On Day 11 of Karen Read’s murder retrial, the courtroom focused on digital forensic evidence, particularly the timing of a controversial Google search made by Jennifer McCabe, a key prosecution witness and former friend of Read. Digital forensics expert Jessica Hyde testified that the search query, “hos long to die in cold,” was conducted at approximately 6:24 a.m. on January 29, 2022. This timing aligns with the prosecution's timeline, suggesting the search occurred after John O'Keefe's body was discovered. Hyde clarified that earlier timestamps on McCabe's phone, such as 2:27 a.m., indicated when a browser tab was opened or moved to the background, not when the search was executed. The defense had previously argued that the search occurred earlier, implying foreknowledge of O'Keefe's death. Additionally, Massachusetts State Trooper Connor Keefe testified about evidence collected from the scene, including red plastic shards believed to be from Read's SUV taillight and a black Nike sneaker. Keefe's testimony aimed to support the prosecution's claim that Read struck O'Keefe with her vehicle. The defense questioned the integrity of the evidence collection process, noting inconsistencies such as the late discovery of taillight fragments and the lack of a thorough search of the house where O'Keefe was found. The day's proceedings highlighted the ongoing debate over digital evidence interpretation and the handling of physical evidence at the crime scene. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/watch-live-karen-read-trial-day-11/" target="_blank">Forensic expert Jessica Hyde testifies at Karen Read trial about Jennifer McCabe's disputed Google search - CBS Boston</a> Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support?utm_source=rss&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support</a>.
