Summary
What really happened to cause the bizarre injuries at the center of the Karen Read case? As the trial looms, the debate over dog bites, expert witnesses, and baffling evidence continues to spiral. How does someone with no formal training suddenly become a self-proclaimed expert on canine wounds? And what about the pig DNA—seriously, pig DNA?
Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dig into the oddities surrounding this case, from coyote theories to gravel scrapes being mistaken for bite marks. Are we all overcomplicating this, or is the truth as elusive as it seems? When experts can't even agree on time stamps, how can a jury make sense of it all?
Is this a tale of competing narratives, or are we destined to never truly know the full story?
