On the same day that Karen Read’s fans gathered at the Massachusetts State House to protest her pending retrial for allegedly murdering police officer boyfriend John O’Keefe in January of 2022, Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court Justice Elizabeth Dewar announced that her appeal would be ruled on by the full panel.
Read is appealing two of the three charges against her in the retrial, stating that while the jury did not return verdicts on the two counts, the jury’s internal polling was “unanimous” in finding her free of guilt of the charge of second-degree murder and a charge of leaving the scene of personal injury and death.
Judge Beverley Cannone had previously ruled against Read in her initial appeal of the charges, claiming that an internal jury vote during deliberations cannot be used as a verdict by Massachusetts law. Read’s lawyers differed with that view, stating that because the internal polling showed a “not guilty” vote, then going forward with the charges would amount to double jeopardy.
According to reporting by Boston’s WBZ News, Justice Dewar had the ability to dismiss the appeal or to pass the appeal on to the full panel. As she chose to pass the appeal on to the entire panel, the panel will allow the opportunity for both the Commonwealth and Read’s lawyers to argue their cases sometime before the scheduled January 27, 2025, start of her retrial.
As noted above, Read’s fans protested at the Massachusetts State House on Thursday, with “Turtleboy” Aidan Kearney participating among the 100 or so supporters who turned up for the event. Protestors displayed uncensored autopsy photos of victim O’Keefe as proof of their various theories on a vast conspiracy designed to frame Read of the murder of O’Keefe.
Angry members of the same contingent have posted in our own comments on previous Karen Read coverage, commenting that “Turtleboy” Kearney’s “protests” in front of witnesses’ houses in 2023 did not amount to witness intimidation and that the voice we use when reading the news sounds like a “cuck.”
We will continue to bring you news, critiques and cuck-a-doodle-doos from the rabid supporters of Karen Read in the future.

“protests” in front of witnesses’ houses in 2023 did not amount to witness intimidation
If just three people were to protest in front of any of their houses, talk to any of their kids or do any of the thing TB they would be crying so fast to the police, they would be waving guns around so fast, in short they would be so over reacting to it. But everyone else? Why they are cucks and cowards.
What a bunch of losers.
