BONUS: The Karen Read Case Explained — Prosecution vs. Defense

from This Feels Criminal: A True Crime Podcast (Formerly Killer Queens) · host This Feels Criminal | Formerly Killer Queens

In this bonus episode, we’re breaking down the two drastically different narratives at the heart of the Karen Read case — one that’s captured national headlines and divided a Massachusetts town. The prosecution says Read struck her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, with her SUV during a snowstorm. But the defense claims she’s been framed in an elaborate cover-up to protect insiders. We walk through both sides of the case and invite you to draw your own conclusions. This is the perfect primer if you’re just diving into the case — or if you want a refresher before following the trial coverage. Remember Tyrella is also covering the second trial of Karen Read in real time over on our YouTube channel, with weekly recaps, key testimony, and trial analysis.
