She ‘Saw Him Go In’... But Was Panicking About Hitting Him-Explain That, Karen

In this episode, we’re pulling apart one of the most confounding contradictions in the Karen Read case — and it all comes down to what she knew, when she knew it, and what she said.

Karen Read told investigators she saw John O’Keefe walk into the house that night. But then, hours later, she was sobbing, pulling at Jennifer McCabe, frantically saying: “Did I hit him? Could I have hit him?”

Let that sink in.

If she saw him go inside, why was she panicking that she ran him over? Why was she screaming to Google “how long to die in the cold” if she thought he was safe indoors? And how do you reconcile that kind of panic with someone who didn’t know their boyfriend was lying dead in a snowbank?

Tony Brueski sits down with retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to analyze this bizarre contradiction. Is it a case of genuine confusion and guilt-fueled anxiety — or a Freudian slip from someone who knew exactly what had happened?

We break down the timeline inconsistencies, look at Karen’s own statements from that morning, and unpack what her emotional reactions tell us — and what they don’t. Because when you claim to have seen someone walk into a house, you don’t start crying hours later about hitting them with a car… unless there’s more to the story.

This episode gets to the heart of the defense’s weakest point — and why the prosecution is leaning into Read’s own words to prove what she knew all along.
