Its a figure of speech Michael Proctor addresses texts, Karen Read investigation in ABC interview
Michael Proctor, the former State Police trooper, defended his investigation into the death of Officer John O’Keefe during an ABC interview following Karen Read's acquittal on murder charges. Proctor asserted that he and his team conducted the investigation properly, despite criticisms regarding their connections to the involved parties. He expressed regret over the public perception of a conspiracy but stated he wouldn't change his approach to the investigation. Read was found not guilty of second-degree murder but guilty of operating under the influence, resulting in a standard sentence of probation. Proctor denied any wrongdoing, including claims of planting evidence, and stressed that no corruption occurred in this case.
He noted that not one piece of evidence suggested a cover-up or conspiracy. Proctor's comments come against a backdrop of heightened scrutiny over police practices in Boston. The interview has further fueled discussions about the integrity of the investigation and the subsequent trial outcomes.
