20 Texts That Could Destroy Karen Read’s Defense | Full Breakdown

In the Karen Read trial, one of the most disturbing pieces of evidence comes not from blood or broken glass—but from her own fingertips. Newly revealed text messages between Karen Read and ATF agent Brian Higgins expose a web of flirtation, deception, and full-blown narcissistic manipulation.
In these texts, Read falsely claims that her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, cheated on her during a New Year’s vacation. The truth? He was talking to a friend of his niece—no romantic involvement, no betrayal. But Read took that innocent moment and twisted it into a full-blown accusation. Why? Because she wanted to justify her own attempt to hook up with Higgins.
This video breaks down the full timeline of messages presented in court. From casual vacation banter to the chilling “John died” text sent just hours after O’Keefe’s body was found, we dive deep into every message—and what it reveals about Read’s mental state. This is more than a salacious side plot. This may be the key to understanding motive, intent, and Karen’s psychological profile as the prosecution paints her as someone capable of cruel deception to preserve her own image.
Watch as we dissect these messages line by line and explore how narcissists rewrite reality, weaponize sympathy, and paint themselves as victims—all while leaving destruction in their path.
