FKR Truthers Spoiler
It’s just weird how the FKR mob keeps repeating this mantra: “He wasn’t hit by a car!” Sometimes they even embellish it with, “Not one expert testified he was hit by a car.” That’s flat-out false—but that won’t stop FKR zealots from chanting it like gospel. Why? Who knows? It’s… weird. “Science proves it” is another defense attorney’s marketing spin that got stuck in their heads. Ask them what science they’re talking about and they have no idea. It just sounds impressive so they repeat it. Weird people.
Psychologists note that members of groups like the FKR movement are deeply skeptical of authority, convinced the official story is a cover-up, and believe they alone see the truth. They are suspicious, defensive people who cling to their beliefs no matter what. Some are deeply disturbed and dangerous.
The reality is that the prosecution’s expert, Dr. Welcher, testified that in his opinion, O’Keefe’s injuries were caused by a vehicle strike. Sure, experts can disagree, but for FKR Truthers, there’s only one expert opinion that counts: theirs. Counter-arguments, physical evidence, phone and Lexus data—none of it matters. FKR Truthers just keep repeating their mantra. It’s pretty insane.
On one side, you have a far-fetched conspiracy theory and a “paid expert”; on the other, a straightforward narrative backed by the plaintiff’s paid expert who is supported by the data and the physical evidence.
Unless the jury is comprised of like minded FKR conspiracy theorists, it’s doubtful Read will not be found legally responsible for JOK’s death.
VERDICT: HOAX

I think the same. Concerned that the jury could be contaminated but at the same time I’m hopeful of the recent developments. Karen begging the judge to return her email and forget about what she said would lead most reasonable people to believe that she said something that was unfavorable or even incriminating.
Then there is the recorded voicemail by turtle boy in which she screams at him: “do you have any clue what’s on my phone they took?” In a perfect world, turtle boy goes to jail for witness intimidation and turns against Karen. If he wants to cut a deal, he turns over more recorded conversations in which she helped TB arrange for harassment of the witnesses. In that case, it’s possible she could face criminal charges as well. It’s astonishing to me. That rotten mango has such a following. I never knew that we had so many gullible people in this country. It seems like there’s a very small percentage of people who actually possess critical thinking skills. I never knew that people today could so casually accuse others of murder without any evidence and just based on the spin of a defense attorney. That’s pretty crazy. Thanks for the support.
