Residents of Canton, Massachusetts are looking forward to restoring peace in the town that's been divided by the high-profile case.
The Boston-area woman was accused of killing her police officer boyfriend in 2022. The jury was dismissed for the weekend and will resume on Monday.
It took eight weeks and dozens of witnesses, but on Friday, Karen Read's retrial shifted to its most critical phase: jury deliberations.
