• 0:00
  Speaker 1: And now a morsel of murder with Gina Barberry radio
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: from Hell on X ninety six.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Before you get to the main morsel of murder. Okay,
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: answer me this murder question. That guy who they were
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: looking for who apparently killed his three daughters, still haven't found,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: still on the lane, now still on the run. Found him,
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: and my guess is he's dead.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Quite possibly the murdered.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: ESK will follow that for you, all right, I'll let
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: you know if we do you learn anything about that.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: But the most recent trial of the century has been
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: the Karen Reid murder trial in Massachusetts. Jury Massachusetts acquitted
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Karen Reid of murder and manslaughter charges on Wednesday, ending
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: illegal saga that's gripped the Boston area since the death
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: of Miss Reid's boyfriend John O'Keefe, a Boston police officer,
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: in January twenty twenty two.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: It's been going on for a while.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Prosecutors had accused me, Miss Reid, forty five, I'm intentionally
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: hitting Officer O'Keefe with her SUV after an argument and
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: then leaving him to die in a blizzard.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Miss Reid tearfully.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: Embraced her attorneys after the verdict was read in the courtroom,
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: and cheers of hundreds of her supporters erupted outside the courthouse.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: A jury of.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Seven women and five men began deliberating last Friday. Sent
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: several messages to the judge, like, you know, because she
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: had a hung jury last time. This is the second
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: time they've tried her for this. They had lots of questions.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: They ended up only coming back to drunk driving. They
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: convicted her of drunk driving.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: They said that there was not enough evidence to indicate
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: that she'd intentionally run over her boyfriend. So how did
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: the story go? He went in something about he went
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: into a house.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: Well, so they were out drinking at a bar with
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: a bunch of friends, and at some point it was like,
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: we're going to move the party back to and these
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: are all police officers and their their wives and girlfriends,
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: and we're going to move the party to somebody's house.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: So they've already all been drinking before they go. As
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: they're approaching the house that they're arguing in the.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Car just of them, the two of them.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: And there are different stories, obviously for the defense and
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: the prosecution, about what happened next. She says she pulled
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: up to the house, and it was a house she
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: hadn't been to before, and she wasn't sure if they
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: should go in or if they should just go home.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: And she said, I told him to just go up
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: and check and make sure it's okay if we come
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: into the party. And she says he got out of
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: the car and she waited and waited and waited, and
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: he never came back, and.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: So she left. Okay, that's her story.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: So his body was discovered outside the house, yes, in
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: the snow, Yes, and he'd been run over.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Well, that's that's it a matter of debate that there
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: were corners that said he'd been run over, and there
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: are corners that said he could have been attacked by
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: a dog, which you would think they do things would
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: be would be easy to prove, right. The prosecution said
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: that the defense was claiming that he went into the
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: house and a dog attacked him and killed him, and
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: there was a fight and they dragged see this is
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: way more implausible to me, and dragged his body outside
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: to let him die in the snow.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: So the police did this, his fellow officers, right, and
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: in the house because of the dog.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Isn't it more plausible that she meant, whether on purpose
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: or on accident, was mad at him and peeled away
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: in the car.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: She was drunk.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, Yes, So that presumably they
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: called to the stand people who were in the house
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: at the party. Yes, and they all said what.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: They all said. He never came in the house. We
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: never saw him.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: He never came in.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: But there were a bunch of things. So here's my theory.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: My theory is how he died was they were arguing,
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: he got out of the car, and she got mad
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: and drove away, and somehow when she was driving away,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: she accidentally hit him and he died in the snow.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: That's what I think happened.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: I think when the people inside the house who are
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: police officers, figured this out, they have other shady stuff
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: going on that they didn't want people.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: To find out about.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: They're like, oh, my god, this guy died in our yard.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: They're going to start looking into X y Z. Like
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: one of the cops at the house threw away his phone.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Oh that's like, that doesn't mean they killed him. I
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: think that means they're hiding. They're hiding something. They also
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: sort of.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Ginned up a little extra evidence against her, like were like,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: we really have to make sure she she gets blamed
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: for this, so they don't look at us. And plus
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: you have fellow police officers investigating fellow police officers.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: So it's not as thorough.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: So your theory, your theory, though, is is that they
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: that they wanted to cast blame on her.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: They wanted to make sure she was blamed for.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: It, and and they were not successful at that. No,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: she was acquitted. So the jury said, no, we're not
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: buying it. We are not buying it.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: The prosecution had evidence that her defense attorneys were like
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: superstar defense attorneys, like like very well known, expensive.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: And really good dressers.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: I mean they were, they were slick. They were. Now
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: the prosecution had.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: And I thought this was really good evidence. They had
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: evidence from his phone that could tell the temperature of
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: where the phone was, could tell at what time it
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: was inside the car where it was warm because there
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: was a blizzard going on, and then outside in the cold,
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: and then that.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: It didn't move.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: There was a two minute time frame between the time
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: he got out of the car and then the phone
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: didn't move. That tells me got out of the car,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: she put the car in reverse and hit him.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Whether on purpose or accident. I'm willing to give her that.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: And maybe she didn't even know.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, she was drunk and he fell down and
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: hit his head. There, I thought that phone, so here's
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: what it says.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: You know what the problem with that was? Though it
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: wasn't one of those Trump mobile phones.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: Here's here's the official word. Prosecution experts testified that officer
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: O'Keefe's phone did not record any movement after twelve thirty
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: two am that night, and the phone's temperature steadily dropped
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: over the next several hours. Prosecutors used that evidence to
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: rebut the defenses claims that he was attacked by people
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: at the party. He was not at the party. He
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: would have had his phone with him inside the house
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: and it would have been moving around. I thought that
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: was a great piece of evidence, but but somehow she's
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: she got The only thing they could prove was that
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: she was drunk driving. Now, I don't think she purposely
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: did it.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think she purposely. I don't.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: You don't think she's going to go around murdering people
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: with her car, No.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: And everyone involved in this is a horrible person.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: She's a horrible person. All of the people at the
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: house are horrible people. There's a whole documentary about this
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: on Netflix.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Why does she have so many supporters outside the courthouse.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: I think they're.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: People that don't like the police department in Boston. And
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of shady stuff with that. One of
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: the one of the investigating officers, was writing horrible stuff
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: about her and text messages calling her the steward and
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: and and you know, yeah, well but I don't think
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: that means that she didn't accidentally run him over.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: So what's next for Karen Reid?
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Oh, she'll she'll probably have I don't know. She likes
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: the attention too, I don't know.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Oh the other thing, Yeah, I forgot about this of
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: there was a glass so when they let and there's
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: a video of this at the bar, he has a
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: glass mixed drink in his hand that he takes in
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: the car with him.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because because cops definitely are above that.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: The glass was found broken on the ground in front
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: of the house. Now, if he got out of the
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: car to go walk up to the house to go
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: into the party, wouldn't he have taken the glass inside?
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Who knows? Maybe?
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe not. I don't know, but she's she's free.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: And clear, free and clear, and they can't try anyone else.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: They got our long national Nightmares Zone.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: It's been a huge deal in Boston, is that it? Uh? Yes, Okay,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: thank you for that. Okay, we have boners on the way.
