Proctor Trooper is a disgrace and a perfect example what is wrong with the MA State Police.

Oh please, her "behavior" is warranted after the litany of corruption in this police department trying to frame her. She's over it and can't fake a "poor me im so sad" face 24/7 for the family of John or the cameras. She's mourned John and moved on to fully fight for her life. She said in the docuseries herself that she's tired of having to "look a certain way" for people to believe her. She's fighting for her and John's justice now.

The original jury were deliberately left confused and misled as to the proper and concise filling in of the jury verdict paperwork. They found Karen Read not guilty unanimously on counts 1 and 3, it was the driving away from the scene of an accident they were split on. The whole process should have been made easier by Judge Cannone and her court administration team, they didn't. The jury were led to believe they had to be unanimous on all counts. The Judge was a part of the corruption in this trial, she called a mistrial when she should have polled the jury and asked an individual answer from each jury member how they voted on counts one and three. if she had then Karen Read would have been acquitted. Judge Beverley Cannone wanted a second trial for the prosecution.All she has done is waste millions of Mass. Taxpayers dollars, the prosecution have no hope in getting a conviction. The Mass CJC must investigate Judge Cannone for her bias and mishandling of the first trial.

I started following Karen’s case a few months after the first trial ended, and WOW!!! I see no evidence proving guilt beyond reasonable doubt! Between the prosecution and Judge Cannone, the CW is mishandling this case! Why not pursue the 3rd party culprit? #FreeKarenRead

I won't talk to anyone about the killing of John O'Keefe until they read the entire TB Daily News "Canton Coverup" series … corruption is deep.

👏🏻 thank you Ashleigh ! always the best 🎉

Karen Read was framed!!

@sherylrae April 2, 2025 - 3:34 pm

Did Canton pull his certification so he can’t just move and get hired somewhere else?

Free Karen Read, free Turtleboy ❤

Protor is gross

@wayne3340 April 2, 2025 - 3:34 pm

I don't find her likeable. Too much posing, smiling, laughing. But that's irrelevant. A broken taillight doesn't do to an arm what dog mites do. His smart watch went up and down the stairs. The other woman searching how long… The crooked cops and their tough guy buddies. Nope. I don't believe any of her accusers.

Geragos the genius who says Scott Peterson is innocent. 😂😂 A blind man with common sense can see Karen Read is GUILTY. RIP John O'Keefe 🙏💙

I am stunned by how factually incorrect this entire piece is. For one, when this aired, the First Circuit Court of Appeals again denied Karen Read’s appeal regarding the jury. There was NO evidence that the final deliberations led to 2 Not Guiltys. It was clearly and quickly dismissed and denied because it was immediately recognized as a publicity stunt. One that seems to have worked. Second, this is not a circumstantial “whodunit.” The defendant confessed to four witnesses, Karen Read’s broken taillight was embedded in JOKs shirt, his DNA was on her vehicle, and the techstream data showed she backed up and struck something at 24 mph, seconds after which, JOKs phone never moved again and the temperature of it continued to decline until he was found. She is not only guilty of killing JOK, she has worked with Aiden Kearney to terrorize witnesses and an entire town with her lies. I am incredibly disappointed in Ashley Banfield for not doing the research and instead, utilizing a surrogate of the defense while claiming objectivity. The O’keefe family and the victim deserve better.

@maryhutchinson5730 April 2, 2025 - 3:34 pm

She seems very guilty to me! The Defense always creates a scenario to cause "Reasonable Doubt." I don't believe anything she says.

I worry about this area, the last Jury was such a disgrace. They couldn't have listened and have No common sense.

@crystalweddington3688 April 2, 2025 - 3:34 pm

The judge asked the defense if they wanted to pole and they with the quickness no we are good because they liked mistrial better then guilty. They were stunned it was a not a quick not guilty.

MARK PROCTOR ANOTHER FERRERMIN BAD COP.

@MollyZelko2.0 April 2, 2025 - 3:34 pm

This case, Turtleboy’s, and Sandra Birchmore’s are corruption in your face.
I’d like to know where the USAO/DOJ whoever – where the heck are you?

@Michbeachlover April 2, 2025 - 3:34 pm

The appeal was denied. The case is going forward on April 1st, jury selection is happening. You all forget about John O'Keefe and that she is responsible.

@Michbeachlover April 2, 2025 - 3:34 pm

Attorney Garagos is wrong. It should be retried and she is guilty. The docu series did not help her at all. You have to watch the 1st trial, interviews, dateline, 20/20, news articles and Karen constantly is inconsistent. She was drunk and could not remember where she originally left John. John is the victim! The timeline, the evidence, the two people there, and heated day between the two people and add alcohol, it adds up. Karen clipped him, he came out of his sneaker and hat, fell to the frozen ground and was left to die. He succumbed to hypothermia and injuries. He could have been saved. Karen has been jealous and a true narcissist. The defense team has lied to the court, and continues to cover up the truth. Proctor was fired for misconduct not the investigation. The federal investigation did not turn up any additional suspects, or show Proctor did anything wrong other than his personal texts in the case. Jackson is a drama PR attorney.
