About this episode
Jessie and Andie recap Karen Read’s 2025 retrial, tracing the case from Officer John O’Keefe’s death to Read’s acquittal on homicide charges and lone conviction for OUI. The episode details key differences from the 2024 mistrial, the effect of intense media coverage, turning-point testimony, the jury’s decision, reactions from both families, and what civil and administrative battles still lie ahead.
