FILE — Karen Read departs Norfolk Superior Court following a day of jury selection in her trial, Wednesday, April 17, 2024, in Dedham, Mass.

The defense attorneys said five jurors came forward after her mistrial saying they were deadlocked only on a manslaughter count, and had agreed without telling the judge that she wasn’t guilty on the other counts. The defense portrayed Read as the victim, saying O’Keefe was actually killed inside Albert’s home and then dragged outside. They argued that investigators focused on Read because she was a “convenient outsider” who saved them from having to consider law enforcement officers as suspects.
