About this episode
Karen Read Trial - Michael Proctor's Texts Read By Friend

Description:
In a dramatic twist, texts from Trooper Michael Proctor — the lead investigator in the case — are read aloud by a friend. These messages, which contain vulgar language and comments about Karen Read, have become a flashpoint in the trial. Are they evidence of bias or just bad taste? This testimony could affect how the investigation itself is perceived by the jury.
