Read, 45, has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder, manslaughter while operating under the influence, and leaving the scene of a crash resulting in death.

Advertisement Her lawyers say she was framed and that O'Keefe entered the property, owned at the time by a fellow Boston police officer, where he was fatally beaten and possibly mauled by a German Shepherd before his body was planted on the front lawn. Read's first trial ended in a hung jury and she remains free on bail, with throngs of supporters cheering her each day as she comes and goes from the Dedham courthouse with her legal team. She also faces a wrongful death lawsuit brought by O'Keefe's family in Plymouth Superior Court. Advertisement

Read, 45, has pleaded not guilty to second degree murder and two other counts for allegedly backing her SUV in a drunken rage into her boyfriend, Boston police Officer John O'Keefe, early on Jan. 29, 2022, after dropping him off outside a Fairview Road home in Canton following a night of bar hopping. Advertisement Her lawyers say she was framed and that O'Keefe entered the home, owned at the time by a fellow Boston cop, where he was fatally beaten and possibly mauled by a German Shepherd before his body was planted on the lawn. Read's first trial ended in a hung jury in July and she remains free on bail. The defense is currently presenting its case, and among their witnesses who've yet to testify are analysts from the Philadelphia crash reconstruction firm ARCCA, who said in the first trial that O'Keefe's injuries weren't consistent with a vehicle strike. A government expert testified at the retrial that his arm wounds were consistent with getting momentarily caught in a taillight during a sideswipe. Advertisement
