Phone Data Cracks or Cover-Up? Cellebrite Expert Ian Loughran Pressed HARD | Karen Read Trial Day 6 PART 1

In this high-stakes courtroom audio from Day 6 of the Karen Read trial, digital forensics expert Ian Loughran takes the stand—and immediately comes under fire during cross-examination. Loughran, a Cellebrite specialist who analyzed Karen Read’s phone and text data, is questioned about his methods, missing data, and how key message timelines were interpreted. The defense pushes hard on what was found—and more importantly, what wasn’t.

Did the digital timeline line up with the physical evidence? Were any texts deleted, altered, or misrepresented? And why did some data show inconsistencies in timestamps and Google activity?

This full audio segment pulls you directly into the courtroom as the defense challenges the backbone of the Commonwealth’s digital narrative.
