Karen Read: Not Guilty of Murder, But the War is Just Beginning

from The Birdman Show Podcast · host Tim "Birdman" Simpson

Karen Read was acquitted of murdering her Boston police officer boyfriend in June 2025, but the chaos didn't end there. On this two-hour deep dive, The Birdman Show breaks down the stunning aftermath of one of Massachusetts' most contentious trials. We'll cover the explosive new civil lawsuits: Read is now suing the state police and the town of Canton, alleging a culture of "bigotry and institutional rot." And in a massive countermove, the witnesses she accused of framing her are suing her and the blogger known as "Turtleboy" for defamation.
