Karen Read appears in court for motion to delay murder trial
DEDHAM, Mass. — Karen Read, the woman charged in the death of her Boston police officer boyfriend, returned to court Thursday for a motion to delay her murder trial.
Despite a request from prosecutors and Read’s defense, Judge Cannonne said she wasn’t going to make a decision Thursday to delay the March 12 trial date.
Read is charged with second-degree murder in the death of Officer John O’Keefe in Canton.
Updates from Boston 25′s Ted Daniel:
Should add, Judge asked if defense was waiting for any dog DNA evidence.
Yannetti said NO.
The defense has claimed John O’Keefe was bitten by a dog. I haven’t seen any filings from the defense with dog dna results.— Ted Daniel (@TedDanielnews) February 15, 2024
We are done and in a holding pattern. The Judge said she wants to see how quickly all outstanding items come in before she will consider delaying the trial scheduled for March. #boston25 pic.twitter.com/jsbp9pm9yE

Judge is now going through the items of evidence that haven’t come back yet including reports from Verizon, Google, and a DNA lab #boston25 #karenread

It appears the Feds want both sides in the Karen Read case to sign a protective order (likely limiting what they can disclose publicly about the fed investigation) before the federal findings are turned over #Boston25 pic.twitter.com/DXVdlbU4o7

Read’s attorney David Yannetti says Feds emailed last night that they plan to turn over their findings in the coming days. #boston25

Judge Cannonne says she is not going to delay the trial date today. She says she appreciates that both sides need to hear from US Atty. #boston25

I’m in the courtroom for the 2pm Karen Read hearing. Lot of media in the press area because the Lopes case (still in deliberations) is in the same courtroom. My colleague @DrewKaredes is here for that.

A filing obtained by 25 Investigates last week revealed that Norfolk District Attorney Michael Morrissey and lawyers for Read had filed a joint motion in Norfolk County Superior Court asking to push back her March trial date.
Prosecutors and defense want the court to change the March 12 trial date to a hearing date instead – “in the interests of justice,” according to the filing.
Her lawyers claim a wide-ranging conspiracy of local and state law enforcement officials has framed Read – but prosecutors deny that and say there’s no evidence of such a scheme.
Both sides say they are still waiting to hear what federal authorities have uncovered in their probe of the case.

Red Sox at Reds preview: Sonny Gray makes his first start for Boston – The Boston Globe
Gray, acquired in a November trade from the St. Louis Cardinals, was one of Boston’s key rotation additions, along with Ranger Suarez, in the offseason. He was 14-8 with a 4.28 ERA in 2025.
“He’s very specific about his work. Every day has a purpose,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said of Gray. “Two hundred strikeouts, that’s something that we were looking for. The competitor. Every five days, this guy is going to give you everything.”
In his five career appearances against the Reds, Gray is 1-3 with a 4.18 ERA.
“It’s pretty much one of the only things that is continuing to push me, is to get to a World Series, to win a World Series, to pitch in big games,” said Gray. “I love the moment, and I am chasing that moment.”
Here’s the preview:
RED SOX (1-0): TBA
Pitching: RHP Sonny Gray
REDS (0-1): TBA
Pitching: RHP Brady Singer
Time: 4:10 p.m.
TV, radio: NESN, WEEI-FM 93.7
Red Sox vs. Singer: Wilyer Abreu 2-5, Roman Anthony 1-2, Willson Contreras 2-7, Jarren Duran 3-10, Caleb Durbin 0-1, Isiah Kiner-Falefa 6-16, Marcelo Mayer 0-1, Andruw Monasterio 1-4, Carlos Narváez 1-1, Ceddanne Rafaela 1-5, Trevor Story 0-4, Connor Wong 2-8, Masataka Yoshida 2-7
Reds vs. Gray: Will Benson 0-5, Elly De La Cruz 5-11, TJ Friedl 1-8, Ke’Bryan Hayes 4-17, Nathaniel Lowe 2-10, Noelvi Marte 0-5, Matt McLain 2-2, Spencer Steer 4-9, Tyler Stephenson 0-8, Eugenio Suárez 7-13, Jose Trevino 0-2
Stat of the day: Sal Stewart become the first Cincinnati rookie since 1958 to record three hits on Opening Day.
Notes: Cincinnati sends righthander Brady Singer (14-12, 4.03 in 2025) to the mound … With Hunter Greene and Nick Lodolo already on the injured list to start the season, Singer is considered one of Cincinnati’s most durable pitchers, leading the Reds with 32 starts last season … Singer has made five career starts against Boston, posting a 2-2 record with a 4.88 ERA over 24 innings … His last appearance against the Red Sox, on July 1 in Boston, ended after just three innings when he allowed two earned runs on three hits.
