Judge Considering Issues In Read Re-Trial

No decision will be made today regarding a potential dismissal of charges against Karen Read in Massachusetts.

The judge said she will issue a ruling at a later date.

Read is accused of killing her Boston cop boyfriend John O'Keefe with her SUV and leaving him to die in a snowstorm in 2022.

A mistrial was declared about five weeks ago, and her lawyers asked the judge today to dismiss the charges.

They claim jurors were unanimous to acquit her of murder, but were hung on the manslaughter charge.

Large crowds both pro and anti-Karen Read showed up outside the courthouse before the hearing.
