Introducing: KAREN: THE RETRIAL
LAUNCHING APRIL 28TH – In Season 1 of KAREN, we unpacked the explosive case of Karen Read, accused of killing her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, with her SUV. After the first trial ended in a hung jury, the high-stakes case of Karen Read returns to court—and the pressure has never been greater. In KAREN: THE RETRIAL, we return to the courtroom—where the stakes are higher, the drama is deeper, and the fight for truth is far from over.KAREN: THE RETRIAL isn’t just about the verdict—it’s about power, perception, and who gets to write the story. Investigative Reporter Kristin Thorne is embedded at the heart of the action, bringing exclusive interviews, expert analysis, and real-time reporting from inside the courtroom.With new prosecutors, a relentless defense, and a public obsessed with every twist, we ask: Is Karen Read the victim of a malicious prosecution—or is there finally enough evidence to convict? And in a trial tried as much in the media as in court, how much does the truth even matter? KAREN: THE RETRIAL is your front-row seat to a legal battle where reputations, lives, and the very meaning of justice are on the line.Listen to KAREN: THE RETRIAL exclusively on Wondery+ and follow the show page to keep up on all the latest developments.
