Nagel Nails It! Sees Karen Read’s SUV Outside the House – Defense Can’t Escape!

Ryan Nagel testified on May 5, 2025, about what he witnessed on January 29, 2022, stating that he saw a woman in a black SUV outside 34 Fairview Road after midnight, which matches the description of Karen Read and her vehicle. His testimony is vital for the prosecution, as it corroborates other witnesses’ accounts, such as Heather Maxon’s, and helps establish Read’s presence at the scene at the time of O’Keefe’s death, aligning with the prosecution’s timeline.
Nagel provided a detailed description of what he saw, including the color and type of the SUV, as well as the appearance of the woman inside it, and his account was consistent with the prosecution’s narrative, adding another layer of evidence against Read. The prosecution highlighted Nagel’s testimony as part of a pattern of eyewitness accounts that place Read at the critical location at the critical time, reinforcing their case with his credible and spontaneous observation.
During cross-examination, the defense tried to suggest that Nagel might have been mistaken or that his view was obstructed, potentially leading to errors in his identification. However, Nagel confidently reiterated that he had a clear line of sight and that his memory of the event was accurate, and he also mentioned that he had no prior knowledge of the case or any reason to fabricate his story, which further enhanced his credibility. The defense’s attempts to undermine his testimony were unsuccessful, leaving the prosecution’s case even stronger, with their cross-examination failing to dent his account.
