Karen Read, cleared after enduring two murder trials regarding the 2022 death of her former boyfriend, Boston cop John O’Keefe, expressed gratitude to a large turnout of supporters on Wednesday, shortly after the jury declared her not guilty of any homicide-related charges.

She will serve a year on probation for drunken driving.

Read’s father, William Read, praised her legal team for achieving the verdict — which saved her from a potential life sentence and extensive time in prison for numerous lesser charges.

“I want to acknowledge the greatest team of attorneys,” he announced to her cheering supporters outside the courthouse. “Our first hire was David Yannetti. We added Alan Jackson and Liza Little. Bob Alessi, you’re aware of him, all right. It was a fantastic team, but we needed each one to overcome this.”

“They will all be flooded with new clients,” Lu told Fox News Digital. “Brennan will be catapulted to stardom because anyone can see his talent. I would say Yannetti and Brennan’s practices go national.”

As for Read, prominent lawyer turned legal analyst Linda Kenney Baden expects her to file a slew of new lawsuits against the investigators who charged her.

“Especially a civil rights lawsuit against [Michael] Proctor,” she said, referring to the former homicide detective who lost his job over texts he sent about Read’s case.
