A jury is deliberating the fate of Karen Read. Prosecutors allege Karen Read drunkenly struck her boyfriend with her Lexus SUV and left him to die in the snow. Read’s defense contends there was no collision. They have cast her as the victim of a cover-up, alluding to a conspiracy by those who they say killed O’Keefe and framed the defendant, while painting the police investigation as biased and flawed. Read has pleaded not guilty to charges of second-degree murder, vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and leaving the scene of a collision resulting in death.
