Karen Read Trial Day 10 Recap - 52 Calls, 1 Dead Cop, More Karen Admissions
In today’s explosive courtroom testimony, jurors in the Karen Read murder trial were confronted with the one voice that might matter more than any other: Karen Read’s. On May 6, 2025, prosecutors played a series of voicemails and video clips recorded in the hours surrounding the death of Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe—and for the first time, the jury heard Karen Read describe, in her own words, the night everything fell apart.
This video dissects the 8 angry voicemails and 52 missed calls Karen Read made between midnight and 6 a.m.—including the final voicemail recorded live as O’Keefe’s body was discovered. You'll hear how prosecutors used her tone, language, and admissions to build a timeline of escalating rage and self-doubt. We’ll also examine the HBO interview clips played in court, where Read speculates she might have hit O’Keefe and recalls him taking her vodka soda—details that directly connect to physical evidence found at the scene.

But the evidence didn’t stop with her voice. We break down key testimony from Lt. Paul Gallagher and Lt. Kevin O’Hara, showing how early searches turned up nothing, only for taillight shards and O’Keefe’s shoe to be found 12 hours later under feet of snow. Add in dashcam footage showing Read’s Lexus with a broken taillight, and it becomes clear why this case hinges as much on weather, timing, and investigative gaps as it does on motive.

Finally, we cover Judge Beverly Cannone’s ruling to exclude the Sandra Birchmore case, denying the defense its broader narrative of institutional corruption—at least for now.

If you want a complete breakdown of the day prosecutors turned Karen Read’s own words against her, this is the video to watch.
