Killer Or Cover-Up Murder Trial
S1, EP146 "Reversing At High Speed"
Jurors learned the ranges of how fast Karen Read's SUV may have been going when prosecutors said it hit John O'Keefe. On the stand was Joseph Paul, a crash reconstructionist, who examined the defendant's car and performed road tests. Jurors listened intently to this expert's testimony. According to Trooper Paul's data, Karen Read's car moved forward slightly, shifted to reverse and accelerated more than 20 miles-per-hour into John O'Keefe.
S1, EP147 "Reconstructing The Deadly Car Crash"
The crash expert testifying for the State confirmed that he did road tests with a Lexus SUV which is the type of vehicle the defendant had. Prosecutors alleged that Karen read intentionally hit John O'Keefe with her car by making a three-point turn and reversing into him. Photos and video clips of the crash reconstruction were presented to the jury. On the stand was state Trooper Joseph Paul who put together that recreation of what he concluded happened to the victim.
S1, EP148 "A Pedestrian Strike"
The Defense had more questions during the cross-examination of the State's crash reconstruction expert. He just finished telling jurors that he recreated the alleged hit-and-run that prosecutors believed killed John O'Keefe. Prosecutors hoped Trooper Joseph Paul would convince jurors that the death of John O'Keefe was no accident. He claimed this was a collision between a pedestrian and a car.
S1, EP149 "Challenging The Crash Expert"
Trooper Joseph Paul tried made clear to jurors that the evidence he examined was consistent with a collision involving a pedestrian. He also said that neither the blizzard conditions nor a car malfunction contributed to what happened to John O'Keefe. The Defense heated things up during the cross-examination. According to Trooper Paul, even if the car's mirrors were blocked or its backup camera was defective- an attentive and reasonable driver would not have reversed at a high rate of speed.
