About

Bridget Mihan co-owns the Waterfall Bar and Grill, the Canton establishment where Karen Read and John O'Keefe spent time on the evening of January 28, 2022, before heading to the Albert household. She testified briefly in Trial 2 Day 3 to authenticate Exhibit 22, interior surveillance video from her bar recorded that night, and to establish that she provided that footage to Massachusetts State Police. The defense waived cross-examination.

Key Points

  • Mihan established her ownership stake in the Waterfall Bar and Grill, a small family-owned business located in a mixed condo complex in Canton, laying the foundation for her authentication of the surveillance footage.
  • She authenticated Exhibit 22, the surveillance video from January 28, 2022, confirming it came from her establishment's interior camera system — footage that captures Read and O'Keefe at the bar before they left together at 12:11 am.
  • Mihan testified that she provided the surveillance footage directly to Massachusetts State Police, establishing the chain of custody for the evidence.
