The Massachusetts State Police say Trooper Michael Proctor, lead investigator in the Karen Read case, has been relieved of duty and transferred away from the Norfolk County District Attorney's OfficeJust hours after the trial against Read ended with a hung jury, state police said Trooper Michael Proctor had been transferred from the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office.
Proctor's testimony in the trial against Read — charged with the murder of her Boston police officer boyfriend, John O'Keefe, in 2022 — drew intense and widespread criticism."She's a whack job … c***," Proctor said while reading the texts while on the witness stand. Would Judge Beverly Cannone preside over a retrial in the Karen Read case? What might be different next time around for the prosecution and the defense? We look back at the proceedings that ended this week with a hung jury.
Interim Col. Jack Mawn of the Massachusetts State Police took a strong stance against the trooper's actions during his investigation of Read. "The fact is it does taint all law enforcement in this case, and a lot of law enforcement hasn't covered themselves in glory already," Coyne continued."So I'm afraid this has put the commonwealth likely in a very fatal position."
"We need to work very hard to engage the public in a more meaningful way so that we can understand what it is that we need to do and where we want to go in order to maintain trust, build trust, and, in some cases, regain it," Mawn said.
