    A guy plowing snow would be paying attention even at 2am

    There is no reason to debunk the DNA evidence.
    No one is saying the DNA is fake. The question is how the DNA got there. You have to exclude the hair because John is in and around the car all the time. Plenty of opportunity for the hair to be there without being hit by the car. As for the taillight, We have pictures of the shopping bag with the open cups of John's blood in the sallyport right next to the tail light. Why would that ever be there in the first place? No DNA on the glass on the bumper. The glass wasn't even from the crime scene (this alone should be all the evidence anyone needs for a coverup) the DNA experts would have no idea how the DNA got there so there's no reason to question them.

    Oh nooo Joel cant listen your guest said even if she hit him he wouldn't prosecute because of poor evidence collection 😢😢😢. Lets hope hes never in a situation 😢

  • @potooleftl June 23, 2024

    The jury coming back not guilty doesn't men there is a conspiracy by the others.

  • @angelapowell2366 June 23, 2024

    Love Tim to bits, but …. i can't believe youve bought into the dog bits scenario. Im sure youve considered her and her fathers statements…. shebhit him, she hit something……

  • @dawntaylor3972 June 23, 2024

    End of this saga..John Okeef brother stared down his brother's accused girlfriend and suddenly puts all the pieces together and becomes her knight in shining Armour

  • @dawntaylor3972 June 23, 2024

    I am just a hairdresser and if I came upon a body in a snow storm and was tasked with preserving the crime scene..I would have used lawn spikes with flags to pinpoint the body of evidence..and I would have certainly went to the door of the crime scene to question the homeowner..bullocks..total setbup..probably they were going to blame the snow plower.then when Karen called frantically looking for the love of her life..they found thier new target..free Karen

  • @sabcb June 23, 2024

    It does not snow that much in MA. We had maybe 2 storms this winter- nice thought tho lol

  • @Marilyn88- June 23, 2024

    Chase Hawk and Jansen are so on point. I do not agree with Wood but I’m not hating on him – I disagree with his stance of not leaving a paper trail. If you’re complying with the rules, you shouldn’t be afraid of what is in your texts.

  • @dollydampman2633 June 23, 2024

    Disgrace!!!!

  • @colleen019 June 23, 2024

    Why Jeff is a guest on this show is beyond me. He doesn’t know the evidence. He’s been so bias from day one. He said himself he believes she’s guilty bc the troopers told him that. He’s admitted before coming on that he didn’t watch the trial that day. He should not be on this platform.

  • @potooleftl June 23, 2024

    OJ was guilty until the N word by Mark Furman was discovered. Same idea with Proctor.

  • @JulieAnne13 June 23, 2024

    She did not hit him and leave him to die. I think it’s fairly clear based on the evidence. Absolutely shoddy investigating based on personal bias. Clearly dog bites. Yes, this is a conspiracy based on corrupt town cops. They are covering it up. He probably fell and hit his head during a fight. I get it – I’m from Massachusetts. Come on, guys… this is not difficult. The prosecution should never have brought this case.

  • @patriotiac572 June 23, 2024

    Justice is coming. Thank you for covering this case, STS.

  • Karen read was driving SO DRUNK that she doesnt remember. John died either because she hit him or hypothermia for leaving him there (intentionally OR NOT) laying down as an easy pray for maybe a dog or person to attack him. THATS THE BOTTOM LINE. Her actions are in minor or mayor degree DIRECTLY LINKED to the result of that night. Karen SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR SOME LEVEL OF RISPONSIBILITY, PERIOD. She might not remeber but in her GUT she knew she hit him, she even said it and left him there on the snow WITHOUT EMPATHY. I pray for the jury to be smart enough and use common sense to see through the smoke screen created by the media, his skilled defense attorney and the incompetence and mistakes of the prosecutors and investigators. Hope for the poor Okeefe family get some justice.

  • @MissTi23 June 23, 2024

    Has anyone explored the possibility that he was drunk and had a slip and fall and then a tow truck or another vehicle could have hit him? How about him being beat up before arriving to fairview? Maybe Karen knocked him in the head and then threw him out on the ground? Something happened here and it definitely wasn't 1st degree murder. What in the hell was it? We need to hear some explanation!! Justice for John Okeefe.

  • @GMof8 June 23, 2024

    “Y’all are so funny” and “bless your heart” are not compliments in the south 😂😂😂

  • @sunshinecheryll June 23, 2024

    Murdaugh case had multiple

  • @sunshinecheryll June 23, 2024

    Remember Mr Scanlon went to the defense and told the story. You all don’t believe any of that??

  • @sunshinecheryll June 23, 2024

    Thank you Tim! If people look at all the evidence the wrong person is on trial. Mr FBI guy instead of just saying you think Karen is involved how about you explain the part of the evidence that shows she did.

  • @pistolpete8231 June 23, 2024

    Joel I'm convinced you're an absolute grifter, I have lost all respect for you.
    So let me get this straight: his arm has no bruises and was not broken therefore I'm pretty sure it has been established that the theory she hit him with her car is fluff. Yet for some strange reason you believe she hit him "accidentally". What trial have you been watching exactly? The prosecution's own medical examiner said she doesn't believe it was a motor vehicle collision. Nobody attending that party saw a body and neither did the snow plow driver – who was highly credible.
    You sir, need to stop peddling and grifting just to sell books.

  • Not watching your show based on comments.

  • @susanaroche8642 June 23, 2024

    if the medical examiner can't state the cause of the injuries how can the jurors find KR guilty

  • @YellowB70 June 23, 2024

    Wow, I have actively tried to avoid this case as I am saving myself for Donna in The Fall but this panel commentary was riveting. Looking like my Summer “break” may now be in jeopardy 😮😅

  • @marrplam6232 June 23, 2024

    KR should be found as acquitted, there is just no evidence to say there was malice and that she wanted him dead! Even 2nd degree manslaughter cannot stick…sorry but this trialwas a farse entirely! If I were a juror I wouldn't convict her based on what I heard and saw!

  • @napnap5094 June 23, 2024

    What does Mr FBI think about the fact that the actual FBI actually produced documents handed over and the accident reconstruction witness’s will be called by defence as there experts? Yeah Mr Jeff FBI hard man from Afghan GI Joe

  • @napnap5094 June 23, 2024

    Dude FBI has an ego he still thinks they just investigated badly and thats why defence while succeed, not the facts that show she looks incredibly innocent of charges and the prosecution should never endited her!

  • @napnap5094 June 23, 2024

    Sorry mate proctors txt messages are only 1 in a literny of problems with this case that easily are a problem for the commonwealth there not even close to getting a conviction crooked cops and crooked McCabes and Albert’s and Mr FBI on panel just can’t let the thin blue line go he’s like Coffendaffer! What the hell does his Afghan service have to do with this he always brings it up!

  • @cynthiagimbel6590 June 23, 2024

    Joel and guests: watch video w Attorney Melanie Little and k9 trainer. Her guest w years of experience, training GSD and Malinois says JO arm wounds r EXACTLY what large protector-dog bites look like. He even shows several "training arms" with these same wounds and describes how many dogs bite and pull, so puntures r less common. Plus the victim is also pulling away. This video is in-depth, over an hr and full of detail about how dogs bite. The guest even makes a strong point about how hard it is to teach k9 dogs to puncture bite and hold on…which is why the wounds to JO's arm look like raking from teeth rather than punctures.
    The common directionality of all those lacerations on JO, spanning his entire arm, could not have come from 45 tiny pieces of shattered polycarbonate in a tailight lens. Nevermind how improbable that the tailight would shatter at such low speed w a glancing blow to a human arm! Preposterous!
    I'm quickly concluding from watching this trial every day, that KR did not hit him at all, even accidentally. No surprise if its true that the dog-bite expert for defense approached them….she is probably concerned that an innocent person is being framed.

  • @sandyb6668 June 23, 2024

    The defence never had anything, still keeping with the 50/50.? What’s happened is you all have been conned by a band of gypsy swindlers who have used theatrics and smoke and mirrors, I’d say the majority of KR supporters are tiptoeing away right now! KR’s defence never expected this to go to trial, don’t you get that. What they have, and all they have ever had, is a big nothing burger. Dublin, Ireland.

  • @cynthiagimbel6590 June 23, 2024

    Tim Jansen rocks. This case stinks to high heaven!!! I thought a while ago she accidentally and unknowingly hit him. Now I think she had nothing to do w his death.

  • @margm.886 June 23, 2024

    RE Dog DNA they found pig DNA… dog's eat/munch on DRIED Pig's Ears from any Pet Store!! also re DNA clothes were wet through with snow aka water which "Washes off saliva" therefore DNA ..was not tested before drying off in an OPEN room to dry for Multiple Days!!! HMMMM

  • @dianehill6612 June 23, 2024

    You do realize the FBI is already involved in this case.

  • @rickjason215 June 23, 2024

    The Medical Examiner said there were no bruising on John’s body. If he got hit by a car, typically a body is bruised.

  • @grandykim June 23, 2024

    Pig dna? Did a wild boar attack him? Are those native to winter Mass?

  • @grandykim June 23, 2024

    Wow. I lost all respect for the fbi agent when he said that wasn't a dog bite. Teeth marks on clothing and all…. hmmm😮.. He sounds and acts like a CW trooper witness

  • @grandykim June 23, 2024

    ? Does anybody think Lally is trying to lose intentionally in order to expose the corruption in Mass?

  • @lisaravener8215 June 23, 2024

    Joel, they did not swab the arm for dog dna, they swabbed the holes in the shirt—not even the entire shirt—. Par for the course in this case.

  • @MaryVegas007 June 23, 2024

    If you are a REAL journalist have Dr 🐢 Turtleboy on with your dummy FBI X Jeff Wood! He will get schooled about thevTRUTH

  • @reneebock9673 June 23, 2024

    Can a judge overule a jury's verdict in a criminal case?

  • @cherylrevell3081 June 23, 2024

    Good show.

  • @sherryparis5647 June 23, 2024

    The leaf blower is beyond me

  • @sherryparis5647 June 23, 2024

    What if he went in and hurt himself The dog got excited or upset and got him. He walked outside and thought he was leaving he fell or laid down. Or maybe the dog found him out there and tried to help him and grab his arm but couldn't move him. Froze to death

  • @Carapsych June 23, 2024

    The shirt the dog bit through was supposedly soaking wet and left in the police office for a week or more till it dried out. So plenty of time for it to be manipulated or even if not manipulated, it was soaked with water. Maybe that would have washed away any dog saliva that was there

  • @Carapsych June 23, 2024

    What your channel has that I really appreciate is a biased view! I like that you have an opinion and you bring on experts that agree or disagree with you.

  • @debf.21 June 23, 2024

    Done! You guys aren’t seeing all the evidence. Framed!!!! Tried giving your channel another chance.🐢🐢🐢

  • @sherryparis5647 June 23, 2024

    I don't see conspiracy but more like tunnel vision.

  • @Gle7799 June 23, 2024

    Manslaughter dui, witness tampering leave scene of crime

  • @seascape185 June 23, 2024
