Katrina Kolokithas Friend Of John O’Keefe
Description: In this compelling episode, we hear the emotional and revealing testimony of Katrina Kolokithas, a longtime close friend of victim John O’Keefe. As someone who knew John intimately, Kolokithas provides unique insights into his character, his relationship with defendant Karen Read, and the social dynamics within their Canton community circle. Her testimony offers a deeply personal perspective on the couple’s tumultuous relationship, including details about their fights, reconciliations, and the alcohol-fueled lifestyle that characterized much of their time together.
Kolokithas’s testimony is particularly significant because she was one of the last people to interact with both John O’Keefe and Karen Read before the tragic events of January 29, 2022. Her account helps establish the timeline of that fateful evening and provides crucial context about the couple’s emotional state and relationship dynamics in the weeks and months leading up to O’Keefe’s death. As a friend who often socialized with the couple, she witnessed firsthand the patterns of behavior, arguments, and interactions that prosecutors argue are relevant to understanding what happened that night.
During her time on the stand, Kolokithas likely addressed questions about John’s personality, his dedication to his role as a Boston Police officer, and his commitment to his family, particularly his role as a father figure to his brother’s children. Her testimony also touches on the social scene in Canton, the group’s drinking habits, and the various gatherings and parties that brought John and Karen together with their friends. This testimony provides jurors with essential background information about the victim as a person, helping them understand not just how he died, but who he was in life and how his relationship with Karen Read evolved over time.
