#CourtTV - Is this justice?
No bc she deleted the two ring doorbell videos of her car and WITNESSES saw it. She said I hit him I hit him. Why would she even think way that am????
I believe Karen to be innocent.
@@KoolTand probably washed blood off her car too and why only touch dna was left
Absolutely as everyone did there job but there was reasonable doubt and proven corruption from the lead investigator. Justice was completed here
No. A couple science denying kooks are keeping an innocent woman under the thumb of the CW.
Am I missing something?? Forget if she did it or not, the prosecution did not prove that she did beyond a reasonable doubt.
The prosecution DID prove beyond a reasonable doubt to at least some of the jury so your statement is lame.
I'm guessing it will be some jury members who were die-hard "blue line" supporters that couldn't possibly see the Forrest through the trees.
@@Unknown-account3it may be lame to you but it's the truth. If the prosecution did prove beyond a reasonable doubt, why was she not found guilty?? That makes your comment lame.
@paulinedavis772 my guess is that there are some die-hard "blue line" supporters in the jury. It's not far fetched considering the "deeply rooted differences" that the jury described. They won't be able to take off their rose coloured glasses and look at this objectively
@Unknown-account3 NO they absolutely did Not! Some of those jurors brought into play their OWN "MORAL beliefs & Conviction" which has No place into Conviction of Anyone!!!
Forget a retrial......enough money wasted, maybe investigate the police department, how it works and try to clean it up.
THAT would at least be worth the time and effort of the justice system! It is inexcusable that the poor O’Keffe family will never truly know what happened to their loved one!
FBI is working on it
@@randilowery9669ask the McAlberts, they know.
You mean to tell me, that the commonwealth actually think that putting, Procter, bukkake, Paul, and the McCabes on the stand again would be a good idea? They will NEVER convict that woman of killing John Okeefe. Hopefully the FBI will put a stop to this nonsense.
BINGO
Why in Gods name would Brian Albert and Higgins rid their phones, dog, floor, many butt dials if they are so innocent
AMEN
💥💥💥💥💥💥
Exactly
Exactly!!
Butt dials that hung up when voicemail picked up
Paul Okeef literally said to Karen "I'm not done with you yet." His wife had to tell him "stop it" when he walked by Karen. Insane, she needs to get security and a restraining order.
This sounds a culture of revenge not real justice.
Absolute insanity, what a foolish move by him.
You’d think he would want the real truth instead of vengeance!
These people are all nasty bullies.
Do you blame him? He thinks she killed his brother!
Someone(s) looked at the prosecution's evidence and was ready to convict *beyond a reasonable doubt* ? Scary. Meanwhile, Casey A is walking the streets
So true !!!! 🎉 well said @hze1234
Florida is a different animal!
Did you mean Colin Albert.
IT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE COPS
Right. 🤦🏻♀️ What is wrong with our society
That whole police department should be prosecuted. Poor woman
Poor woman? Hardly! Poor family of John OKeefe who didn’t get justice yet but will in the next trial.
the coverup up is statistically impossible - we need adults to get more common sense - we have become such a stupid nation - we need women to stop believing everything they hear.
@@acc4465 impossible? You need your head checked 😂
And I'm not in the states so .... lol
@j.c.7555 yes poor woman. Set up by a corrupt bunch of cops who set her up. End of story
How about investigating the Alberts and the McCabes?
Absolutely 💯
AMEN. SOLD HOUSE DOG GONE, CLEANING UP PHONE? WTH, AND JOHNS BROTHER IS MAD AT KAREN? RIP JOHN AND PEACE TO ALL PRAYERS TO ALL. LET THE TRUTH COME OUT. SOMEONE NEEDS TO TELL TRUTH.
Exactly
Hopefully at the very least Jen McCabe is not allowed to work with children it’s a terrifying thought she was alone with children.
Oh you mean the woman these people put in their tribute video? That snaggletooth witch with a B saying "I love John, he was my friend". Yeah sure Jen
Who the hell thought there was enough evidence to convict?!?!? She is innocent!!! That lead detective is one of the MOST IMMORAL, UNETHICAL, UNPROFESSIONAL, & overall DISGUSTING individuals I have ever heard of in law enforcement
@MyLife-n8x People say anything. Evidence is what is most important. People confess to crimes they have not committed all the time. Besides, there is no record saying she used those words. These words were expressed and attributed to her by those who should have been investigated in the first place. The whole investigation was a debacle.
@Myguve it a rest, who wouldn't 2nd guess themselves when the had the mastermanipulator putting that bug in your ear n u know u dropped him off, u were drinking n don't remember everything clearly, n are distraught and in shock?
But here's the facts, both experts hired by the FBI both said his injury's and the damage to the car WAS NOT CAUSED BY an accident between the car n JO'K body
Life-n8x
PROCTOR IS A PIG!!!
Give that a rest! I believe that's been twisted more than a pretzel ! That's all there is ?!😂@MyLife-n8x
At least he was exposed. I hope he loses his job.
What Canton should do is to finish the INVESTIGATION to POLICE CORRUPTION 1st. SMH Don't let these COPS get away with MURDER
Exactly in investigate the cops the lead detective the guy that was crushing on Karen the Albert's the Mcades
@@ericalameda8502 So true!!!
@@Alie-kn4tetrue and others texts were nasty and hateful yet they didn't know her only of her. Dirty cops cover up.
The FBI Will
@@ericalameda8502 no one can answer this question? Where is the proof his police friends in the house beat John up and (THEN THE DOG BIT SCRATCHED HIM?? I.NEVER SAW BIT MARKS FROM THE DOG) YOU ACTUALLY HEARD FROM HER MOUTH SHE HIT HIM, IS HE DEAD! THAN SHE SAID THIS EVENING ON TV, IM THE ONLY WHO CALLED 911? ANOTHER LIE!!! NOTICE!! SHE HAS NEVER SHED ONE TEAR!!! NO ONE CAN SEE THREW THIS!!
The fact that they didn’t return a “Not Guilty” verdict within the first two hours of deliberation is beyond terrifying… The prosecution didn’t come within a country-mile of proving a single charge ‘beyond a reasonable doubt’.
This outcome shatters any remaining faith I had in the US justice system, and confirms a troubling reality: there must undoubtedly be tens of thousands of patently innocent people locked up in American prisons for crimes they clearly did not commit.
Utter insanity.
💯 1 of 4 are innocent on death row. It is truly frightening.
Zero evidence… waste of money to retry
tons of evidence.
Disagree and so did the jurors. They did not agree and it wasn't just one. Respect the process and the jurors that took their role seriously and would not cave to please all of you Karen Read lovers.
@@melaniel7121 What happened to KR, could've spent the rest of her life in jail on bogus charges, could happen to any American! An insider went to the defense & told them KR was innocent, they know exactly what happened {in the house} & FBI knows it too! Orange is the new Canton!
@@acc4465 The independent FBI investigators say otherwise.
@@amireallythatgrumpy6508 the fact that they are involved in this trial says they aren’t really
independent.
his injuries could 100% be caused her car exactly the way the prosecution said. the fbi did not say they couldn’t be - they said a vague ‘inconsistent’ statement - it’s basically a meaningless statement.
so i’m not really sure what you are saying.
THIS PROVES MY BELIEF THAT SOME PEOPLE JUST WANT TO PUNISH SOMEONE REGARDLESS OF EVIDENCE. THIS TRIAL WAS A CUT AND DRY AS ANY I'VE SEEN.
Always that way.. Sick!
Yes. Going through something very similar with the "just punish someone regardless of evidence". They love to look for the scapegoat that they think is the most vulnerable
Where did you go to law school?
@@marthabagley3934The law is that jurors must believe the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt and to a moral certainty in MA to convict someone. The evidence did not prove any of the elements of this crime, therefore, no juror should have been able to vote guilty. That is the law..
There are some people that will ALWAYS side with police. The back the blue crowd.
Wait so there were jurors who were selected that didn't understand whatsoever what "beyond a reasonable doubt" means? Gosh thats scary.
Yes it is scary indeed.
This is exactly why I loathe the idea of a jury, and especially being selected (forced) to serve on a jury. I couldn't imagine being stuck in that room with a bunch of idiots who HONESTLY BELIEVE THE PROSECUTION PROVED BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT that she murdered O'Keefe. Disgusting
Well said!!
Yes. It's really sad so many believe that just because the prosecution bring charges the person MUST be guilty, even if they have no evidence to PROVE guilt beyond a resonable doubt..
It's disgusting.
@@LaLaLonna Well, when we say prosecution, we are saying the state of Massachusetts. Just like the countless cases that did not get publicity that maybe a defendant was falsely committed. A state that prides its self on human rights, this crap, that crap. If this was a case in states like AL, MS, TX, the whole talk would be about these states don't support human rights, etc. but it happened in Mass just like the same type of case in NY or CA.. Someone did make a good point about the jury selection and the jurors being forced to serve. I completely agree. I was once forced on a case that eventually did not happen even though I made it clear to the judge that there was bias that I knew. It did not matter. When the judicial system works the way people think it should go, it seems to glow, when it doesn't then everyone questions it.
I cannot believe that there was a single person on that jury that believed that prosecution proved beyond reasonable doubt that she is guilty!
i hope they tell us how many were for guilty & how many ppl weren’t. i’m so curious
She's Innocent! There are too many dirty cops out there, sad!
And we sat and watched the dirtiest one of all Proctor😢😢
Next best-seller : "If I did it... " Autor: Karen Read with the colaboración from OJ Simpson.
💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️
Cant she be guilty AND there still be dirty cops? Cuz thats PROBABLY the real truth.
That's what she was hoping you'd all think .
I'd be shocked if they ever get twelve people to agree on this case.
Agreed! I would bet they never will. There is too much gray area for any jury to 100% agree. I don’t know why they would waste the courts time and tax payers dollars on trying this again.
@@Darcie-smaltIt is important because once Karen is acquitted they can bring real justice for John.
@@Darcie-smalttoo bad the investigators didn't think OJO was important enough to do a proper investigation and act in a professional manner.
The verdict form and instructions from judge Bev contributed to the mistrial. Her only instruction was to convict. Wink wink. Nod nod.
It's a hard case. So much could have happened. Maybe they ALL are at fault. No one thinks of this!
If the prosecution retries this case after all the evidence showing the misconduct of the investigation that would be a crime.
Nope why did she delete the 2 ring videos of that morning 😮
She didn’t have access to deny the ring videos, Proctor sure did though.
@@KoolTThat was proved already. You must have missed it. Karen did not have access to the ring video. You know who did though!
Canton police will drive by the house and find more evidence for the new trial.
@@KoolTDid you actually watch the trial? I am assuming no because it was clearly stated that Karen did not have access to it but Proctor did and he deleted it because it showed the taillight intact.
Good luck finding a jury next time around.
Ikr? We all know who did it
they are ok if they’ve heard of case but just have to be willing to be unbiased
What’s so sad is John didn’t get justice. He was lost in this case
The O’keefe family, as well as everyone else, should want justice; ie. they should want the REAL perpetrator prosecuted and imprisoned.
“The shadiness was soo shady”💯Marie said it perfectly. The state police botched their investigation and tainted the case from the start. The commonwealth prosecutors were bound to take a loss either way with an acquittal or a mistrial. Another victim without any justice SMH.
The defense needs to change the venue and have a bigger courtroom.
New judge wouldn't hurt
I think it was AJ who didn't want the bigger court room , because of where the witness stand was in reference to the jury box
👏👏👏👏 so happy for KR and hoping for true justice for OJO 🙏
THIS CASE SHOULD HAVE NEVER GONE TO TRIAL EVIDENCE JUST WAS NOT THERE WE WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO JOHN OKEEFE HIS FAMILY HAVE THE POLICE TO THANK FOR THIS SHAME ON THEM
Absolutely! This investigation was bungled and mishandled from THE VERY BEGINNING! SHAME on that police department and everyone involved in this blatant display of ignorant incompetence!
The amount of people who lean guilty simply because of Ms. Read’s appearance is disturbing.
I’ve noticed a handful of people that say guilty because that’s how they get any attention in life, by being controversial. The others are women, that simply hate women that are skinnier than they are, that take care of themselves, etc. Men, could be haters because they are rejected by pretty women, Karen reminds them of the women that rejected them. It’s all I can figure out because of all the evidence, the science from the two ARRCA men providing science and obvious reasons the Lexus didn’t hit him.
I wouldn't say it is her "appearance. It might be more her demeanor and sometimes the cockiness of the entire Free KR Movement. Too much too soon. And no, I am not on the "guilty". Am torn though.
Beyond disrespectful of JO brother to be mad and say something disrespectful to KR after the mistrial. The people he should be mad at are the investigators and CW for the way this entire case was mishandled from the beginning. Just like any defendant who goes to trial, she is fighting for her freedom. I do hope the best for the Okeefe family. it's horrible with everything they have been through, but i believe they should really take a step back and look at the full picture.
He is a coward.. he cant stand up to Mccabes and Brian Albert so he is blaming Karen. Even after all he has heard in this trial . Coward Paul.
Meaning no disrespect whatsoever, but i really would love to know why, after all the evidence, the O'Keefes are 100% sure Karen did this
I sure wouldn’t be happy if I were Karen. She’s most definitely going to have to go through this process again and that sucks!
😅good
Could have been worse, could have been a guilty verdict
@@MyrandaBennettnearly was
I can only imagine being prosecuted in a small town where everybody knows each other.People are emotional and stick with who they know.Poor woman was treated like a outsider .
@@tinamartina1801ah silly you 😅
Interview the jurors that wanted to give her a guilty verdict after they find out that people who testified are being investigated by the FBI and that there was no SERT report done at the time of the incident. Let's see how stupid they feel.
Exactly. Our incarceration system is an injustice. We need professional juror system
"everybody in that bar should get a dui"
TELL IT MS MARIE!!
💯
That’s what I said a few days ago. She can be charged for driving under the influence IN WHICH CASE they ALL have to get a DUI
I can’t wait until those jurors find out that there is even a FEDERAL investigation against those shady cops!
yes ! and proctor needs to be investigated by fbi as well. State troopers supposedly moved him from his job.. just hiding him.
Corruption
BANANA REPUBLIC
I hope mr. O’Keefe does not is not lost in all of this
I agree 100%. He and the family are victims. But I cannot judge this with my feelings, only facts. I believe MSTrooper Proctor and his bosses messed this investigation up so bad that family will never know the truth. That ship has sailed. My heart breaks for them on that matter and for their loss.
He was lost the moment they thought it was sufficient to put blood evidence in solo cups and stop n shop bags.
He is just called the slain cop, referred to as her BF not the even using his name. No one cares about white men killed, especially cops.
The real victim JO has been totally forgotten in this shameful circus.
Whether or not as a jury member, you had a personal belief that she was guilty, you would have had to ignore such an alarming amount of reasonable doubt that, that in itself is a miscarriage of how the justice system is supposed to work 🤷🏻♀️
🤦🏻♂️
💯
The Jury made emotional decisions.They all live in the same town
@@santiedormehl3042And sometimes they can just feel a certain way, based on everything they've seen and heard, along the way. That includes facial expressions, gestures etc. Humans are that way.
Boston Police Department should be locked up
Nothing to do with BPD.
You mean Canton Police... But we get you..
Canton PD, not Boston.
Proctor Trooper is a Massachusetts State Trooper
Many Boston officers have said there is insufficient evidence for a conviction.
I'm sure there are officers there who should be locked up. In a department that size, there must be.
At least they had the decency to agree, she couldn't be guilty beyond doubt.
Stunned!!! Pathetic investigation & this case should not have been prosecuted
As someone from MA. I, came into this case with no prejudice against this case. From everything I saw/listened to the state clearly didn’t prove she did it. There’s A LOT of reasonable doubt. This is scary, this could happen to anyone.
Agree.
I'm an old, retired combat vet-turned criminal defense atty/State - Fed prosecutor/ magistrate/ Law School Prof (JD, SJD, PhD.) Criminal Law, Constitutional Law, Constitutional History.
Here's what I've been getting "sniffs" of... The FBI investigation began as a relatively limited exercise looking into local police/ prosecutorial misconduct.
NOW it's become a full-blown, major RICO investigation.
The group of people I've been half-seriously referring to as "The McAlbert Crime Family," or the "McAlbert Mafia," it seems, REALLY ARE!!
Often in RICO cases, a single event is the thread leading to a growing, interwoven web.
Also: in my experience, and I suspect here as well, at least ONE of the people involved, and who's "disposable" to the family/ lifelong friends circle and KNOWS he'll be their Fall Guy has ALREADY flipped and is now a cooperating witness, along with a few other local thugs they associate with.
I also suspect we'll start seeing federal arrests within the next few weeks. It'll be difficult to re-try this case if most of the prosecution witnesses (and other actors in this farce) are in Federal lockup.
Further, the prosecution's case -- IF they actually re- try this -- will weaken. The defense will be stronger.
In criminal law, it's usual for a DA to make a statement like was made today about a retrial. However, any way you slice it, this case will ALWAYS be corrupted. They'll stall, talk tough, etc., but then they'll quietly drop it a few months from now.
I agree it's difficult for some people to GRASP that the very people and institutions (the police, prosecutors, etc) they've respected and believed in are actually criminals. This is the "norm" turned upside-down.
N.B.: "I'm not done with you yet," or whatever he said, in this situation is a Terroristic Threat.
That’s fantastic! I hope you are right and John’s family can rest knowing who did this.
I enjoyed reading your input on this scandal. It makes sense. All of it. Thank you ✌🏼
Oh and that terrorist threat, that is serious.
@@harley6222Thank you. I do too; OUR Law Enforcement/ Judicial System -- nationwide -- is what's involved here. This cannot be allowed ANYWHERE in the United States, or in ANY free democracy.
Unfortunately, a Terroristic Threat (first offense) is a Misdemeanor in Massachusetts. Where I live, in THIS instance it'd be a Felony. But he shouldn't get away with it.
@@rebeccacampbell8020Let's hope so.
@@MLA56 you are welcome. Too bad it cannot be considered a felony in all states. Hope to hear more of your comments. ✌🏼🇨🇦
At least a few of the jurors had brains enough to see that this poor woman is innocent.
I’m guessing 11 of them… there can’t be more than one person stupid enough to believe the prosecutor.
She is not guilty! They have wasted so much time &money trying to corruptly convict an innocent person, and now his family will more than likely get no justice. I felt sorry for his family, but his family, particularly his brother, have taken my sympathy away....The way he treated Karen before during and after the trial is despicable! No sympathy for anyone but Karen Reid...Did people not see,hear, and experience the sane trial? I've never seen such corruption and terrible police work ever!
Were you there? Where's your proof?
@@jennawren1672 Did you not watch the trial?
100% agree with you. I hope Karen and her family get security!
Yeah right? How brainwashed are you? She absolutely is
@lovemysmoothie9632 I did and she is a hot head , verbally abusive and absolutely could have done it!
Family needs to be mad at the police for messing up this case.
How could ANYONE believe her to be guilty. It's disgraceful
from the horses mouth, she told the EMS personnel that she hit him....what more do you need? Maybe she was so drunk she couldn't answer the question correctly when asked?
@Unknown-account3 no she didn't she asked if she had hit him - plus he only said she had said that the 2nd time he was interviewed!!!! He never noted that originally. Not quite correct in what you are saying lol
@Unknown-account3 when asked what exactly? You just said she said she hit him. You don't make sense 😂
They asked her if she hit him or she told them that?
Plenty of people believe she is guilty look at the evidence against her. Even the jury did not acquit her. The police were completely unprofessional but that does not mean a frame up. She is culpable.
WASTE OF MONEY!!! NO EVIDENCE
You didn’t believe Trooper Paul’s pirouette/side swipe theory, or that John’s arm smashed the tail light?
They shouldn’t have tried her to begin with!!! The evidence of a car crash is NOT there!! NO Body on the lawn!!! No broken bones, no fractures! No bruises on the body! I like Marie!! She’s got it right!!
But yet she told her friend at 5AM that he was dead, called her father & knew exactly where to look for his body..not even mentioning her unhinged behavior & her saying numerous times that she hit him..
@@anitabee57I don’t bother. The criminals will always come out to defend criminals. She admitted she hit him.
Haven’t paid much attention to this trial. Cause she rubbed me the wrong way. So how did he die then? If there were no visible injuries????🧐🧐🧐🧐
@@Inbetweenthelinesnow
Head injury & hypothermia..
This is crazy to me. Way too much reasonable doubt should’ve been not guilty.
Retrial would be ridiculous! 10 weeks and so many witness testimonies and still couldn’t come up with a guilty verdict (I feel she is not guilty). Why do they think anything will be different? What a waste of money and time!
The corruption and incompetence of MSP and CPD as well as the shadiness of McAlbert&co has been on full display for this trial. Surely Lally doesn’t want to work with that again!😂
Justice is broken in this whole community. How anyone could find that the burden of guilt was met by the prosecution is beyond belief. It doesn't even matter that the lead investigator was a gross embarrassment to both his community and his profession, nor that the CW's own witnesses couldn't even prove the victim was actually hit by a vehicle (never mind by who). Take away the names, take away the genders, take away where any of the people come from... looking at just the evidence, no normal unbiased person could vote guilty. It makes me never want to step foot near that community, what if I got stopped for a traffic stop? I would be terrified of what the police might do to me... and then cover it up.
The prosecution has no facts.
This town has the dumbest police in the whole dang country. Yes the car data Is wrong , the ring camera missing minutes of recording is wrong , the video from the library missing 40min is also wrong , cell data are wrong , they show calls that were never made , google data is also wrong , they show searches that were never made .. OMG .. I thought cops were supposed to be smart .. how , what, when , don’t remember , I don’t recall , I don’t know .. they need to stop! It hurts.
All the prosecution proved is their own incompetence. This whole town of Canton needs a hard reset.
Not Guilty! 🩷💙🩷💙
Anyone thinking that these jurors do not feel safe enough to publicly share how they arrived at their decision?
100% think some jurors were scared to convict this jealous woman

I feel sorry for Mrs. O’Keefe. Actually sitting with her son’s killers on the day of closing arguments. I don’t know how those people sleep at night.
She sat and laughed at proctors messages about her when he was on the stand 👀 they don’t want justice they want Karen on a stick
@@gracethomson3193who sat and laughed?? Surely not Mrs O'Keefe?
She needs to open her eyes and see the truth. It was proven she didn't hit him.
@@gracethomson3193 It’s disgusting. She and her son Paul just want vengeance and they’ve got their sights on the wrong person. The McAlberts probably laugh every night after court.
I'm an outsider, but my take is John would have done a better job following protocol for investigating that crime than his peers did for him.
Just because people are pleased KR was not found guilty, it doesn’t mean they don’t feel for the O’Keefe family and their tragic loss. It just means the people who did cause the demise of John O’Keefe have not been held accountable and likely never will be unless one of them starts to speak the truth. Will be interesting what further info the FBI comes up with. The prosecutor would be crazy to try this case again. But in their favour they will be able to show the correct video of the car in the sallyport without having to admit it was shown in this trial purposely inverted and misleading.
You don't expect a corrupt jury!!! NEEDS TO BE MOVED OR DISMISSED
Exactly there is no way they will find a true unbiased jury..with all the media coverage..they will walk in on day one with their minds made up before hearing any new evidence if they can gather any
good luck finding 12 more people who haven't paid a shred of attention to this.
If Trump can be convicted and the jurors didn’t even have to agree then on what basis can’t the jurors be used? Trump’s case is/was known worldwide and there were really, actually big political consequences. Why should juror’s suddenly not know anything?
I think it’s time for the US to rethink jurors, it’s outdated and in this age it’s impossible to not be influenced by social media
Horrible investigation from the beginning
Should have been an acquittal, but I hope the prosecution decides to drop the charges. This woman was clearly not guilty.
Not happening..next time the ppl wont be allowed to crowd the court yard as it should be!
They will retry to avoid embarrassment. They shady af.
Does Lally really think he can get the same witness to have consistent lies next time?
One of, if not all of those kids...will eventually break and come clean. ..they will talk...and the truth will be revealed....hopefully sooner than later.....it might be years later when they are older with families of their own...but they will tell it all. Praise our heavenly father and thank you for your letting this day be in your favor. Your Grace is sufficient!!
The Okeefes should want the truth not a scapegoat
Sad part is the state don't care if she did or not they just want someone to pin it on. Going to be the same outcome every time unless they can actually prove she did it. Jury voted on there feelings cuz the defense definitely showed reasonable doubt.
Hmmmm…this Judge is known for this. She’s a disgrace
Oooh please all these ppl claim John as being their "friend" a friend that they killed...and refered him as "the guy".. tell the police "the guy" did not enter the house . And why didn't Brian Albert come out to comfort John when he was Dead in his front yard... These so called "friends" make me 🤢 sick...🤬🤜🏻 They are liars and murders
@123Flowers13 absolutely vile isn't it. Absolute liars and corruption at its worst
Exactly..
Can't comfort someone who is deceased, but I am surely not defending him at all for not coming out, which is bizarre. My guess is that he stayed away from the whole thing to avoid being "involved', due to maybe issues in the past. Yet he ended up being involved, as he had to testify. Time will tell. It's a doozie.
I wonder if Trooper Paul is going to brush up on his math and physics ? 🤔
He needs to learn first what is a brush.. then buy a brush.. its a long process..
They make it sound like only one person said, not guilty.. also, it’s obvious what we are told is complete BS
Can someone out there wager a guess as to what the "surpassed proof beyond a reasonable doubt" could actually be?? And if someone says, "I hit him," I'm going to scream. Literally no one wrote in a police report or grand jury testimoney that she stated that. Only questioned it.
NOOOO NOTHING!
LISTEN TO MARIE!!
GARBAGE IN GARAGE OUT!!
LOVE THIS!! ❤❤❤❤
The prosecution can’t change the facts of the case! The Defense has more ammo for a round 2
I also think they have more info but they didn't proceed because of how they read the jury. I think it was obvious there was no proof that she hit him and it should of been a Not Guilty. I say if they retry her. Let them! They will be bigger fools with a bigger fall because they will fail again. If there is any dignity left, you think they would try to hold onto it.
Plus, Is the FBI/DOJ gonna sit back and let this play out for how ever long a new trial takes? I believe more will come out regarding their investigation.
Oh do tell!
I didn't think 'morals' came into making a decision of innocence or guilt - Dont you have to decide on the evidence presented?
MORAL & PERSONAL CONVICTIONS SHOULD NOT 🚫 🚫 HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS, THIS IS ABOUT EVIDENCE!!!
Yes how the hell is that an argument in this context? White male cop is dead, guess the last one to see hi, has motive and actually confessed to people in the scene just CANT be guilty, it just misogynistic to even suspect her
It should have never gone to trial. I want to see prosecution against the corrupt law enforcement members, & the McCabe's & Albert's.
Her supporters are amazing. I can't believe they are going to bring this again. How stupid.
Prayers for the o’Keefe family that they find peace in their hearts. Whoever killed John, may you find it in your heart to ask for forgiveness and get over your pride.
So I’m way up here in Canada and had no idea who Karen Read was until I watched day one of the trial. I have watched every day of this. I knew just as much as any juror should know….nothing! The prosecution did not provide sufficient evidence for me to convict this woman, if I had been on that jury.
Did you know that she admitted to it?!
Do you know why the people in the house didn’t come out after the body was discovered?
@@rebeccacampbell8020 if cops discovered a body outside your house early in the morning while you were sleeping through a blizzard after drinking the whole night you would not wake up….why would you? If they killed John and planned the whole thing, and they’re awake, why WOULDN’T they go out? You know, like the other woman that was called up?
@@sowetoninja9398 the prosecution never provided any real evidence of a confession.
@@rebeccacampbell8020 I wasn’t there. I was up here in Canada! You should ask the common wealth this question.
Sorry to say to OJO’s Mother but these Police Officers, Party Goers and even the Judge, I don’t feel are on her quest for truth. They have been caught lying to save themselves. Karen it seems has been threatened by the family and is not safe in that town. They are both being used, it is so sad.
GOD BLESS ALL THESE JUSTICE SEEKERS...............THEY ARE SO SUPPORTIVE OF KAREN AND JOHN AND JOHN IS WATCHING FROM ABOVE.
Agree
Karen constantly cheated on him and eventually killed him, I see a lot of support for her, almost nothing for the John
This has so much reasonable doubt… way more than even OJ trial. Yet some jurors dont want to do their job and acquit bc of their “beliefs”… then dont take the job.
I love this woman Marie---what a true NY professional, speaker of her mind, strong woman. No kidding, the police made complete criminal fools of themselves in this case. They're toast no matter what. And yes, John O'Keefe's parents are the true suffering victims and always will be.
Why do they keep their heads in the sand? The Okeefs have CHOSEN to keep their eyes shut. How can they possibly align themselves with the Dirty Dirty Cops? Someday they may choose to listen to the voices of reason. Please stop sleeping with the enemy.
In my upinion it should have been not guilty,but at least it became a mistrial
That statement is a JOKE!
RIDICULOUS!!
He is a police officer and John deserves respect but LALLY won't get it for him!
Stare of Massachusetts is embarrassing!!
Why did Jen M search "how long to die of hypothermia " that night? 🤔
Why did the cops lie about the video being inverted? Why did the trooper reconstructionist not do the reconstruction or the calculations? Why did Proctor hide the evidence and why did the parts of the vehicle multiple suddenly out of nowhere when in his custody? Why did they lie about so many things?
That's says it all!!
@@looniluna corruption at its finest. It's disgusting
John must be fuming the fact that this Jen M is still around his niece & nephew.
@@harley6222Huh? Tell us this aspect of the story.🤷♀️
I couldn't understand why some felt it was a slam dunk not guilty verdict. I don't think any jury will agree on a verdict
Dog bites & scratches!!
Dog 'rehomed'.
That alone is enough reasonable doubt, and that's just ONE major thing in a long list of obvious shady stuff!!
Its unbelievable, and scary, that some jury members thought she was guilty without ANY doubt 😳😡
Thoroughly investigate that house and everyone in it before any talk of a retrial!
Do I think Karen is innocent? Not sure.. however, the prosecution did NOT prove their case. It should’ve been NOT guilty.
What scares me is that some of the jury thought she was guilty it’s common sense those injuries could not have come from a tail light it impossible I’m glad she didn’t get a guilty verdict but strongly felt it was not guilty for sure
Between Coffinfdouffus and KP, who are incredibly clueless, I'm done! That just shows you the level of integrity Court TV has. Unsubscriber!
I feel for Karen and her family. How long is this corrupt town going to hold this poor lady hostage. It's just so heartbreaking. FREE KAREN READ
I LOVE THAT LADY! MARIE!! ❤❤❤
SHOUT IT LOUDLY!! 🎉
Marie please tell LALLY!!
GO JOSH GO!!! 🎉🎉
"getting printed right now" ❤
This is so crazy, are these jurors stupid or do a few of them have connections to law enforcement?
Very sad for the O’Keefe family. My thoughts are with them.
the camera should not be allowed to linger on the victim’s mother crying and blowing her nose like that
Agree!! Holy crap crew…
Can they please Be mindful and respectful; regardless of the trial outcome, this poor woman has been through enough!!
ol’ Jenn Mccabe acting like she was one of John’s true friends.. 🙄 gtfoh
The jury breakdown as detailed in the Forepersons note was exactly “some” on one side and “others” on the opposite side. I hope the jurors talk to the new, news people, who are those covering this case with social media channels!
Those dog bites say it all. Dirty cops so glad i dont live there
"The Shady-ness was so shady!" I love it!!
