What Charges Are Being Brought Against Karen Read In Civil Suit?
Sep 06, 05:00 PM
In a recent episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott discusses the upcoming retrial and civil lawsuit against Karen Read, filed by the family of John O'Keefe. The wrongful death suit alleges that Karen Read, after heavy drinking at two bars, struck and killed O'Keefe with her SUV, leaving him outside in freezing conditions, resulting in his death from hypothermia and blunt force trauma. The lawsuit also claims Read and the bars' reckless behavior contributed to the tragedy and that she later fabricated a false narrative to cover up her actions. The O'Keefe family is not seeking a specific monetary amount, leaving it to the court to decide appropriate compensation for their loss. Scott comments on the community's polarized reaction and the aggressive behavior that followed, suggesting the civil suit is a means for the family to find justice and express their grief and anger. The discussion touches on the potential differences between civil and criminal proceedings, noting that while Read was not convicted in the criminal case, the civil suit might have a different outcome, similar to other high-profile cases.
