INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY TO PREMIERE "A BODY IN THE SNOW: THE TRIAL OF KAREN READ," OFFERING UNPRECENTED ACCESS TO READ AND HER LEGAL TEAM
(Miami, FL) - On a cold January morning in a sleepy suburb outside of Boston, a local police officer named John O'Keefe is found dead on a fellow officer's front lawn. Authorities, citing a toxic dynamic between O'Keefe and his girlfriend, Karen Read, immediately narrow in on Read as their main suspect. They allege Read backed into O'Keefe with her car in a fit of passion and then left him to die in the snow - but Read maintains her innocence with her defense alleging something far more nefarious was at play. With the 2024 trial ending in a mistrial, and a 2025 re-trial upcoming, many questions continue to swirl over what really happened that night. In a new multi-part docuseries, Investigation Discovery takes viewers behind the scenes of the Karen Read 2024 murder trial, with unprecedented access to Read, her legal team, and other key voices involved in the case. A BODY IN THE SNOW: THE TRIAL OF KAREN READ is slated to premiere on ID over three nights on Monday, March 17 and Tuesday, March 18 from 9-11p ET/PT with the one-hour finale airing on Wednesday, March 19 at 9pm ET/PT. Episodes will be available to stream on Max.
The investigation into John O'Keefe's death and Karen Read's eventual indictment on second degree murder and manslaughter charges ignited a contentious trial and national media sensation with Read's defense not only asserting her innocence - but alleging a far-reaching law enforcement coverup. As Read and her legal team prepare for a re-trial, conspiracies, questions, and emotions swirl around the truth. In addition to following Read and her legal team, the docuseries examines the investigation and theories through access to key figures, as well as unprecedented perspective into Karen's mindset during the 2024 trial, offering fresh insight as the case continues to develop.
A BODY IN THE SNOW: THE TRIAL OF KAREN READ is being produced by Unsolved Productions Inc for Investigation Discovery.
