Livestream: Cellebrite expert expected back on the stand in Karen Read murder trial
Briefly

In Karen Read's murder retrial, digital forensics expert Ian Whiffin returned to the stand to discuss testimony regarding a critical Google search by witness Jennifer McCabe. The search, related to hypothermia, was claimed to be timestamped at 2:27 a.m., but Whiffin clarified that this indicated when the tab was opened, not when the search was performed. According to Whiffin, the actual search occurred around 6:20 a.m. Meanwhile, Read's defense claims she is being unjustly framed in a conspiracy, while prosecutors accuse her of abandoning her boyfriend John O'Keefe, who was later found dead in the snow after allegedly being struck by Read's vehicle.
Whiffin's testimony indicates the timestamp of the Google search suggests it was not made at the time McCabe claims, complicating the defense's narrative.
O'Keefe's phone data indicates he was likely in a vehicle just prior to the incident, which could contest the defense's theory of his death.
