In the trial of Karen Read, the defense raised concerns about the methods used by investigators to collect evidence at the scene where Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe was found deceased. Specifically, they criticized the use of red plastic cups and a leaf blower during evidence collection, arguing that such unconventional techniques compromised the integrity of the evidence and could have led to contamination. Canton Lieutenant Paul Gallagher acknowledged that "nothing about this scene was standard" when discussing these methods. The defense suggested that the use of red Solo cups and grocery bags for collecting blood samples was inadequate and questioned the reliability of the evidence gathered in this manner.
Additionally, jurors in the Karen Read murder trial visited the Canton home where O'Keefe's body was discovered. During this visit, they examined a black Lexus SUV, believed to be Read's vehicle, which was parked near the residence. The SUV was noted to be missing a taillight and had visible scratches on the right side. Prosecutors directed the jury's attention to specific areas of the vehicle, including the center console and the front driver's compartment, while the defense emphasized the importance of observing the spatial relationships of various elements at the scene, such as the flagpole, fire hydrant, and the house itself. This site visit aimed to provide jurors with a clearer understanding of the physical context surrounding the incident.
