A month after a jury found Karen Read not guilty of the most serious charges against her, we and our experts recap what jurors and her lawyers have said about the trial, the newest in-court fallout over Michael Proctor and how the case could impact the race for Norfolk district attorney.

This is a bonus episode taken from "The Searches for Ana Walshe," our sister podcast available wherever you listen. Subscribe for all the updates in this ongoing case. The legal battle over critical digital evidence in the Ana Walshe murder case is intensifying as Brian Walshe's lawyers argue that police stepped out of line when obtaining the alleged Google searches about how to dispose of a body. Could the mistrust in Norfolk County law enforcement seen in the Karen Read trial help the Walshe defense team?

Karen Read defense attorneys David Yannetti and Robert Alessi joined us for a live conversation about the murder trial. Watch their extended interview here, covering the dramatic end to the trial, key moments along the way, Judge Beverly Cannone, how to explain complicated technical evidence, why they didn't call several key witnesses (Michael Proctor, Brian Albert and Brian Higgins) and much more.

What comes in the aftermath of Karen Read's criminal trial? In this episode of "Canton Confidential," we dive into the strategy that turned a murder charge into an OUI conviction, and what could still be to come in a civil case.

After an eight-week trial and days of deliberation, a jury acquitted Karen Read of the most serious charges against her in John O'Keefe's death — she was convicted only on an OUI charge, prompting a sudden cheer from the hundreds of Read's supporters outside. On this special edition of "Canton Confidential," our experts discuss how the defense created a "relatively soft landing spot" for the jury to convict only on an OUI charge, what part of the acquitted charges prosecutors weren't able to prove, what it was like in court, possible next steps for civil cases and for policing in Massachusetts, and much more. Plus, reaction from Read's family and supporters as well as how John O'Keefe's family is dealing with the verdict.

The jury sent in four questions about the charges against Karen Read Tuesday, and while they didn't deliver a verdict, there was plenty of drama in court — some of it starting to sound familiar to people who followed the first trial. Here's what Judge Cannone said to each question, and our experts' analysis. Plus, hear from Read's anxious supporters waiting outside the courthouse and our courtroom insider on the high tension inside court and how Read's lawyers and the Read and O'Keefe families reacted in the moment.

How long will it take for the Karen Read jury to deliver a verdict? Here's what other high-profile murder trials suggest. And with our legal analysts, we dig into the verdict slips — the loss and the victory that Judge Cannone gave the defense on changing the documents, and whether the slips could ever be made clearer. Plus, how Read's defense team is working to corral the crowd of her supporters outside of court.

Karen Read's fate is now in the hands of the jury, after eight weeks of testimony and dramatic closing arguments. Here's what happened in court Friday — a legal breakdown of the lawyers' arguments and how they went over in court. Plus, Ronald Estanislao, a juror from the first trial, gives his take on the now controversial jury slips and explains what it was like starting deliberations after a long trial: "we were all suddenly realizing the scope of what we were about to do."

The sides in the Karen Read murder trial have one last chance to persuade the jury, but before their closing arguments, we got a sneak peek during important preparations in court. The defense is taking a new strategy on its third-party culprit claims and made some new requests of the judge, while making a somewhat rare request for the jury to consider a lesser charge. The prosecution, meanwhile, insisted the defense experts conflicted. Our experts, including attorney and YouTube analyst Emily D. Baker, dig into how the well-known theories involving the case may or may not come up in closing arguments, what Judge Cannone said about the jury slips and how the final days in court set the stage for deliberations.

With Karen Read’s defense resting its case — and prosecution now saying it’s not calling a rebuttal witness — here’s what we’re expecting for the final stage of the trial beginning on Thursday and Friday. All that came after an intense day of testimony and cross-examination, with the prosecution at one point asking ARCCA biomechanist Andrew Rentschler if he had a theory about evidence being planted. Our experts discuss why the prosecution is choosing not to call a rebuttal witness, the procedural wrinkle in the defense resting its case, the combative final cross-examination and much more.

A forensic pathologist called by Karen Read's defense was insistent that the evidence shows her SUV didn't hit John O'Keefe — and while she was prohibited from saying his arm injury was caused by a dog bite, Judge Cannone did give the defense a partial victory on the subject. Then, the defense called what's believed to be their final witness, and the ARCCA biomechanist also testified that the evidence doesn't suggest O'Keefe was hit by a vehicle. Plus, a juror's surprise note for the judge, how the jury appears to be holding on with the end finally in sight and whether the defense will

"The commonwealth has no case, they have no collision. They are desperate," defense attorney Robert Alessi said in court as he moved for a mistrial for a second time in the Karen Read retrial. Our legal experts explain what happened in court, why Judge Beverly Cannone didn't declare a mistrial and what it might mean for the case. Plus, ARCCA crash reconstruction expert Daniel Wolfe showed video of his test on — did it help or hurt the defense? And who is in charge of maintaining decorum in the courtroom?

The prosecution fought tooth and nail to keep Karen Read's ARCCA witnesses from testifying, but the first of two took the stand Friday. Here's what he said — when the judge didn't sustain objections to the questioning — and what it was like in court. Plus, a former police chief reflects on the recent officer testimony in the trial, a former juror answers some key questions on how objections are seen from the jury box and much more.

Karen Read expects her defense to rest next Tuesday, "give or take." With the day off in court, our experts share what they make of her team's presentation so far, whether they've managed to convey reasonable doubt and what's becoming of their third-party culprit defense. Plus, we break down the proposed jury instructions and answer your questions on the meaning of a reasonable degree of certainty and if Read can be convicted on only some of the charges.

Karen Read's team called Canton snow plow driver Brian "Lucky" Loughran, who testified that he didn't see John O'Keefe's body outside the home in the hours before he was found there, though he says he did see something else that was odd. He was also asked, by the prosecution, about controversial blogger Aidan "Turtleboy" Kearney. Our chief legal analyst breaks down how effective Loughran's testimony was for the prosecution and defense. Plus, why there's no court on Thursday.

Big accusations were made in the Karen Read trial Tuesday — did they stick? Prosecutors' questioning of a dog bite expert led the defense to move for a mistrial, citing activity that was "abhorrent to a fair trial," but it was ultimately denied. Then, a Dighton police sergeant testifies that a piece of Read's now-broken taillight "was intact" when he saw it, soon before state police took custody of the vehicle. Our chief legal analyst explains the arguments behind the mistrial motion and the possible significance behind the taillight discrepancy. Plus, what's a missing witness instruction, and why is the defense asking for it in this case?

A former Canton police officer called by Karen Read's defense got into a heated exchange with one of the lawyers in court as he accused her of changing her testimony since speaking to federal investigators. We ask our experts what they thought of the exchanges, if she met the definition of a hostile witness and about Read's claim she's part of a "blue wall of silence." Plus, how the jury reacted to a dog bite expert from the first trial and, after childhood friend of Michael Proctor's takes the stand, our experts weigh in on whether the defense will — or should — call the disgraced former trooper at all.
