The Karen Read Murder Trial: Canton Confidential

In a packed show, we got a special preview of Friday's Dateline interview with Karen Read, discussed the more than $250,000 that her first trial cost for security alone, heard from the ACLU of Massachusetts on why they weighed in on Read's appeal in Massachusetts' highest court and much more.

Weeks after a mistrial was declared in the Karen Read case, the fallout continues. Jurors have broken their silence, further state police investigations have come into question and a new and well-known lawyer has been tapped to lead the next prosecution. In this special edition of "Canton Confidential," we're looking back at the major developments and ahead at what shape the next trial could take.

In this special crossover episode, NBC10 Boston legal analyst Michael Coyne breaks down the Norfolk district attorney’s filing in the murder case involving Ana and Brian Walshe that his office doesn't plan to call the lead investigator, embattled Massachusetts State Police Trooper Michael Proctor, who became the subject of controversy for his role in the Karen Read murder trial. The episode is also being published on our show "The Searches for Ana Walshe," which covers the Walshe case.

Judge Beverly Cannone has officially denied Karen Read’s motion to dismiss two of the charges brought against her, ending – for now – the prospect that Read won’t be charged with murder at her re-trial.

Judge Beverly Cannone heard arguments about charges of second-degree murder and leaving the scene of a deadly crash, which Karen Read's attorneys are trying to get dismissed ahead of her retrial.
