This officer won't be getting officer of the month award. Time to retire .
Perhaps when she said it was "her fault" she meant dropping him off at the party 😬😬
Yes I just made the same post before reading this. Time will tell.
Update: At first the officer said he never heard her say this. Months or so later in a deposition his story changed. Don't quote me but this is my understanding on what little I've seen. The point is this is already suspect right out of the gate. Please feel free to correct me As I just want the damn truth. A man has lost his Life
@@bagdadbob3391 that officer should be released from his position. He did not investigate anything.
The guy said "it had been a strong blizzard all night." Then he said that "the body had a light dusting of snow on it." So if his body had been outside all night, he would have had just as much snow on him as the cars and other things that were left outside all night
Good point ☝️
"white out conditions"
All the yelling, and the residents dont come out..sus
Yeah, im sure dogs were barking everywhere tho it was cold, so the weather could have had something to do with it! Cant wait 'til thurs!
it’s a weird neighborhood. I walk it sometimes i live near there.
I would be outside checking out what is happening in my yard.
*** Free Karen Read ***
Okeefe justice ? Who cares ?
Officer Saraf DOES have a "dog in the fight". He is friends w Chris and Kevin Albert.
And that's why he entered the cover-up.
Why didn’t that come out how do you know that?
Police report - wrong Police dispatch log - wrong Scene of death, everyone walking in and put, leaving footprints walking into the house, nobody knows who is who? I mean???? The sevond officer's interview was a joke- clearly a millenium, but it seemed as he was somoking something- Duhhh
They’re protecting each other and need her as their scapegoat.
If she meant to kill him, why would she do it in front of a house full of cops who knew she was the one dropping him off there? And if she meant to kill him, why would she return to the scene and admit she was the one who did it? It doesn't make sense. The Prosecution's theory is so hard to believe, and they would need serious evidence to back it up. That's going to be hard, because Proctor's behavior adds doubt to all evidence that could have been planted. Technological evidence and impartial witnesses are the only things that can be trusted in this trial.
Where did the evidence of her car going x mph y distance come from? If it was her car computer then that could likely be slick road and spinning tires. If evidence was from her phone location then couldn't the people who had her phone and doing searches also take her phone for car ride to fabricate the going backwards evidence.
When I first heard about this case I was like: oh bullshit they set you up lady. But WOW! Complete cover up. Truly incredible.

KR counsel are obnoxious. If I was a juror it would turn me off!! They are like the snakes here in Australia. They lay in waiting and strike when you least expect it! Nasty! It wouldn’t hurt for Karen Read to acknowledge the judge when she says ‘good morning Miss Read!… says a lot about her character!!
Dude is wheezing sitting still. Are we for real, Massachusetts
What do you mean , he’s a detective what’s his nervous on stand or overweight have anything to do with Massachusetts, 😂 you guys are ridiculous let me guess you 20 years old
This guy is a cop? Time to retire dude.
Half assed job, doesn’t surprise me.
Why hasn't this case been dismissed already???
It wasn’t dismissed pre-trial as, in the judge’s opinion, the fibbing during the grand jury process wasn’t bad enough to vitiate the indictment. It hasn’t been dismissed *during* the trial because the evidence is still coming out. At the end of the prosecution’s case, the defense will make a motion for a directed verdict of acquittal, and it might work, depending on how the medical and technical evidence looks at that stage. I have no idea how they think they can prove O’Keefe was hit by a car. Maybe they’re still sitting on a bombshell, who knows? A better question is why the DA hasn’t dropped the charges. I can only guess, but I think the answer is that he wants to find out what the FBI has on him.
He changed his testimony 3 times. Not a good look.
Why would a police officer not write down a confession? Maybe there wasn't one.
If anyone wonders what the Salem witch trials were like well, here you go. The bonus is that they are both from the land of liberty.
Is there no videos...ring doorbell footage?
No! Mysteriously it’s all disappeared or cameras weren’t working!
Cops covering up ?
@@blucky1250 sounds like a cover up to me too. Have they gotten to the point of why did his co-workers treat him that way?
Nope.
Lots of security cameras and ring doorbell cams. They ALL mysteriously stopped working during the incident. The same thing happened with ALL of the street's traffic cameras along the route that Karen drove.
They need physicals for police officers past the academy for goodness sake
Why he’s a detective 🕵️♀️ uses his brains not chasing crooks over fences
Framed. 100%
Is there proof she actually dropped him off hours earlier? Any CCTV footage of her route after leaving the bars?
No cameras in the area were working.. not one of them
@@Jason5000 how convenient!
Only someone with a guilty conscience would try to label this murder by Karen.
Someone needs to sit outside that courtroom photo the police cars with sirens blaring during the court sessions and find out if they were really on a emergency run and not disrupting the court in support of fellow officers. You hear that Canton police?
Acting like he didn't know the address!!!!
With all the screaming,shouting going on,none of the ppl in the hse came out???Totally absurd
Oh. Well he couldn't because then he would interrupt a crime scene or something.... 🙄🙄👀👀
Sounds like an accident, not murder
Yea that’s what I think and either didn’t realize severity or that she hit him , than started lying to avoid being in trouble or drunk and didn’t remember details till too late I don’t see her as a murder but I certainly don’t think it’s a conspiracy and his freinds did it set her up
She doesn’t just deserve her freedom at this point. She deserves compensation.
She hit and killed him accidentally because she was very drunk
Big time!! 💷 💵 💰
@@ThePatynightwhat I think too
@@ThePatynightyes 100%
Corrupt cops
karen looks very tired today
Guilt tends to age people
Stress ages and exhausts people.
@@kamalalove6083stressing because you’re being FRAMED can too
'Everybody's manipulating Everybody' ' lol : THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE
In his world he really believes everyone is that way! Scary! Some of us hate manipulators
The Mc Cab woman went in the house at 6am! That's huge! So, the Alberts knew O'Keefe was on their lawn!!!!!
???????????????
Could someone help me with a question..do the people inside the house say he never entered into the house?
Yes, they say he never enters
Exactly. They deny he went in but his health data proves he did!
@@blucky1250 thank you so much ! As I missed the beginning of the hearing I didn't know! Thanks again blucky
@@blucky1250in what way, please?
They saying he has bite marks and black eyes and cops beat him with there dog dragged him to end driveway broke Karen light to make look like she did it 😂
Why does canton have so many sirens going off during this trial? Are the local police driving by the court showing their support and blaring them? I live in a large town next to the fire station and I never hear that many sirens. Maybe they do anyone that lives there know for sure?
can't remember what the ground condition were when the body were lifted, but had to state vividly that there were no footprints from the house
Karen is INNOCENT.!!!
Not by our laws on the books any accidents under influence automatically your at fault
You would think that as a police officer in a small town, you would remember some more details about the time you found a dead body in the snow. I really don’t think that he would forget what the guy had on for clothes. Doesn’t remember what kind of car was there when he pulled up that night…
This DA sounds ominously and annoyingly like DA Binger from the Rittenhouse trial, it’s freaking me out.

STOP being so bias - report the information without your opinions please. There are some of us who believe she is innocent. I have family and friends that are City Police, Sheriff's Deputies and DPS. Not all but you do find dirty hands protecting their own.
Hate court tv staff politini ( or whatever his stupid name is) is such a fake ass drama queen.
Have you noticed how all these guys have the sniffles or clear their throat regularly? 🤔
This cop must have seen pedestrians hit by cars before he didn’t think it was strange that this guy was 2 miles from his house in a snowstorm And Canton police didn’t have warrant to search house unless they noticed something wrong Cops should’ve investigated further
I mapped that rout from Officer Saraf to the house 34 street. 1.5 miles takes 5 minutes in dry weather doing the speed limit. He did it in 4 minutes so faster that he pretended. He pretended like it was blizzard conditions and it took much longer than normal. In reality he beat the dry sunny time by 1 minute. In reality it was not 6" of snow either. Wonder if you asked him what 2+2 =? That Boston math might say 5 or 6 not 4. Also 1.5" of snow in Michigan = 6" in Boston I guess. The visibility was well over a 1/4 mile he has bad wipers and too slow a setting but its not blizzard conditions by a long shot (that came many hours later) Just wonder why they are so far off on the amount of snow and conditions. Seems to be a narrative they are pushing. They are not even close on it. Also their 3D video of the scene has the body like 30 feet left (towards the house at 32 fairview Rd). Not even close to where it actually was. It was not by the hydrant or phone/box it was in front of the flag pole. between the curb and flag pole. All of this is easily verifiable. Makes one wonder if they can't get the easy facts right can you believe everything else?
Yes I noticed that too. not close to 6" of snow.
way too many “what if anything” questions. it’s such lack of foundation
Who found the body??
How could she have left him in the snow to die when she was there attempting CPR on him?
EXACTLY
How many cops are going to prison. Asking for a friend
👏🤣! But... probably zero, right?
A slew of reasonable doubt.

The lady at the court breathing into the camera is so annoying.
That’s the judge! She also has a connection with the McCabes. Imagine.
This is probably one of the only cases i have been following along that have me questioning everything..
The judge sighs when the defense cross examines. It seems like she is irritated, and “short”.
She is not impartial. She has personal ties to law enforcement.
The judge should be aware of perception, dont see a lot of "neutral" on her part! To the opposite! At least so far! Too many details, Im watching like a Hawk! So far, is obvious who's on PD's side and who's not! Certain sights and comments are not easy to control- not everyone can master a poker face to perception, and dispire of years of training, when the questioning tables are tutned around, deceptive indicators are common traits! Very intersting! Shes not guilty! Thats my take after just 2 days-
@@josiesommer13 The judges behavior could be grounds for a mistrial.
@@PJTYLER Im trying not to blink! I also learned in which Dept John was working, almost 16 year long career! Not sure if anyone has thought of the fact that 1. Maybe he got in the way? 2. Was he investigating a case that was perhaps delicate? 3. Was there a promotion coming up, or anything that would instigate grief/beef? 4. Why was it that Karen didnt feel like going to that house? And why would he if she didnt? I am looking forward to the investigation on his texts/calls! And I hope this doesnt reveal something far greater than blamingvthe girlfriend! One never knows!
I agree. She doesn't hide that she wants defense to shut up and go away. Very annoying!
What on earth..she drives a Lexus SUV..how in backing up is she going to hit him breaking her tail light, he is under snow, how would she even know he was there when backing up?

he was never UNDER snow,, it was a dusting
One could argue she felt responsible because they argued and she dropped him off earlier. That was my take on her saying it. Red flag to me was all he saw was blood on the victims face that had been wiped off. More will be revield. Just my thoughts so far.
What’s up with this officer. Isn’t he loyal to his “ BROTHERS “. Maybe he’s been mistreated. I always try to figure out why someone wouldn’t stand up for their brothers 🥲😮
How’s he supposed to stand” up for his brothers ?
Are you serious or sarcastic?
You mean like lie on the witness stand, is that what you mean, loyalty to his “ Brothers” you might actually be stupider than he is!
2 black eyes are usually from a hard crack to the bridge of a nose w a heavy fist
I haven’t heard anything sus about the police department so far. So far she looks guilty to me
Lol
Hahahaha:::: My Man, You’re HILARIOUS. THIS IS THE PROSECUTOR QUESTIONING HIS OWN WITNESS!!!!!!!! Of course you’re not going to hear anything “sus” during THE PROSECUTION QUESTIONING THEIR OWN WITNESS!!!!! Watch the Cross-Examination of this officer, which is now posted --- The Defense Attorney has GRILLED HIM to a point where it’s OBVIOUS he added Quotes from Karen in April 2022 that he didn’t include on January 29th and January 30th reports, the day of and the day after he was found and died. IE::::: He’s trying to tell THE JURY that he REMEMBERED MORE about what she said April 2022 than he remembered on January 29th & 30th 2022. In other words: HIS MEMORY MIRACULOUSLY GOT BETTER 3 months later!!!! The Defense destroyed this cop’s testimony.
@@wildmercuryfilms it's unbelievable the way people can just ignore the total obliteration of a witness and just act as if nothing happened.. this guy got smoked
She hit him probably accidentally or didn’t realize severity and they all would’ve helped but couldn’t because alcohol was involved , you guys go crazy with conspiracies
People are really unfriendly in Boston apparently. The judge is extremely without any politeness or any luxury like kindness. I could see me shouting I hit him as an explanation if nothing else made sense to me. Did you know when Tammy Daybell's cousin was told on the phone that Tammy was dead, it's didn't compute. She thought Tammy was too healthy. Her brain literally couldn't find a place to write such a 'truth' it didn't make sense. So her brain rejected it and she said someone else. It took 3 times for her to be told no , it was Tammy! With Karen, this must've been a shock for her. If she was trying to hide a murder, she certainly wouldn't respond this way. 'I hit him! ' I think it was either a question, or she just hit a bump and thought that must've been him. And she said it over and over because she couldn't make it make sense in her head. The only reason the DA decided to over charge her was because they're really upset, they're mad and they're getting even. Now they're getting even with that group too. They don't make sense.
I learned they’re not friendly going to red Sox game . Ya I think it’s vehicular manslaughter because she was drunk
Northern folks are not “unfriendly.” They’re more reserved emotionally than most Southerners, but not unfriendly. As to the judge, she’s not at all “unfriendly.” She’s polite, gracious, but shows no display of emotional nonsense. Good for her!
Who’s the guy chewing on an onion seated in front of the judge? That’s an odd lunch.
😂 I didn't think they allowed food in the courtroom ... ? Sure it was an onion🧅?
@@mollykillarney2419 lol it’s in the first few seconds at the beginning when she switches to the court room. Sure looked like an onion lol
No one is eating. The man looks like he has some sort of mask or something covering his mouth.
It's Boston. Very strange place. If you haven't seen the movie Spotlight, it's worth it! They took down the Catholic Church in Boston, but everyone was networked with everyone and nobody wanted to tell on anybody even tho children were being harmed! That's how Boston is. Very insular, snobby. This judge even is hateful to defense attorneys. They aren't her people. But spotlight didn't even change the town. But for a minute. I hope this tears it down

@@lydibug51 🤣
I believe she hit him and panicked
You're clearly wrong and uneducated
Why are they trying to frame her then?
Maybe.. she was in an alcohol blackout.
If she backed up and hit him, where are the tire tracks on the lawn? Where are the injuries from the tires on his body?
Why wasn’t his body completely buried in the blizzard that had been going for 5 hours then?
She looks cold
Duh!!!!! My Man, It was SNOWING & Very Cold out. The DashCam shows all the snow. ❄️ You’d be Cold, too. It’s January In Massachusetts.
Said SHE”” not okeefe .
I don't think she was admitting to his death, I believe she was blaming her self for not being with him, survivors guilt, if I only been with him if I only talked him to come home with me so many ifs in her mind if I only, maybe he would be alive.
Murder, she won’t be convicted of involuntary manslaughter. I hope his pending retirement is in the works as is the ADA that allowed him to testify, absolute disgrace.
This BS. Let her go!
She should tell truth probably just an accident but I guess she had a duty to see if he was ok huh ? I’d like to hear okeefs siblings beliefs

She's as innocent as OJ and Casey Anthony.
It could be he slipped hit hand on car making a noise then want in the house (hmm she heard a sound but drove away) Then he gets the snot beat out of him falls into the basement with a dog biting his right arm through thick shirt (Not bare skin) Hits head on the barbells in the basement passes out. Later is dumped in the lawn as they don't want his drunken vomit body in the basement. He had a "Egg" on his forehead. That is not racoon eyes from a skull fracture that is from something else. Jen McCabe seen on police video today walking into that house to warm up or something. "How Long to Die in Cold" Searched by Jen McCabe at 2:27am then two more times at 6am. Sector recovered wal sql files can't be faked and are replaceable. Which means yes someone did that search from that phone at that time. WHY?
