I love that Jackson kept the same theme of magical illusions throughout the closing arguments.

[@MF-cj4by]

He did a great job of pointing out all the “magical” illusions, but did he do enough to plant the seed of reasonable doubt? He spoke mainly to a “cover up” by those in the house and those in charge, but he didn’t speak much about how she couldn’t possibly have done this, at least not to my limited knowledge of what reasonable doubt entails. He made it sound like the cover up aspect was more important than the reasonable doubt aspect, and that is NOT what the case is about. I hope that does not leave the jurors with the feeling that they have to charge her with SOMEthing because she’s the one on trial, JO died somehow, and we have to hold someone accountable. I wish he had leaned more into what the experts said about the lack of evidence for JO being killed by Karen driving at 24.5 mph, in reverse, but leaving NO physical evidence on his body to support that claim. I am probably just paranoid that the jurors will overthink it the way I am and come back with a Guilty verdict. I hope justice prevails and Karen Read is a free woman by Friday at the latest

[@michaelcalland801]

Did I hear Lally right ? Trooper Proctor thought he was in a ….. “ Safe Space to discuss things” when he texting about “Karen’s Leaky Balloon Knot” ? As if everyone should have a safe space to act like a disgusting degenerate? And … “ Proctor never thought that these Texts would be made public” ? Well that’s the whole Point isn’t it? !

[@user-rw8rp3du3m]

The judge needs to resign

[@meganjenkins2384]

I think the fact the argument was about a corrupt police force, it clouded her judgment. throughout those 3 witnesses, I would say she started to be fairer and partial with objections - just saying' lol but before the latter, she was unfair throughout the whole thing, and I came to really really notice it when she decided to let the prosecution have a late witness, but then when the defence did, it wasn't allowed for those reasons. Thats when it really gave an indication of unfairness and bias, alongside allowing objections for the commonwealth but not for the defence . It was like a referree giving a load of free kicks to the opposing team for no reason...the problem is, the opposing team happened to be the comonwealth and THIS IS A MURDER CHARGE. Slightly more at stake than a few free kicks. She wasnt great, but towards the last couple of witnesses, I think her opinion changed, quite DRASTICALLY. She all of a sudden woke up.

DUI motor vehicle homicide. I sincerely believe that she doesn't remember what happened. She was blacked out drunk - that doesn't make her not guilty. I just honestly don't think she remembers.

You know how John Okeefe was killed? There was a fight in the basement. I believe it was between Colin and John or Brian and John possibly. Most likely all three. During the commission of this fight the dog attacked. This happened to me, sort of. My husband and I got into a fight once where we were yelling at each other. I moved towards my husband in what OUR dog perceived as aggressive and he moved towards me growling. Clearly he thought of himself as my husband’s dog/protector. It was startling to us both. He didn’t bite me but he clearly was protecting my husband by growling and moving towards me. If I had made a move he would have attacked, I guarantee it! The German shepherd did the same thing, but actually attacked because it was a physical altercation. I think they dumped the body on the law with the intent of blaming the snowstorm/snow plow/etc. My husband doesn’t believe with how men act that John left that house alive. I wonder if John somehow got out alive but ended up passing out from his injuries and freezing and dying from the brain swelling. My theory actually makes more sense to me because they may have thought he was alive, just badly beaten not thinking they killed him. I think the google search did happen and it was with realization he had passed out on lawn. When the body was discovered, I truly only think a couple or maybe 4 people knew what had actually happened. But to their luck, their house wasn’t searched, they weren’t questioned and Karen just happenstance became the scapegoat. It was a collusion of people not doing their jobs, looking the other way, doing some favors, etc but not some massive conspiracy. It only takes a couple people to have a conspiracy and then side players to not question too deep to make this a crime to get away with. Those are dog bites, without a doubt. John’s head injuries were from some sort of beating. Also, my husband said that those Albert men and their connections would be intimidating to even seasoned Canton police officers. It’s easier to just go along to get along. MA is a very VERY corrupt state, we’ve lived there. These small towns and all their townies look out for each other, it’s like a different world. Karen was smart, pretty and an outsider. She fell in their lap when this all went down but they couldn’t stand her to begin with (trust me on this! I was an outsider) so it was the perfect fall guy/gal!

Who do you suppose got the FBI involved? What did Karen’s dad to for a living, he impresses me as Buck around and find out kind of guy.

The eyes of the law you are innocent until proven guilty… Therefore a not guilty verdict equals innocent.

How strange that defence as well as prosecution had to rush their closing arguments. I get it that they can't go on for 4 hours each but this was BAD.

CW says grass under JO proves how long he was there and that it was before the snowfall, then shows the SUV snow covered with a frozen hair stuck to it proving that"s because she hit him? Pick one Lally... Snowing or Not Snowing..... Also nice slip up stating they drove past the house at 34 Fair@##$..... Uhmm maybe needing to REVERSE 64 feet LMAO

[@ajthom7680]

Will they look into the real murderer??

[@jannater28]

Unbiased 3rd party Experts deemed it impossible based n his injuries and damage to the car that he was hit by her car. End of case. Should take 10min of deliberation.

Omg, the jury is leaving for the day. No verdict. Please Don't let them find her guilty.

[@user-if6hf7ky1t]

She is

[@user-if6hf7ky1t]

She’s as guilty as sin…. Fool!

[@kitkat7871]

@user-if6hf7ky1t you are entitled to your opinion. In my opinion the facts of the trial don't support a guilty verdict. If, in fact, MS Reed did kill OFFICER John O. ,and is found not guilty, the blame will lie squarely on the shoulders of the common wealth. Sloppy investigations are one thing. Collecting evidence in PLASTIC solo cups and being either unwilling or unable to produce an evidence log at a murder trial are beyond Sloppy. They should all be ashamed and embarrassed.

[@md8465]

I know, and I hope they say " not guilty."

[@Vendetta-ta4224]

​@@user-if6hf7ky1t It really doesn't matter if she is. These lying fools don't deserve a conviction.

What about all the cops drinking and driving do they get in trouble? They have admitted it

That is the point to this whole trial they are above the law they broke all kinds of laws the least of which was drinking and driving

[@denisesanders3983]

Was a juror dismissed this morning ??

[@2Bambinos]

Yep. Bev told the jurors this morning that one of them was dismissed.

[@mariecpa2000]

@@2Bambinos She asked Lally yesterday to give her a lit re:something about which alternates he wanted. It was at the end of the charge conference so I imagine he picked who he wanted booted from the jury.

[@2Bambinos]

@@mariecpa2000 That sucks. I still can’t believe this case ever came to court. The entire prosecution including their witnesses and the judge all seem very rehearsed and biased. I pray that Karen is found not guilty

[@JazzyScat]

Lally said the injuries to his arm is easily solved by having his arm folded up hand to shoulder. Lol then the lacerations are in different directions and the bruise on the hand doesn't match the purported dent below the rear window. 😂

[@unknown-7896]

The suspense!!

[@sandihulbert5902]

Bryan Albert is so creepy/weird looking 😳

[@marasch9600]

Okay question.. does Jackson think they kept John in the house for around two hours before dropping him on the lawn? If hyperthermia contributed to his death he must’ve been still alive when he ended up there but if the Snow plow guy didn’t see him at 2:30am.. and whatever happened to him happened at around 0:35-0:50 how does that make sense?

[@You.Tube.Sucks.]

Hypothermia ... and let's say the defense's theory is correct: It likely takes some time to come up with a plan. Perhaps they debated whether or not to move the body OFF the property. Again, I'm truly just answering your question as a hypothetical. I haven't a clue what happened to OJO; the only thing I know for sure is that KR is not guilty of SECOND degree murder!
