“Hide, lie, destroy”

Per turtleboy:

“Breaking news - a motion to dismiss for Extraordinary Governmental Misconduct is forthcoming from Karen Read's defense. They paid $13,229 to fly and lodge an expert who was going to review Canton Police DVR system to determine if the Sally Port video shown at trial was intentionally inverted. When the(y) arrived at CPD he found out that the evidence was destroyed.”

“Karen Read's defense team filed a motion today that included new video of Brian Higgins at CPD, which was withheld from them in the first trial. The surveillance video shows Brian Higgins pacing around outside, talking to someone on his phone at 1:34 AM. He NEVER mentioned speaking to anyone on the phone at the trial, or at the state or federal grand jury. Had he done so the defense could've filed a Rule 17 motion for his phone, which would be a lot stronger and less likely to be deemed a "fishing expedition" if they had video of him talking on the phone. He testified at trial that he was back home in West Roxbury by 1:40, and that it took 15-20 minutes to get there. This was all a lie, as was his excuse for being at CPD in the first place. This is a Brady violation.”

Was the video from the Feds? Was there another document dump? Just when you think it can’t get any worse…

EDIT: This video was presumably turned over by Brennan. The filing on this was posted on this page by Manlegend, and is linked below. (Thank you)

It is unconfirmed how long the commonwealth has been in possession of this video. It is most likely true that Lally knew about this video and seen it, never turned it over, and only showed the inverted camera footage of the car when introduced in the middle of trial. (IMO)
