====Medical and forensic experts====
* Justin Rice was the emergency room doctor who treated O'Keefe at Good Samaritan Hospital. According to him, O’Keefe was unresponsive, intubated, hypothermic, and in cardiac arrest with no pulse. Rice also ordered the blood alcohol test on Read, who had been brought to the hospital under a "Section 12" order. She had a blood alcohol content of 0.093%, over the legal limit of 0.08%.<ref name="AutoBW-69"/>
* Nicholas Roberts, Member of the Massachusetts Office of Alcohol Testing at Massachusetts State Police Crime Lab, discussed retrograde testing, a method to used to estimate a person's blood alcohol level at an earlier time. Using 12:45 a.m. as the estimated time of the last drink consumed, Roberts estimated her BAC would have been between 0.135% and 0.292%. During cross-examination, the accuracy of the estimation method was questioned, noting that if that if Read continued to drink after 12:45 a.m. the results would be inaccurate.<ref name="AutoBW-69">{{cite news |last1=Schooley |first1=Matt |last2=Rex |first2=Kristina |title=What was Karen Read's blood alcohol level on the night John O'Keefe died?
