Massachusetts DA shreds ‘conspiracy theories’ in Karen Read murder case over Boston cop boyfriend's death
Fox News
Norfolk County DA condemns "conspiracy theories" and witness "harassment" in the murder case charging Karen Read in Boston cop John O'Keefe's death.
"Innuendo is not evidence. False narrative are not evidence," Norfolk County District Attorney Michael Morrissey said. "We try people in the court and not on the Internet and for a reason. The Internet has no rules of evidence. The Internet has no punishment for perjury. And the Internet does not know all the facts. Conspiracy theories are not evidence."

Prosecutors accuse Read of backing her SUV into O'Keefe in the driveway of a home in Canton, Massachusetts, where she dropped him off after a night at bars in January 2022. But the woman's defense team insist her boyfriend was beaten and attacked by a dog at the home owned at the time by fellow Boston police officer, Brian Albert.
O'Keefe was found unresponsive in the snow the next morning amid freezing temperatures. The case has drawn national attention amid the defense’s claims of an alleged wide-ranging cover-up by party attendees and law enforcement said to have worked together to frame Read for O’Keefe’s death – allegations authorities staunchly deny.
