Plastic Found on Deep In O'Keefe's Clothing Matches Karen Read's Taillight - Forensic Bombshell In this critical segment of the Karen Read trial, Massachusetts State Police Crime Lab forensic scientist Christina Hanley delivered testimony that bolsters the prosecution's narrative: that John O'Keefe was struck and left to die—while key trace evidence ties back to Read's SUV. Hanley's testimony focused on three main forensic categories: glass fragments, plastic from the taillight, and debris found in John O'Keefe's clothing. Her analysis confirmed that six out of nine pieces of broken glass recovered from the road (Item 7-12) physically matched a drinking glass (Item 3-2) found shattered at the scene. These were “jigsaw-style” physical matches—clear, visible break lines that could not be coincidental. Crucially, no glass from the bumper of Karen Read's vehicle (Item 3-3) matched the cup. That undercuts any attempt to suggest the bumper glass proves an alternate chain of events. But the prosecution's win didn't end there. Hanley's testimony also tied red and clear plastic found on John O'Keefe's shirt directly back to the passenger-side taillight of Karen Read's SUV. The plastic wasn't just “similar” in color—it was microscopically and instrumentally consistent, meaning it shared the same optical, structural, and chemical characteristics under forensic analysis (including FTIR and microspectrophotometry). Although forensic scientists stop short of declaring a definitive source, “consistency” across multiple scientific instruments is the gold standard in trace evidence—and the jury heard that loud and clear. This detailed forensic testimony is a massive problem for the defense. The physical match confirms O'Keefe was in proximity to the cup and the scene. The trace plastic suggests direct contact with Read's vehicle. And no glass evidence ties back to any other suspect. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #ForensicMatch #CrimeLabEvidence #ProsecutionEvidence #TaillightMatch #MassStatePolice #TrueCrime #GlassAnalysis #JusticeForOKeefe Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

“I had to find that niche, that core community of people who were trying to solve the same problems that I was and who were passionate about the solution. But if I hadn't found that, I think it would be tough to try to keep promoting your product and your brand without actually knowing where it fits.” —Belinda Lau    Every toothpaste tube and toothbrush we've ever used might still be existing somewhere on this planet!

Let's face it. Our waste habits are, well, pretty wasteful. Every single day, more than 27,000 trees are cut down just to make toilet paper. Meanwhile, the average disposable diaper takes over 500 years to decompose in a landfill, all while leaching harmful plastics and chemicals into the environment. And that's not even counting other single-use sanitary products like tampons, pads, and wipes. Put simply, our throwaway culture is a serious environmental problem.Enter today's guest: Miki Agrawal. A bold entrepreneur and creative disruptor, Miki has built a career out of challenging the status quo. She's the founder of groundbreaking companies like Thinx (revolutionary period underwear), TUSHY (modern bidets), and her latest venture, Hiro Diapers, a game-changing product designed to break down in landfills using fungi-powered decomposition technology. Hiro represents a major step forward in the battle against plastic waste, starting with a natural end-of-life solution for one of the most essential (and wasteful) products in parenting.In this conversation, we explore the hidden environmental costs of traditional diapers, the importance of slowing down to meet the moment, and why nature (hello, mushrooms!) holds the key to designing smarter, bolder everyday essentials.Show NotesHiro DiapersTUSHY BidetsAbout Miki AgrawalFour SigmaticPacha's Pajamas: A Story Written By NatureDo Cool Shit: Quit Your Day Job, Start Your Own Business, and Live Happily Ever After by Miki AgrawalDisrupt-Her: A Manifesto for the Modern Woman by Miki AgrawalBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.

Day 20 Recap: Skull Fractures & Lexus Shards: How Prosecutors Are Proving She Hit John In today's Hidden Killers, we're breaking down what may be one of the most scientifically significant days yet in the trial of Karen Read. Day 20 delivered not just one, but two critical expert witnesses—each bringing their own piece of the puzzle that could influence how the jury understands the final hours of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe's life. First, we heard from neurosurgeon Dr. Aizik Wolf, who laid out a blunt and clinical explanation of how O'Keefe died—and why the injuries don't line up with a violent beating. According to Wolf, the fracture at the base of O'Keefe's skull and the deep brain contusions point to one thing: a backward fall onto a hard surface. Not a bat. Not a hammer. A fall. He testified that the so-called “raccoon eyes” bruising around O'Keefe's eyes—which develops 1 to 3 hours after injury—suggest a delayed death, and possibly a delayed discovery. His testimony didn't just challenge assumptions—it dismantled them. And when the defense questioned his credentials, his answer cut through the courtroom like a scalpel: “I'm not a forensic pathologist. I'm a brain surgeon.” But the day didn't stop there. In the second half, we heard from forensic trace expert Christina Hanley, who took jurors into the microscopic world of crime scene fragments. Hanley testified that red and clear plastic found on O'Keefe's clothing was consistent with the material used in Lexus SUV tail lights—the same type of vehicle driven by Karen Read. She emphasized that while the fragments couldn't be definitively sourced, they were indistinguishable from Read's broken tail light. She also reconstructed part of a shattered cocktail glass found near the scene and noted that some glass recovered from Read's SUV did not match—while others were too damaged to analyze. Today wasn't about one big revelation. It was about accumulating evidence. A fall that may have caused death. Plastic that may have transferred in that moment. Glass that may have shattered at the scene. And expert witnesses who didn't deal in absolutes, but in probabilities and patterns that could be enough to sway a jury. This is Day 20. And we're just getting to the forensic backbone of the case.

We decide if plastic beats paper and whether being hated has its benefits.Featuring: Ivan Decker, Martha Chaves, Nikki Payne, and Bruce Clark.

Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike dives into Romans 7:4-6 and reminds us that we have died to the law so we can belong to Christ and bear fruit for God. He explains how, apart from the Spirit, we naturally produce either plastic fruit—fake and performative—or rotten fruit—sinful and destructive. But through the Spirit, we can bear real, life-giving fruit that reflects the character of Christ. It's not about trying harder; it's about abiding deeper.

Story at-a-glance Research links microplastic exposure to chronic diseases like high blood pressure, stroke, and diabetes, ranking among the top 10 predictors of these conditions Communities with higher microplastic levels experienced significantly more chronic diseases, with risk steadily increasing alongside higher plastic concentrations A study found microplastics embedded in artery plaque, and affected patients were over four times more likely to experience heart attacks, strokes or death Plastic particles trigger inflammation and immune responses when lodged in tissues, raising disease risk even in people without conventional risk factors Effective ways to reduce exposure include filtering your drinking water, avoiding plastic food packaging, using glass containers, choosing natural fiber clothing and considering natural progesterone supplementation to address related hormone disruption

Plastic pollution in the Maldives has become a serious environmental crisis, despite the nation's image as a pristine paradise. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, host Andrew Lewin shares the inspiring story of Zazou Saeed—a young Maldivian surfer and ocean advocate—who rose to become a local conservation hero by campaigning against single-use plastics. From leading beach cleanups to working with NGOs like Save the Beach and Parley for the Oceans, Zazou sparked a grassroots movement that helped influence national policy. Ocean conservation through local action is a powerful force. Zazou used art, storytelling, and education to mobilize Maldivian youth and drive home the consequences of plastic pollution on coral reefs, sea turtles, and marine life. Her efforts were instrumental in shifting public awareness and building momentum toward the Maldives' plastic bans. This episode highlights how one passionate person can make a massive difference for their community—and the ocean.

When Sam Baker approached me about talking about the product he represents, worm casting tea, and also mentioned that WiggleBrew has tested and discovered that earthworms can actually "EAT PLASTIC," it was a no-brainer- I couldn't wait to hear more about that! As a big fan of worm compost (vermicompost), I was very excited to promote the crap (pun intended) out of WiggleBrew, and Sam didn't disappoint. He was talking to me from an Agriculture conference in Chicago, where he presented WiggleBrew, and mentioned he felt over dressed, because he wore a business suit, and the others were dressed more comfortably. But I hope the folks there really heard him like I did- "A team of recent college grads is making a fertilizer from worm poop that row crop farmers are using instead of the toxic stuff. Along the way, they discovered that earthworm microbes can also be used to break down plastic!"This feels like game changing information to me - I mean, the real game changer would be less plastic being produced, of course, but to have earthworms eat it, and then produce fertilizer?? WHOA--From WriggleBrew's website: "it's not all poop jokes and worms over here- there's a more serious reason we're doing this all- more serious than saving habitats. Malnutrition that stems from mineral fertilizer use on crops makes up about 4% of child deaths around the world right now. Mineral fertilizers, like a certain TikTok famous houseplant fertilizer, does not let plants uptake (eat) the micronutrients that we humans need from our food: like zinc, iron, and magnesium. Makes the plants more susceptible to disease too."Check out WriggleBrew's website: https://www.wrigglebrew.com/Find them on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wrigglebrew/and on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PRAGWriggleBrewYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPzJEBVwHWJzbmc15QN5TcQand on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wrigglebrew_officialYou can send me messages(this is new!)!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

In this episode, we're diving into the sticky, satisfying, sometimes stressful world of applying stickers to toys. Whether you're transforming a plain plastic robot into a battle-hardened ‘Bot with blazing insignias, or painstakingly lining up tiny tampos on a vintage vehicle, stickers can make or break the aesthetic of your action figures. We'll explore the pros of pristine placement — that factory-fresh feel, the added detail, the nostalgia! But also, the cons — crooked chaos, peeling panic, and the dreaded sticker sheet with no instructions. We'll share tips and tricks, from tweezers and toothpicks to magnifying glasses and mood lighting (yes, it helps). Should you use soapy water? Should you laminate or leave them raw and risky? So grab your light box, steady your sweaty hands, and settle in for some sticky talk. We're also going to talk about Plastic Empire to see if we should go there someday.

What does the future of money look like when plastic disappears—and payments happen seamlessly in the background?   In this episode of Leadership Next, Mastercard CEO Michael Miebach joins hosts Diane Brady and Kristin Stoller to explore how technology is reshaping the way we spend, save, and connect. With 150 billion transactions processed each year, Mastercard is positioning itself as a key player in the digital economy—far beyond credit cards.  Miebach discusses the company's push to eliminate manual account entry by 2030, innovations in fraud prevention, and why tokenization is central to building trust in a cashless world. He also reflects on his own path—from a German exchange student in Michigan to the helm of a global financial powerhouse—and Mastercard's mission to expand financial inclusion, particularly across Africa. From post-COVID spending habits to the end of card numbers, this conversation reveals why payments are more than just transactions—they're infrastructure for a connected world. 

You can't always see it but plastic is everywhere. So much so – that it's now in our rain and it's there because of humans. It's almost as worrisome as acid rain was in the 1970s – an issue that is no longer a major concern. Host Kris McCusker speaks to Benji Jones, Environmental Correspondent at Vox in New York, about how pervasive plastic has become – and what you can do to mitigate your exposure. We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes. You can find us: Through email at hello@thebigstorypodcast.ca  Or @thebigstoryfpn on Twitter

On this episode, I sit down for a truly fascinating conversation with the CEO of WinCup Holdings, the parent company of Phade Straws, which is changing the way the world uses plastic, one straw at a time.We have a great discussion about eliminating one of humanity's biggest problems, plastic pollution. Our topics include; an overview of the incredible Phade straw and why it's a completely sustainable replacement for plastic, why WinCup chose to be a leader in plastic innovation rather than continue down the path of pollution, how their innovations started with a simple epiphany of “there has to be a better way”, the trials and tribulations of developing Phade straws, the importance of creating a brand that customers want to share and root for, the unintended consequences of innovation including how Phade is helping restore coral reefs, what the future of the plastic industry looks like, and so much more!

“Plastic teachers with plastic words.” That's what Dr. J. Vernon McGee warns us about in our continuing study of 2 Peter as we're advised to avoid deception and are reminded that in the flesh, you and I have no good within us.

Plastic surgery takes center stage—BBLs, nose jobs, fillers, and the rest. Unapologetic, unfiltered takes on the procedures everyone's getting (and pretending they're not).

Headlines are screaming that we have tons of microplastics in our brains — the equivalent of an entire plastic spoon. OK, that sounds terrifying, but is it true? We talk to chemist Prof. Oliver Jones.  Find our transcript here: https://bit.ly/PlasticSpoonBrain  In this episode, we cover: (00:00) A plastic spoon's worth of microplastics?! (05:21) Something dodgy here? (17:39) So how much plastic is in our bodies, really?

When is a cookie a giant letdown? (Nope, not a joke setup.) When the cookie is a crumb compared to the work you do. Because a one-size-fits-all thank-you is just another way to say you don't really see me.

You'll also discover how the Enneagram can be a powerful tool to personalize appreciation and create true belonging. Sure, it may feel like one more to-do at first—but it's actually the shortcut to saving time, money, and your sanity. In this episode, you'll learn: 01:24 What happens when your gratitude isn't in the right language 04:36 The performance outcomes linked to belonging and feeling seen, heard, and valued (yep, we brought receipts) 10:26 How to stop giving “meh” thank-yous that land worse than a vanilla cookie 13:04 What each Enneagram type actually values in appreciation—and how to speak that language 23:34 How to appreciate what you see and want to see more of 27:01 A tiny challenge that leads to big impact Host: Jenn Whitmer Jenn is an international keynote speaker, leadership consultant, and the founder of Joyosity, helping leaders create positive, profitable cultures through connection, curiosity, and joy.

Plastic surgery is one of those things in society that is kind of taboo to talk about. People usually use the phrase "they got work done" as a slight or reason to gossip, but it is also something people are FASCINATED by. People love to look up "botched" procedures, and surgeon videos on what work various celebrities have done. I decided to start the conversation, and get the scoop on the TRUTh behind plastic surgery from my friend Dr. Ben Caughlin (‪@ManyFacesOfChicago‬ ) Sign up for a $1 per month trial at ⁠https://www.shopify.com/rebecca⁠ Follow Rebecca: ⁠⁠@rrogersworld⁠⁠ To watch the podcast on YouTube:  ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/RebeccaRogersYouTube⁠⁠ Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast for free wherever you're listening or by using this link:  ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/WouldYouBelievePodcast⁠⁠ If you like the show, telling a friend about it would be amazing!
