"description": "Day 12 centers entirely on Sergeant Yuri Bukhenik of the Massachusetts State Police. ADA Hank Brennan's direct examination walked through the investigation chronologically — from the initial call through the Dighton interview of Karen Read, the February excavation at 34 Fairview Road, and bar surveillance tracking Read's alcohol consumption. Prosecution preemptively addressed the Michael Proctor text chain, eliciting Bukhenik's disciplinary findings and his characterization of his thumbs-up acknowledgment as reflexive. On cross, Alan Jackson dismantled the investigation's integrity methodically: Proctor authored or controlled virtually every major investigative action while Bukhenik — his nominal supervisor — conceded he could not know everything Proctor was doing. Jackson established a six-day chain-of-custody gap for O'Keefe's clothing and the complete failure to secure 34 Fairview as a crime scene on January 29th. The cross closed with Canton Police Chief Berkowitz appearing at the scene on February 4th to point out taillight evidence, despite Canton PD having recused itself from the investigation.",
