Judge Beverly Cannone is in charge of Karen Read's high-profile in Dedham, Massachusetts trial for a second straight year.

An important ruling was made by Judge Beverly Cannone on day 17 of testimony in the retrial of Karen Read. Right after the jury was sent home for the weekend, Cannone announced that she’s not going to penalize the prosecution for entering new evidence.

Karen Read pleaded not guilty to murder charges in the death of Boston police officer John O’Keefe and is facing a retrial after a jury was unable to reach a verdict last year.
