"description": "Day 27 centered on two defense witnesses. Brian Loughran, a Canton DPW snowplow driver with 20 years of experience, testified that he made multiple passes of Fairview Road in the early hours of January 29, 2022, saw no body on the Albert front lawn, and observed an unusual Ford Edge parked near the flagpole around 3:30 a.m. — a vehicle the Alberts had never before parked out front. ADA Brennan's cross and two rounds of recross attacked Loughran's credibility through documented timeline inconsistencies across four separate accounts and built a bias narrative suggesting pro-defense bloggers harassed Loughran before Trial 1, then embraced him after his favorable testimony. Defense redirects framed the inconsistencies as arithmetic error and established that Loughran's earliest statement predated any blogger contact by over a year. Karina Kolokithas, a Canton pharmacist, testified to spending approximately 50 minutes face-to-face with Karen Read at the Waterfall bar, observing no signs of impairment, and witnessing an affectionate forehead kiss from O'Keefe. She also described Jennifer McCabe urging Read to come with her as the group left — a detail relevant to the defense's theory about events at 34 Fairview. Brennan's brief cross of Kolokithas focused on humanizing O'Keefe and confirming Read was walking to the driver's side as the couple departed.",
