The foreman of Karen Read’s second murder trial is urging the FBI to reopen the case in order to seek justice for John O’Keefe. He highlighted the need for a deeper investigation to fill the gaps in the story and identify those responsible for O’Keefe’s death in January 2022.
After Karen Read was acquitted of the most serious charges in her trial, the foreman expressed concerns about the unresolved aspects of the case. He emphasized the importance of continued scrutiny by federal investigators and criticized the initial investigation as lacking diligence.
The case, involving the death of O’Keefe, a Boston police officer, generated significant attention and controversy. Read, accused of causing O’Keefe’s death, alleged a police cover-up and maintained her innocence throughout the trial.
Following the recent verdict, multiple jury members have called for a renewed effort to uncover the truth behind O’Keefe’s death. The foreman emphasized the need to bring closure to the case and provide O’Keefe’s family with peace.
