In this episode of "Hidden Killers," Bob Motta discusses the complexities surrounding the trial of Karen Read, focusing on her state of intoxication during the incident. Motta explores the possibility that Read, who was heavily intoxicated, might have accidentally hit the victim without realizing it due to her blackout state. The discussion delves into accident reconstruction theories, questioning the physical and positional circumstances that led to the incident. Motta points out inconsistencies in witness testimonies regarding Read's statements and the physical evidence, or lack thereof, on the victim's body. He expresses skepticism about the severity of the injuries being consistent with being struck by a vehicle, highlighting the absence of visible bruising or expected physical trauma.

Main Points:

State of Intoxication: Karen Read was heavily intoxicated, possibly to the point of a blackout, making her unaware of her actions during the incident.
Accidental Impact: Motta suggests that Reed might have unintentionally hit the victim while reversing her vehicle in a state of agitation and drunkenness.
Witness Testimonies: There are conflicting reports from witnesses about what Reed said immediately following the incident, with some claiming she admitted to hitting the victim.
Physical Evidence: There is a lack of consistent physical evidence on the victim's body to conclusively indicate he was struck by a vehicle, such as the absence of expected bruising or other injuries.
Accident Reconstruction: The episode discusses various scenarios of how the victim could have ended up behind the vehicle, suggesting that simple explanations might be overlooked.
Internal Injuries: A new piece of information regarding the victim's distended midsection suggests possible internal injuries, which might align with being hit by a vehicle, yet external signs are lacking.
