So it's a case that we could go on and on.

You and I could talk about this for a very long time, but there are other cases I do want to talk about.

So Aaron, stick with me here and you stick with this too, because we're going to jump into another case, another big story of the last year, the Karen Reed case in Boston.

And Aaron is going to help us navigate all the twists and turns in that story.

We'll be right back.

Hello, everybody.

We are back with a special edition of 2020 The After Show, and we're talking with Erin Katursky here, who is helping us break down a lot of these court cases that you have covered over the years with us, but specifically the last year or so, there have been some heavy hitters.

It's been a doozy.

And I'm curious too, you get a lot of last minute notice, something just happened, whether it's a verdict or whether there's just, you know, something in the Comey case that just happened recently and Letitia James and the courts just ruled and you are on at a moment's notice and you know that that's going to happen.

That's a lot of pressure.

What you've seen.

Well, the jury in the Karen Reid case, I think, surprised people in the very beginning.

And then the second time, not so much.

But this is a case that just captivated people.

A woman who was accused, a very attractive, young, professional woman in Boston accused of...

running down her police officer boyfriend after a party and they had all been drinking and she was accused because they were having a fight and probably breaking up deliberately, running him over with her car, leaving him in the snow to die.

Why were so many people caught up with the Karen Reid?

I remember when it broke and it was fascinating, but people were just, it was like cult status for people.

And people love these cases when there's doubt.

I mean, you'd think back to the OJ Simpson case and the glove, and if it doesn't fit, you must acquit.
