E25 / SOURCE-LINKED RECORD

Discovery, 911 call, and attempted aid

The women found O'Keefe on the lawn, and the jury heard the ensuing emergency call.

What the record shows

Roberts and McCabe described Read calling out that she saw O'Keefe, leaving the vehicle, and approaching him. The women described attempts to assist him.

McCabe's 911 call was played in court. She reported an unresponsive man in the snow. Responders arrived and O'Keefe was transported to a hospital.

Limits and disputed context

The discovery and response do not, on their own, identify how the injuries occurred or what anyone knew beforehand. The linked reporting is not a complete emergency-services log.
