Karen Read Trial: Blood, Bias & BAC – Dr. Garrey Faller’s Testimony
In this pivotal episode of the Karen Read murder retrial, we delve into the expert testimony of Dr. Garrey Faller, former Chief of Pathology at Good Samaritan Medical Center. Dr. Faller provides a comprehensive analysis of Karen Read's blood alcohol content (BAC) on the morning of January 29, 2022. He reveals that Read's BAC was measured at 0.093%, exceeding Massachusetts' legal driving limit of 0.08%, approximately nine hours after she departed from the bar .
Dr. Faller elucidates the hospital's blood testing protocols, emphasizing the use of serum tests and the avoidance of alcohol swabs to prevent contamination. He acknowledges that while the hospital's clinical lab is not accredited for forensic testing, the results are consistent with forensic standards. During cross-examination, the defense probes whether Read's medical conditions, such as anemia and multiple sclerosis, could have influenced the BAC results. Dr. Faller concedes that these conditions were not considered but maintains that they would not significantly affect the test's accuracy .
This testimony is crucial in understanding the prosecution's argument that Read was under the influence when the alleged incident occurred. It also highlights the defense's strategy to challenge the reliability of the BAC results and suggest alternative explanations.
