Karen Read murder trial full closing arguments from defense and prosecution

[@Pammerrigan]

The Prosecutor has proven he has no actual case. Women ONLY fight with men to work things out who they love and care about. ALL of Karen's actions show how much she loves(d) and cares about him. Fifty phone calls? She was panicked he hooked up with another woman especially when it's 5:00 in the am and he still hasn't come home. Then, she panics and goes looking for him. If a woman were looking for her own missing baby she would see that baby. Same reason Karen saw him first.

[@Musiclover-uo2oi]

You’re absolutely right. Women who don’t care anymore don’t fight. But, that’s too subtle and psychologically complex for the average person to understand.

[@Journey007a]

Alan Jackson did a BRILLIANT job in his closing argument!! I somehow also think a lot of what he said was also in reference to Aunt Bev! “Conflict of interest?! Look the other way” “You have been lied to in this courtroom”! Looking at YOU Aunt Bev! She is an insult to the bench and should NEVER have been allowed to preside over this kangaroo case! Her behavior, along with the Alberts, McCabes, Higgins, and Proctor is just gross!

Has anyone considered Karen Reed may have been having panic attacks and a major meltdown that morning ? Which is why she repeatedly asked the same question? Finally, not everyone cries - her outlet at that time seemed to be purely confused adrenaline. Not rational. She was slowly losing the relationship with Mr. O’Keefe, then found him close to dying. Doing mouth to mouth and cpr immediately regardless of all the blood. Isn’t it possible at that point of immense grief Karen lost her sense of self? I don’t see her being vindictive.

[@blueangel7748]

Defense Attorney Alan Jackson and his team dismantled the prosecutor's "blue wall" brick by brick using the truth, the forensic science and an unwavering belief in his client's innocence. There was Jackson giving a brilliant closing argument in hammering home their case to the jury. Hopefully the real perpetrators will be brought to justice. That said, in another high profile case in Delphi, In, the defense is facing similar elements: a judge that has demonstrated bias, the possibility of a coverup by officials, etc... I have no doubt that Defense Attorneys' Baldwin and Rozzi will represent their client with the same passion that Alan Jackson demonstrated to his client.... stay tuned.

[@ralphdrees4413]

I have never seen a public trial where every comment section that I have looked at during the trial was so universally on the side of the defendant being innocent. Normally even clearly factually innocent people are facing calls to be publicly executed in town squares. That Karen Read is so clearly supported by the public when accused of murdering a cop says all that needs to be said. And if it started that way and continued to be that way after all so called evidence has been presented, that speaks volumes I think.

No comparison. One was precise, passionate, fully engaged, believable, compelling, professional, sucsint, and had composed his closing argument to conclude within the alloted time frame. Exceptionally well done. The other was indifferent, seemed board, scattered, misleading, not engaged with the jury, avoided the jury panel., unprofessional, and based on his notes, he had compiled about two or three pages more than he could ever have had time to say within the time allowed. He ended sloppy and poorly. He left me with the impression that he didn't enjoy carrying the water for the unspoken murderer/s. I believe she will be found NOT GUILTY.
