What to know about the Karen Read murder trial
Witness testimony continues Tuesday in the murder trial of Karen Read, a woman accused in the death of her Boston police officer boyfriend. Read's defense team argues she is the victim of an elaborate cover-up and is being framed by a group of people that includes law enforcement while prosecutors claim she hit officer John O'Keefe with her vehicle during a snowstorm in 2022.
