Attorneys for a woman accused of striking her Boston police officer boyfriend with her SUV and leaving him for dead in a snowbank outside another officer's home began presenting their case Friday that she was framed by police, with a snowplow driver who said he didn't see a body.
Prosecutors allege Read and O'Keefe had been drinking and fighting before she dropped him off at Albert's home shortly before 12:30 a.m. They say she hit him with her SUV while making a three-point turn and then drove away. When Loughran returned around 5:30 a.m, the street was blocked and first responders were there, he said.
Several witnesses testified the couple had a stormy relationship that had begun to sour. Prosecutors presented angry texts between the couple hours before O’Keefe died. They also played voice messages from Read to O’Keefe that were left after she allegedly struck him, including one left minutes afterward saying, “John I hate you.”
Scordi-Bello said she saw no signs of a “significant altercation,” but she also said it’s possible that some of the injuries to his face could have been caused by a punch. Defense attorneys have repeatedly raised doubts about the police investigation, including that Albert's house was never searched for signs of a fight involving O'Keefe and the crime scene was not secured. They highlighted that police collected blood evidence in plastic drinking cups.
