Well, well, well... Karen Read's Lifetime movie dropped and as someone who has been following the case and both trials closely for over two years, Molly's ready to talk about it and who better to talk about it with than two of the people she spent hours a day with discussing the case on TikTok Live. LOL. You already know Cap'n Scoot, but we've also got Jamie, an attorney based in South Carolina who started paying attention to the case after her former roommate, a Dedham local, mentioned to her that she totally had to look into it.

There is no IMDb summary for this film (because of course there's not), but here's the summary from Lifetime's website:

When Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe is found dead in a snowbank outside a friend’s home, his girlfriend Karen Read, is ​charged in connection with his death. What begins as a tragedy quickly ignites a firestorm that captures national attention.
