The Canton Police Department did not find a single piece of tail light when they searched the area around where John O’Keefe’s body was discovered. Three veteran officers, including a lieutenant and two sergeants, only found a broken cocktail glass and six blood samples in the less than 2 inches of snow that had accumulated by 6:30 AM.
Yet 12 hours later, after more than a foot of snow had fallen, the State Police SERT team located a black Nike sneaker (that would have stood out in white snow at 6:30 AM), two red plastic pieces of tail light, and a clear plastic piece of tail light ON TOP OF the snow.
Throughout the following week Michael Proctor and Canton Police Chief Ken Berkowitz (whose department had nothing to do with the case) found more pieces of plastic that Brian Albert himself missed despite living in the house. According to the defense’s recent motion to compel discovery and access evidence, there have been at least 35 pieces of tail light entered into evidence by the Commonwealth.
Last night on the Live Show I mistakingly said 47 pieces were entered into evidence, although there may be more pieces that the defense has already examined. But in this motion they asked to examine 35 pieces of tail light – all of which three veteran, higher ranked Canton police officers missed.
At the time of the initial CPD search Lucky Loughran testified that he had only plowed Fairview Road once, at 2:30, and that John O’Keefe’s body was not on the front lawn. John was also lying close to a fire hydrant, and Loughran would have made sure not to cover it in snow. The Commonwealth wants jurors to believe that 35 pieces of tail light light would’ve been hidden from three Canton police officers, only to be discovered 12 hours later, after more than a foot of snow had fallen, by the State Police.
Surveillance video from John O’Keefe and William Read’s house both show Karen’s right tail light barely broken at all.
The Commonwealth wants a jury to believe that there were at least 35 missing pieces of plastic from that vehicle sitting in the front yard of 34 Fairview Road while those images were taken. This would mean that their strategy would be to convince 12 people that Lt. Gallagher, Lt. Lank, and Sgt. Goode are blind and incompetent. Let’s see if they believe it.
Woof woof… (luminol the basement subfloor) woof woof!
35 pieces . . . did we put it in a blender? Is this in addition to the 2 red and 1 clear piece(s) found originally? Are they picking up glitter and calling it pieces of plastic tail light lens? How big are these pieces? So, the tail light just exploded? I have questions . . .
Maybe they’ll claim there was one piece for each of John’s dog inju…. I mean “automobile wounds” on his arm and body.
Look ive backed into things at 30 miles per hour. Couple broken peices. It takes a baseball bat swing at over 100mph to shatter plastic into 35 peices. Thats facts
Have done firewood for over 50 years, they don’t shatter. Why do I know ? Have plowed longer, never came back in the am to find anything on top of snow bank, never !
What about John O.’s Baseball hat that mysteriously surfaced a few days later? Where hell did that come from? Some Houdini type shit going on here!
The hat was found days later because that was buried under the snow like the tail light pieces… um, nevermind.
TB throwing the high heat!
Canton cops either incompetent or corrupt….or both.
MSP well we all know that they’ve mastered corruption.
Norfolk County DA – corrupt & inept
The walls are closing in…..
If I had a nickel for every piece of tail light that was found, I’d have zero nickels.
What are they talking about a red piece and black…..my jaw dropped when I seen this. There’s no way she would ever be found guilty you could be blind and know she’s innocent . These ppl are making themselves look like fools each day that passes. I would love to know what the Canton police excuse is for missing all that
There is no way, whatsoever, any of those injuries would be consistent with the headlight being the only thing damamged, a moron could figure that out.
Michael (watch out on Morrissey) Boulevard just released the facts the everyone know that lexus tail light fragments are designed to float to the top of the snow. They engineered them that way so cars dont get stuck up on Mt. Fuji.
