Emily discuss the latest developments in the Karen Read case following her acquittal. Her legal team has filed two significant motions: a motion for the return of her seized property and a motion to release impounded sidebar transcripts.

First, we delve into the motion to return property. Karen Read's attorneys are pushing for the return of her 2021 Lexus LX 570 and personal cell phone, which were taken by the Massachusetts State Police. We explore the complexities surrounding the damaged Lexus, which was disassembled as part of the investigation, and how this might impact her car insurance claims.

Next, we examine the motion for relief from sidebar impoundment. Karen Read's legal team is seeking the release of transcripts from sidebar conferences held during both pretrial proceedings and the trials. The argument is that "good cause" for keeping these discussions sealed no longer exists now that a verdict has been reached. We highlight the video's commentary on the unnecessary impoundment of pretrial sidebar discussions, especially when no jury was present, distinguishing these from the justified sealing of discussions related to the federal investigation.

Join us as we break down these motions and their implications for the ongoing legal saga.
