KarenRead: Day 23 Recap - Key Witness Trooper Proctor Returns to Stand

Trooper Proctor Faces Cross-Examination in Karen Read Murder Trial

Key Witness Returns to the Stand

In a dramatic turn of events, key witness Trooper Michael Proctor returned to the stand on Day 23 of the Karen Read murder trial. Proctor is expected to face vigorous cross-examination by Read's defense attorney.

Read is accused of driving drunk and hitting her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, before leaving him to die in January 2022. The trial has been closely watched, with allegations of unprofessional conduct by the lead investigator, Trooper Proctor, adding an element of intrigue.

Judge Beverly Cannone is expected to make a ruling on a key piece of video evidence that could impact the outcome of the case. The trial is scheduled to resume tomorrow with further testimony from Proctor and other witnesses.
