E39 / SOURCE-LINKED RECORD

Read's public account of the side entrance

Read described watching O'Keefe approach a side entrance before looking at her phone.

What the record shows

The reported August 2023 Nightline account described a driveway approach, attention turning to her phone, waiting, and then leaving.

The account is a public interview rather than sworn testimony.

Limits and disputed context

Approaching a door and entering a house are not the same recorded observation. This entry does not infer an unseen movement from the interview.
