Ep 16: Was Karen Read Blacked Out? GUILTY Verdict for ‘Doomsday Prophet’ Chad Daybell, Treadmill Dad Heads to Jury and More!

Welcome back to Courtroom Confidential with Joshua Ritter! This week, I share my insights on some of this week’s updates in the true crime world, including: 

- Boston police officer John O’Keefe’s niece and nephew testified to their uncle’s rocky relationship with murder suspect Karen Read, introducing potentially damaging evidence against her as trial concludes its fifth week.  

- In a shocking twist, ‘Treadmill Dad’ Christopher Gregor declines to testify in his own defense as his trial for the murder of his six-year-old son, Corey Micciolo comes to a close.

- 30 days after it began and over 70 witnesses later, an Idaho jury has decided the fate of ‘Doomsday Prophet’ Chad Daybell.

Plus, I briefly cover cases that also made headlines this week – including the latest in Idaho student murders suspect Bryan Kohberger’s case, former TikTok star Ali Abulaban found guilty of 1st-degree murder in the deaths of his wife and her friend, new accusations of sexual misconduct against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, and a judge’s decision to decline Alec Baldwin’s bid to dismiss his case – and what’s on the docket for next week.
