Key Witness Testimony Sheds Light on Karen Read Trial

The Karen Read trial continues to unfold, with Day 21 offering crucial insights into the evidence presented. A key witness, Judson Welcher, detailed his analysis of data retrieved from Ms. Read's vehicle. "What we see is, and this is noted in the report too, that when the vehicle gets into the Canton Police Department after this event, you can see the mileage is 12,665 miles," Welcher stated. His testimony focused on a specific "triggering event" recorded by the vehicle's system, which he described as similar to a stopwatch, capturing a ten-second window of data before and after the event. The data, according to Welcher, showed the vehicle's speed and other relevant information during this crucial period. This technical analysis adds a significant layer to the ongoing legal proceedings.
