Karen Read, prosecutors ask to delay murder retrial by three months as evidence re-tested
Lawyers on both sides of Karen Read’s case have asked for her new trial to be delayed by three months, as prosecutors said they want to re-test evidence and prepare to call new witnesses. Read, 44, is scheduled to face trial a second time in the case accusing her of drunkenly backing her SUV over her Boston cop boyfriend John O’Keefe in January 2022 and leaving him to die in the snow.
