"Mass. State Police Investigate Lead Detective in Karen Read Case"
The Massachusetts State Police have initiated an internal investigation into Trooper Michael Proctor, the lead investigator in the Karen Read case, for a potential violation of department policy. This comes after claims by Read's lawyers that evidence was hidden and relationships between key witnesses and police investigators, including Proctor, were not disclosed. Proctor has been accused of planting evidence at the scene where Read's boyfriend, Boston police Officer John O'Keefe, was found dead, but Norfolk County District Attorney Michael Morrissey has denied these claims. Proctor will remain on full duty during the investigation.
