Karen Read’s defense team intends on calling up to 77 witnesses on their list.

VanEe.Chris2011

Some of these names are surprising, while other are to people who have been following this case very closely, so I wanted to over who some of them are and what their expected testimony may be.

Laurie Cahill. 

Laurie was working at Gillette Stadium for the Army-Navy game in December when Michael Proctor allegedly told her that Karen Read was “100% guilty,” said “you don’t know who I am,” and told her that he knew things that she didn’t before predicting that the woman would be made a fool of in a few months.

 

Michael Wagner and Sheryl Waugh.

Wagner and Waugh were Canton residents who were married until filing for divorce in January, 2022. Wagner now lives in Foxborough while Sheryl appears to have married a woman in 2023 and now lives in Canton right near Chris Albert. Sources tell me that Waugh was brutally attacked by Chloe prior to John O’Keefe’s murder, and had to go to the ER. The defense was able to obtain this information after filing a motion to obtain Canton Animal Control records, which the Commonwealth for some reason opposed. Attorney Greg Henning, who represents Brian Albert’s family, stated in open court that the dog had no history of attacking human beings.

Either Henning lied or his client lied to him. Likely the latter. It goes to the credibility of the Commonwealth’s witnesses that they were caught in so many lies. It also shows that Chloe had a history of biting human beings, which is relevant since John O’Keefe was found with dog bites on his arm.

Richard D’Antuono and Heather Maxon.

Maxon is Ryan Nagel’s ex-girlfriend, and D’Antuono is his friend. D’Antuono was driving the truck where Maxon and Nagel were passengers, and idled his truck directly behind Karen Read’s Lexus outside of 34 Fairview Road. If either of these witnesses testifies that they saw John O’Keefe go inside the house it will be game over. Sources say their testimony is almost identical to Nagel’s – they saw Karen Read alone inside her car with the interior lights on, O’Keefe was nowhere to be seen, and her tail light was not damaged. The Commonwealth has also put both of them on their witness list.

BPD Officer Kelly Dever.

Officer Dever was working as a Canton Police Officer on January 29, 2022. There is radio transmission, purportedly from the morning John O’Keefe’s body was discovered, of Lt. Paul Gallagher calling her and saying that an unnamed Canton PD Lieutenant wanted to see what address on Fairview Road the first responders had arrived. She told him 32 Fairview Road.

The defense also claims they have a source from within CPD who will testify that they saw Chief Berkowitz and Brian Higgins alone with Karen Read’s vehicle inside the CPD garage.

Patrick Haggerty.

Haggerty tows cars for Diamond Towin, which brought Karen Read’s vehicle from her parent’s house in Dighton to the Canton Police Department. Audio recording has him stating that her tail light was not shattered, as Michael Proctor claimed it was in his report.

Steven Ridge and Heriberto Hernandez.

These two seasoned BPD officers worked on the fugitive unit with Brian Albert. Albert does not have many friends or supporters in BPD, and sources we spoke with tell us that he assaulted a fellow officer named Heriberto “Eddie” Hernandez at a Christmas party. They could testify to Albert’s violent tendencies, which can be used as a way to introduce the third party culprit theory. Ridge was picture in this photo with Brian Albert in the Herald.

Marc and Alfredo Lopilato

In 2002 Chris Albert was listed in a lawsuit filed by Marc Lopilato against Canton Police Officer Michael Lank, who he alleged had bitten, wrongly charged, and targeted him. Chris Albert approached Lank outside of a bar called Centerfields and told Lank that he had just gotten into a fight at the bar with Lopilato. Lank then got into a fight with Lopilato and his brother Alfredo and allegedly bit one of them before detaining him, despite being off duty, and telling him he was going to ruin his life. When the Lopilato brothers tried to file a complaint they were charged with A&B on a police officer, put on trial, and acquitted. They endured years of harassment after the fact. The prosecutor in that case was furious that he had been lied to by police, and the Lopilato brother ended up successfully suing the town.

Their testimony will show jurors who conflicted and dishonest Michael Lank is. Lank was the officer Jennifer McCabe personally called at 8:38 AM to tell him that she had just remembered that Karen Read had said “could I have hit him” while driving in the car to 34 Fairview Road. He was also the only Canton Officer who went inside 34 Fairview Road, but elected not to search the house or take pictures of Brian Albert.

Mike Rushworth.

Rushworth is a Canton transplant who sources tell us received a text message from Michael Proctor that the FBI found during their investigation, which reportedly called Karen Read a “cunt.”

Ashley Bell.

Ashley was not a witness to anything, but she was visited and harassed by MSP detectives Yuri Bukhenik and Brian Tully at her home. They also asked to look at her surveillance video footage, despite not being on the path that Karen Read would’ve taken to get home from 34 Fairview Road.

Tom and Erin Beatty.

Tom Beatty is a Canton resident whose daughter was friends with Colin Albert. His daughter received a phone call from Colin at 12:33 AM the night John O’Keefe was murdered. When she called him back the next day Colin said “never mind.” Tom thought it was strange because kids that age hardly ever call each other, opting to text instead. Over the summer Chris Albert may have committed felony witness intimidation by approaching Beatty and asked him to retract his statements about the phone call from Colin so that Chris could sue Turtleboy. Erin was reportedly threatened by Jennifer McCabe and a townie named Jill Harrison-Thomas, who reportedly told the 17 year old girl that she needed to stop telling people about Colin’s 12:33 phone call in the most graphic way possible:

“Instead of opening your mouth, why don’t you stick a dick in it instead.”

Meghan Mariani.

Mariani is a 20/20 producer who was threatened and harassed by Denise and Bob Galvin, and Jim Farris, outside of CF McCarthy’s on September 17.

Courtney Proctor

Courtney and Jill Daniels are essential to the conspiracy because they tie the Albert and Proctor families together. A lot of the communication between the McAlberts and Proctors went through her, including Julie Albert’s offer to pay Michael a “thank you” gift on the day he arrested Karen Read.

Michael Morrissey

It’s unheard of for a defense team to call the District Attorney prosecuting their client to the stand. But nothing about this case is normal, including Meatball Morrissey’s ridiculous August 25 press release in which he lied by saying that Michael Proctor didn’t know any of the witnesses.

John O’Keefe Sr.

This is the wildest name on the list. There have been unconfirmed rumors that Mr. O’Keefe has doubts about Karen Read’s guilt, and even requested to sit on her side of the courtroom. He has missed several court dates as well, and was reportedly close to Karen. If the Commonwealth’s plan is to paint Karen as a villain, then imagine how powerful testimony from Mr. O’Keefe would be saying the opposite. We will see if the rumors are bunk or have truth behind them in the coming weeks.

    1. I’m concerned. She laid the groundwork for not allowing 3rd party culpability. Defense can’t even mention it in their opening statement. When the defense tries to introduce it through witness testimony, Lally will object. The trial and Bev’s credibility will be determine by how she rules.

      1. If she doesn’t allow 3rd party defense, a legal defense strategy, she risks going down with the ship.

  1. These people need to be ready to record at all times from here on out.

    A lot of extra special attention from the MSP should be expected.

  2. Some of this testimony will be better than the best movies I’ve ever seen. Personal favorites: the LoPolato bros, Gravy boat, the lady who got bit by Chloe, the Boston cops, and hats off the courageous Beatty family who were not deterred by the possibility of crossing that psycho BA. Imagine telling a 17 year old girl to stick a dick in her mouth to shut her up, just unbelievable. Poor John and Karen, they had no idea how badly they were being set up

    1. I’d put my money on Tom. The McAlbert’s are lucky Tom adulted. He had half of Dorchester ready to take a trip to Canton.

      1. Never a good idea to have DOT kids on your bad side young or old male or female. Neponset kids are no joke

        1. St. Marks kids were the toughest. However, St. Marks, Neponset, Garvey, Toohig, Adams Corner, Walsh Park(Beatty’s hangout), all stuck together. Canton, they’re all eating their own.

          1. I forgot to mention, Hemey Park, old Wainwright(St. Marks), Dot Park, Ronan Park.even the Courts in Savin Hill.

            Of course there were battles amongst from time to time, shit, a bunch of drunken Irish kids, but we all grew up with Dot Pride and hung out together from time to time. Only thing I miss about Boston, Dorchester was the togetherness.

    2. Beatty is a good man! He never backed down to anyone. One of those really tough kids, back in the day, who could mix it up. Win or lose, he’d help you up, and let it go. I’m not surprised he brushes these Canton clown off like water off a duck’s back. He has a lot of friends for a reason.

    3. Don’t forget that yellow cottage tails dick put Tom’s name out there based on Chrissy Albert’s information. Wouldn’t it be great if Feds knock on kevins door for harassing a witness in a federal investigation.

    1. God bless that dad. What a horrible death his son suffered. There is just so much hurt and betrayal for that family and it’s been done at the hands of those that are supposed to protect and serve.

      1. Seeing John O’Keefe Sr name and the possibility that he sees through this scam, made me very emotional. I can not comprehend the pain and sorrow that this man has experienced. Having to see and hear the details of his son’s last hours must be excruciating. God Bless him for finding the strength to stand up for the truth.

        Aidan, Thank God for having the guts to be the voice of Officer John O’Keefe and expose the corruption surrounding his murder. You had over a handful of law enforcement involved in this murder to fight against and they couldn’t silence you.

        There are people out there who are just learning about and catching up on this case. They can’t believe what has happened. I wish I could say that it is just a fictional movie… But it is not.

  3. On God, this should be an incredible Netflix documentary with like 30 episodes with all the ins and outs of this case, and the plethora of players. It’s nuts I’ve been following this for over a year

  4. Interesting to hear how many potential jurors have been interviewed and not accepted. Doesn’t that tell us all that the majority of the people are somewhat familiar with the case and lean towards a cover up?

    I am keeping my fingers crossed that justice is served soon and those dirty McAlberts, Proctors, Bukhenic, Berky, Tully, Morrissey and the rest are soon in handcuffs

  5. Can we talk about Grant Smith.

    He is not normal.
    He is bizarre
    He is unstable
    He is inappropriate
    He is unhinged

    HE IS DANGEROUS

  6. So Brian Albert was acting hardo, demanded Tom Beatty talk to him. Tommy was at a post in the old neighborhood, “I’ll be right there.”
    Tommy shows up, gets in Fat Albert’s face, “you got something to say?”
    Albert turtles(no pun intended). Lmao, fake ass tough guy from the burbs. Dot Rats…. No matter what age, fuck around and find out.

    1. I posted this above, but worth sending to you as well. I married a DOT girl
      Never a good idea to have DOT kids on your bad side young or old male or female. Neponset kids are no joke

      1. Through The years Dorchester has had its problems. I will tell you one thing though, I’ve never seen a tighter knit community. I mean growing up you’re bound to not like one or two maybe even a few people. However, one of those people you’re not really fond of, but they’re from dorchester, they get in a little bit of trouble with an outsider, everyone has your back. This Canton clown crew, they are lucky that Tommy and half of Dorchester decided to be adults. Tommy is a tough guy, however there are lots more tougher than him that were willing. Tommy is also a great guy, a gentleman. That whole Canton would not stand a chance.

        1. Dorchester is the best tight knit place on earth. my neighborhood in Weymouth is all former South Boston and Dorchester families, we all are always looking after each other and the kids. Not like the Canton Pieces of shit fake tough guys. Cookouts are a bit crazy but we get though it haha

          1. Southie and Dorchester need to do something to keep the Yuppies and Liberals out. They are destroying two, once great neighborhoods.

  7. I think we can all admit. Finally. That the Constitution and Bill of Rights is no longer applicable.

    Free Karen Read. 💪

  8. Lots of good information here to prep people on who’s who. It’s great to hear that John O’Keefe’s father is seeing the facts for what they are. I can’t imagine what he must feel about this whole thing, especially after the McAlberts manipulated his family in the aftermath of his son’s murder. I hope he sits on Karen’s side.

  9. If what I believe is true am I correct in saying that Brian Higgins is a witness for the Defence and not the Commonwealth??

    If it is true, then wouldn’t it be sweet Justice if he were to get on the stand and tell the court that he was there and witnessed what happened!!

    Especially when the Prosecution will have rested their case in order for the Defence to put on theirs!!

    Going by the recent pre trial hearings this could very much be a possibility!!

    Yannetti alluded to a PROFFER by Brian Higgins to the FBI.

    If you go back to my previous comments especially about Caitlin Alberts statement it made zero sense to me why she exposed her own parents lies about what time she left the house. 🚩🚩🚩

    I also had issues with her claims that both her dad (Brian) and Higgins were upstairs because her dad was giving Higgins a tour of the house which she thought was odd because he had been there before. She also put Chloe upstairs with her in the bedroom too and then again exposed her mom’s (Nicole) lies by saying that JUST before she left her mom told her to change her shoes because it was slippery outside. 🚩🚩🚩

    We all know that her mom (Nicole) had previously given a statement saying she was asleep at 00:00, that statement was then changed to 01:00 after the information about Jens call logs coming out and her Apple Health Data showing that she left at 01:47 and not 01;00 like she previously claimed!! 🚩🚩🚩

    Caitlin was interviewed for the very first time AFTER the Federal Grand Jury where her dad Brian Albert was caught in several lies. Which was over 18 months AFTER Johns death.

    We then had the salacious stories coming out about Higgins and Karen 🚩🚩🚩

    And the usual suspects like Coffindaffer, Jill Daniels and Plevin trying to divert attention to him!! 🚩🚩🚩

    We then find out in the pre trial hearings that the McAlberts were getting nervous and Suspicious of Brian Higgins not receiving a subpoena for the Federal Grand Jury and that they all did, he had also stopped taking their calls and basically went Dark on them all.

    It then comes out that Higgins via his lawyer (again at a pretrial hearing) that he has been cooperating with the Feds and he was the one to tell them about being ordered to destroy his phone as was Brian Albert!! Not to mention all of the butt dialing!!

    Surely Higgins sees the writing on the wall after the Federal Grand Jury and the McAlberts being caught in sooo many lies that they are now preparing for him to be the new PATSY!!

    They must realise that there is a very good chance that they are going to be the ones on trial when Karen is completely vindicated in Johns death …..why else do witnesses have Criminal Defebce Attorneys including Lizzie Proctor??

    The McAlberts are trying to point the finger now at Higgins in court documents as part of their Defence!! Which they can then use as evidence at a later date!!

    We know that Brian Higgins isn’t listed on the witness list as a cop or ATF and we also know he is in Florida 1,361 miles away at least. Is this to keep him out of the clutches of the McAlbert Thugs until he testifies??

    What better way to expose the lot of them and keep himself out of the line of fire other than testify to what he saw??

    If he confirms John was in the house …..Karen is vindicated!!

    So who else could have killed John??

    We now also know that Julie and Chris Albert lied when they said they went home after the bar when in fact they did go to the house …..what we don’t know is WHAT TIME THEY LEFT!!

    Which would then make a reasonable logical person to ask the question WHY DID COLIN ALBERT NEED A RIDE HOME??….IF HIS PARENTS WERE IN THE HOUSE ….ALL ALONG!!

    We know Colin, Julie and Chris Albert all had a vendetta against John …..we also know that Chris Albert is a cowardly little hard man who gets other people to fight his battles and we also know that he has a hot line to both the cops and Mello which he has used to silence anyone and everyone that dares to expose him!!

    Higgins was the only outsider ….I don’t believe he took part in what happened to John but I do believe he witnessed it all!!

    Would you put yourself in the line of fire for a murder you didn’t commit…..when the easiest way out of it is to PROFFER what you saw and then become the hero in the case …..That got Justice for John!!

    My bet is on exactly that!!

    1. Agree with some of what you say but I think Higgins may be more involved than what you think.

      Didn’t we learn through Yannetti that Higgins texted John around 12:20 AM?
      Could Higgins have gotten in on the fight?
      What about the news from Friday that Higgins and Berkowitz were alone with Karen’s car for a “wildly” long time when it was at the Canton PD?

      So many shady and unsavory characters involved. They all seem like liars and low lifes.

      1. To be fair that could have been an innocent text, afterall they were supposed to be friends.

        We all know what Thugs the McAlberts are and probably convinced him to keep his mouth shut and do what he had to, to pin it on Karen and that it would all go away!!

        Unfortunately not one of them planned on Karen fighting back they thought she would be a good little girl and take a plea deal and get 6 months just like when Chris Albert killed someone with his car.

        When Karen refused to play ball, they then upped the charges to Murder hoping that would scare her into a Plea …..again they failed!!

        This gang of thugs didn’t even let it enter their minds that Karen would be believed let alone funded for her defence by the citizens of Boston!!

        The McAlberts are used to dealing with people with zero or little means …..it basically come down to them picking on the wrong one this time!!

        They have done everything they can to drain her resources ….seriously $21,000 just to witness a DNA test who are they kidding??

        They have tried to get her locked up as recently as September 17th 2023 by saying she broke her bail conditions.

        They have tried to get her charged with witness intimidation, as well as other members of the community in order to keep their secrets safe!! None of it has worked!!

        What these people fear most is the TRUTH ….Higgins is a keeper of their secrets no doubt due to threats and intimidation ….the moment they lost control of him ….the panic set in and they deployed Kevin Albert to have a word!!

        They also threatened the Beatttie’s but they also stood up to them!!

        Like I said I don’t think Higgins took part in the actual assault, I think he witnessed it and was then forced into helping to cover it up.

        Higgins knows full well what these thugs are capable of ….just look at the honeypot they set up for Aiden and got him locked up for 60 days without even being convicted of a crime. We know it was the same cops involved in Karens case that did it along with the help of Jen McCabe who befriended Aidens ex.

        Jen McCabe even told a court of law that LG was family ….just so they could force Aiden out of court then got her to make false claims of damage to her car which failed, so then they accused Aiden of shouting at her from across the street again they failed ….this was all done to get Aiden locked up for 120 days this time!!

        These people don’t care about lying to cops or DA’s they simply care about the end result …..saving their own cowardly ass’s by all means necessary!!

      2. Maybe when Higgins texted Hohn at 12:20 maybe he was warning him? Maybe Higgins over heard something and texted John to warn him ? Idk this is so crazy

    2. If that’s true, then F scumbag Higgins for waiting until the trial to come clean. That’s no hero, that’s a self-serving douchebag.

  10. Canton Coverup Part 169 is worth a second look. Is Lally in one of the football squares? Hernandez and Brian Albert in DC cop and again with Higgins at NYC Officer’s funeral the same day they ended up at Waterfall bar

  11. Interestingly, it appears that the defense doesn’t have a medical doctor (ER, surgery, pathology, whatever) as an expert witness. From looking at the autopsy photos (though I haven’t seen the actual autopsy report) I would think the medical evidence would be overwhelmingly in the defense’s favor. Maybe they don’t see a need, and figure they can get favorable testimony on cross examination of the two docs in the prosecution list?

    Dr. Fang

  12. I want them to ask Meatball why the courthouse buffer zone signs have the penalty for violation, but his pro McAlbutt video did not. Standing with law books as a background, it would have been easy to say that harassing witnesses was illegal under Mass Law chapter and verse. The fact he didn’t say so is prima facie evidence of entrapment, and look what happened? 60 days in the hole for @Turtleboy. Remember too that the CW gave him 90 days, which was in itself a violation of the law, and only after appeal did Aidan’s sentence get reduced.Why does the CW violate the law???? #corrupt
