I'm Kristen Thorne, investigative reporter with Law & Crime and host of the podcast, Karen the Retrial. Join me as we return to Canton, Massachusetts and revisit what really happened that snowy night in January 2022.

She's accused of hitting her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, with her car and leaving him in a snowstorm to die. Karen Reed is arrested and charged with second-degree murder, manslaughter while operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol, and leaving the scene where personal injury or death occurred. The six-week trial resulted in anything but resolution.
