I think this is going to be twice what the first trial was, just in terms of magnitude and witnesses,” Karen Read told VF.

Karen Read's second trial got underway in a Dedham, Massachusetts courtroom on Tuesday with jury selection, a process that is expected to take weeks. Read is accused of hitting and killing John O'Keefe with her SUV after a night of heavy drinking and leaving him to die in the snow outside a Canton home in January 2022.

Across the first two days of jury selection in the second Karen Read trial, 150 potential jurors have been questioned.
