Day 23 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 29, 2025. Judge Cannone ruled against allowing the defense to question Dr. Welcher further about Trooper Paul and Dr. Irini Scordi-Bello. The definition of "rely" and its implications in questioning witnesses were discussed. Dr. Welcher remained on the stand for the duration of the half-day session. The defense was allowed to cross-examine the Commonwealth's new accident reconstruction expert about what they relied on from the previous expert, but not necessarily all of their opinions. The defense would have to call Trooper Paul themselves.
Dr. Welcher was questioned about the suspension system and height variance of the Lexus were discussed, the 3D modeling process, and about the glass on the bumper that the expert's assumptions was that it was inclusive. Cross-examination concluded after the morning break.
The Commonwealth rested its case, and the Defense will argue their motion to dismiss on Day 24 and call their first witness, their tech expert, Matthew DiSogra.
