I didn't have time to watch the trial. Maybe, if they try her again I can make time to watch it. If they don't retry her I'm watch the first trial on archives. At this point I don't have an opinion.

i definitely need more evidence one way or the other to be able to decide

[@bobalessio6339]

I watched every minute of every court day. Brian Albert, Brian Higgins, and possibly Colin Albert committed murder!! If Norfolk County is serious about law and order, and seeking the truth, they will put all three of them on trial, convict them, and send them to prison!! Along with Jen McCabe, and all others involved in the cover-up! For folks who are short on time but want to really understand the defense position, watch the five defense witnesses in the last three days of the trial. Compelling!!! The FBI should take the lead in investigating 34 Fairview Basement and Bulkhead, and the Sallyport tail light corruption!!! Good show Vinny as always.

Bonnie, you said you want phone GPS. John’s GPS was on. It proved he never went in the house. That was demonstrated in trial by the Lt. It showed him in the yard at 12:24 and never moved. It showed it was impossible for him to have gone into the house. All demonstrated in the trial by MSP using GPS.

She had no idea he was out in the snow. 24). MAGIC HAIR making it all the way to the Sally Port….OK, could of froze on…But then, as all the ice melted off, it was still there and just plucked off the side of the car with a pair of tweezers! 😮…25). Higgins working all hours of the morning, that same morning “drunk” forgetting what he was doing at work and why? 26). The CWs police witness who said, and made a point to say, “the taillight was only cracked. But somehow the entire taillight ended up being totally destroyed and entirely off the car!

Intentional

[@rm-dc6tx]

Why is nobody discussing that there was NO SEARCH of the Albert's house. Notwithstanding that the crime scene was outside, any normal investigator would certainly have secured the house as a possible crime scene and done a thorough search of the house and all of the rooms of the house to eliminate them for being connected to the crime. This case screams COVER-UP and malfeasance by the police and investigators.

[@johndevlin]

I think you're getting ahead of yourself to complain that there was no search of the Albert house. There wasn't even a search of the area where the body was found! Several possible eyewitnesses to the collision (Sara Levinson, Brian Albert Jr., the other people in Ryan Nagel's truck, Lucky Loughran, Caitlin Albert and "Trissy Tightlips", etc) weren't even interviewed until Proctor found out people were getting federal grand jury subpoenas sixteen months after the crime. If this investigation was being done in good faith, in the genuine belief that it was a vehicular homicide, why didn't Proctor ever arrange for a comprehensive search of the accident scene? Why didn't he at least try to interview everybody he had reason to think might have seen the collision? Why wasn't the location of ANYTHING measured? Joe Paul's collision reconstruction is based, in part, on a second-hand *estimate* of where O'Keefe's body had been found. Trooper Joe Paul got it from Lt. Paul Gallagher, who wasn't there when John was found. Some unidentified person told Gallagher that O'Keefe was about seven feet from the curb, and Paul just ran with it.

[@Maria-em3ju]

​@@oiooi6460 The search team arrived at 5.45. The car was taken on a 15 minute drive at 4.16 but Proctor 'mistyped' and wrote that it was collected at 5.30 to cover the missing 1 hour 15 minutes. So they had the vehicle for over an hour before the search team arrived. The tow driver said he left the car outside the sallyport so it's easy to smash it, drive 5 minutes away to 34 fairview, lay the pieces and return to the sallyport before the search team got there. Also a search team had already searched the area, when the snow was softer and before it had been treaded on making it easier to see. They took the leaf blower and moved the snow all the way to the ground but there was no taillight. Taillight was found only after Proctor took the car on a 15 minute journey that lasted one and a quarter hours. That's how the 2nd search team found things. And even though they had shovels its strange that they didn't find all the pieces. They just magically appeared after 2 sets of police searched.

I'm mainly interested in seeing whether the prosecutors will ever show that they're capable of feeling shame. They probably never will; their usual practice is just to ignore new exculpatory information as it arises. But maybe someday? I was looking through the "Statement of Facts" in their last pretrial filing this morning. It says Jen McCabe texted O'Keefe at 12:31 ("Hello"), 12:40 ("Pulll up behind me"), and 12:45 ("Hello"), and that she "observed the black SUV drive away from the house" just after the last one. It's now incontrovertible, from the state's own evidence (Nick Guarino) that the absolute latest Read could have driven away from the house is 12:33 (her first ping off a cell tower other than the one nearest 34 Fairview), and that's if she drove back to 1 Meadows at more than twice the speed limit (there is no evidence that she was speeding at all). So, we know Jen McCabe texted John at least twice (probably three times) after the SUV left. The 12:40 text clearly implies that she can still see the SUV, though it had been gone for *at least* seven minutes. Worse (and I cannot understand why the pretrial filings omit this), she also called his phone seven times during this period, including six times between 12:41 and 12:50. These calls were all deleted from her phone (though not from John's) and she claims they were butt dials. She sent a fricking text after the third call! I think any reasonable person has to admit that this is at least a *bit* suspicious. Incidentally, John's call records also show that he *answered* Jen McCabe's call at 12:29:44 and was connected for 8 seconds. So, until 12:29:52. According to the prosecution's new timeline (from the closing argument), "trigger event 2" (24 mph in reverse) happened at 12:30 a.m. Does this still work? How did Jen McCabe repeatedly miss seeing the body out there in plain view and not 60 feet from where she was standing? What SUV did she see driving away? Was that a different SUV? How come that one didn't see the body on the lawn? She called John at 12:29, got an answer (presumably him saying "I'm here"), then this horrific collision happens at 12:30, then she texts him "hello" a minute later? And she deleted that call? I mean, WTF!?

[@MakeupMobster]

If the mcabes, Albert’s and Higgens wanted to vindicate themselves because this conspiracy existed way before the trial started, why wouldn’t they turn their phones in?

If the full Blackbox data had survived, then this would have been over, either Karen exonerated or not. So given that why would Norfolk Co DA/Troopers not pulled out all the stops to preserve it? Why not get FBI experts to do what they do best? Mistakes like that are what leave such Qs in Peoples/Jurors minds. It starts to look shady how many mistakes the police made. @DutyRon, Ed Wallace, @JoeGiacalone and many more are aghast at how accepted police processes weren't followed, ie like no witness statements were taped nor signed statements.

Even if they have the right person, the investigation was so badly done, and the evidence is so contaminated/ manipulated that there an be no justice from it. The investigation is being investigated. There was so much misconduct that justice simply isn't possible unless someone comes forward and confesses. The evidence doesn't match the state's story. "Evidence" that doesn't show up until the trial starts? Evidence that's effectively missing from the record for nearly 2 weeks... That's not justice. If the family and friends REALLY want justice, they would be willing to look at the TRUTH, which is he was associated with some super shady people. It's easier to blame a girlfriend that no one likes than it is to admit that the victim's own friends might be the cause. That's NOT justice.

@@davidking6986 NO PROOF he was hit by a car! No bruises, no broken bones!!! REALLY???

[@mariee.5912]

Sadly, I don't think the family will get the truth. I don't know if there was a cover up, but it's clear that the investigation isn't reliable and it was manipulated.

[@davidking6986]

Karen's still Guilty

[@user-ukt]

They know the truth.

[@sandrarenner4402]

@@davidking6986what makes you think that? You don’t believe the medical examiners, the reconstruction experts, you don’t trust science and physics? Someone with common sense knows that no car could have hit him. He would have had severe injuries all over his body, bruises, fractures. Do you own a dog? These are dog bites and scratches. I didn’t need to watch the whole trial to come to my own conclusion

[@kerri-lynbryant293]

They already KNOW the truth. You mean... they may never find justice for the person who committed the crime. We shall see...

[@elenarios-cantu1714]

There was no search of house , phones were messed with . House had been remodeled, and sold , the dog . Too much missing pieces.

[@33TimberWolf]

Vinnie, you're missing the point. The defense only has to create "reasonable doubt"; and that just got easier since Proctor has been removed. The prosecutor now has to overcome the FACT that a federal agent (Higgins) went to a US military base to destroy evidence, that State Troopers (Proctor, Yuri, Tully) never conducted an actual investigation (they had Read convicted within 16 hours after only speaking with Alberts and McCabes), and their "expert" (Paul) was not only unqualified, he testified to confirmation bias with zero factual evidence. The reality is that the police never conducted a proper investigation, the DA chose to prosecute despite knowing their evidence was tainted (or worse, falsified), and the O'Keefe family still has to deal with a dead family member that no one seems to care about.

[@miltdta]

Exactly. 👏

Exactly, no matter how unethical or sleazy.

[@merimasviland8006]

You are telling a lawyer and former prosecutor about what legal matters mean? Ok hahahaha😅

@@merimasviland8006 It seemed appropriate since they were acting like the burden of proof was on the defense… 🤦‍♂️

Jesus flippin' Christ, of course he KNOWS that, he was a prosecutor for Petes sake! I get what youre saying, but stop it!

[@user-ukt]

Only the killer can run straight to the body covered in snow in the dark. Luckiest witch who got away with murder due to the sloppy work of CW, manipulative defense, and cult followers. When COD death is not known, there could be other ways she could have killed him, not just by backing the car.

[@doloressosa4351]

Good point.

[@Vlue2000]

It was Jen Mcabe’s idea to go there. She didn’t see the body until the car was parallel to it. Look at the evidence. It’s all there.

[@williamfield6285]

If she had killed him, the CW would actually have a case. Everything would be neat, clean and organized for the start of the trial. But that's not what happened here. A police officer was found dead on another police officer's lawn. So you have to ask yourself why this negligent slop job of an investigation was performed. I'm really only guessing that most of the Massachusetts state PD murder investigations are pretty thorough but if they weren't you'd probably see an abundance of evidence. So one would have to assume there was some special reason this particular investigation was so botched up. One possible conclusion is it's pretty hard to prove something that didn't happen. When you start trying to prove something that didn't happen, it probably looks a lot like this case

[@user-ukt]

@@williamfield6285 Even OJ got off with a high-priced slimy defense. She is the lucky one. She herself, not the mccabes, acknowledged it was an accident. The CW could not match the high-priced lawyers with all the cult members money and hours. I say a cult because, they cant find one single mistake from Karen. Even the disgusting F bomb filled voicemail is justified. smh

[@user-ukt]

@@williamfield6285 Only a handful of murder defendants can afford a defense team like that. Even OJ and Casey Anthony got off with a slick defense team. Accused Gilgo beach killer got away for years because of prior sloppy work , that doesnt mean, there was no there, there nor does it mean the LE has not done a good job on other cases.

[@katrinat.3032]

Right if Karen and John are out front and then John’s phone moves 15 feet and never moves again then boom she hit him

[@sandraknight4751]

If not Karen, it would have been Lucky! Blessings Lucky.

[@Brenda08]

I had that same thought

[@lisajeter9511]

I think without any doubt it was B Higgins and Chloe!

[@rkc8588]

God works in mysterious ways . It was Karen and not Lucky because she can afford the Attorneys .Keep praying for Justice for officer JO and God is the True Judge not Bev 🙏🏽

[@cfawcett9870]

That's what I think they were going to do (or at least hit and run no idea who did it) but Karen woke up and started looking for John earlier than expected so they blamed her. I have no idea exactly what happened to John, but he absolutely was not hit by any car, that part is certain

[@rubyred1ism]

Lucky isn't Lucky for nothing 😅 he's definitely got the right name.

[@kathleenchapman3890]

Did the medical examiner mention blood loss? He lost 3.5 liters of blood... where is it? Soaked into the cement floor in the basement perhaps? That's why they ripped it up immediately.

[@lynettet3970]

Right?! This is what I want to know.

[@ltee2261]

It's very strange and the fact they collected stuff in cups is just crazy

[@KESH-ds1wz]

I’ve never been able to find a reputable source for the 3.5 litres of blood - do you know where this comes from…?

[@Kkay2490]

​@@KESH-ds1wz tb probably. Lol

[@Kkay2490]

She didn't say he lost that much blood.

[@marieswann3204]

Questions: the motive behind the killing? Did John discover something in the Dept? What cases was he working on? What are his injuries consistent with? Why would the girlfriend be used as a cover up? Who picked up her car? Why didn’t the individual driving it up the ramp get details on the cars condition first so as not to be blamed for damage? Why was a trooper involved in this case. Does the dept have a extensive relationship with him? Why were so many in the house?

[@chrislim7615]

And now: Proctor's been re-homed;)***

[@intimacywiththeordinary]

Wouldn't it have been great if the Canton police actually worn body cams, had videos in their interview rooms, didn't have missing times in the places they do have video? It's almost as if corruption, bullying and cover-ups would be much harder to do. Could that be the reason they make sure there is little evidence?

[@DeborahHaley-ok6dt]

At the end of this trial, all 12 jurors should have stood on their chairs and screamed, “How the heck did this man die? If you can’t provide me with that, how am I to judge who is guilty?” This should never, never be retried without details of the mechanism of death!!!
