The retrial of Karen Read in Norfolk Superior Court continues as testimony unfolds regarding the fatal incident involving Officer John O'Keefe. Prosecutors accuse Read of intentionally hitting O'Keefe with her SUV while drunk. In contrast, her defense argues she was framed, citing a suspicious Google search related to survival in cold weather conducted by a relative of homeowner Brian Albert. Key testimony from digital forensics experts contradicts the defense's narrative, including the exact timing of the search that they claim points to a broader cover-up involving other party guests.
Hyde testified that the digital evidence indicated that Jennifer McCabe's Google search for 'how long to die in cold' occurred at 6:24 a.m., contradicting defense claims.
The defense argues that Read is framed in a cover-up designed to protect those attending the party where O'Keefe was found mortally wounded.
Prosecutors allege Read's actions were driven by drunken rage, holding her accountable for O'Keefe's death after he was struck by her SUV.
Digital forensics expert Jessica Hyde supported the timeline of events, stating critical data invalidates defense claims regarding the timing of McCabe's search.
