About this episode

A blizzard in Massachusetts. A Boston police officer found dead in the snow. His girlfriend, Karen Read, accused of murder. 

After last year's mistrial left the country divided, the courtroom drama is back in the spotlight—this time with higher stakes, new prosecutors, and explosive evidence emerging as the case unfolds in real time.

Law and Crime’s hit podcast series returns with a brand new season: KAREN: THE RETRIAL. Hosted by Emmy Award-winning investigative reporter Kristin Thorne, each episode delivers exclusive analysis, behind-the-scenes access, and expert interviews you won’t find anywhere else. 

With both sides fighting to control the narrative and new revelations coming to light, the search for truth is more urgent—and more complicated—than ever.

Listen to episodes of KAREN: THE RETRIAL, exclusively and ad-free, right now on Wondery+. Start your free trial in the Wondery App, Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
