paste the article newfriend

>>1414217
Nah.

>>1414215 (OP)
So does this mean they're gonna investigate how her boyfriend ACTUALLY died then? Because if they're acknowledging she didn't do it, then the cop whose house she dropped him off at has a lot of fucking explaining to do.

>>1414219
No one knows because op won't paste the article text.

>>1414220
The article text does not contain that information.

>>1414222
The article reveals who the fuck Karen Read is and why she was on trial for murder. That's enough reason to paste the text of the article, besides the fact that every other thread not made by the faggot op does it.

>>1414223
If you don't know who she is then why would you care anyways?

>>1414224
How am I supposed to know if I care or not if op won't paste the text of the article like every other thread?

>>1414224
This board isn't for kneejerking over headlines like you seem to think.

>>1414225
You could read the article.

>>1414227
I guess this board is for whiny babies who can't click on links.

Clickfarmers get the rope.

*ftfy

>>1414230
Whether or not you click that link makes no difference in the world.

>>1414233
You should paste the article text so it makes even less of a difference.

>>1414234
I don't really feel like it.

>>1414235
The quality of posts is extremely important to this community. You low effort shitposting doesn't do anyone any favors.

>>1414236
I don't care. Report me if I broke a rule.

>>1414219
>Because if they're acknowledging she didn't do it
1. It was a jury verdict. The verdict was not (guilty beyond a reasonable doubt), not (not guilty) beyond a reasonable doubt.
2. The prosecutor isn't acknowledging she didn't do it and it would have been improper to proceed with the case if they thought she didn't
3. Prosecutors don't go after cops.

>>1414237
I and the rest of the people here will just openly chastize you for it instead until you get so sick of it you leave and go back to your containment board.

>>1414239
Nooooooooo, not the chatisement!!!!! Anything but that oh god noooooooo

>>1414240
If you don't care about news why are you even here? Oh that's right, to shitpost and kneejerk. You have to go back.

>>1414241
I don't care about news? You can't even click a link to a news article!

>>1414242
Non-sequitur. If you pasted the article text no one else would have to click on the news article.

>>1414243
If you clicked the link no one would have to paste the article text.

>>1414244
By not pasting the article text, everyone else has to click you damn clickfarming link. Every other thread on this board besides yours has no problem doing it.

>>1414245
If you really cared about news NOTHING could stop you from seeking out more of it, not even a link. Tsk tsk. You're not even a true newser. Go back, casual.

>>1414247
...says the poster who wants the board to become a giant circlejerk over a headline. No one else here is going to click the link. It's board culture not to.

>>1414218
Say, mentally handicapped Anon, if you can't post the text of the article, at least post a link that isn't behind a paywall. https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/karen-read-trial-verdict-jury-06-18-25

>>1414249
He's obviously a clickfarmer, probably the same chronic spammer from before.

>>1414249
Guess this board is for casuals. While you're sitting here getting spoonfed, I'm out in the trenches, clicking on links and gathering news. It's a dirty job, but someone's gotta do it.

>>1414252
You caught me. Vanity Fair sent me here in a desperate ploy to get <10 extra clicks for this article about a huge news story. But you guys were too smart for that, damn it.

>>1414215 (OP)
This is a miscarriage of justice.
Thanks for sharing, op

>>1414253
>>1414256
Ok clickfarmer

>>1414262
Please give me some clicks.... please?

>>1414264
I'm not surprised Vanity Fair is that desperate.

>>1414266
Bro I'm serious. If I don't get your click I could lose my job, man. I neeeeeed that click.

>>1414267
You probably aren't even the op, you're the troll who always complains about board culture not being the rules.

>>1414268
I have never posted on this board before lol. I'm just bored at work.

>>1414269
No one believes you except for the 'good post' spammer.

>>1414270
Believe it or not, it's the truth. I don't know who any of your board spammers are.

>>1414270
Bad post

>>1414250
How do you know it's behind a paywall (it's not) unless you... clicked on the link??? THIS GUY CLICKED ON THE FUCKING LINK!

>>1414276
Hurry up and paste the article text

>>1414277
I was going to earlier but I'm phoneposting and it was too much of a hassle trying to highlight the whole thing.

Karen Read thanked her legal team after being found not guilty of killing her boyfriend, John O’Keefe in 2022.

Outside the courthouse, speaking to a crowd of people dressed in pink and firing off pink confetti, Read thanked her supporters.

“I could not be standing here without these amazing supporters who have supported me and my team financially and more importantly emotionally for almost four years,” she said.

She also said, “No one has fought harder for justice for John O’Keefe than I have. Than I have, and my team.”

Read’s defense had maintained that she had been framed and off-duty law enforcement officers were responsible for O’Keefe’s death.

Karen Read was found not guilty on Wednesday of second-degree murder and manslaughter, charges stemming from the mysterious 2022 death of her Boston police officer boyfriend, John O’Keefe.

After 21 hours of deliberation, jurors found Read guilty of operating under the influence of liquor, a lesser charge that was added as an option on the verdict slip for the second trial. She was sentenced to one year of probation.

Read, a former equity analyst, was accused of backing her car into O’Keefe and leaving him to die on another officer’s lawn.

She and her lawyers Alan Jackson, David Yannetti, and Elizabeth Little have maintained that Read was framed by officers from multiple law enforcement agencies, including the Massachusetts State Police and the Boston Police. (Previously, representatives for both parties declined to comment on these allegations to Vanity Fair. All law enforcement officials who testified denied any wrongdoing.)

In an exclusive three-day interview with VF last summer, Read described every detail of her legal nightmare at length.

She accused MSP trooper Michael Proctor, who was the lead investigator on her case, of planting evidence—pieces of her broken taillight—at the crime scene to protect the homeowner, Boston police officer Brian Albert. (Proctor denied this during the first trial. Albert has denied involvement in O’Keefe’s death.) The MSP trooper was dishonorably discharged earlier this year for other misconduct on this case; his appeal is pending, according to his lawyer. Proctor and Albert did not testify during the second trial.


Karen Read Tells Her Story (Part 1): A Murder Trial in Massachusetts

>>1414318
The investigation into O’Keefe’s death was so aberrant that the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts opened its own probe into the handling of the case. (In March, special prosecutor Hank Brennan announced that the investigation had been closed, though the US Attorney’s Office did not publicly confirm or deny the existence of the probe.) During that investigation, federally hired accident-reconstruction experts determined O’Keefe’s injuries were not consistent with having been sustained in a vehicle strike and that the damage to Read’s SUV taillight was not consistent with having resulted from a pedestrian hit.

Despite these expert conclusions, and a first trial that ended in a hung jury last summer, Norfolk County district attorney Michael Morrissey prosecuted Read again. To do so, he hired Brennan, who previously defended Whitey Bulger, as a special prosecutor.

During the second trial, which began in April, the state’s own medical examiner testified that she did not find evidence on O’Keefe’s body that suggested he had been hit by a car; aside from abrasions on his arm, he had no significant injuries below his neck.

Multiple defense witnesses also testified that there was no evidence indicating that O’Keefe had been hit by a car. Speaking about Read’s SUV, forensic pathologist Dr. Elizabeth Laposata said bluntly, “It didn’t hit him.”

Read has spent her life savings, liquidated her retirement funds, sold her house, and relied on donations to afford three-plus years of trial costs. Her lawyers have deferred much of their fees.

Read’s legal team for her second trial also included Robert Alessi, Victoria George, and nine law students who acted as clerks—all of whom worked pro bono.

Read told VF, “I worry about finances immediately following the trial, but I’ll go back to work. I’ll get three jobs if I have to…. All I’m asking is for this to be done.”

Read still faces a wrongful death lawsuit filed against her and two bars where she and O’Keefe drank in the hours before his death

Interesting. Where did you first see the link? They might have a referral code in the URL which bypasses the paywall.

I typed in "karen read verdict" and clicked the first result that had the verdict in the title.

Why would you doubt something so inconsequential?

>>1414215 (OP)
Thanks for sharing op

>>1414219
no because it points towards a cop on cop murder. and the investigator is on record saying "nah he won't be investigated because he's a fellow cop" before the first trial in a text message to other cops

>>1414371
Who knew who Karen Read was before this story came out?
>>1414378
Desperate samefaggotry

>>1414418
Many people. That's why it's a news story.

I can't tell if Karen Read is guilty. But I'm absolutely sure Wendi Adelson is. What's taking so long? When are we going to see some justice for Dan Markel?
