About
C.F. McCarthy's is the Canton bar where John O'Keefe met Karen Read on the evening of January 28, 2022 — the first stop before the Waterfall and 34 Fairview Road. Michael Camerano testified that the couple greeted each other affectionately: "They kissed." A $52.80 tab opened under Read's name, paid with O'Keefe's MasterCard, listed Tito's Vodka; Bukhenik described Read leaving McCarthy's holding a tall cylindrical glass. The bar's surveillance video was introduced in the first trial and authenticated and admitted in the retrial. McCarthy's is the start of the prosecution's alcohol-consumption timeline. Bukhenik testified that the video showed "nine drinks being consumed by the defendant" from Read's arrival at McCarthy's through her departure from the Waterfall. Knowles testified that the estimated blood-alcohol concentration at 12:45 a.m. could range from 0.14% to 0.28%.
