Plow Driver's Testimony Shakes Karen Read Murder Trial

The Karen Read Trial: Plow Driver's Testimony Casts Doubt. The trial of Karen Read for the alleged murder of her boyfriend continues in a Massachusetts court. Day 27 saw testimony from Brian Loughran, a plow driver who was working near the crime scene early on the morning of the incident. Loughran stated unequivocally, "I did NOT see anyone in the yard of Fairview." This statement directly contradicts other evidence presented earlier in the trial. His testimony was particularly focused on his route and the visibility of the area. When asked about his route after plowing the Albert's residence, Loughran explained, "I go to the very end, take a left onto Chapman Street, back down Chapman Street, and then take a left back onto Fairview." He confirmed that he was plowing continuously during this time. The prosecution will likely use this testimony to challenge the timeline of events, while the defense may use it to highlight the lack of direct evidence placing Ms. Read at the scene. The trial continues.
