Jennifer Coffindaffer Breaks Down the 74% Reverse: Was It Intentional?

Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer weighs in on the most damning data point yet: Karen Read’s SUV reversed at 74% throttle, reaching a dangerous 23.9 mph outside the home where John O’Keefe was found dead. Was this a mistake—or something far more intentional? In this episode, we break down the forensic evidence, driver behavior, and what this type of high-speed reverse indicates in the eyes of a seasoned federal investigator.
