Summary
Karen Read's motion for expert expenses was denied because the Commonwealth had expressed concerns that the original video footage might not exist. It was revealed that a now retired detective had downloaded selected videos from that day and saved them on a hard drive and possibly a iCloud account.
These videos had not been turned over to the defense before the first trial. The Commonwealth has turned over voluminous new discovery to the defense ahead of the second trial, including new experts, expert reports, and full files.
The retrial is expected to be a completely different case, with a new accident reconstructionist and a new accident reconstruction process.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome back. It's time for a quick bit clip. The full episode will be linked in the description, |
| 0:05.7 | but this is the quick bit clip to keep you in the loop for everything that's happening on the |
| 0:11.1 | live stream channel. Let's get into it. Let's do a quick TLDR. So I broke down the defense |
| 0:17.9 | motion. I did not break down the Commonwealth's response to the motion. |
| 0:23.0 | We'll hear the Commonwealth's response today. The Commonwealth is going to say, |
| 0:26.8 | not on us. So some form of not on us in writing is what you're going to get from the Commonwealth's |
| 0:32.7 | response. The defense motion today is regarding their expert fees. Remember, the court was holding aside |
| 0:40.6 | today for a hearing if an evidentiary hearing needed to happen for the tech expert. The court |
| 0:47.1 | said, I'll decide this matter without a hearing. I broke that down on Tuesday's episode of the |

| 0:54.8 | So the Commonwealth is going to say some version of this isn't on us. |
| 0:58.8 | The defense is saying, look, we flew our expert out to Canton. |
| 1:02.3 | We did it at our expense. |
| 1:03.9 | We were led to believe that this information existed in its original state on the DVR at |
| 1:10.1 | Canton PD. |
| 1:11.6 | And the defense wanted to download it. |
| 1:13.5 | The defense says, we keep getting bits and pieces of video. |
| 1:20.8 | So at some point, you saved video and you're just like dripping out all these little pieces of video. |
| 1:28.1 | We should have access to all of the video. |
| 1:30.3 | It should have been preserved. |
| 1:31.7 | It should have been turned over. |
