The Karen Read Retrial is set to begin, with Opening Statements potentially starting on Tuesday, April 15th. Will the defense strategies include the "Bowden Defense"? Alan Jackson will do Opening Statements instead of David Yannetti. What happened to Karen Read's appeal to the higher court? Get ready for gavel-to-gavel coverage on the Emily D. Baker channel!
Diddy's legal team is trying to subpoena unaired footage from "The Fall of Diddy" documentary. I analyze the legal arguments, reporters privilege, and the potential impact on the case.
A marathon hearing was held for the Bryan Kohberger case, covering various motions. Key points include discovery issues (voluminous unorganized data), defense concerns about preparing for a death penalty case, and disputes over AT&T records. I discuss the court's responses and the ongoing legal battles.
The Kouri Richins trial is delayed indefinitely due to an interlocutory appeal regarding a change of venue motion. I go over the case's background, the "walk the dog" letter, and the judge's reasoning for denying the venue change. Comparisons are being drawn to the Bryan Kohberger and Karen Read cases.

Kouri Richin had a Hearing on April 7th, 2025 to address Change of Venue Motion right before the trial began. There have been attempts to expand the jury pool, which were denied but the site judge. The Defense and the Prosecution tried to make comparisons of this case to Karen Read and Bryan Kohbeger cases but the judge shut down those types of connections.
A Motion to Stay the Trial has been granted due to an Interlocutory Appeal on the Venue issue, causing significant delays. We don't know when the trial will begin, it can take months or years but the judge made it clear the Richins will stay in custody while the wait happens.
Judge Mrazik has expressed displeasure with the media coverage, calling it incomplete and speculative. He feels the coverage is an indictment on media outlets and culture.

Bryan Kohberger had a hearing on April 9th, 2025 to go over Motions in Limine. What was first thought to be a 2 day affair, was completed in 1 day because Judge Hippler runs a tight ship! The Defense and Prosecution were able to go over 25 Motions. Some were decided on the stand, others were taken under advisement. The most intense part of the hearing focused on a dispute over AT&T records.
The Defense Attorney, Anne Taylor, made accusations about the Prosecution withholding evidence, leading to a strong rebuke from the judge. Judge Hipper reminded Anne Taylor that she is an "Officer of the Court" and that when he took on this case he doesn't want theatrics or accusations that aren't supported evidence about supposed bad conducts.
He said that he respects all of the attorneys and the types of accusations made can get a person disbarred! When Rulings are posted in writing, I will break them down in an upcoming Monday - The Emily Show podcast episode.

Bryan Kohberger will be back in court on April 9th & 10th, 2025 to discuss Motions in Limine and other filings. The State adds another Prosecutor to the team - Attorney Hurwit. An important limine is the AT&T Timing Advance Records. There's a dispute between the Prosecution and Defense regarding access to these records.
The prosecution claims the records related to Kohberger timed out and no longer exist due to AT&T's policy of keeping them for only seven days. The defense questions this, suggesting that law enforcement may have seen these records and that the Prosecution might not be fully disclosing information.
What's the truth about the 7-day retention policy? This could be a potential for a major issue if the Prosecution had the records and didn't disclose them, versus if AT&T simply stating the records no longer exist.

A federal lawsuit has been filed against Judge Canon and others, challenging the expanded buffer zone in the Karen Read Re-Trial. This video breaks down the lawsuit, which argues that the buffer zone infringes on First Amendment rights, acting as an unconstitutional prior restraint on speech.
We visually examine the extent of the buffer zone around the courthouse and discuss the arguments presented in the lawsuit. The plaintiffs claim the buffer zone is not narrowly tailored to serve a valid government interest and specifically targets the Karen Read case.
With jury selection underway and the trial expected to last 6-8 weeks, we explore whether the federal court will address these constitutional concerns on an expedited basis. Will the court rule on the buffer zone's constitutionality before the trial concludes?
Stay tuned as we keep an eye on this developing legal battle, where First Amendment rights are being tested.

The prosecution wants access to texts between Karen Read and Aidan Kearney. The texts are sought to show Read's "consciousness of guilt," not to prosecute Kearney. Judge Sisitsky gets mad because the prosecution want texts involving attorneys or others in group threads.
The judge clarified that the order was very narrow: only direct conversations between Read and Kearney would be turned over. Outcome is pending on the motion for protective order of Aidan Kearney.

Judge Cannone denied Karen Read's motion to bring in an expert on police procedure to support their "Bowden Defense" (claiming law enforcement didn't properly investigate). The judge stated she hadn't seen this type of expert used in Massachusetts cases. The defense can still use the Bowden Defense, but through questioning witnesses.
The court denied the defense's motion regarding a third-party culprit defense for Colin Albert but allowed it for Brian Albert and Brian Higgins. The judge expressed strong reservations about the Third-Party Culprit Defense, requiring more than "mere or rank speculation." I breakdown the threshold of evidence needed.

A former juror from the first Karen Read trial, attorney Victoria George, has joined her defense team! I break down the legal implications and why this is such an unusual move. One thing to note is that she was not a deliberating juror.
The First Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled against Karen Read's claim of double jeopardy, meaning she can be retried on all three charges. I explain the court's reasoning, which focused on whether a mistrial was necessary and whether a verdict had been formally rendered in the first trial.
Jury selection for the Karen Read retrial is set to begin on April 1st, 2025. I discuss the expected timeline, the challenges of selecting an impartial jury, and what to expect in the coming weeks.

Karen Read had her final Pre-Trial Hearing on March 25th, 2025. Judge Cannone surprisingly interrupted the Defense's argument to tell the Commonwealth that she is denying their motion to get communications between Karen Read and Yannetti.
An extended 200-foot buffer zone around the courthouse was granted, similar to the previous trial. Audio enhancing devices and clothing with messages about which side of the case they are on are prohibited in that zone.
The judge denied the Motion to Dismissed and I will deep dive into it on the upcoming episode of this Monday's Emily Show!

Trooper Michael Proctor has been fired by the Massachusetts State Police due to actions in the Karen Read investigation. While this is a workplace termination, not criminal charges, Proctor was found guilty of unsatisfactory performance and alcoholic beverages.
Superintendent Noble stated this was due to maintaining public trust and accountability. Proctor has the right to appeal. This firing is significant because it happened before the trial, allowing the defense to question him about it and potentially challenge his credibility. The prosecution may also have to address the firing.
The termination closes the internal affairs investigation, likely opening the door for this to be discussed during the trial and impacting how the jury views Proctor's testimony and the investigation's integrity. The prosecution's strategy in light of this firing is uncertain, but they may try to distance themselves from Proctor.

On March 18th, 2025, the Karen Read case was back in court, and things are heating up! Judge Cannone delivers a scathing rebuke to the defense, accusing them of "deliberate misrepresentations" and "flagrant violation" of Rule 14 regarding payments to the ARCCA Expert Witnesses. The judge has a conversation directly with Karen Read to see if she'd like to remove Alan Jackson as her representative, but she declined. The judge doesn't remove Alan Jackson from the defense team, decided not to exclude ARCCA Witness Testimony from the re-trial, and didn't financially sanction the defense team. Instead, she gave them a stern warning and remind them of their obligation of being candor to the court.
The Defense and The Commonwealth's Appellate Attorney ask for the trial date of April 1st, 2025, be pushed back again. This time they didn't request a date due to Karen Read appeal to the First Circuit to try to get counts 1 and 3 dismissed. The judge has taken it under advisement and will reconvene Thursday, March 20th, 2025 to discuss further. The judge is concerned that it will be hard to find a jury due to an HBO documentary about the first trial currently being broadcasted so close to the Re-Trail date.

On March 5th, 2025, Karen Read had a Hearing for the Motions to Dismiss. The ongoing debate about the Sallyport videos: Are they exculpatory? Why were they not disclosed earlier? And where are the missing portions of the footage?
Note from Canton Police Chief: "That is how it records, LOL. No Tampering."
Getting an Evidentiary Hearing is the best outcome to clarify what happened to the videos and who was involved. This can lead to the case being dismissed or provide grounds for appeal. Judge Cannone has to determine if the videos are exculpatory. If not, an evidentiary hearing will likely not be granted.
In the first trial, someone told Lieutenant Fanning that there were rumors that a juror was expressing opinions about the trial. The juror denied it but was removed anyways. The defense wants to know who told Fanning about the rumors and how they knew to contact him.
Karen Read will be back in court on Tuesday, March 18th, 2025.

At Karen Read's March 4th Hearing, the courtroom was buzzing with activity, and several key issues were addressed. Brennan officially confirmed that there is no longer a federal investigation into the John O'Keefe death case or related matters. This announcement comes after the defense previously invoked a "Federal investigation," which has now been clarified as closed.
The Judge questioned Alessi about the defense's disclosure of payments made to ARCCA experts. The court was not pleased that the payment records were not disclosed alongside the initial invoice. The defense clarified the timeline of when they learned of the payment and why it wasn't disclosed immediately.
The Commonwealth filed a motion for sanctions against the defense for allegedly violating a protective order by including certain testimony and text messages in a motion for reconsideration. The defense acknowledged an error but did not file a formal correction with the court. The Commonwealth requested an unofficial "gag order" in the case, which the court is considering.
The judge has taken up on advisement about where or not to do a Daubert Hearing on the Commonwealth's Expert Witnesses- James Crosby and Robert Gilman. The case is heating up, and tensions are high as both sides prepare for a fierce legal battle the next day on March 5th.
