Judge denies motion to dismiss Karen Read's murder case
A judge has denied a motion to dismiss the murder case against Karen Read. The decision keeps her second trial scheduled to start on April 1. Judge Beverly Cannone ruled that the alleged misconduct by the government did not warrant dismissing the case. The defense claimed prosecutors withheld important evidence, including surveillance videos from the Canton Police station when Read's car was towed. The judge stated that Read's constitutional rights will be protected during the upcoming trial. Her defense team's claims did not meet the necessary threshold for dismissal, according to the judge. The case continues to attract attention as the trial date approaches.
