Watch S1, EP133: More Red Flags with Fubo for $0 Today
An undetermined cause of death was an important element in Karen Read's defense. Her attorneys argued that if it's not clear that John O'Keefe was murdered, then that should raise enough reasonable doubt in the case against her. But according to Trooper Michael Proctor on the stand, that despite the undetermined classification, his team still handled the death as a murder. Challenging the credibility of investigators was key for Read's defense. More red flags meant more reasonable doubt.
