[0:00] They wanted to know as specifically as I could remember what the glass looked like. [0:05] It was the glass I had been drinking out of. [0:07] We can see it on surveillance. [0:09] I'm on the couch looking up to them, and they're standing, [0:11] and then Proctor keeps kind of going towards my parents' fireplace behind him [0:17] and texting on his phone. [0:18] That's when you whack off on her when she's asleep. [0:20] Then tell her one way or another you will spray a rope on her. [0:23] They worried me. [0:24] They were imposing. [0:26] My parents asked if they would put masks on, [0:28] as my mother had stage 3 cancer. [0:31] They asked, and they wouldn't. [0:33] They asked him to sit down. [0:34] They wouldn't. [0:35] They said we're all set. [0:36] Like it was an option. [0:38] We are continuing with the transcript obtained via FOIA request [0:41] for the interview between Karen Reed and Gretchen Voss. [0:45] Old Emily C's reading the entire thing, and she's doing a great job. [0:48] We'll link down below to that. [0:50] But what we're focusing on here is that initial contact by Yoruba Connick [0:54] and Michael Proctor with regard to the investigation. [0:57] We're going to see some critical information, [1:00] especially the things that they missed. [1:01] Let's watch. [1:02] It was hostile right off the bat. [1:05] I think it was Buchananick. [1:07] This is happening in the foyer, and I'm on the couch. [1:10] My mother got me a blanket and plugged in a heating pad. [1:14] I'm still in the clothes from the night before, [1:16] and my dad is greeting them in the garage entrance to the house. [1:24] And my parents say, do you want a coffee? [1:27] You want to sit down? [1:28] They said, no, we don't want to sit. [1:31] This is at about 3, 3.15. [1:33] As soon as they arrive, they say that the Dighton police are right behind them, [1:38] and they are calling for a tow truck. [1:40] So this is before the police approached me at all. [1:45] There's already orchestration to get a tow truck. [1:49] My dad offers to the Dighton cops, do you want to come in? [1:53] And they said, no, we're just facilitating state police, [1:58] and we're getting a tow yard, which was nearby to the police station. [2:02] So they never came in, but it was already happening. [2:04] I hadn't even been spoken to by anyone other than get her in the back of the car at Fairview [2:11] and keep her warm. [2:12] Karen's referring to the fact that the cops only spoke to her briefly at 34 Fairview, [2:16] unrelated really to the investigation. [2:19] And now Yuri Bukonik and Michael Proctor are supposed to be investigating, [2:24] but they're not really asking any questions as to what could have happened. [2:27] Their only concern is her drinking. [2:29] They questioned me for about 20 minutes. [2:31] It was brief. [2:34] They asked what I was drinking, [2:36] and the most detailed questioning was surrounding what kind of glass I was drinking out of. [2:41] They asked me, can you find something online that looks like that glass? [2:46] Heaven forbid these two dupes actually did their own research. [2:50] I said it was cylindrical and like a vase, like a taller, skinnier version of that. [2:57] But they asked what the day had been like, [2:59] and I went through it quickly about the Dunkin' Donuts and then meeting him at McCarthy's. [3:04] They were laser focused on what I was drinking and what the container of that alcohol was. [3:14] And then could I have done a three-point turn? [3:17] They did not ask me if John went into that house or what I saw. [3:22] I was not asked what I saw John do, if I saw him enter the house or if we were arguing. [3:32] Nothing. [3:33] Just mainly around the alcohol, my consumption, and what I was drinking out of. [3:39] You could tell straight away that these two dopes only cared about trying to pin this on Karen Reed [3:44] and did not care at all about potentially finding the real killer. [3:48] Brian Higgins. [3:49] Or anyone else that had a chance of killing John O'Keefe based upon his injuries. [3:54] And we still cannot conclusively prove, even based upon Karen's own representations, [4:00] that John O'Keefe actually entered that house before Brian Higgins attacked him. [4:04] Ms. Reed was reluctant to attend the party for several reasons, [4:07] including that she was unsure whether they were at the correct location. [4:10] She was also very reluctant to go because Brian Higgins was probably there. [4:15] And whether they were even welcome to the late night party. [4:18] Mr. O'Keefe got out of Ms. Reed's SUV and indicated that he would check out the party and report back to her. [4:23] We arrive at 34 Fairview. [4:25] Did you pull into the driveway? [4:26] No, I pulled at the foot of the driveway. [4:28] It didn't look like there was any soiree going on. [4:32] Karen Reed gave two public statements with regard to what occurred when she dropped John off. [4:36] We have the HBO interview as well as a 2020 interview. [4:40] Let's watch. [4:41] It didn't look inviting. [4:43] The outside was dark and I didn't see any familiar looking vehicles. [4:47] I said, go chat, let me know, and I'll follow you behind. [4:51] And I said, John, can you make sure we're welcome? [4:54] He said, I'll run in. [4:55] It's snowing. [4:56] It's windy. [4:57] So I drop him off. [4:59] He goes up the driveway. [5:00] Listen closely to how Karen describes John's potential entry in the house in both interviews. [5:05] Mr. O'Keefe walked to the front door, garage door area of the house and entered one of the two doors. [5:11] And he walked up the driveway and John always walked, kind of skipped and walked at the same time. [5:15] He's always in a rush and approaches the side door. [5:18] And as I see him approach the door, I look down at my phone. [5:21] I cue up a song. [5:22] In the ABC interview, Karen admits she never saw John go into the house. [5:26] In fact, she says once she got to the doorway, she looks down at her phone, puts on some music and checks some emails. [5:32] Just start browsing through missed text messages and a couple emails. [5:36] I probably waited about a full minute and I look back at the door. [5:39] I would have expected him to be either walking back to me or calling me. [5:44] And right there, she admits credibly she never saw John go into the house. [5:48] That, yeah, we're here. [5:49] And entered one of the two doors. [5:51] And I saw him reach the breezeway door, which is the second, the side front door. [5:56] This is the HBO documentary. [5:58] And he opened the door and went to walk in. [6:00] He opened the door and went to walk in. [6:02] She's not conclusive that John actually entered the house. [6:05] And this is very critical. [6:06] The breezeway had two doors. [6:08] One going into the house and one going into the garage. [6:11] Garage. [6:11] The entrance from the breezeway into the house has two doors. [6:15] John most likely opened that first door and then knocked. [6:18] And that's when old Higgy Bear attacked. [6:20] He either was waiting in his girly jeep right in front of the garage or standing outside of it. [6:25] But that's when the attack most likely occurred. [6:28] And despite alleging that John went into the house in her complaint, in both of her interviews, [6:33] she is not certain that John actually went in. [6:36] And entered one of the two doors. [6:37] And as I see him approach the door, I look down at my phone. [6:41] A period of time passed without any word from Mr. O'Keefe. [6:43] Ms. Reed, who was still hesitant to join, presumed that Mr. O'Keefe intended to stay. [6:48] And therefore, she left to go home without him. [6:50] I waited probably a minute and he doesn't come. [6:53] My ex-wife never had that problem. [6:55] And it only took like two or three minutes for me to be irritated. [6:59] Did you kill John O'Keefe? [7:00] I did not kill John O'Keefe. [7:03] Despite our differences as to exactly how and where Brian Higgins killed John O'Keefe, [7:07] we all are on the same team and we all believe this one fact. [7:11] Karen Reed had nothing to do with the murder of John O'Keefe. [7:14] They didn't ask. [7:16] I was just answering their questions. [7:18] David had told me not to say anything. [7:21] But they told me when I was arrested months later, [7:24] if you love John and you care at all about him, [7:27] we're just trying to help find out what happened to John. [7:30] It was mainly Buchanek questioning me. [7:36] Michael Proctor kept kind of turning away from the circle at the coffee table [7:41] and texting on his phone. [7:44] Waiting to lock this whack job up. [7:45] He was on his phone the entire time to the point that for the first month or so, [7:52] I thought Buchanek had the lead on this case and Proctor was the more junior. [7:58] She's a whack job. [7:59] C-U-N-T. [8:00] Objection. [8:01] So don't spell it. [8:02] These are your words, Trooper Proctor? [8:04] Yes, Your Honor. [8:05] Go ahead and say them. [8:06] That was their demeanor. [8:07] Buchanek seemed more militant. [8:09] He was built better and Proctor seemed doughy and sheepish. [8:16] And he was on his phone the whole time texting. [8:19] So now I come to realize it's actually the exact opposite based on the police reporting [8:27] and who's taking the reins and all that heavy lifting. [8:29] They had asked me who was with me at McCarthy's and I said, Mike Camerano, I think it was Proctor, [8:40] who said, do you have his number? [8:42] I said, I don't know it, but I'll get it. [8:44] Once again, these dopey troopers are making Karen do all the work. [8:48] So I took my phone and opened it and I think that was when they asked if I could find a picture [8:53] of what the glass looked like. [8:55] So I gave them Mike Camerano's phone number. [8:59] Mike was not in the Albert McCabe circle at all. [9:03] The kids went to a private school. [9:06] I gave them his number and I Googled and showed them a photo of a cocktail glass. [9:11] But they wanted to know as specifically as I could remember what the glass looked like. [9:17] It was the glass I had been drinking out of. [9:19] We can see it on surveillance. [9:21] I didn't know because I didn't walk out at the exact same time as him. [9:25] But when John walked out of the waterfall, he had my glass. [9:29] My best guess knowing John is that he's cheap and didn't want to leave it. [9:35] He's very cheap, frugal. [9:38] It's my nature to order a drink and then start talking and the glass just gets watered down. [9:43] So I could see John saying that. [9:46] And it's a cop thing. [9:47] We've been going to cop bars for two years where you don't have to worry about a DUI [9:54] and you could take a drink with you. [9:56] It's a whole different set of rules. [9:59] But John walked out with my drink. [10:02] He keeps turning away. [10:03] So we were squared off. [10:05] I'm on the couch looking up to them and they're standing. [10:08] And then Proctor, who's to the right, keeps kind of going towards my parents' fireplace behind him [10:15] and texting on his phone. [10:16] That's when you whack off on her when she's asleep. [10:19] Then tell her one way or another you will spray a rope on her. [10:22] But he didn't say much. [10:24] Because then they say they want to take my phone. [10:26] And I said, well, do you have a warrant? [10:28] And they said they don't need a warrant. [10:30] David explained to me, they can seize your property pursuant to this crime. [10:35] I didn't want to give it up. [10:37] I was waiting to engage with David again. [10:40] I had already called him. [10:41] And Buchanik said they can take my phone. [10:44] I still had it in my hand. [10:46] And he just took it out of my hand. [10:48] Then they said they were going to tow my car. [10:51] I said I have personal things in there. [10:53] I had my winter coat. [10:56] And I packed a bag from John's house with essentials. [11:00] And they said I can't get anything out of the car. [11:03] They asked for the key and said if I don't give them the key, they'll break into it. [11:07] We weren't resisting. [11:08] We were just wondering what we have to turn over to these guys. [11:12] We gave them the car keys. [11:14] They towed the car. [11:15] And they were gone. [11:16] David said around 4.18. [11:19] My parents have a surveillance camera over their driveway. [11:22] And the car gets put up on a flatbed at 4.12. [11:26] Then David and I talk a lot. [11:28] I assumed an arrest was imminent. [11:31] They have my phone and my car. [11:34] David probably educated me along the way. [11:37] And we talked a lot. [11:38] I stayed for about three days and three nights at my parents'. [11:43] I'm sleeping. [11:45] I just want to be near one of them at all times. [11:48] I slept on the couch the three nights I was there. [11:51] My dad or mom took turns sleeping on the other one. [11:56] I called my primary care's office for something to help me sleep. [12:00] By the third day, I could see it wearing on my parents'. [12:04] I was frustrated, scared, and grieving. [12:08] It was almost like a breakup now. [12:10] I hadn't seen John in two or three days and I just felt beside myself. [12:14] I had to get a new phone. [12:16] Everything was on there. [12:17] Bills, passwords, everything. [12:19] So here I am afraid and trying to talk to Apple and Verizon and Fidelity and Bentley. [12:27] And it was just a lot. [12:28] By the third day, I thought, I've got to go to my house where whatever I'm going through, [12:32] I can go through it alone. [12:34] I don't have to wear it on my sleeve for my parents to experience as well. [12:37] There will come a time when every single one of Karen Reed's lawsuits will demand damages as a result of any injury she sustained. [12:47] We're just beginning to hear the psychological trauma that she is being put through along with her parents. [12:53] And when that time comes to calculate all the damages she suffered as a result of all of these faulty investigations, [13:02] it will be in the millions and it's certainly worth it. [13:05] But no matter what any of these juries give her, we will never, ever stop producing these videos until the real killer, [13:13] Brian Higgins, is brought to justice.
