About this episode
A dead officer, a girlfriend on trial, and a case that tore a town apart.
When John O'Keefe was found lifeless in the snow in January 2022, Karen Read said she dropped him off. Prosecutors said she left him to die.
As the high-stakes retrial begins, we recap the explosive first trial—tainted evidence, missing pieces, and a system under fire. Was it a drunken accident, a murder, or a cover-up buried beneath a blizzard of lies?
