Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, his girlfriend Karen Read and a group of other friends, including fellow officers, went out drinking at C.F. McCarthy's bar in Canton, Massachusetts at around 9 p.m. A major snowstorm had begun.

Read, accused of leaving John O’Keefe to die in a 2022 snowstorm after hitting him with her car, was acquitted of both second-degree murder and leaving the scene of an accident causing death.
