Why Did ATF Agent Higgins Destroy His Phone & Sim Card In Karen Read Case?

Jun 04, 09:00 PM

In the latest episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke provides his analysis on the ongoing trial of Karen Read. Dreeke highlights the defense’s strategy of emphasizing reasonable doubt, particularly through the cross-examination of Brian Higgins. The defense is suggesting a potential conspiracy by showing inconsistencies in Higgins' testimony, especially regarding the destruction of his phone’s SIM card. The romantic exchanges between Higgins and Karen Read seem more juvenile than salacious, weakening the prosecution's narrative of a jealous love triangle. Dreeke points out that the relationships among the involved parties, while potentially toxic, are not unusual and don't necessarily indicate guilt. He also speculates on the motives behind the destruction of phones, suggesting that it might be to hide unethical, though not illegal, behavior. Dreeke concludes that while the actions of the involved parties raise ethical questions, they do not necessarily amount to murder, and the defense’s focus on reasonable doubt is proving to be effective.
