Karen Read's New Lawsuit Could Change Everything
Video Overview & Insights
Attorney Amanda Orlando breaks down Karen Read's newly filed lawsuit under the Massachusetts Tort Claims Act and explains why it could have implications far beyond the criminal trial.
There may be other convictions that will be deemed "unsafe."
The lawsuit alleges that the Massachusetts State Police and Canton Police Department failed to properly supervise employees involved in the investigation, raising questions about bias, accountability, and credibility. Amanda explains what the Massachusetts Tort Claims Act is, why the lawsuit was filed now, and how the allegations could affect testimony, future proceedings, and related civil litigation.
This video is intended to provide legal analysis and commentary on publicly reported court filings and allegations. All allegations discussed remain subject to litigation, and the parties involved have the opportunity to respond through the legal process.
Please see Ma. C/W v Miles King MTD. King's attorney Rosemary Scapiccio (Trial 4 on Netflex) has also been invaluable in obtaining even more documents.
With still more to come. This could/should 100s of cases.
Thank you.

Michael Proctor did not testify in the second trial. Get your facts right.
@olivialaing4714Proud of her for "going for the throat" of every agency that showed us all how corrupt this whole situation and trial was
@Hadacattoo2Proctor did not testify in the second trial.
@laanyanI hope Ms. Read gets justice. Big $$ justice. Maybe that will get these out of control law enforcement agencies under control.
@critterscute3642They knew. Both Canton & MSP knew as well as DA Lally, Morrisey & special prosecutors hired to go after anyone who stood up to speak out against the corruption!
@andyschoolIt is time for new rules around law enforcement, corruption, and qualified immunity. The police and justice system have proven that they need stronger guardrails and stiffer punishments.
@redlady222Typical of a grifter like you to want drunk driving charges thrown out when Karen Read murdered a cop. Cop Killer KarenRead.
@JaySmith-q4pBrian Higgins and Jennifer McCabe need to be arrested and sent to prison. We all know Higgins did it and Jennifer lured him there and she looked up how long it would take for him to die after being knocked out and left in the cold
@lifepathnumbernine6607She’s gonna be one rich woman. Hope she lives to enjoy it and her dear parents
@ShuhdafuncupGreat breakdown, thank you, new subscriber. Proctor and Goode are horrifying. May Karen and Justice prevail!!!
@therealdeal3672Goode and Proctor are two horrible human beings. Their families must be so proud.
@Andy34-r1tHang on to your hat, this is going to get really ugly as we learn more about what these two did. They’re going to go back through every case they worked on, it’s not going to be pretty and I’m here for it.
@verucasalt2391Tax payers are paying for these lawsuits. Laws need to change. Police need to be held financially accountable for their crimes
@hopsonpark9401He should 💯 be on the Brady List. So should Goode.
@SweetStepheeThank you SO MUCH for researching this claim. The level of corruption is staggering and often perpetuated by white privileged professionals.
@LolaRendaIn other words: he is Phucked!
@chees720This isn't just how it the cops are in massa clusters or canton, it's nationwide. Trust me. I worked side by side with cops for decades as a cop paramedic firefighter. That's the American cop culture
@AA-cp8ryQuite apparent MSP and CPD are rogue entities.
@ronstewart4545Karen Read will financially wipe out the state of Massachusetts with her lawsuits and the cost of living will sky rocket because the norfolk DA,msp and Canton police charged an innocent person not once BUT TWICE! those of us from Massachusetts hope she wins so much money she and her parents never have to worry again about everything they lost financially due to Massachusetts Corruption
@MassBornIf the DA didnt charge farwell it wont charge goode or proctor either . That DA is so corrupt and now they are throwing their own in for DA to continue the mass corruption when they pushed connor for DA
@MassBornSo the guys are shit. That doesn't make her crime non-existent. You're making a lot of assumptions and basically said..NOTHING.
Why focus on the prosecution over the crime..wow. must have gone to Trump University on how to shift focus from the criminal to the accuser based on words rather actions..sic.
Until you said antisemitic I thought you were being up front. Now it sounds like you're just trying to be a victim
@janetghumri4674If you had all of the cell communications of all LE officers in this country I suspect you would find this is not uncommon.
@13MandyI can’t help but think of John’s mom. Her bias appears to be preventing her from advocating for justice for her son, especially given the support she has shown to the opposing side.
@corinneolsen4112Well, I can’t believe this lawyer never heard of her, but that doesn’t mean anything. But I can’t believe she said he testified in both trials wrong wrong wrong wrong. He did not testify in the second trial. I really can’t believe her. That’s an idiot move.
@DonnaLGrenierThank you for cutting all this down for me
@sandysoxThank goodness for this video! In minutes, I have understood the Massachusetts Tort Act. Why it was filed and the consequences of Proctor 's and Goode's text chain! It has all been rather confusing up to this point, so thank you! 👍🏻
@mandyreardon2177MSP AND CPD ARE COOKED, DIRTY,RACIST,LYING COPS. Make us all look bad. 🤦🏾♂️
@haygood9Excellent, succinct analysis. Thank you. Will be following you.
@sk57158The most surprising thing about this is everyone (you guys) being so surprised (these) cops come away relatively unscathed almost every time every single day. Sad but true.
@35ABSTRACTHe didn’t testify in the second trail.
@65SlashTwoSadly/ tragically, the investigation and perjury at trials is so compromised, it may be legally constrained as to determining/ prosecuting those responsible for the death of Officer O'Keefe. His family has been gaslighted and lied to so very long, it will take something quite powerful to break through that thick fog of deceit. They were covertly sequestered and lied to within a few hours, And ongoing; deeply. They are a grieving family, but the "system" keeps feeding them lies, excuses, and misinformation. imho. They, and Officer O'Keefe deserve so much better. How many people would be in jail when the truth comes out? imho.
As one commenter wrote, i wonder what the O'Keefes think after reading this new lawsuit that contains verbatim excerpts of text messages.
Very good explanation and summary of the lawsuit ~ thank you.
Why were they police officers?? Are they that desperate for good policemen?? This bs has to stop....
@queenbeedat8726"Boys being Boys" uh huh uh huh uh huh. Nahhhh These mfs should be held at a higher standard. They took a swoen oathe over human beings. CLEAN RHEM THE F OUT.
@SamanthaMoreno-x9oAre all Massachusetts (In and around Canton) cops corrupt? Especially with all the deaths surrounding police.
@Scoobywilliams123Karen Reid is a psychopathic cop killer and a POS every little piece of evidence point straight to her. I’ll watch that trial every single hour of every day and she’s guilty as hell and she knows it.!!!
@M.logginsBrady List him
@MikeLittle-zc7zeEveryone associated with the prosecution of Ms. Read should be sued into oblivion. All of the lawyers should lose their licenses. The judge should be thrown off the bench. Those in law enforcement should be fired. All of them should pay damages to Ms. Read and really pay damages to all of society. Every podcaster and "expert" who said that she was guilty should lose his or her entire audience and should never be heard again.
@VTPSTTUAll those people lied under oath against Karen Read. Because it was the cop who killed John O'Keefe and put him outside in the cold. That's exactly why there was only one shoe ever found. Because the other one was inside the house. And the other crooked cop's never searched the house for the other shoe.
@davidbenderman3134They're ongoing knowing locker room jokes and other cultural tells, most racist can't 🫣 they blurt inappropriate remarks casually always looking for approval
@Kali4ActionWhy not adding Bukkake , Tully & the others
@hummingbird-wisdomOh he will testify. The Judge has not just decided he has to testify, but is actually EAGER for Proctor to testify - did you hear the judge?The judge is not having any of it , even though hes on medical exception. for the deposition
@meganjenkins2384I dont think any sane person could argue he wasnt biased…..he decided before autopsy, before seeing all the evidence and before interviewing all the “witnesses” that she was guilty
@Nipigon193Thank you so much for your breakdown of this filing. It failed to dawn on me that if Proctor is found to have perjured himself, that will have severe ramifications for the O'Keefe's suit. This is so crazy. Not to mention this Colin issue now 💁🏽♀️
@ShasPlace2Finally, the good guys win one!
