Now with the Karen Read case done, Aidan Kearney is next to fight off the corruption in the Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office. Aidan Kearney, aka Turtleboy, is facing federal witness intimidation charges and 105 years in prison for going up to the people who were inside 34 Fairview Road the night John O’Keeffe was murdered.
Aidan Kearney Shouldn’t Be Charged With Witness Intimidation
Journalism is different now than it was in past murder cases like Scott Peterson, Casey Anthony, but not too long ago in the Gabby Petito murder, people were outside Brian Laundrie’s parents’ house. Not one person in the media or anyone who wasn’t media got indicted for witness intimidation.
Other journalists weren’t charged for standing outside Scott Peterson’s House
The people outside the homes of Scott Peterson, O.J. Simpson, and Brian Laundrie didn’t get charged because they were actually guilty of murder. What Aidan did was expose the corruption of the police and people who know everyone in a tight-knit community. The people in Canton feel protected by the fellow police, State Police, and District Attorney’s office. Aidan went to Jennifer McCabe’s house, rang her doorbell, and got charged with felony witness intimidation. WCVB went to the home of Michael Morrissey after the verdict and knocked on his door. They haven’t been charged with witness intimidation.

Aidan did a rolling rally in the summer of 2023 and went to the new home of retired officer Brian Albert. He was charged with felony witness intimidation of the people outside Brian Laundrie’s house, demanding answers on where Gabby Petito was never charged with witness intimidation. But going to the people’s houses or places of business that were in the house of a Boston Police officer. Where another Boston Police officer, John O’Keeffe, died, you get charged with witness intimidation. See how that doesn’t make sense? The trolls hate when you give those examples, but it’s just stating a fact.

Aidan had a hearing this week where his lawyers, Tim Bradil and Mark Bederow. They are seeking to make the text messages that are impounded public. Those were exchanged between fired state trooper Michael Proctor and the District Attorney, among others. They believe that releasing these texts will expose the extent of corruption within the county and the state.
Judge Michael Doolin said he would give two weeks for a response. Regardless, these charges are ridiculous when it’s just a journalist doing his job.
