One of the more sensational court cases in recent years gets the full ID treatment, with a five-part true-crime docuseries airing over three nights (continuing Tuesday and Wednesday). The series follows the investigation into the January 2022 death of Boston police officer John O’Keefe, his body found on a fellow officer’s lawn, with his girlfriend Karen Read accused of backing into him with her SUV and leaving him to die. Her defense of a cover-up was revealed in a 2024 court case that ended in a mistrial, with a retrial scheduled for this spring. The series boasts “unprecedented access” to Read and her legal team as well as other key figures involved in the case.
