Episode 104 | Blizzard of Lies, Part Two: Dave Wedge on John O’Keefe, Karen Read & the Bad Actors in Cop Town, USA, Canton, Mass

Inside Blizzard of Lies and the bad actors that helped turn this case into the circus it became. As the smoke from the trials is cleared, Read and her defense team face suits and counter suits with many civil cases in the wake of her acquittal last year. 

Blizzard of Lies, part two, with author Dave Wedge on John O'Keefe and the O'Keefe family, how the Read trials changed how we look at crime and policing, and the role journalism, activism, and independent reporting have in crime cases. Other topics: Kevin Reddington, the Clancy case, the Edgewater Technology workplace shooting (Reddington was the killer's defense attorney - he lost) on December 26, 2000 in Wakefield, Mass, grotesque police misconduct and (alleged) sexual abuse in Sandra Birchmore's case, and I question whether justice activists will show up for Latarsha Sanders, the Brockton mother of five who was granted a new trial for the murder of her two children.

Next show, Thurs Oct 22 at Off Cabot in Beverly, Mass
