MR. LALLY: And so, Mr. Camerano, again — what's up on the screen, is that what you have before you as page 157?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And you can look at either whether it's the book in front of you or it's easier to see the screen — either. But with reference to what's up on the screen, first bubble — can you indicate to the jury again who it's from and what it says?
MR. CAMERANO: It's from JJ. "How did Cara do, by the way?"
MR. LALLY: And who is Cara?
MR. CAMERANO: I don't know.
MR. LALLY: Fair enough. Now with reference — Miss Gilman, if you could scroll down — and the next bubble — um, I'm sorry. May we take the screen down, please? Miss Gilman, turn on the lights, please. Thank you. May I have just a moment with counsel?
JUDGE CANNONE: Sure.
MR. LALLY: May I approach to retrieve the exhibit?
JUDGE CANNONE: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Just for the record, Your Honor, I would ask at this point to strike whatever — I don't think there was a whole lot done on that page, but whatever that was does not—
JUDGE CANNONE: Yes. It was an "I don't know" answer. So — jury, disregard that last question and answer.
MR. LALLY: Directing your attention, Mr. Camerano — what on 157 before you — is that what's up on the screen now?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And so, my apologies. With regards to this first bubble on page 157, who is it from and what is it?

MR. LALLY: And if you could scroll down to the next, and again who is it from and what does it say?
MR. CAMERANO: From JJ. "Okay. At the driveway with her now. I'll text on my way back."
MR. LALLY: Could that be at the doctor?
MR. CAMERANO: Could be.
MR. LALLY: And just if you could scroll down to the next, and again who was it from and what?
MR. CAMERANO: From me to JJ. "Everything okay?"
MR. LALLY: And if you could scroll down to the next, and again who is it from and what did it say?
MR. CAMERANO: From JJ. "Yes, stupid."
MR. LALLY: Could you scroll down to the next bubble?
MR. CAMERANO: — but yeah. Witness directed back to microphone
MR. LALLY: The next bubble has no text, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And now — the next below that green one, again, who is it from and what does it say?

MR. LALLY: And scroll down to the next. Again, that green bubble — who is it from and what does it say?
MR. CAMERANO: From Johnny. "Want to drop Madeline off and hit the Hillside for a bit?"
MR. LALLY: And what is the Hillside?
MR. CAMERANO: It's a pub.
MR. LALLY: And where is it located?
MR. CAMERANO: In Canton.
MR. LALLY: And Miss Gilman, if you could scroll down again — blue bubble on screen, who is that from and what does it say?
MR. CAMERANO: It's from me to Johnny. "I probably won't get to your house till 5, 5:30."
MR. LALLY: Scroll down again. That green bubble — from who and what does it say?
MR. CAMERANO: From Johnny. "Okay."
MR. LALLY: Scroll down again. And again, the blue bubble on the screen — who is it from?
MR. CAMERANO: From me. "I am leaving in 10."

MR. LALLY: In the time period around — say the weeks leading up to January 28th, 2022 — what if any conversations do you recall having with Mr. O'Keefe in regard to his relationship with Miss Read?
MR. CAMERANO: Just, uh, regular guy conversations.
MR. LALLY: Anything specific that you can recall?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: Now, when you arrived at the house — or, typically, when you would come over to Mr. O'Keefe's house, where is it that you would park?

MR. CAMERANO: I don't know.
MR. LALLY: And where were the girls when the two of you went to C.F. McCarthy's?
MR. CAMERANO: They were in the house.
MR. LALLY: And at the time that you left there and went to C.F. McCarthy's, if anyone else — were there any plans as far as meeting anybody else there?
MR. CAMERANO: We were supposed to meet Karen.
MR. LALLY: Now, prior to leaving the house, what if anything did you or Mr. O'Keefe— O'Keefe do with reference to uh the vehicles that were in the driveway?
MR. CAMERANO: Um, so when we were leaving the house, I was parked in the driveway. John was parked on the left side of the driveway. John asked me to -- I backed up so John could move his car out of the way so Karen could pull her car into the garage because of the snowstorm.
MR. LALLY: I'm sorry, you said because of the what now?
MR. CAMERANO: Snowstorm.
MR. LALLY: And as far as uh the snowstorm was concerned, what if anything did you know uh at that point in regard to that?
MR. CAMERANO: We were supposed to get a lot of snow. I may have -- just one moment. Yes. I'm just trying to remember which is which.
MR. LALLY: Now with the Court's permission, I would ask uh that Miss Gilman be allowed to publish a part of Exhibit 6, which is the driveway of the Ring video.
JUDGE CANNONE: Okay.
MR. LALLY: And if I could ask for uh video number 145. Sorry. If you could pause it like that. Can you recognize what's up on the screen?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And what do you recognize that to be?
MR. CAMERANO: Myself and my daughter.
MR. LALLY: And as far as -- may I approach the witness?
JUDGE CANNONE: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Before you use this -- this is a laser pointer, just press that button. Okay. And Mr. Camerano, using that laser pointer that uh you now have with you, if you could uh direct the jury's attention to where in this video you observe yourself and your daughter. And uh there are two vehicles in this uh sort of frame, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And if you could, using the laser pointer, just describe to the jury whose car is whose and where it is.
MR. CAMERANO: The white car is mine, the SUV is John's.
MR. LALLY: Now as far as um the Ring system that Mr. O'Keefe had at his house at this time, um as far as your knowledge of it, uh what if anything would the two of you do with reference to sort of picking up or dropping off kids in the Ring video?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes, he had a uh camera, so like I'd always wave, give -- you know, I always knew that he was like watching.
MR. LALLY: And do you know how he was watching, if he wasn't home?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes, on his phone.
MR. LALLY: So would that be sort of a running joke between the two of you?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes. [unintelligible]
MR. LALLY: Miss Gilman, if you could just pause it there. Now, Mr. Camerano, are you familiar with Mr. O'Keefe's house?
MR. CAMERANO: We've been there plenty of times.
MR. LALLY: Correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Okay. And with reference to um sort of where you and your daughter sort of exited uh from the screen, what if any sort of entrances to the home were located in that area?
MR. CAMERANO: Two garage doors.
MR. LALLY: And are you familiar with that garage area?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Is that typically how you would enter the house?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And with regard to sort of the condition of the garage, was Mr. O'Keefe particular about that?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes, he was.
MR. LALLY: And how so?
MR. CAMERANO: He always kept things very tight, he was like OCD.
MR. LALLY: And so as far as the garage doors -- and what I mean by garage doors is sort of electronic, up -- you know, up and down -- so there's two garage doors that go up and down, and there's a door, just a single entry door on the left. As far as the left, there was an old classic car, he had a convertible. And then as far as the right door, it was empty. And um, once beyond those sort of bay doors that would go up and down, what if any other entranceway into the garage was there?
MR. CAMERANO: There's a side door.
MR. LALLY: And if you recall, when you were entering uh at that time on the 28th with your daughter, uh how did you enter in?
MR. CAMERANO: We went to the garage door, the electric door.
MR. LALLY: And uh was that something -- um what if anything was uh fixed to those garage doors as far as security?
MR. CAMERANO: Uh, a keypad. We'd have to punch in a key.
MR. LALLY: And uh at the time, or at any time, were you familiar with what that passcode was?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Now when you walk into the garage, uh how is it that you get from the garage to the house?
MR. CAMERANO: Walk into the garage and you walk up three steps and you go into a door.
MR. LALLY: And then once you sort of walk up the three steps and going into the door, what part of the house are you in?
MR. CAMERANO: When you walk in, you're pretty much in the kitchen.
MR. LALLY: And you mentioned that Mr. O'Keefe was meticulous, if not OCD, when it came to the garage. How did that relate to how he kept the house?
MR. CAMERANO: The same, everything was very tidy. When you walked in the door into the house, to the left you put your shoes -- your coats would be hung there.
MR. LALLY: And as far as shoes were concerned, is that something that you wore inside the house or not?
MR. CAMERANO: He'd rather you not.
MR. LALLY: And that was pretty well known to people that had been there before, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Now, Miss Gilman, from the same exhibit, if I could -- um, actually, I'm sorry. Um, with regard to the next video that's not contained on this exhibit, from the same Ring video, I would offer that at this time as the next exhibit.
MR. JACKSON: No objection.
JUDGE CANNONE: Okay. [Exhibit] 49.
PARENTHETICAL: [video plays]
MR. LALLY: Thank you, Your Honor. For the record, this would relate to Exhibit 6 and it's video number 148. And Mr. Camerano, with the Court's permission, may I publish this for the jury?
JUDGE CANNONE: Yes.
MR. LALLY: What was just up on the video, sir -- it's up on the screen as video number 148. Uh, that was what you testified to previously as far as moving the cars, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And why was that again?
MR. CAMERANO: So Karen could pull in the driveway, in the garage.
MR. LALLY: So the expectation from your understanding, Karen Read was coming back to the house of [unintelligible] later on that evening, correct? As shown in this clip from that video on the screen, he was walking to the car. Did you happen to notice how he was dressed?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And as far as what you observe in that video, what you recall from that evening, is that how he was dressed that evening?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And when I say how he was dressed, for sort of the entirety of the time that you were with him?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Um, so it's January 28th, you recall you indicated there was a snowstorm coming, it was cold out, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And with reference to that, was Mr. O'Keefe someone that would typically wear a coat?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: And ever that you can recall?
PARENTHETICAL: [video plays]
MR. CAMERANO: Never that I could recall.
MR. LALLY: And, Your Honor, with the Court's permission, with reference to uh that same Exhibit 6, uh if I could publish uh video number 149.
JUDGE CANNONE: Okay. [unintelligible] And yes, you can. Lights down.
MR. LALLY: So from that video, Mr. Camerano, what is it that you and Mr. O'Keefe are doing in that video?
MR. CAMERANO: Heading down to McCarthy's.
JUDGE CANNONE: Now, do you want the lights on, Mr. Lally?
MR. LALLY: Um, thank you. Now, at some point after you arrived at CF McCarthy's, who if anyone else sort of joins your group?
MR. CAMERANO: Curt.
MR. LALLY: And that'd be Curt Roberts, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And uh how was it that he came to CF McCarthy's that night?
MR. CAMERANO: I texted him.
MR. LALLY: And uh in general terms, what would you call -- sort of what was that text communication like between yourself and Mr. Roberts?
MR. CAMERANO: He said he was busy, he was doing something, then I texted him that he was a -- [unintelligible].
MR. LALLY: And following that text, did Mr. Roberts uh eventually arrive at CF McCarthy's?
MR. CAMERANO: He showed up. Yes.
MR. LALLY: And about how long after you and Mr. O'Keefe arrived did Curt show up?
MR. CAMERANO: I'd like to say maybe an hour.
MR. LALLY: And if you know, uh, at some point you indicated Miss Read appeared at CF McCarthy's as well, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And do you know about how long after yourself and John arrived that Miss Read appeared?
MR. CAMERANO: I don't know exactly.
MR. LALLY: Now with reference to um that establishment of CF McCarthy's, are you aware, or have you become aware, that there was a surveillance video from inside the bar that night?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: You've seen some of that footage, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Your Honor, may I approach?
JUDGE CANNONE: Yes.
MR. LALLY: I want to introduce and admit uh the surveillance video for CF McCarthy's as the next exhibit.
MR. JACKSON: There's none.
JUDGE CANNONE: Thank you. Thank you very much.
MR. LALLY: With the Court's permission, I would seek to publish portions of that video uh for the jury at this time.
JUDGE CANNONE: Okay.
MR. LALLY: And Miss Gilman, if you could, from that video, uh the first clip -- if I could ask you to play from about 7 minutes and 40 seconds, and we'll go through about 9 minutes or so. If you could pause it just now. Do you recognize what's up on the screen, Mr. Camerano?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And what do you recognize that to be specifically?
MR. CAMERANO: CF McCarthy's.
MR. LALLY: And uh yourself and Mr. O'Keefe are not in frame at this time, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: Uh, if you could -- using the laser pointer, uh, before you do so, if you could direct the jury's attention to where it was about -- in reference to the bar -- uh that you and Mr. O'Keefe eventually came to congregate.
MR. CAMERANO: At these seats here.
MR. LALLY: And from this video, uh, from your time there that night or prior occasions, uh can you see sort of where the front door is to the establishment?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Could you direct the jury's attention to where that is? And so what I'm going to ask uh in just a moment is for Miss Gilman to press play, and then what I'd ask you to do is if you could uh just uh direct the jury's attention to when, if at all, you observe yourself and Mr. O'Keefe walking in. Okay, Miss Gilman, if you could -- let me -- Miss Gilman, if you could pause it right there. And just I'm sorry, Mr. Camerano, you're directing with the laser pointer at the screen — if you could just describe what you're directing?
MR. CAMERANO: That is me, that is John.
MR. LALLY: Thanks. If you could just again play this through the 9 minutes — For the record, I think we're at about 9 minutes and 41 seconds or so.
JUDGE CANNONE: Okay.
MR. LALLY: So, with reference to CF McCarthy's, you went there, had some drinks, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Do you recall what you were drinking, or what John was drinking that night?
MR. CAMERANO: Yeah.
MR. LALLY: Is that sort of typical for the two of you?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: You recall, sort of — was that from the tap, or a bottle, or something else?
MR. CAMERANO: From the bottle.
MR. LALLY: And do you recall what type of beer typically you would drink, or Mr. O'Keefe would drink?
MR. CAMERANO: Bud Light.
MR. LALLY: And do you recall specifically that's what you had that night, or that's just what you typically have?
MR. CAMERANO: Typically. I think we had Bud Light.
MR. LALLY: And if you know, approximately how many beers or how many drinks did you have over the course of your time at CF McCarthy's?
MR. CAMERANO: I don't know.
MR. LALLY: As far as yourself versus Mr. O'Keefe, you recall sort of in relation to each other how much you each had to drink?
MR. CAMERANO: Not — um, maybe six beers.
MR. LALLY: And what I'm asking, sir, is it's not like did one of you have ten and one of you had two, or was it sort of commensurate with each other?
MR. CAMERANO: Commensurate. One for one.
MR. LALLY: So essentially you're buying rounds as you go along?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: Now, from your time at CF McCarthy's, how would you describe sort of the tone, or the demeanor within the group that you —
MR. CAMERANO: — were in? Pretty good.
MR. LALLY: So no arguments, no fighting, anything like that?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: And just briefly going back to the clothing that you observed Mr. O'Keefe wearing — in this [video] and that you recall him wearing that night — what if any damage or tears or anything like that did you note in any of his clothing that night?
MR. CAMERANO: I did not see any.
MR. LALLY: Now, Miss Gilman, if I could ask you to take this down and go to the third video. And Miss Gilman, if I could direct your attention to the 6 minute and 10 second mark through the 7 minute mark, and when you get to 6:10 if you can start it. Now, Mr. Camerano, I'm directing your attention to the screen — if you could — — from the parties within your group that night at the bar, if you could just direct the jury's attention to who is who, or who if anyone you recognize.
MR. CAMERANO: — Curt.
MR. LALLY: So in addition to yourself and Mr. O'Keefe, Mr. Roberts has now joined your group, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And Miss Gilman, if you could just play it — if you could pause that, please. Now, with reference to Mr. Roberts, was Curt a beer drinker as well?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: From a bottle that night, same sort of thing that yourself and Mr. O'Keefe were having?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And from where it's paused at this point in the video, does anyone else — do you recognize anyone coming into frame or coming to join your —
MR. CAMERANO: — group? Karen Read.
MR. LALLY: And so from this, is this about the time that she entered the establishment, or came into the bar?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Now, with reference to Miss Read, what if anything do you recall her drinking during your time that you were both at CF McCarthy's that night?
MR. CAMERANO: She was drinking out of a glass.
MR. LALLY: And if you know, what if anything did you observe as far as the color of what was in the glass?
MR. CAMERANO: It was clear.
MR. LALLY: And beyond sort of the clear liquid in the glass, what if anything else did you observe in the glass, as far as a straw or fruit, anything like that?
MR. CAMERANO: Um, a straw, maybe.
MR. LALLY: And what if anything — did you know what was in the —
MR. CAMERANO: — glass? I didn't.
MR. LALLY: As far as you could tell, what was in the glass?
MR. CAMERANO: Vodka.
MR. LALLY: Is that something that Miss Read would typically drink, if you had been out with her on prior occasions?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Now, I'm sorry to keep jumping back and forth, but — Miss Gilman, if you could just hit play again and run — let it run, excuse me, to the seven minute mark. Miss Gilman, from this same third video in this exhibit of CF McCarthy's, if I could ask you to forward to the 14 minute mark, pause it. And if you could, I would ask that you play this from the 14 minute mark until about 14 minutes and 15 seconds — just about 15 seconds. And Miss Gilman, you can take that down. Now, Mr. Camerano, you indicated that your son was at Luce Elementary School for a play of some sort, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: He was, for a little bit.
MR. LALLY: And from there, where if anywhere else did he go that night?
MR. CAMERANO: He went to a friend's house to skate in his backyard.
MR. LALLY: Skate as far as just skating, or what if anything else?
MR. CAMERANO: He was skating.
MR. LALLY: Well, let me ask you this — was he a hockey player?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes, he's a hockey player.
MR. LALLY: Okay, so when you say skating — skating?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes. Makeshift hockey rink in somebody's backyard.
MR. LALLY: Okay. And at some point, with relation to that, what if anything caused you to leave CF McCarthy's on that night?
MR. CAMERANO: I received a — — phone call that my son was hit in the face with a hockey stick and he lost his tooth.
MR. LALLY: And so upon receiving that call, where did you go?
MR. CAMERANO: I went to go get him.
MR. LALLY: And do you recall about what time that was that you left CF McCarthy's to go get him?
MR. CAMERANO: I don't recall.
MR. LALLY: Now, from the group that you were with — as far as yourself, Mr. O'Keefe, Miss Read, and Mr. Roberts — who if anyone left first?
MR. CAMERANO: I believe Curt.
MR. LALLY: And do you recall sort of how it was that Curt left?
MR. CAMERANO: Curt just got up and left.
MR. LALLY: So sort of an Irish goodbye?
MR. CAMERANO: Yeah. Irish goodbye.
MR. LALLY: Is that something he's known for?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And about when was that in relation to when you left?
MR. CAMERANO: Not too soon after — I'm sorry — not too soon before. I left after — I'd like to say 15 minutes after Curt left.
MR. LALLY: Now, with the Court's permission, Your Honor, I'd just like to publish more segments.
JUDGE CANNONE: This is okay.
MR. LALLY: So, Miss Gilman, if I can direct your attention to the fourth video, one down — and if I could ask you to forward it to about 19 minutes and 40 seconds. Miss Gilman, if I could ask you to just pause it there for one second. Now, Mr. Camerano, from looking at this surveillance video here, or from your memory of that night, you see Mr. O'Keefe speaking to another gentleman, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: You know who that person is?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And who is that —
MR. CAMERANO: — person? Sully.
MR. LALLY: And do you know his first name, or anything beyond just "Sully"?
MR. CAMERANO: I don't know his first name.
MR. LALLY: And how is it that you know him?
MR. CAMERANO: Kids play baseball with his son.
MR. LALLY: So in addition to your son playing baseball with Mr. O'Keefe's nephew, Mr. Roberts — does he have a son around the same age?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And this individual Sully, he has a child that plays baseball with the three of your kids?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: Is that someone that you had contacted to meet there, or he just happened to be there?
MR. CAMERANO: He just happened to be there.
MR. LALLY: If you could just hit play again and just run to about the 20 — — minute mark. Now, Miss Gilman, if you could move that forward again to 24 minutes and 10 seconds, and if you could just let this run until about 24 minutes and 20 seconds — so just about 10 — — seconds. And so, Mr. Camerano, did you see yourself in that portion of the video?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And you know what you were doing at that time?
MR. CAMERANO: Leaving.
MR. LALLY: And so prior to leaving, had you sort of settled up a tab or something?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes, I picked up the tab.
MR. LALLY: And then you left and went to get your son, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: Miss Gilman, you can take that down, please. Now, Mr. Camerano, you left there and went to pick up your son, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And following picking up your son, where did you go from there?
MR. CAMERANO: Back to John's house.
MR. LALLY: And why did you go back to John's house?
MR. CAMERANO: My daughter was there — picking her up.
MR. LALLY: You went to pick up the daughter, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And you recall approximately what time that —
MR. CAMERANO: — was? Around 11.
MR. LALLY: And when you came back to the residence at 1 Meadows, you parked on the driveway again, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And did you physically sort of go in the house to pick up your daughter?
MR. CAMERANO: No, I didn't. No, I did not.
MR. LALLY: Now, from the time that you left with Mr. O'Keefe to go to CF McCarthy's versus the time that you came back, anything change as far as position of Mr. O'Keefe's car?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: What if anything did you note as far as the garage doors were concerned, or any damage or anything like that?
MR. CAMERANO: Everything looked normal.
MR. LALLY: And with the Court's permission, I would seek to just publish another video or two from Exhibit — — 6.
JUDGE CANNONE: Okay.
MR. LALLY: And at this time, Miss Gilman, if I could have from the driveway again — video 152. Now, from that video 152 that was just up on screen, Mr. Camerano, could you describe for the jury — excuse me — just sort of what was going on in that video?
MR. CAMERANO: I was picking up my daughter name unintelligible and my son Michael was with me — yes, all three of us.
MR. LALLY: And where did you go from there?
MR. CAMERANO: Home.
MR. LALLY: And when you got home — well, let me ask you this first. During the time that you were at CF McCarthy's, you obviously — at some point you didn't do an Irish goodbye?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: So at some point you indicated to Mr. O'Keefe and/or Miss Read — that you were leaving to go pick up your son?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And what, if any, indication did they give to you as far as where they were going or what were their intentions for the rest of the evening?
MR. CAMERANO: They were heading either across the street or to the Hillside.
MR. LALLY: And when you say "across the street," what if anything was across the street?
MR. CAMERANO: There's another barroom — the Waterfall.
MR. LALLY: Waterfall?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: You familiar with that establishment as well?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Where is that in relation to CF McCarthy's?
MR. CAMERANO: Across the street to the left, if you were coming out of CF McCarthy's.
MR. LALLY: Walking distance, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And you leave, you get your son, you pick up your daughter at John's house, and then you go home, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And when you get home, about how much longer were you up before you went to bed?
MR. CAMERANO: Wasn't up much longer.
MR. CAMERANO: in the kitchen.
MR. LALLY: And when you typically go to bed, what if anything do you do with your phone?
MR. CAMERANO: Put them on the charger.
MR. LALLY: Where's the charger located?
PARENTHETICAL: [Unclear]
MR. LALLY: And following — to the next day — about what time is it that you wake up on the 29th?
MR. CAMERANO: 5:36 a.m.
MR. LALLY: And what was it that woke you up?
MR. CAMERANO: Phones ringing.
MR. LALLY: And how many phones do you have?
MR. CAMERANO: Two.
MR. LALLY: Essentially one personal, one work, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: Were both phones ringing, or one of the other?
MR. CAMERANO: One phone at that time.
MR. LALLY: Was that your work or your personal?
MR. CAMERANO: My personal phone.
MR. LALLY: And you get up, you hear that, you look at your phone — what if anything do you see on the screen?
MR. CAMERANO: I see a lot of missed calls. A bunch of missed calls from Karen, and missed calls from my wife's work.
MR. LALLY: And when you say missed calls, we're talking about one call, several calls?
MR. CAMERANO: Several calls.
MR. LALLY: Any voicemails that you recall associated with those calls?
MR. CAMERANO: I don't recall.
MR. LALLY: So based on making that observation of the missed calls, what do you do?
MR. CAMERANO: I pick up the phone and call my wife.
MR. LALLY: And what if anything did you learn from your wife?
MR. CAMERANO: My wife said to me that, um, John —
JUDGE CANNONE: Sustained. Approach.
MR. LALLY: So Mr. Camerano, you call your wife, and what if anything — in general — does she tell you?
MR. CAMERANO: She tells me that John didn't come home last night.
MR. LALLY: And she's still at work at this point, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: Did she indicate to you how she came to find that out?
MR. CAMERANO: She just — um — she said she got phone calls from Karen.
PARENTHETICAL: [gap in captions — approx. 2 min.]
MR. LALLY: information, what is it that you do next?
MR. LALLY: And then based on that, you have a conversation with your wife about John's niece and nephew, is that right?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes. My wife says to me, "Go get Kay. Kay is home."
MR. LALLY: So at that time your wife tells you that Kay is home at Meadows by herself?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And so based on that —
MR. CAMERANO: I realized that Kay's home alone, so I throw some clothes on, go out to the car, clean the car off real quick, and get in the car and go.
MR. LALLY: When you say "clean the car off real quick," what if anything did you have to clean off?
MR. CAMERANO: I cleaned the snow off the front windshield.
MR. LALLY: And again, you drive over to John's house to get Kay, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And when you get there, pulling in the driveway as well?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And when you get to John's house and you pull in the driveway, what if anything did you observe about the condition of the garage doors?
MR. CAMERANO: When I pulled in, I could tell the garage door was open — left open.
MR. LALLY: Which one — the one to the right or the left?
MR. CAMERANO: The one to the right.
MR. LALLY: And you go inside that door?
MR. CAMERANO: I do.
MR. LALLY: What if anything did you do once you went inside?
MR. CAMERANO: Once I went inside, I saw Kaylee. I asked Kay to get whatever she needed and to come and get in the car. While she was doing that, I started clearing some snow. I thought maybe snow hit the sensors so that the door couldn't go down.
MR. LALLY: And so you start clearing the snow with the shovel?
MR. CAMERANO: With the shovel that was in the garage.
MR. LALLY: Yes. And after you had cleared some of the snow with the shovel, what did you do with regard to the doors at that point?
MR. CAMERANO: I tried to put them down. It wouldn't go down. Then I asked Kay, I think, to re-enter the code to see if she could get the doors to go down, but the door would not go down.
MR. LALLY: And at some point, how did you get the —
MR. CAMERANO: I manually — there's a red rope — I manually pulled that, shut the door, locked the doors. There are two side locks on the garage door, and I went out through the side garage door.
MR. LALLY: Now, when you arrived at the residence and you pulled into the driveway, do you recall how many vehicles were in the driveway when you got there?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And how many?
MR. CAMERANO: Two.
MR. LALLY: And whose vehicles were those?
MR. CAMERANO: John's and Karen's.
MR. LALLY: And John's vehicle — where was that in relation to the last time that you saw it when you picked up your daughter?
MR. CAMERANO: Same spot.
MR. LALLY: And as far as the defendant Miss Read's vehicle, where was that in relation to the garage or in relation to the driveway?
MR. CAMERANO: It was pulled in on the left side, all the way in, so in the area of the garage door that you were just speaking of.
MR. LALLY: Correct. And at that time, did you look at the vehicle or touch the vehicle in any way?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: Better to say that your focus was on the garage door and the fact that it was open, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And why was that? Maybe self-evident, but why was your focus on —
MR. CAMERANO: Because I figured John would go crazy when he came home and all the snow was in his garage.
MR. LALLY: Now, at any point in time when you initially got the call from your wife, did you yourself reach out to John at any point?
MR. CAMERANO: I did not.
MR. LALLY: If I may, I would just seek to publish just a few more videos from Exhibit 6, the driveway ring.
JUDGE CANNONE: Okay.
MR. LALLY: And Miss Gilman, if I could have from those — first starting with video 155, and essentially going through 158. And Mr. Camerano, do you recognize what's up on screen?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
PARENTHETICAL: [video plays]
MR. LALLY: Miss Gilman, if you could play the next video — 156 —
PARENTHETICAL: [unclear]
MR. LALLY: Next video, 157.
PARENTHETICAL: [video plays]
MR. LALLY: Last thing — Miss Gilman — video 158. So, Mr. Camerano, what was just in those last four videos that were played before the jury? Is that essentially the process that you were describing, as far as yourself and Kay trying to get the garage door down?
MR. LALLY: Mr. Camerano, is this sort of when you're pulling in to get Kaylee?
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: Using the laser pointer — if you could just direct the jury's attention to where you observe Miss Read's vehicle, and is that essentially — from what you observe there — that's where it was the entirety of the time that you were there?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: So nobody else came to the home during the time that you were there to pick up Kay and clear the snow from the garage?
MR. CAMERANO: No.
MR. LALLY: If you could just run —
MR. CAMERANO: Correct.
MR. LALLY: And so you leave from there and go back to your house, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: And so where does — where does sort of you and Kay go once you get inside?
MR. CAMERANO: We go into the house. We're in the kitchen in my house and I get my daughter up.
MR. LALLY: And your daughter then sort of hangs out with Kay for a period of time, correct?
MR. CAMERANO: They go downstairs and they were hanging out.
MR. LALLY: And at some point in time — How does Kay leave your house, or where did she go?
MR. CAMERANO: I take Kay home.
MR. LALLY: And why is it that you take Kay home? About what time is it, if you know?
MR. CAMERANO: I don't know what time. Paul had called me.
MR. LALLY: By Paul — who do you mean by Paul?
MR. CAMERANO: O'Keefe. John's brother.
MR. LALLY: And he informed you that John had passed?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: So you took Kay to the house on Meadows to be with the family, is that correct?
MR. CAMERANO: Yes.
MR. LALLY: Thank you very much, sir.
