Karen Read murder case verdict reached after deadlocked first trial

One of the 12 jurors who acquitted Karen Read of murder charges in the death of her Boston police officer boyfriend John O’Keefe shared the jury’s decision-making process on Thursday, following the conclusion of her second trial.

The juror also explained brief confusion Wednesday afternoon that arose out of a verdict that jurors later retracted before it was read in court.

Judge Beverly Cannone sealed that one. Within minutes, jurors handed down a verdict for real.

“Everything on that initial slip was the same as the slip that was presented,” Juror No. 4, known only as “Jason,” stated on TMZ Live. He mentioned that they revisited the first slip concerning the OUI charge—operating under the influence of liquor—which was the charge they found her guilty of.

Noble and the department faced lawsuits from true crime reporters and some of Read’s advocates regarding the enforcement of a “buffer zone” around the Dedham courthouse, which their attorneys argued was unconstitutional.

Separately, local police in Canton, Massachusetts, were subjected to an external audit that recommended increased training and oversight while dispelling claims of a conspiracy to frame Read for O’Keefe’s death.

A federal investigation into the case ended without charges against members of either law enforcement agency.
