Day 6 of the Karen Read trial kicks off today with a defense cross examination of the prosecution’s expert witness on data forensics, who is testifying about the timing of the infamous text in the case, “hos long to die in cold.”

Read, 45, of Mansfield, faces a retrial on charges of second-degree murder, manslaughter while operating a motor vehicle under the influence, and leaving the scene of an accident causing death.

Prosecutors say that Read backed her Lexus SUV into her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe, at up to 24 mph in the early morning hours of Jan. 29, 2022, leaving him to freeze and die. She was tried last year but that ended in mistrial.

The “hos long to die in cold” search on Google  was performed by Jennifer McCabe, who has yet to take the stand. Both the prosecution and defense agree that she made the search on the morning that O’Keefe died, but at what time is hotly contested.

On Monday, jurors heard from a prosecution expert witness named Ian Whiffin, who works for the company Cellebrite that is an industry standard for digital forensics analysis.

Prosecutors say that McCabe actually performed the search a little after 6:20 a.m. at the request of Read. Whiffin’s testimony backs that theory.

Whiffin told the jury on Tuesday that the Safari tab on McCabe’s iPhone was used at 2:27 a.m. to look at Hockomock Sports, a local high school athletics website, to check up on her daughter’s hockey scores before bed. Whiffin then said that the tab was never closed and was reaccessed when McCabe took out her phone much later in the morning.
