On the Day 4 of the Karen Read reTrial, Jurors took a “field trip” to 34 Fairview Road - observing the Lexus, flagpole, fire hydrant, sightlines to the second-floor window, driveway and lawn - before returning for testimony. Dr. Garrey Faller (Good Samaritan Hospital pathologist) confirmed Karen Reed’s BAC of .093 at 9 a.m. on January 29, 2022, over the .08 DUI limit; on cross, defense probed differences between hospital serum tests and forensic whole-blood analysis, and raised Reed’s anemia/MS (no anomalies flagged). Paramedic Jason Becker recounted Reed’s last angry words to her husband and her suicidal statement in the ambulance; cross revealed he didn’t examine her voicemail. Court adjourned early; trial to span six weeks...

Day 6 of the Karen Read retrial focused on digital forensic expert Ian Whiffin’s testimony, revealing complexities in browser timestamp data and casting doubt on the infamous "hos long to die in the cold" search by Jennifer McCabe. The defense challenged data integrity and cell phone location accuracy, suggesting John O’Keefe's phone may have been inside the house. Battery temperature evidence also came under scrutiny.

Jennifer McCabe’s cross‑examination dominated day 8 of the Karen Read reTrial. Defense probed her “amnesia” over seven early‐morning calls, forgotten Google searches, and why she didn’t seek help from a cop neighbor. They highlighted her changing story about calling sister Nicole Albert and collusion in a family group chat - though the judge struck “collusion.” A slip by Judge Canone calling McCabe “Miss Reed” drew gasps. Redirect emphasized McCabe’s shock texts and voluntary cooperation. State toxicologist Hannah Knowles then testified: Reed’s 9 a.m. BAC was .093, extrapolated back to .14 - .28 at the time of the incident...
