KAREN: THE RETRIAL
In Season 1 of KAREN, we unpacked the explosive case of Karen Read, accused of killing her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, with her SUV. After the first trial ended in a hung jury, the high-stakes case returns to court in KAREN: THE RETRIAL. Investigative Reporter Kristin Thorne is embedded at the heart of the action, bringing exclusive interviews, expert analysis, and real-time reporting from inside the courtroom. The podcast explores power, perception, and who gets to write the story, asking whether Karen Read is a victim of malicious prosecution or if there is finally enough evidence to convict.
