In the ongoing trial of Karen Read, accused of the death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, May 20, 2025, marked a pivotal day as the prosecution presented compelling digital forensic evidence. Digital forensics analyst Shanon Burgess testified, providing a detailed timeline that aligns the movements of Read's SUV with the final activity recorded on O'Keefe's phone.
Burgess explained that data extracted from Read's Lexus SUV indicated the vehicle shifted out of reverse between 12:32:04 a.m. and 12:32:12 a.m. on January 29, 2022. This timeframe closely matches the last known activity on O'Keefe's phone, which was manually locked at 12:32:09 a.m. The synchronization of these events suggests a critical moment that the prosecution argues points to Read's involvement in O'Keefe's death.
While the defense questioned Burgess's credentials and the methodology used in his analysis, the prosecution emphasized the significance of the aligned timestamps. Special prosecutor Hank Brennan highlighted that the correlation between the SUV's movements and the phone's last activity provides a coherent narrative supporting the charges against Read.
This testimony is part of the prosecution's broader effort to establish a timeline that implicates Read in the fatal incident. The alignment of digital data from both the vehicle and the victim's phone serves as a cornerstone in their case, aiming to provide jurors with a clear sequence of events leading to O'Keefe's death.
As the trial progresses, the court continues to examine the intricate details of the evidence presented. The prosecution's focus on digital forensics underscores the importance of technology in modern investigations and its role in uncovering the truth in complex cases.
