Karen Read Trial Forensic Expert reveals evidence in red solo cups that have never been tested

A forensic scientist from the Massachusetts State Police Crime Lab, who was unveiled during Karen Read's murder process, that Red Solo Cup has never been tested in Red Solo Cup in the death of her Boston police officer, John O'keefe.

The testimony on Wednesday came from O'keefes niece, which he took care of after her parents had died within months, as well as forensic experts who were involved in the search for Reads Lexus SUV and Crime Labor tests.

Maureen stubborn from the Massachusetts State Police Crime Labor said that they found broken glass, scratches and at least one dent on the back of Reads vehicle as well as blood and debris from O'keefes clothing.

She also dabbed the evidence that Canton's police had collected in Red Solo cups, even though she said that she had never been tested. As a result, she could not even identify it as blood.

She collected rehearsals for additional tests, but said that she did not carry out any tests herself. That was the responsibility of someone else.

She also said that she could not rule out the damage to Reads SUV before January 29, 2022, the tomorrow when O'keefe died.

The red substance, which was referred to as “red -brown”, when she saw her, was collected by the cantonal police by the front of the 34 Fairview Road under a snow at the point where the investigators believed that O'keefe had been found.

“I think they still test it, even if there is no custody chain, just to context the case,” said Paul Mauro, a retired NYPD investigator who is pursuing the case. “If there was a fight in the house, O'Keefe would probably have knocked back. If the blood in the snow has returned to one of the Alberts or Higgins, when they are defense, make back flips.”

However, if the swabs still exist, the defense that they will be tested today could.

The police could also have done a better job in order to collect and document evidence, especially after a number of cases in which the officers had to make unusual decisions, including another person who filled the level of an evidence pocket, with a shopping bag instead of a base pocket and sending someone home to send a blower to send someone to the police station to send the right ones To obtain evidence.

Other unpleasant moments were an evidence pocket with the wrong number of broken rear lights and a brief delay after an Sergeant of the state police had been asked to open a mischievous evidence pocket with one of the victim's sneakers.

“You do not have to make an investigation into murders every day to know that if you have collected a few things from a crime scene, you can keep and make sure that it is evidence so that you can call it up later because you don't know where to go,” said Mauro.

“If you knew enough and took enough care to take out samples from the scene, how imperfectly they did … and they put every cup in a separate stop and shop bag, initialized it, it was as good as possible in a snowstorm. It is unorthodox. Not perfect but defending.”
