Apr 26, 09:00 PM
In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Tony and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke discuss the complex case of Karen Read, who is accused of involuntary manslaughter after allegedly running over her boyfriend. The discussion highlights the difficulties of investigating a case where law enforcement officers are involved and the necessity of maintaining transparency to foster public trust. They delve into how Karen’s consistent behavior throughout the investigation could be advantageous for her defense. The conversation also touches on the complications arising from high alcohol consumption among witnesses, leading to unreliable testimonies and potentially faulty memories. Physical evidence such as broken taillights and scratch marks becomes crucial in such scenarios where verbal accounts are questionable. Robin emphasizes the challenge of establishing clear motives and behavior patterns due to the conflicting and blurred memories of the involved parties.
