As cracks widen in the Commonwealth’s case, Sgt. Yuri Bukhenik takes the stand…and absorbs the fallout. With key evidence unmeasured, surveillance video reversed, and critical leads ignored, his testimony reveals more than just missteps and mistakes. It raises the question: was this investigation ever built to find the truth?

In the third week of Karen Read’s retrial, the prosecution leans on phone logs to frame a timeline and a motive. But the defense counters with science and expert testimony that could dismantle the case entirely. As credibility battles erupt and a controversial trooper looms, the question sharpens: is this justice, or just déjà vu?

The timeline is everything. And this week, the prosecution’s case hinged on one critical detail: when a Google search was made and who made it. In this episode of Karen: The Retrial, jurors are taken from the scene at 34 Fairview to the digital trail that could make or break the Commonwealth’s theory. With forensic experts reshaping the timeline and Jen McCabe back on the stand, the courtroom turned into a battleground of memory, metadata, and motive.

The retrial heats up—and the stakes are higher than ever.

Karen Read's defense tries to stop the case before it starts, a disgraced lead investigator becomes a ticking time bomb, and a new special prosecutor sharpens the commonwealth's attack. With a jury finally seated and opening statements fired, both sides are playing for keeps. Will the prosecution’s precision win the day, or will the defense turn a compromised investigation into Karen Read’s best shot at freedom?

A dead officer, a girlfriend on trial, and a case that tore a town apart.

When John O'Keefe was found lifeless in the snow in January 2022, Karen Read said she dropped him off. Prosecutors said she left him to die.

As the high-stakes retrial begins, we recap the explosive first trial—tainted evidence, missing pieces, and a system under fire. Was it a drunken accident, a murder, or a cover-up buried beneath a blizzard of lies?

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.

When Luigi Mangione was arrested for allegedly shooting UnitedHealthcare’s CEO, it sent shockwaves across the country, but the aftermath was even more unsettling. While mainstream media condemned the act as a brutal murder, a very different narrative was taking shape online—one that questioned the true villains in this story. Was the alleged shooter a violent extremist, or had he become an unwitting symbol of something much larger? 

Hosted by Law&Crime's Jesse Weber, LUIGI is more than just a true crime investigation—it's an exploration of a uniquely American moment. As this case continues to unfold in real-time, this series steps beyond the headline-grabbing "crime of the decade" angle to examine the cultural reckoning it has triggered. At its core, LUIGI captures a shifting America at a tipping point. From the public's growing disillusionment with corporate power to the radicalization of online discourse,—this is a story about what happens when the powerless begin to push back. LUIGI dissects the moral, political, and cultural divide at the heart of this case. Wherever this case goes, Law&Crime will provide you with all angles of the case; from those who have condemned the suspect and the crime, to others celebrating the act as revolutionary. 

With exclusive interviews and in-depth coverage, we challenge you to decide: Is the status quo enough, or is it time for a cultural reckoning?
