Karen Read Had Time To Try And Save John O’Keefe, Former Prosecutor Eric Faddis Weighs In
John O’Keefe didn’t die instantly. That’s the key takeaway from neurosurgeon Dr. Aizik Wolf’s testimony—and it could have seismic consequences for Karen Read’s defense.
In this premiere breakdown from Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski is joined by Eric Faddis, a former prosecutor, to explore what it means when a medical expert tells the jury there was a window of time—a chance to act, to save a life, to call for help. If Karen Read was responsible for hitting O’Keefe, then her decision to leave the scene could represent not just moral failure, but criminal negligence.
Was it second-degree murder—or fatal inaction? Faddis unpacks the legal duty to render aid, how it factors into jury instructions, and whether the timeline now favors the prosecution. This is where law, medicine, and morality collide.
