Karen Read's defense team filed a motion to dismiss two of the three charges against her, including second-degree murder and leaving the scene of a crash causing death. They argued that the jury had unanimously agreed to acquit her of these charges before the judge declared a mistrial. The defense contends that retrying these charges would constitute double jeopardy. However, prosecutors have opposed the motion, stating that the jury did not reach formal verdicts and that any internal deliberations are legally irrelevant unless they result in official verdicts.
A post-trial motion to dismiss charges is a legal request made by the defense after a trial concludes, asking the court to drop specific charges against the defendant. This motion can be based on various grounds, such as claims of legal errors during the trial, lack of evidence, or issues like double jeopardy. The defense argues that, due to these reasons, the charges should not be retried. The prosecution typically responds with arguments as to why the charges should remain and be retried.
