Blayne Alexander sits down with Andrea Canning to talk about her latest episode, “Center of the Storm.” The 2024 trial of Karen Read garnered national attention as she fought allegations that in 2022, she drunkenly backed her SUV into her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O’Keefe, and left him to die in the snow. After the jury was unable to reach a verdict, the judge declared a mistrial.
This year, Read went back on trial and a new jury did deliver a verdict. Andrea tells Blayne what it was like at the courthouse when the verdict was read. She also discusses her interview with Michael Proctor, the former state trooper who the defense accused of having framed Read as part of a coverup. Plus, Andrea shares two podcast-exclusive clips: the first from her interview with Proctor, and the second from her interview with one of John O’Keefe’s family members after the verdict.
