Explosive Closing Arguments in Karen Read Trial! Lawyer LIVE

Closing arguments just wrapped in the Karen Read retrial, and this might be the most important day yet. The defense came out bold, the Commonwealth pushed back hard—and now, it’s all in the jury’s hands. Let’s break down what each side said, how it landed, and what might happen next.

A new jury will decide Karen Read’s fate in the coming weeks.

The first Massachusetts jury deadlocked over whether Read murdered her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O’Keefe, by hitting him with her SUV. Read says she was framed by corrupt law enforcement protecting one of their own.

O’Keefe was found dead in the yard of fellow officer Brian Albert’s home in Canton. Prosecutors claim Read dropped him off at a party there—then struck him with her vehicle while leaving.
