She googled WHAT? | Crime Junkie AF | Forensic Files

the one thing that would convince me without a doubt would be video of some sort of things but in this case
video you brought that up and I was like wait there's a video and you're like well there is and there there isn't so
we can we'll start to get into a little bit of this conspiracy because the video
that we have the video that has been introduced is video from John O'Keefe's house he's got a ring camera and he had
two cameras one was at his front door one was over his driveway and we've got video from over his driveway of Karen
Reed so she wakes up at 4:30 she's calling around at around 507508 she backs out of the driveway and this is
her she's on her way to go to Jennifer mccab they're going to go look for John she backs out and here's where things
get really interesting is because Jon's car is in the driveway she was in the garage she backs out and wouldn't you
know it that passenger side rear tail light comes awfully stinking close if not potentially hits John's
car we will have this video in the source material you like people have analyzed this to death but she backs up
and people will say that you can see her and I can kind of see it you can kind of
see her C just shake just ever so slightly back and forth when it potentially makes contact so when she
like pulls forward and drives drives away that's when you can see on the camera her tail light is broken now the
prosecution specifically lays out in their statements like they even address it they're like she almost comes close
to but does not and then you see her tail light's broken because she broke it when she ran over John the defense says
no that's when her tail light was broken now it would be really easy to solve this let's just see when she came home
that night if it's broken but that video doesn't exist and we don't know why it doesn't exist so
the prosecution the cops have kind of alluded to oh well you know she had access to his ring system on her phone
and on the app maybe she deleted it I could say the same thing that you know anyone who had access to John's phone I
know it was in police custody could have deleted it because they basically said they have all these incidents between
they about 15 incidents between 6:00 p.m. that night and then 6:00 a.m. but they do not have her coming home that's
super frustrating because I'm like it completely destroys the timeline of the prosecution if her tail light is not
broken when she gets home if there could be proof of that it destroys the timeline right if it is broken it
doesn't just destroy the timeline it destroys their whole Theory yeah it destroys the whole Theory but then I'm
also thinking we go back to this it was a blizzard I know out and I know cuz I have the same system at my home that
like if there's like a spider web or like a lot of condensation or Frost or whatever that that technology doesn't
always capture every single motion event that's happening it's super unfortunate
that it doesn't capture this one thing but to your point I want to know like in that app like who can delete stuff is
there like a metadata Trail for that because that right there should be able to tell you like which user of the app
did it just not register it yeah or there's got there's got to be something 24 like how are we not or 2022 when this
is happening well yeah but come on we've got to be able to look at that and well
apparently they're using new technology as it pops up because if you want to pop
to another big thing that people who believe in a conspiracy theory point to is it goes back to Tech
so there is supposedly a search on Jennifer maccabe's phone at 2:27 in the morning 227 is our
before Karen is supposed to have called her and said John didn't come home let's
go look for him at 2:27 there is a search on her phone that says quote hos long to die in
cold they believe that it was supposed to be how long to die in cold why is Jennifer McCabe searching
that at 227
