"Probe Launched into Lead Investigator in Karen Read Case by Mass. State Police"

Massachusetts State Police trooper Michael Proctor, involved in the Karen Read murder case, is now under internal investigation for a potential violation of department policy. Read's defense team accuses Proctor of having conflicts of interest and relationships with witnesses, seeking to have her murder charges dropped citing new information from federal investigators. Proctor's alleged conduct has raised concerns about the integrity of the investigation, as Read's trial is set to begin on April 16.
