​On the third day of Karen Read’s retrial, the prosecution presented testimony and evidence focusing on the events leading up to the death of Boston police officer John O’Keefe. Massachusetts State Police Trooper Nicholas Guarino read aloud text messages exchanged between Read and O’Keefe on January 28, 2022, revealing tensions in their relationship. In one message, O’Keefe expressed frustration, stating he was “sick of always arguing and fighting,” while Read questioned his commitment to their relationship. These messages were introduced to suggest potential motive and emotional context surrounding the incident. Additionally, the court viewed a clip from a documentary in which Read discussed her alcohol consumption on the night of O’Keefe’s death, admitting she “shouldn’t have been driving” but denying reckless behavior. The prosecution also called Michael Camerano, a friend of O’Keefe, who testified that Read and O’Keefe appeared affectionate at a bar hours before his death, though he noted Read's jealousy regarding other women around O’Keefe. The day’s proceedings concluded earlier than expected due to scheduling confusion among the prosecution's witnesses. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/04/24/us-news/karen-reads-sweeping-text-fight-with-boyfriend-hours-before-his-death-read-to-stunned-jury-youve-really-hurt-me-this-time/" target="_blank">Karen Read’s sweeping text fight with boyfriend hours before his death read to stunned jury: ‘You’ve really hurt me this time’</a>
