The Five Key Changes in Karen Read’s Story the Morning John Died

What made Karen Read ask “Did I hit him?” before anyone even knew John O’Keefe was dead—or that his body was in the snow? That single moment in court, as Jennifer McCabe described the scream-filled phone calls and Karen’s early-morning panic, could be a window into psychological chaos… or calculated guilt. In this episode, psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott unpacks the mental state of someone who may have been blackout—or brownout—drunk, unsure of what actually happened but haunted by the possibility of something horrific. Was Karen Read’s behavior that of a guilty mind, or a mind unraveling under the weight of trauma, fear, and confusion? And how does alcohol-induced memory impairment affect our ability to piece together truth in a high-stakes legal case? Dive into the emotional courtroom testimony, the shifting stories, and the unsettling question: was this panic… or projection?
