Karen Read not guilty of murder at second trial, gets slap on the wrist for drunk driving after years-long legal battle

Karen Read was found not guilty of killing her Boston cop boyfriend — concluding a years-long legal drama that had court spectators flocking to the sensational case.
 
A jury on Wednesday acquitted Read, 45, on the most serious charges in her second trial of leaving John O’Keefe to die in a snowstorm after hitting him with her car outside a suburban Boston house party more than three years ago.
 
She was also acquitted of leaving the scene of an accident causing death.
 
The only charge Read was found guilty of is operating under the influence of liquor — or drunk driving, landing her with one year of probation.

His family will most likely file a civil suit and will win any money that she might make off media appearances or book deals.

Why was this even a National story covered by the media?

She kind of gives off Lori Vallow and Casey Anthony vibes.  Tho their cases involved children, this woman has a creep factor.  Either that or the news outlets are tired of war and Trump stories.

That already happened a year ago I believe, and is ongoing

I've not been following this case, however my Sugarpiehoneybunch has been, and she is ELATED at the ruling.   Therefore, I'm happy about it also.
