Karen Read is on trial for the alleged murder of her Boston police officer boyfriend, John O’Keefe. The jury has been deliberating for several days without reaching a verdict. On Friday, jurors informed the judge that they were deadlocked but continued deliberations in the afternoon and are set to resume on Monday. Legal experts note that delays and deadlocks are normal in such cases. The judge faces a challenging situation as the jury enters its second week of deliberations, having already spent 20 hours last week without reaching a unanimous decision. The jury must decide whether prosecutors have proven that Read drunkenly and angrily slammed into O’Keefe with her Lexus SUV and left him to die.
