The Latest in the Karen Read Trial. Read’s second trial for the murder of her boyfriend, former police officer John O’Keefe, began last week. Monday, a Cellebrite digital intelligence expert, Ian Whiffen, took the stand and testified that John O’Keefe’s phone stopped moving after he was dropped off at the Albert’s Canton home, that at “12:32 a.m., the device was unlocked and locked a final time, and there was no more activity on the phone until shortly after 6 a.m.” Whiffen went on to say that the temperature of O’Keefe’s phone battery dropped steadily throughout the night. Tonight, we'll discuss the latest from the trial and how today’s testimony might impact the defense's argument.

The Feds Arrest Two Judges. The Trump Administration’s aggressive crackdown on immigration continues as federal authorities arrest two judges; a Wisconsin judge and a former New Mexico judge in two separate cases. Both are accused of interfering with Trump administration immigration enforcement efforts. The arrest of Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan is very similar to the 2019 case of MA judge Shelley Joseph who was accused of helping an undocumented immigrant evade ICE agents. Dan will discuss the similarities between both the WI and MA case as well as dive into the case out of New Mexico of a former judge and his wife accused of harboring of an undocumented immigrant with alleged ties to the notorious gang Tren de Aragua.
