      First you need to believe, and then just ignore inconvenient facts. If I saw the scene I would be asking “I hit him?” because the scene as staged allows no other option. Her shock and disbelief allowed no other possibility. Until you look closer, with a clear head. The FBI says cars don’t bite- which was my conclusion-the only reason I even became interested. I have estimated thousands of wrecked vehicles including pedestrian hits. I cannot think of a part that would create deep, uneven scratches in the BACK undercarriage. All cars now have large under-shields to protect components and people. The marks could only be made by something contacting the skin repeatedly- they are not even in scale or depth and could not be made by something mechanical unless she backed over him numerous times at different angles. Impossible.

      I had the same thought and I actually had to listen a couple of times to the prosecutors opening statement. Don’t hold me to this but I think the commonwealth is saying the injuries on the Officer O’Keefes upper extremity was caused by a drinking glass.

    Maybe Karen Read did initially believe she killed him. Not in a malicious way like the prosecution is arguing, but accidentally as in being unaware that at some point in dropping him off she hit him with her car. Then her belief changed once the defense unearthed info suggesting a different incident being covered up such as the "Hos long to die in the snow" search, rehoming the dog, remodeling the house and the creepy behavior of the investigator, Proctor.

    • @enzoinfinity1
      @enzoinfinity1 12 дней назад

      Her belief didnt changed. Let me explain you why. She said in a national interview that she saw him walk inside the house and waited 10 minutes outside before leaving. You know what this mean right? That she could not have hit him when she dropped him off… The only remaining possibility is that she lied and she did hit him. Which mean the entire cover up theory is worthless.

    • @enzoinfinity1
      @enzoinfinity1 12 дней назад

      her entire theory rely on her seeing him enter the house. But her behavior on the following hours and her words nullify that possiblity. I dont know why the prosecution isnt hammering the case with that. The defense lawyer knows she did it hes smart so hes trying to hammer for hours the witness who heard her say she did it even tho they are telling the truth. But at some point you cant discredit the cops, the paramedics, firefighters, nurses, doctors…. But people are very gullible so who knows.

If they’re able to definitively figure out what caused those marks, the defense or state would have a solid case proving their case. But with the dog being known to be aggressive and getting rid of the dog right after is obviously suspect. Not to mention the renovations, and selling the house right after. Obviously helps the defense’s case.

After watching that expert & the training arms he showed with K9 bites from Germans shepherd’s, I’m 99.9% confident John O’Keefe’s arm lacerations are from a dog. It’s crazy how exact his wounds look like the examples the k9 expert showed! If you haven’t watched it, watch it. ESPECIALLY those of you are so confident Karen Reed is guilty. I’m not saying she’s innocent, but the wounds on John’s arm are definitely from dog bite.

She said in her tv interview that she called him Saint John as everyone liked him and no one had a bad word to say about him, I'm inclined to think she hit him with the car either accidentally or deliberately, because they were both drunk and arguing. She went home, began to sober up and remembered what had happened then panicked. Its the only thing that makes any sense.

    It's completely unnecessary to frame her or anyone in order to cover up something they did,
    so why do something that's unnecessary?
    They could've just said that they accidentally hit him with their own car...
    All the investigator had to do was put it down to an accidental death...they would be cleared and it would be case closed....
    Nothing reasonably explains just why they would frame someone else..
    and especially if they had all these people on their side willing to lie and cover up for them.
    Then it would have been much easier for everyone to just say... it was an accidental death.
    If the Alberts hurt him yet believed his injuries would still pass for an accident (and for her claim to be true this would have to be the case)...
    ..then why didn't they just say they accidentally caused his death and the injuries were a result of them accidentally hitting him?
    There is no need to involve or frame her in order to escape accountability, if they had such power as she claims then,
    if they said it was an accident, that's exactly what the investigatior would have went with it.
    It's not only more difficult to accomplish and control framing her than just saying accidental death but it brings unnecessary risks to them,
    which they didn't need to do in order to successfully pull off a cover up.
    The answer that requires the least assumptions is usually the correct one.

      A man was found deceased on Brian Albert's lawn, and NOBODY in his home at the time was ever investigated. The home was never SEARCHED. Trooper Proctor's text messages to friends revealed that the Alberts _wouldn't be investigated_ because Brian was "a Boston cop." The corruption has been *_displayed on a silver platter_*

    The prosecution is going to lose based on constant " what if any ( thing ) " most annoying line of questioning never mind being extremely boring/ unengaging. ( like one lady said , a class on how not to prosecute. ) unfortunate I believe evidence proves guilt.

    Saying " its my fault""🎉 I did this " could just be guilt feelings, not that she physically did it. I've blamed myself for bad things that happened even though I had zero to do with it. It could be a situation where she feels that if they weren't arguing he wouldn't have been at that place and would have been with her instead. Hence.... I did this. I have a gut feeling that she is innocent.

    Curious to me how Karen Read called Jennifer McCabe looking for John and she asked Jennifer to search for him with her maybe Karen was actually trying to frame the Albert's after she hit John. Very Curious and sus .

    The weridest thing to me is how they found the tail light pieces 12 hours after the incident when the snow melted. If it was there when it happened it would of been on top of the snow or indented into the snow. Seems very suspicious to me.

    For me it’s all about the motive, and I just don’t see it. Having survivor’s guilt (“I killed him!”) is pretty common. They appeared happy at the bar that night. He wasn’t beating her. They weren’t married. There was no insurance money or custody to be gained. Why would she kill him??

    She has got herself a very strategic lawyer, a natural prosecutor. Why not get an experienced defender ....... Because this trial needs a prosecutor, a prosecutor to set onto this case and it's witnesses and he's doing it rather well.

    Albert also ripped up his basement and got rid of their dog. Then, he sold the house. That was in the house for generations.
