Hank Brennan finally released a statement today in response to his devastating loss, in which Karen Read was acquitted on all charges related to killing John O’Keefe. One of the three substantive paragraphs is about the O’Keefe family and the case itself, and the other three are directly targeted to me:

This was done for one reason and one reason alone – to taint a potential jury pool in my trial. He wants it on the record that Karen Read was acquitted because I threatened witnesses (who he didn’t call), not because he is a failure.

Lets’ break this down piece by piece:

I am disappointed in the verdict and the fact that we could not achieve justice for John O’Keefe and his family.

An ethical prosecutor looking to calm everyone down would say he respects the jury’s verdict. Brennan never once says this in his statement. Instead he says he is “disappointed” in what 12 people, who gave up 3 months of their lives and spent 4 days carefully deliberating, ultimately decided. Ya got that? Those 12 people are at fault because they didn’t achieve “justice for John O’Keefe and his family.” They let him down. It had nothing to do with Brennan’s own professional failures, the problems with the investigation, or the undeniable fact that Karen Read could not have killed John O’Keefe. It’s the jury’s fault for disappointing him and the O’Keefe family. This is what his supporters would call a “dog whistle,” knowingly inciting the mob to continue to harass and intimidate jurors, who they will blame for Brennan’s failures.

District Attorney Michael Morrissey appointed me, giving me full discretion to independently assess the case and follow the evidence no matter where it led. After an independent and thorough review of all the evidence, I concluded that the evidence led to one person, and only one person. Neither the closed federal investigation nor my independent review led me to identify any other possible suspect or person responsible for the death of John O’Keefe.

The “closed federal investigation” determined that John O’Keefe wasn’t hit by a car because that’s what the ARCCA experts they hired told them. There were no other “possible suspects or persons responsible” because the police did nothing to investigate anyone else. Hank Brennan knows this.

The campaign of intimidation and abuse that has been waged, funded, and promoted in public and on social media is the antithesis of justice. If this type of conduct becomes commonplace, it will threaten the integrity of our judicial system, affecting both victims and criminally accused.

Funded? Brennan is accusing everyone who donated to Karen Read’s legal defense fund of paying for witness intimidation. This is an unhinged conspiracy theory that he is throwing out there to his mindless mob so that they will continue to attack jurors, Karen Read’s family, and her supporters.

Karen Read was acquitted without testimony from the vast majority of witnesses who claim to be intimidated by me. Karen Read was acquitted because 5-6 doctors gave testimony that John O’Keefe was not killed from a collision with a car. The witnesses who claim to be intimidated were not even called by Brennan because he knew the jury would not believe them.

We cannot condone witness abuse, causing participants to worry for their own safety or that of their families. It is my hope that with the verdict, the witnesses and their families will be left alone. The harassment of these innocent victims and family members is deplorable and should never happen again in a case in this Commonwealth.

Oh yes, the REAL victim here isn’t John O’Keefe or Karen Read. The real victims are Jennifer McCabe and Brian Albert. This is on brand for a sleazy defense attorney like Hank Brennan, who isn’t used to defend victims, he’s used to defending criminals.

My heartfelt condolences to the O’Keefe family and faith that over the coming years they will find peace and closure.

One sentence for John O’Keefe. That’s it. One sentence. That’s all John O’Keefe was to him. John’s family will never find peace or closure because Hank Brennan, the Norfolk County DA’s Office, and the corrupt Massachusetts State Police spent the last 3.5 years lying to them. They disrespected John in the worst possible way by not giving him the dignity of a proper investigation. They told them a fantasy story about Karen Read being responsible for John’s death so that they could protect the people who murdered John. They laughed at the O’Keefe’s behind their backs when they brought John’s killers to court with them. This is gaslighting at its finest.

Hank Brennan is a disgrace and this failure will follow him around for the rest of his miserable career and life. It is the ONLY thing he will be remembered for. He took over a million dollars from the taxpayers to try to lynch an innocent woman because Michael Morrissey thought his employee Adam Lally wasn’t good enough. But at the end of the day Lally convinced 8 or 9 people that John O’Keefe was hit by a car, and Hank Brennan convinced 0. That’s not my fault or Karen Read’s fault. That’s HIS fault. He was paid to do a job and failed completely. He was so humiliated that he didn’t even ask for a sentencing date on the OUI because he could never show his face in that courtroom again.

Justice won.

Karen Read won.

John O’Keefe won.

The good guys won.

Spanky and the forces of evil lost.

  1. If Hank Brennan plops his ass down on your toilet, you better get the plunger ready.

    He BEEFS.
    He’ll drop 5 or 6 forearm-sized logs in there with no flushes in between. Rumor has it that during the breaks he used to shit in the shower and heel it down the drain.

    2. I’m professor poopy pants and I did not take this dump.
      But I can vouch for Hunky Hanks Big Potatoes. Those turds are the biggest russet logs I have ever had pleasure of inspecting and cataloguing. Very low corn content. He eats lots of cheese. Risk of the roids but otherwise a fine healthy log.

  2. I cannot and will never understand how Morrissey can appoint a special “independent” prosecutor and his office remains in the case. Lally and Mcglaughlin at the table continue the conflict of interest that was the reason given by Morrissey to appoint Breenan initially. Fuck them all.

  6. Lying, corrupt, unethical piece of shit. The whole Lally convincing a bunch of jurors and hanky zero is telling. Imagine how fast the jury would have returned had douchebag Cannone not been running interference for hanky?

  8. He is obviously still working for Morrissey, doing damage control, and making sure to protect the McAlberts.
    The question is why go to such great lengths to protect all the idiots that were in the house that night
    It goes back to what people were saying years ago at the beginning of this mess. What does Brian Albert have on Morrissey?
    It must be something pretty big!

    Reply

    1. I wonder, too. Could it be something about his own “medically-induced” car accident, or could it have to do with his possible use of one of their apartments they stay in when working too late? Either way, it must be really good! Hahaha

    2. one thing we know for certain, Morrissey wasn’t invited to any of the swingers parties…

    3. Well, to be fair, Hanky is still under contract til June 30, 2025. He’s still trying to earn that $75k max as stated in his contract. He has 4 more days…

  9. All good but any chance of any real justice is slim. All the cops involved destroyed any solid direct physical evidence directly connecting them. The fed investigation wrapped up with no arrest despite being over 1000 pages long. The feds and the mass police are/were and always be in kahoots. How state police have pull in the federal system is beyond me but they do. The mass police basically ordered the FBI to go to florida and murder Ibragim Todeshev so they can cover up their fumbling of the Waltham murder case that if they investigate correctly would have stopped that boston marathon bombing. But I’m keeping the faith for real justice

  12. Keep up the strong, factual reporting!
    You speak Truth!!!

    Hank, the DA. and the corrupt public employees have to rely on emotional dog whistles because they have no facts. They speak with forked tongues and lies.

  13. Hank is such a LOSER!!! God forbid he admitted this trial was F#cked up from GO! The people like us with BRAINS know this! Hank was a hired gun and could literally care less about the outcome, he did this for CASH not JUSTICE. Please do not get these two confused. The abuse KR has suffered from the beginning of this debacle. I hope she can heal and finds peace. And I hope the trash that killed John and disposed of his body like trash suffer a worse fate….karma! The McAlberts are garbage and so are anyone that supports them. Prayers to John’s family that they can finally see they were bamboozled by the Commonwealth, MSP, McAlberts, etc….WHAT a real shame! Godbless KR and TB!

  14. I don’t think one single juror in this case is thinking ‘Oh, why didn’t we hear from Chris Albert?! His vital testimony could have changed my verdict.’ Or any of the others. Colon or whoever. I want Chris Albert to explain exactly how feeling ‘sad’ would have forced him to change his rather useless testimony in Read’s case? And which part/parts of this testimony he felt he would be compelled to changed based on his ‘feeling sad and scared.’?? Would it be the part where he lied about what time he left the bar? The lie about when he went to sleep? The lie about how long it took him to walk home? Or would he have changed the lie about when his son arrived home? Would he have testified about assaulting Turtleboy?
    Chris Albert! Which parts of your testify-lies, that you weren’t called to give, were you ‘too sad’ to give to the jury if called?

    1. You are spot on. the entire Albert family who testified during trial #1 are all liars, and that is why their stories never stay the same!

  17. The audacity of Hank Brennan to mention witness harassment when actual juror harassment is literally occurring as I type is unfathomable. I guess he isn’t concerned about that type of harassment bc that doesn’t make Turtle Boy look bad.

  19. Yes Hank Brennan still defends criminals and represents them. Whitey Bulger first, now fronting for his goon Weeks’ niece Jennifer Horseface McCabe and Brian Albert who went down to NYC with Brian Higgins for a fallen officer’s funeral who they didn’t know and came back to party like it’s 1999. Then big after hours party goes way south and they’re being protected. Hmmmmm looks like a racket to me. Hopefully the Birchmore case will expose them all and get the Feds to actually do something. Hank Brennan will always be a piece of shit.
