In this episode of the "Hidden Killers Podcast" with Tony Brueski, guest Eric Faddis, a former felony prosecutor and current defense attorney, discusses the upcoming trial of Karen Read. The conversation revolves around the complexities introduced by Read's defense team proposing an alternative suspect in the case, which has been allowed into trial by a judge.

The discussion also touches on the broader issues of law enforcement conduct and investigative oversight, such as ignored evidence from doorbell cameras and internal investigations into police misconduct.
