Peggy O’Keefe, mother of deceased Boston police officer John O’Keefe, emotionally testified about discovering her son unresponsive in a snowbank. She recounted a conversation with Karen Read, the defendant accused of killing O'Keefe, where Read admitted to leaving him at a party. Prosecutors presented evidence suggesting Read struck O’Keefe with her car, while the defense claims others were responsible and alleges police misconduct. A key point of contention involves a documentary interview where Read recounted a conversation with O’Keefe that O’Keefe denies. The trial continues.
