Karen Read’s Defense Just Made Her Look GUILTIER! — More Epic Defense Fails!

Karen Read’s Defense Just Made Her Look GUILTIER! — More Epic Defense Fails! In this jaw-dropping courtroom moment from the Karen Read murder trial, we break down how the defense tried to discredit forensic evidence—only to make Karen Read look even guiltier. On May 5, 2025, retired Canton Police Lieutenant Paul Gallagher took the stand and walked the jury through the snowy, high-stakes crime scene where Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe’s body was found. Gallagher’s testimony painted a clear picture: brutal weather, rapid snow accumulation, and a decision to act fast to preserve what evidence they could. That included uncovering blood beneath the snow using a leaf blower—a detail the defense hoped would sound ridiculous but actually came across as a practical, field-based solution. And when Gallagher testified that he used red Solo cups to collect frozen blood samples before they were lost in the storm, the defense pounced. They mocked the method, harped on the lack of traditional evidence bags, and grilled him about chain of custody. But here's the problem: none of it landed. Gallagher stayed cool, explained every move, and reminded the jury that not collecting the blood would’ve meant losing it forever. Even worse for Karen Read, the defense’s own questions reinforced that no other footprints, drag marks, or signs of struggle were found in the yard—just evidence pointing to someone being struck and left there. And while the defense spent time quibbling about Solo cups and grocery bags, they failed to present any evidence that the blood wasn’t John O’Keefe’s. In fact, their cross-examination may have done exactly what the prosecution wanted: highlight how much effort went into preserving the scene—and how little supports their client’s innocence.
