On Friday, September 6th, Karen Read was interviewed on ABC's 20/20 show. I share my initial thoughts on the show and what this could mean for the upcoming retrial in 2025. I will go more in depth in this week's podcast episode.

The Commonwealth filed motions to block defense attorneys from getting the full extraction of Trooper Proctor's work phone. His personal cell phone was turned over, but now they are trying to get into his work phone. I will go more in depth about that on Wednesday's podcast episode as well.

For last week's podcast, I went over the arrest of former Police Officer, Matthew Farwell, for the murder of Sandra Birchmore and the Feds charging him with Killing a witness or victim. I answered some of the questions you had in the comment section of the video and what could come next.

Governor Healey of MA brought in Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey Noble from New Jersey as the new Head of State Police. Not only is it good news to appoint someone from outside the state, I wouldn't be surprised if they end up under a consent decree.

Kari Morrisey filed a fifty-two page motion to reconsider Alec Baldwin's dismissal with prejudice on a request to exceed the page limit. The Judge denied the state's motion for extension of page limits and cited case law that talks about deterring frivolous filings. Kari Morrissey can technically refile this motion again but it has to be within the 10 page limit.
