình.Sau hơn một năm, nhiều sự kiện này đã diễn ra qua các chuyến đi và gặp gỡ của các nhân vật có trách nhiệm và chính đức giáo hoàng cho thấy Tòa Thánh đã làm việc không ngừng, và nhất là trong những tháng gần đây để thúc đẩy sứ mệnh của mình.Việc đức hồng y Zuppi trở lại Nga ngụ ý rằng các cuộc thảo luận về tù binh chiến tranh và trẻ em bị bắt cóc đã tiến triển đến mức cần phải có các cuộc đàm phán trực tiếp để đạt được nhiều tiến bộ hơn nữa. Nhưng đó đơn giản chỉ là một suy luận.Nhưng lịch trình của chuyến đi đã được thông báo cụ thể ?Chuyến đi của đức hồng y Zuppi bắt đầu bằng cuộc gặp ngày 14/10/2024 với ngoại trưởng Nga Serguei Lavrov. Bản thân điều này đã đánh dấu sự khác biệt đáng kể so với chuyến thăm đầu tiên của ngài. Trong chuyến đi trước vào tháng 6/2023, quan chức ngoại giao cấp cao nhất mà ngài gặp là Yuri Ushakov, trợ lý của tổng thống Nga về chính sách đối ngoại.Tòa Thánh Vatican có thể sẽ vui mừng khi Zuppi bảo đảm được một cuộc gặp ngay lập tức với ngoại trưởng Lavrov, có thể nói là nhân vật của điện Kremlin dễ nhận biết nhất sau tổng thống Vladimir Putin. Điều này cho thấy các nỗ lực nhân đạo của Tòa Thánh đang được chính phủ Nga coi trọng.Tuy nhiên, Vatican có thể thất vọng vì, không giống như tháng 6/2023, đặc sứ của giáo hoàng lần này không thể gặp nhà lãnh đạo Giáo hội Chính thống giáo Nga là đức thượng phụ Kirill. Một linh mục thuộc Uỷ Ban Quan hệ Đối ngoại của Tòa thượng phụ Matxcơva đã nói với hãng thông tấn nhà nước Nga TASS rằng « lịch trình làm việc bận rộn của Đức thượng phụ Kirill không cho phép một cuộc gặp mới với hồng y Zuppi ».Nhưng đó không phải dấu hiệu quá thất vọng vì còn có những cuộc họp mang tính xây dựng tích cực ở cấp thấp hơn ?Bên cạnh cuộc gặp với Serguei Lavrov, ngoại trưởng Nga và Yuri Ushakov, cố vấn cho tổng thống Liên bang Nga về các vấn đề chính sách đối ngoại, còn có Marija Lvova-Belova, ủy viên tổng thống về Quyền Trẻ em và Tatiana Moskalkova, ủy viên tổng thống về Nhân quyền.Tuy không có cuộc họp nào với Đức thượng phụ Kyrill, nhưng quan trọng không kém là cuộc gặp gỡ với Giáo hội Chính thống Nga mà đại diện là đức tổng giám mục Antonij, chủ tịch Uỷ ban Quan hệ Đối ngoại của Tòa thượng phụ Matxcơva, có thể coi như là Ngoại trưởng, người mà Zuppi đã « thảo luận về nhiều vấn đề khác nhau, đặc biệt là những vấn đề có tính chất nhân đạo », theo ghi chú của Tòa Thánh.Trong cuộc họp này, có sự hiện diện của sứ thần Tòa Thánh tại Nga, đức tổng giám mục Giovanni D'Aniello, và đức ông Paul Butnaru, thuộc Cơ quan liên lạc với các quốc gia của Phủ Quốc vụ khanh. Đức hồng y Zuppi và đức tổng giá mục Antonij đã từng gặp nhau trong chuyến thăm trước vào năm 2023. Vatican vẫn tin rằng các Giáo hội có thể đóng vai trò quan trọng trong tiến trình hòa bình.Cũng vào ngày 15/10, Zuppi đã nói chuyện với ủy viên phụ trách quyền trẻ em của Nga Maria Lvova-Belova, như ngài đã làm trong chuyến thăm năm 2023. Xin nhắc lại, cuộc gặp đầu tiên này giữa hai bên đã gây tranh cãi sâu sắc ở Ukraina, vì Tòa án Hình sự Quốc tế tại La Haye đã ban hành lệnh bắt giữ Lvova-Belova vào tháng 3/2023, khi buộc tội bà phải « chịu trách nhiệm về tội ác chiến tranh là cưỡng bức bất hợp pháp » trẻ em Ukraina sang Nga.Tuy nhiên, cuộc gặp năm 2023 với Lvova-Belova được cho là đã giúp Vatican thiết lập một cơ chế để đưa trẻ em trở về Ukraina. Theo nhật báo công giáo Ý Avvenire, hoạt động tiếp cận của Zuppi đã dẫn đến một hội nghị thượng đỉnh « trực tuyến » giữa Lvova-Belova và người đồng cấp Ukraina, mà tờ báo của các giám mục Ý mô tả là « một trong những trường hợp rất hiếm hoi có sự tiếp xúc trực tiếp giữa các bên ».Nhưng thông tin chi tiết về hội nghị thượng đỉnh này được giữ kín. Mặc dù Lvova-Belova đã nói vào tháng 4/2024 rằng « lần đầu tiên theo hình thức trực tiếp, chúng tôi đã có các cuộc đàm phán với phía Ukraina », nhưng thanh tra viên Ukraina Dmytro Lubinets dường như đã bày tỏ sự nghi ngờ về tuyên bố này.Cuộc gặp thứ hai của Zuppi với Lvova-Belova có thể nhằm mục đích củng cố cơ chế hồi hương những trẻ em bị trục xuất. Sau cuộc họp, Lvova-Belova cho biết : « Chúng tôi đã đồng ý tiếp tục hợp tác vì lợi ích của các gia đình và trẻ em ». Còn theo Vatican News, « chúng tôi đã thảo luận về kết quả và sự tương tác hơn nữa vì lợi ích của các gia đình và trẻ em, bao gồm cả việc đoàn tụ các gia đình từ Nga và Ukraina. Chúng tôi đang thực hiện việc này với sự tham gia của bộ Ngoại Giao Nga. Chúng tôi quyết định tiếp tục làm việc cùng nhau ».Mặc dù tuyên bố không tiết lộ nhiều, nhưng nó cho thấy cuộc họp diễn ra khá tốt.Tiếp theo là gì ? Đây có phải điểm dừng chân đầu tiên trong chuyến công du hoà bình vòng quanh thế giới như đã từng thực hiện hồi năm 2023 ?  Việc đức hồng Y Zuppi đến Matxcơva lần này, trước tiên, cho thấy ông không chỉ đơn giản là quay lại con đường cũ và Vatican coi Nga là nơi phù hợp để tập trung các nỗ lực ngoại giao tại thời điểm này.Nhưng điều này vẫn chưa chắc chắn vì Vatican chia sẻ rất ít thông tin trước, về lịch trình công tác của phái viên hòa bình. Vatican có xu hướng chỉ đưa ra thông báo sau khi Zuppi đến thủ đô nước ngoài, vì vậy, ngay cả khi vị hồng y này có sẽ đến Ukraina tiếp theo hay không.Vatican cũng có thể không xem xét đến một chuyến đi khác tới Trung Quốc như là ưu tiên. Bởi vì việc này có thể thực hiện bằng hình thức họp trực tuyến như đã từng có : Cuộc điện đàm của đức hồng y Zuppi với đặc sứ Trung Quốc Lý Huy phụ trách các vấn đề Á-Âu hồi tháng 8/2023.Điều chắc chắn là Ukraina đã thấy Vatican cử đại diện là ngoại trưởng Tòa Thánh, đức tổng giám mục Paul Gallargher đến tham dự hội nghị cấp bộ trưởng vào ngày 30-31/10/2024 tại Canada thảo luận về việc trao trả tù binh chiến tranh Ukraina, thường dân và trẻ em bị trục xuất.Hội nghị Montréal kết thúc cho kết quả ra sao ?Hội nghị bộ trưởng diễn ra ở Montreal do Canada – Na Uy và Ukraina đồng chủ tịch để bàn về các vấn đề nhân đạo với hơn 70 nước và các tổ chức quốc tế. Hội nghị nhằm mục đích thiết lập lộ trình với các giải pháp thực tế để giải quyết mọi giai đoạn hồi hương tù binh chiến tranh và người bị trục xuất, bao gồm quân nhân, thường dân và trẻ em, cũng như tăng cường gây sức ép buộc Liên bang Nga phải tuân thủ luật pháp quốc tế và Công ước Genève.Người đứng đầu văn phòng tổng thống Ukraina, Andrij Yermak đã có cuộc họp riêng với các đại diện của Hoa Kỳ, Canada, Pháp, Vatican và Thuỵ Sỹ. Ông Andrij Yermak và ngoại trưởng Tòa Thánh, đức tổng giám mục Paul Gallagher đã thảo luận về việc tăng cường hợp tác và đóng góp của Vatican vào việc thực hiện Công thức hòa bình, đặc biệt là việc thực hiện sứ mệnh của hồng y Matteo Zuppi nhằm hồi hương những trẻ em bị bắt cóc và tù nhân Ukraina.Đồng thời, đại sứ Ukraina bên cạnh Toà Thánh, Andrii Yarash đã gửi năm danh sách cho bộ trưởng ngoại giao Vatican: « một của những nhà báo; một của các thường dân đang trong tình trạng sức khỏe nguy kịch; một của những người lính bị thương; một của những giáo sĩ bị bắt; và tất nhiên là danh sách các trẻ em bị bắt cóc sang Nga. »Trong sứ mạng này, đại sứ cho biết, Ukraina đã có hai đối tác quan trọng là Qatar và Canada, nhưng Vatican có một vị trí đặc biệt. Ông nhắc đến đức giáo hoàng, đức hồng y Pietro Parolin, hệ thống các tòa khâm sứ và các khâm sứ Tòa Thánh, và nhất là vai trò đặc biệt của đức hồng y Matteo Zuppi.Nhưng trong những tháng tới, chúng ta nên chú ý đến các cuộc trao đổi tù binh chiến tranh và thường dân cũng như trẻ em bị bắt cóc. Mặc dù vai trò của Vatican trong những sự kiện như vậy hiếm khi được nhấn mạnh, nhưng Tòa Thánh không hề có dấu hiệu chậm lại trong nỗ lực đạt được bước đột phá nhân đạo khó nắm bắt trong diễn tiến của cuộc chiến này.RFI Tiếng Việt xin cảm ơn Linh mục Phạm Hoàng Dũng từ Liège, Bỉ.

The courtroom was enveloped in sorrow as recordings of the frantic 911 calls made during the disappearance and discovery of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe were played during Monday's session of Karen Read's murder trial. Family members were seen in tears as the reality of the tragic event was audibly revisited. Canton Police Sgt. Sean Goode took the stand, detailing the events following the early morning calls on January 29, 2022, that led to the grim discovery of O'Keefe's body on Fairview Road. The atmosphere grew tense as Prosecutor Adam Lally replayed the emergency calls, with one call revealing the moment Read and her companions found O'Keefe unresponsive. Subsequent events unfolded tragically, as Karen Read herself became suicidal, according to Sgt. Goode's testimony regarding police intervention due to her threats of self-harm. Adding to the trial's complexity, Canton Police Lt. Paul Gallagher described the scene where O'Keefe was found as "unique" due to the snowy conditions that preserved key evidence like footprints and a broken cocktail glass. However, Gallagher's methods, particularly the use of a leaf blower to clear the scene and the collection of blood evidence in red Solo cups, were heavily scrutinized by defense attorney Alan Jackson. Jackson questioned the sterility and integrity of the evidence collection process, suggesting potential cross-contamination.  PLAY AUDIO CUT HERE:  Lt. Paul Gallagher-LEAF BLOWER Further controversy emerged over the credibility of firefighter-paramedic Katie McLaughlin, who testified about Read's alleged admission at the scene. Defense attorney David Yannetti accused McLaughlin of perjury, presenting new photographs that purportedly show a closer relationship between McLaughlin and Caitlin Albert—daughter of the homeowners where O'Keefe was found—than previously admitted. This accusation aims to challenge the forthcoming testimony of Caitlin Albert, setting the stage for more intense legal scrutiny. The day concluded with procedural debates out of the jury's presence, focusing on the admissibility of evidence about McLaughlin's relationship and potential biases. Judge Beverly Cannone stated that a decision on this matter would be made in the coming days, which could significantly impact the testimonies ahead. As the trial progresses, the community remains gripped by the unfolding narrative, awaiting further revelations that promise to shed light on the circumstances surrounding the tragic death of Officer John O'Keefe and the alleged involvement of Karen Read.

In this episode, Visualising Peace students Otilia and Harris interview Johanna McMullan and Paul Gallagher who are trained educators at the Widows Against Violence Empowerment (WAVE) Centre. WAVE is the largest cross-community victim group for people who have been affected by conflict in Northern Ireland from 1968-1998. While The Troubles officially ended over 25 years ago, past violence, current tensions and ongoing traumas continue to impact people today.  WAVE promotes peace, reconciliation, and trauma recovery through 5 different centres and 15 satellite projects across Northern Ireland.  Johanna is a senior Nursing and Midwifery lecturer at Queens University in Belfast. For over a decade, Johanna has been working with the Wave Trauma Centre in Belfast where she delivers citizen education programs and other trauma-informed training. Paul came to WAVE in 2010 for support after he was severely injured in 1994, having being shot 6 times. Today, through trauma recovery at WAVE, Paul has obtained his master's degree in conflict reconciliation and social justice and his PhD thesis in Sociology. Throughout the conversation, Paul and Johanna share their insights into how education through loving and caring practices enable victims to recover from trauma and support the fragile, yet lasting peace in Northern Ireland. In the episode, Johanna first delves into the different aspects of love and care that are important to consider when designing trauma-informed education for citizens and health-care professionals. Paul then shares his personal story of how a sense of communal care and inner peace were crucial for his own healing, discussing also how trauma affects the human mind and body over time. Both Johanna and Paul emphasise that the path towards sustaining peace – in Northern Ireland and elsewhere – depends on the collective reflection and co-operation of a caring community. To build such a community in practice, WAVE brings citizen education to the forefront of their work; their trainers bring different generations together in remembering the conflict and also in promoting trauma recovery through multiple generations. We hope you find our conversation interesting.For a version of our podcast with close captions, please use this link.
