Read, 45, was accused of hitting Boston cop John O'Keefe with her car and leaving him for dead during a snowstorm in Canton, Mass., on January 29, 2022. While the former financial analyst's first trial ended in a hung journey, she was eventually acquitted of murder and manslaughter in June 2025. She alleged in court that she was framed by her former boyfriend's friends at the Boston Police Department, claiming she was the target of a cover-up and that O'Keefe was killed during a fight inside the house.

Prior to her acquittal, Read told Vanity Fair in October 2024, "As scary as a potential conviction is, I will go to jail for something I didn't do before I plea out. I will never give them that win."
