Epic Fail! Alan Jackson's Cross of Jen McCabe

Epic Fail! Alan Jackson's Cross of Jen McCabe After days of circling, pushing, and stumbling through binders of texts, defense attorney Alan Jackson finally wrapped his cross-examination of Jennifer McCabe — and it did not end the way Karen Read’s team probably hoped. In this episode, we break down the final moments of McCabe’s time on the stand and how what was supposed to be a defense victory turned into a strategic flop. Jackson, clearly trying to frame McCabe as a liar caught in her own contradictions, struggled to land any direct blows. Instead, what we saw was confusion, fumbled documents, and a key witness who, despite heavy fire, never cracked. Jennifer McCabe didn’t just hold her ground — she turned the pressure back on the defense with moments that felt more like a redirect than a takedown. And the jury saw it all. The body language, the tone, the fact that Jackson repeatedly failed to impeach her credibility in any meaningful way — it all compounded into a cross that, by the end, looked more like a concession than a challenge. We also look at the courtroom atmosphere as this unfolded, the prosecution’s subtle strategy in letting the defense unravel, and what this means for Karen Read’s overall narrative. Because if the goal was to shake the star witness, it backfired. And if you’re counting on the conspiracy theory to hold, this wasn’t the way to support it. Tune in for a full breakdown of a cross-examination that started with high stakes — and ended in what can only be described as an epic faceplant. #KarenReadTrial #JenniferMcCabe #AlanJackson #KarenReadDefense #CrossExamination #TrialAnalysis #CourtroomDrama #TrueCrimePodcast #LegalStrategy #HiddenKillersPodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?   Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
