Key Witness Testimony Shakes Karen Read Trial

The Karen Read trial took another turn with the testimony of Commonwealth witness Judson Welcher. Welcher, during his testimony, stated, “I was not going to hit myself with a Lexus going 20MPH,” emphasizing the difficulty and importance of accurately replicating the conditions of the accident. His testimony highlighted the sensitivity of pedestrian impact tests to initial angles. The defense's own testing, according to Welcher, failed to support their claims. This testimony adds a significant layer to the ongoing trial, raising questions about the accuracy of the defense's reconstruction of the events. The trial continues to unfold, and further updates are expected.
