Karen Read will not take the witness stand in the second trial about the death of her Boston police officer boyfriend as the defense has rested.
Karen Read's defense concluded with expert witness Dr. Andrew Rentschler testifying that Boston cop John O'Keefe's injuries were inconsistent with being struck by Read's SUV.
“I don’t believe that’s consistent with the evidence and what occurred,” Rentschler replied. Rentschler was the final defense witness, just as he was during Read’s first trial last summer. After he left the stand, Jackson announced Read’s defense would rest its case subject to a final ruling on evidence.
