MA. v Karen Read Trial Day 2- First Responders, Defendant Statements & My Cousin Vinny.

[@GoblinsAreAGirlsBestFriend]

Hi Emily, I just want to say your streams are such a comfort to me right now. I've just sold my dream home after a divorce - it's really the only home I've had in a long time, and I've just moved into my own little townhouse. My family lives on the other side of the world and the move has been scary and overwhelming (especially as someone with diagnosed ADHD) to do all alone. Having your trial streams on while I was packing a month ago, and now while I'm unpacking, is helping it feel like I'm still home, just home somewhere else. Thank you.

A huge hug to you as you make your new space a home to heal in and a space all your own. You've got this and we've got like 8 weeks of trial to get it done. Set things up that make sense to your brain, I love my light dimmers and I putting dishes closest to the dishwasher so they are easy to unload. Somewhere to fold clean clothes near the washer because sometimes they will sit there for a minute....etc. You've got this.

Also Emily... My husband is trying to lose weight and is self conscious. I told him that I'll love him at any size and he said "Nah... you can't know that..." and I'm like "You were skinny when we met 17 years ago and you're not skinny now... pretty sure I've loved you at all sizes in that range." To which he said "I don't see any proof..." And I yelled, "OBJECTION!!! I HAVE DEMONSTRATIVES!!!" and he stopped in his tracks and just goes "What the fuck does that even mean???" And I said "I have photographic proof! I still have my first picture I took of you at Wendy's. I have 17 YEARS WORTH OF PHOTOS.... I.... have.... demonstratives... that I have loved you at every size.... SIR!!!" Just wanted to give you that giggle lol.

This prosecutor with “what,if any?” Almost every single question. “It’s not a cure all”! I had exactly the same thought as EDB when I heard the sirens, and I was like “who’s at Station 1?” Ha! When Emily paused and says the judge is like gtfo, her face literally looked like she was saying “GTFO”😂

[@daniellevanfleet175]

The defense is doing a great job of reasonable doubt they have made me think about a lot

[@claudia5908]

Thank you for this, EBD. I also was frustrated with the prosecutor. He was jumping all over the place. The first paramedic seemed to have adhd. He was the most interesting witness of the day. My cousin Vinny is an awesome movie! I was completely baffled about the leaf blower. You don’t want to blow away evidence. They already established that it was snowing at 6 am. About 4 to 6 inches. Why keep asking? If he had a thick coat, how did he get the injuries on the arm? 🤔 I would think the jacket would protect him? The occupants of the house behaviors was quite curious. Cops take care of their own. Maybe this state trooper took it too far.

[@ellaw356]

Why is there no body cam footage from the cops at the scene?? Does anyone know?

[@sydneyamberkelly]

Love the firefighters testimony. V knowledgeable and easy to understand!

[@kiera_kayaks7521]

I am also watching the Daybell trial. What I have been doing is watching EDB while she's live. And then watching the daybell trial at 1.75 speed and zooming through brakes

[@kellistern816]

Me too!

I am only watching cases with EDB commentary from now on. The commentary is priceless. Ty EDB.

[@Anniebanany1955]

This judge feels so biased to me. Her sighing loudly during the defense questioning, the way she speaks to the defense and a few of her rulings really makes it seems like she has already decided the prosecution should prevail. Also, the lack of grounds on objections is NUTS. Does she just guess what the grounds are?!

[@A_L-qy2qg]

Seriously, at one point the defense is questioning and the prosecution objects and she says “He can have that” begrudgingly?!? Seems prejudicial to the jury?!

[@darkangel4288]

MI here and we call that snow a sprinkle 🤣 im here for all the Emily commentary!

[@Always_Thinking]

In MA we don't call it a "blizzard". Perhaps only in Canton😂😂😂

[@kathleentorres2010]

I've always questioned the tail light breaking upon striking a body. Those things are thick. I don't see a body that bends and moves breaking a light cover like that. This has always hit me as squirrely as heck.

[@therealdeal3672]

Caught part of the live and part replay crew. Glad that Emily is annoyed with the prosecutor, he is so all over the place.

[@InfiniteBubble]

I've been watching hearings for this case for awhile and Judge Cannone is ALWAYS like this. It's not a matter of her just being tired the past couple days. This is her norm and she tends to be more snappy with the defense. And she always wants to get the hell outta there. I remember one hearing she told them the next hearing they would have all day. Well that next hearing came and she limited them to 10 minutes!! Defense had to do some serious adjusting real quick. She's awful....in my opinion.

[@annamelvina216]

Is it just the defense in this case or is she like this for every case? Because right now she's coming across as very biased.

[@Always_Thinking]

Completely agree. She is really getting on my nerves! Definitely hates the defense. She also rented her beach house out to someone in the "family & friends" group but the money was paid to her brother! Js

[@tammygray]

Wow. I have never seen a judge cut things off like that in a jury trial. They usually find a good stopping point -- not right in the middle of an examination.

[@Always_Thinking]

She has consistently done that to the defense throughout all of the pretrial hearings!

[@mak327]

Dang! Emily’s opening statement got me and that was with no prep

[@Certari]

As she said - it’s not that hard! What is the prosecutor doing?!?

[@carliesmith3252]

If I’m trying to ascertain injuries and cause and someone says I hit him, I would be following up “with what”. A fist is a different situation to a car and important for treatment

[@06Joybells]

EDB has me cracking up about the ceiling fan.

[@Princelover-ip4gn]

An officer who says “I don’t remember anything?”. Sir sir isn’t that the purpose for your presence at the scene? Police are supposed to observe, but this cop says “I didn’t see anything, I don’t remember”?

[@Michigan_Tactical]

I'm no lawyer but it seems to me that a witness going into the house, makes the house involved later.

[@melz3671]

This judge acts like everyone is just a big bother to her entire day!!!!!!

[@BlackCatBritt]

lmao at the coffee mixup in the beginning 😂 Dr. B: ?!? Meanwhile, Emily: *busy giving a top tier stump speech to chat* I DIED 😂😂😂

[@origamikiddo2625]

I love but hate EDB's opening and closing arguments cuz they are so good which makes me frustrated the attorney's can't do it like her AND makes me sad well never see her give those actual arguments. But I guess we get to hear them anyway so we are the winners

[@pageslieahead]

Love the Bring the Jury bumper 💜 Judge Newman was great

[@jasl9987]

Defintely love the commentary, duh thats why we are here 😉 ..... but i do appreciate when she pauses the court to talk so we can hear and dont miss the attorneys questions.

[@Sharon_L_W]

I’m getting motion sickness from the prosecution questioning. And my blood pressure rises every time I hear “what if any” 😭

[@LovingBeingNatural1]

Unfortunately, especially in smaller towns where there may be less crime, first officers behavior at crime scenes can be very different. My boyfriend called in a violent SA we came across that was in progress. The cops that came were male and female. Whenever a man tried to get near her she (the victim) became hysterical. She wouldn’t even get in the ambulance because the EMT’s were two rather large men. The male police officer became angry that she would get hysterical whenever he came near and rather than letting his female partner take the lead threatened to arrest her if she didn’t calm down. I think non-standard happens a lot especially in lower crime areas.

[@LovingBeingNatural1]

I should add that the detectives never got the weapon he used because the cops on the scene left without recovering anything or setting up tape.

[@LovetheLed]

That is infuriating! Being in a small town is zero excuse for not knowing how to properly handle a crime scene and a female victim! I don’t care if you have 3 cops on the force! Sheriff’s office and state police are there to back them up with a radio call. Deputies or state troopers should take over if the cops are so incompetent. Those photos don’t show any blood. But he was supposedly found in a pool of blood.

[@JanMike9]

@@LovingBeingNatural1 Some cops are just really stupid and bad at their job. I worked as a dispatcher for over 12 years...believe me, stupidity was no stranger to the PD or FD.

[@randomcat9975]

I don’t know if the logs are important, per se, but this definitely seems like a lot of reasonable doubt. (And yes, I absolutely agree that this plays well with the defense’s opening statement.)

[@Lukkaboc]

Agreed. to me it seems common for everyone to have called in at different times (parking the car, turning onto the street, etc) and I'm not sure if the times are reported by the cop themselves (each may have a different clock) or the dispatcher. The log itself isn't strong evidence for me, however I see the strategy to keep introducing doubt as much as possible.

[@christinanielsen9445]

I love the EMT- Guy! So matter of fact, and proud of his career! I think he was good as a witness..

[@kabbystevens5167]

Point of the paramedics’ cross was John O’Keefe apparently had no coat in his possession going into the house. So where did the coat on John lying on the lawn was…where did that puffy coat come from?

[@krissyridgelawnerd]

I haven't heard that... 🤔

[@margaretkaine3001]

John DID HAVE A JACKET BUT IT WASNT ON HIM. bc…he went into the house and took it off and then was beaten and thrown outside. Thats what the defense is showing. He wasn’t walking in w his jacket on and got hit. They never went into the house where they would have presumably found his missing jacket and his missing shoe

[@Princelover-ip4gn]

Ok I would need binoculars to see that size screen from the jury box!💜 19:42

[@jodiushman7696]

Seriously does every single witness have to give the weather report geez

[@origamikiddo2625]

It's the asking "what if anything so you remember about hearing about inclement weather conditions or anything" like yeah, we all know there was a storm! I don't mind the how did the conditions change or not change, I see that being valid for the ppl there at that time and place. And we're just waiting to hear "wicked cold" or "wicked stormy"

[@Modal_Mixxture]

Just now getting into this case: my cat just had a major surgery and I have to watch him 24/7 for 3 weeks, now I know what I can watch while I'm on nurse duty!

[@izzystanleyfit6517]

I also love how the defence knows which witnesses are likeable + doesn't badger them. I don't think we've seen that yet where they don't resent them - obviously will happen when the lead detective comes on but not sure he'll be likeable 😂
