Y'all. I've turned this Karen Read trial into my whole personality. I listen to the podcasts while folding laundry, reading court docs in the carpool line like it's Colleen Hoover, and texting my friend group with “new theories” like we’re the FBI.
But after ALL that— I think she did it.
First, her whole “did I hit him?” spiral? That’s not normal. Like, girl. Either you hit him or you didn’t. The fact that her first instinct is to say she might’ve? OMG the guilt. That’s not how innocent brains work.
Second, the broken taillight thing. I cannot wrap my head around how people think cops snuck around during a blizzard to plant her broken taillight in the snow like it’s a Hallmark movie. That’s a stretch.
And listen—I love a good small-town cover-up story as much as the next true crime mom. But the idea that 15 cops, plus wives, plus neighbors, plus pets are all in on this massive secret? And no one’s cracked yet? Come on.
Also... her vibe? Unhinged. I know grief is messy, but she’s spiraling on a whole other level. One second she’s yelling, the next she’s Googling “how long to die in the cold.” Like... WHAT?
I’m not saying she’s evil—I think she was drunk, angry, and made a huge mistake. Then panicked. And now it’s gone way too far to turn back.
Anyway... Curious what y’all think. Tell me what makes you think she’s innocent or guilty—I’m still hooked and deep in it.
But be nice. I’m just a gal who needs to stop reading about Karen before bed.
