56: Conspiracy in Canton - 056

Week 7: The defense begins their case, and fireworks erupt in the courtroom as one attorney demands a mistrial... It's one of the most polarizing cases in true crime history, and the 2nd trial is underway. A 16-year veteran of the Boston Police Department was left to die in one of the biggest blizzards in Massachusetts history. The prosecution has charged his girlfriend, 42-year-old Karen Read, with his murder, claiming she hit him with her car during a fight and left him to die in the cold. The defense says Read is being framed, set up to take the fall by one of the most powerful families in this Boston suburb-—all to protect one of their own. There are discrepancies in statements, missing camera footage, and deep family ties to everyone from the lead investigator to the attorney general’s office to the judge. With every new piece of evidence, a new controversy arises.
