Jurors in the Karen Read murder case took a field trip to the crime scene where she allegedly struck her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, with her SUV. The visit allowed jurors to see the location and the vehicle involved, enhancing their understanding of the incident which occurred during a snowstorm. Prosecutors and the defense provided contrasting narratives focusing on key elements of the scene. Additionally, testimony from medical professionals revealed Read's significantly elevated blood alcohol level, further complicating the case against her.
Prosecutors emphasized the relevance of the front yard's layout in relation to where John O'Keefe was found after allegedly being struck by Read's SUV.
Dr. Garrey Faller testified that Read's high blood alcohol level was recorded 12 hours after the incident, substantially above the legal driving limit.
