The ugliness around this case is just sickening to me.

He actually didn't know most of the people in the house very well. Only Jen McCabe.

And the only cop in the house that night was Brian Albert Sr. The people in the house have LINKS to cops (Kevin Albert is Brian's brother, Colin Albert was a ring bearer in Proctor's sister's wedding, etc.) But there was just one cop in the house.

And I think it's pretty rich to say it's "awful to suggest" cops did anything wrong here after listening to the Proctor texts and the c u n t and leaky balloon knot. THESE PARTICULAR cops are bad apples, straight up.

Brian Higgins is a cop and was in the house that night.

I’m a female former prosecutor so there is very little I don’t already know about the misogyny of some cops - it’s a hyper masculine profession with a higher than average rate of domestic violence, so yes some of them refer to females as c*nts.

And some of the husbands of women posting here do the same thing among their male buddies and behind wifey’s back. Bankers, lawyers, doctors, engineers, etc.

Are you only just realizing we live in what is still a deeply misogynistic society? Have you not noticed the powerful movement of men and brainwashed women trying to take away the bodily autonomy of women?

There is no evidence that Proctor failed to follow the evidence where it was pointing - including the evidence of the perpetrator’s confession to half a dozen people at least.

And yeah, some cops are going to call the female perpetrator who murders another cop the C word. Can you really blame them? She ran him down like he was a stray dog in the road. I’m a feminist female and I think she’s a c*nt - she’s an embodiment of everything women get painted with because some of them actually are psycho clingy demanding and ultimately a killer.

Cops are bad. But too much here.

Also -- on that google search -- most likely not until later after the body found.

They appear to have zero evidence that she hit him on purpose or intended him to die. At most, they have a possible motive. I am actually surprised the judge allowed the charge to proceed.

First, the prosecutor charged murder, not the cops. There is no evidence the DA is biased against Read and in Massachusetts the degree of murder with which she is charged doesn’t require a showing that she intended to kill him. All that is required is to show that she acted with a degree of recklessness that could result in death, and I think (former prosecutor here) that the state is making that case given her BAC and the data from her car that shows she reversed at a high rate of speed into the area where he was standing after existing her vehicle, most likely following a heated argument.

The voicemails show the level of emotional lability Read was exhibiting while driving and afterward with a BAC 2-3x the legal limit. They also show that her anger at O’Keefe, which was exhibited in text messages, Facebook messenger messages, and frantic repeated attempts to call him all day had continued to escalate after their hours out drinking and culminated in this reckless murderous act and her continued raging at him by voicemails and dozens upon dozens of phone calls attempting to reach him so she could scream at him some more.

No, she didn’t premeditate his killing. No, she likely didn’t intend it either. But she acted out of drunken rage and probably thought she was showing him what’s what by knocking him on his ass or even just scaring him with a close drive by as he stood there - maybe after he told her he was DONE with her and maybe flipping her off as she drove away. Her act was extremely reckless and it killed John - second degree murder under Massachusetts law.

It’s not overcharged based on the evidence. If you excised the whole BS defense theory from the equation and just looked at the facts established by the actual evidence, it is outrageous how she acted. She’s a murdering drunken drama queen who probably suffers borderline personality disorder.

I still think she probably hit him, but either it seemed like no big deal even to people who were there/watching (maybe he got back up initially?) OR they did see him go down & didn't render aid. It's very odd to think she could have done this big 3 point turn drop off with super fast/long reverse period and none of the people out there at the same time noticed.
