Karen Read is once again facing a Massachusetts jury, accused of killing her Boston police officer boyfriend, John O’Keefe, by allegedly backing over him with her SUV after a night of drinking. But from the very beginning, this case hasn’t followed the usual script. Instead, it has erupted into a legal firestorm marked by sensational headlines, missing evidence, and a trial so tangled it’s divided an entire community and public opinions online.
In this episode, Ashleigh Banfield unpacks the chaos with criminal defense attorney and Defense Diaries host Bob Motta, whose courtroom expertise and no-nonsense approach bring sharp insight into one of the most explosive cases in the country.

A 13-year-old boy. A murdered classmate. A justice system that doesn’t blink. Netflix’s "Adolescence" has shocked viewers with its raw, unflinching look at how far prosecutors will go, and how fast a child can become a criminal in the eyes of the law.
In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh sits down with clinical psychologist and best-selling author Dr. John Duffy, who’s spent three decades inside the minds of teenagers... and inside the homes where things go quietly wrong. Together, they unpack the most disturbing moments from the series, and Dr. Duffy reveals the hidden warning signs, and why we so often miss the chance to save our boys before it’s too late.

The abduction of a teenage tennis student, the lawyer representing 135 Nygard victims, there was no escaping the wrath of Peter Nygard. In episode 3 of Uncle Peter, if it wasn’t brutal and violent sexual abuse, Peter Nygard was verbally and financially abusive to almost everyone who worked for him, and employees lived in paralyzing fear of Nygard. And we ask the question on everyone’s mind: how responsible were the people who surrounded and enabled Nygard as his niece Angela is hit with a massive lawsuit?
