The United States. I'm Vindipollant.

The subject of my investigation is the death of Boston police officer John O'Keefe

and the murder trial for his alleged killer, Karen Reid. This case has a lot of witnesses,

but no one who saw the alleged murder. And that's why the expert witnesses may be the key to this

case. Here's the story. In the pre-dawn hours of a snowy January morning in 2022, the lifeless body of Boston police officer John O'Keefe was discovered face up in the front yard of 34 Fairview Road in Canton, Massachusetts.

A dedicated cop and beloved uncle, O'Keefe's sudden violent death sent shockwaves through the community.

His girlfriend, Karen Reid, a finance professor, was quickly cast from grieving partner to accused killer.

Prosecutors claimed she dropped him off at the home of a fellow officer after a night of drinking,

then struck him with her SUV while backing up and left him to die in the cold.

They point to Broken Tail, A Fragments, a cracked rear light on her vehicle,

and chilling voicemails she left that night.

But Reed's defense tells a very different, darker story of a brutal beating inside that house, a cover-up, and a law enforcement conspiracy to frame her.

As the courtroom drama unfolds, the battle for the truth continues and a community remains divided searching for answers buried beneath

the snow like i said off the top this case there are a lot of eyewitnesses especially when you

take when everything goes to 34 Fairview which is where john o'keef is is found. That night when he and Karen Reid pulled up in the SUV, a bunch of people saw a bunch of things,

but no one saw the alleged murder.

Take a listen to Jen McCabe, testifying about what she saw and what she did.
