An attorney for supporters of Karen Read, a woman accused of killing her Boston police officer boyfriend in 2022, have filed a motion to fight proposed restrictions on demonstrations during the trial. We're just two weeks away from the high-profile murder trial against Read, who is accused of hitting Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe with her car in Canton, Massachusetts in 2022, killing him.
Her lawyers have alleged that she is being framed amid a massive coverup, which the prosecution has denied. The motion aims to challenge the restrictions on demonstrations during the trial, ones that would keep demonstrations back at least 500 feet from the courthouse in Dedham. The restrictions would also ban people - and animals - from wearing any attire that suggests a "favorable or unfavorable opinion of either party." Though the motion has not yet been approved, supporters of Read have balked at the proposal, calling it a violation of First Amendment rights
