Why We All Need to Keep a Close Eye on Alan Jackson's Newest Case: The Pepperdine 4.
Truth honors victims, and Alan Jackson doesn't always play with clean hands.
If you’ve been following the Tuesday Gazette for a while now, you’re probably quite familiar with my concerns regarding how Los Angeles Defense Attorney Alan Jackson operates to win (or attempt winning at seemingly all costs) his cases.
The truth is…
A defense attorney with a near 100% success rate isn’t coming out on top simply because he is very good at choosing innocent clients…
It’s because he’s willing to play dirty at the expense of victims. Muddying the waters of transparency and obsessing over public optics seems to be the mode of operation he works in to dominate.
His past behaviors include things like:
Demeaning a sexual assault victim on the stand in Harvey Weinstein’s trial back in 2022.
Violating court orders twice in the Karen Read Trial by not handing over all discovery like payments and conversations with a neutral party. Once the judge became aware of the lack in transparency, she gave a direct order to hand everything over. Conveniently, about 100 texts were “deleted” by both Alan Jackson and the ‘neutral’ party, Daniel Wolfe.
At one point, Alan Jackson even requested Wolfe to use the encrypted text app, Signal, for their communications. The defense team also had to go back and ‘correct’ a new motion they had filed making false claims about their relations with the company, ARCCA.
Jackson blatantly boasting about the ‘damage’ he has done to witness Jen McCabe in court. The judge even asked him to repeat his comment to make sure she heard his statement accurately.
Disseminating non-public information using manipulation tactics. He also made efforts to schmooze with journalists.
(Note: To my awareness, Journalist Gretchen Voss did not participate in any behaviors that crossed ethical journalistic standards despite being approached with Alan Jackson’s scheming. She has maintained her truth-seeking duties with integrity.)
Questionable relations with his client Karen Read. Alan Jackson is currently married to another attorney, but many people have side-eyed the ‘closeness’ and flirtation of him and the former murder defendant.

Alan Jackson’s connections with ‘Turtleboy’, the man who is charged with 16 felonies for tormenting and intimidating witnesses in Karen Read’s trial. Turtleboy (aka Aidan Kearney) has referred to the victim’s mother as a “maggot” because she doesn’t believe in the defense team’s conspiracy narrative. He has even boasted about how it ‘makes him so hard’ when people tell him to stop being mean to the victim’s family.
Here’s a few other examples of Aidan’s public statements addressing witnesses in the murder trial that was pending at the time…
The Commonwealth called out Jackson’s connections with Aidan Kearney.
You can read the entire motion below if you’d like. It’s very interesting.
Vanity Fair’s articles covering the Karen Read Case were smothered with disinformation and misleading narratives. The long-form, 2-part puff piece that came out lacked basic inculpatory details of the murder defendant’s case, while also spreading disinformation like claims of ‘jury tampering’. The writer, Julie Miller, seems to be operating more as a PR-writer than a truth-teller.
Karen Read and her defense team were providing her with the information that she reported on. Karen said two nice things about the victim, her boyfriend at the time, John O’Keefe. (#1 She thought he was cute when she met him. #2 He did things around the house for her), but spent most of her efforts highlighting herself while passive aggressively disparaging her deceased boyfriend.
The writer even misled readers regarding important details over the 2:27 controversy. The writer has still yet to respond to my emails, nor has she corrected her misinformation. You can find my articles on this HERE and HERE.
(Vanity Fair also did a whole salute article to Alan Jackson after trial 2 ended with a posed glamour shot of him, which was quickly promoted onto his business website.)
Publicly denying that the federal investigation into the investigation of John O’Keefe’s death is closed despite that it’s been confirmed multiple times. He needs the public to disregard that there were zero findings of anyone conspiring to frame his drunk driving client, Karen Read.
WHAT’S NEXT:
As you can imagine, many people are concerned about how the victims in his new case (four young Pepperdine students killed by a driver on PCH) will be treated by Alan Jackson’s defense efforts.
Now, let’s be clear…
The goal is not to be pro-prosecution.
It’s to be victim-aware, leading with sensitivity, and educating with facts so the public can analyze the situation appropriately.
An honest and fair trial honors both parties, and we should always encourage a healthy legal process.
(Hello 6th Amendment).
And the best way to ensure that these victims, witnesses, and loved ones are not abused online by sensationalized tabloid click-artists operating as a platform for fuzzy optics is to simply not engage in the rumor parties.
⭐️Stay tuned for the next article where I introduce you to the case of Fraser Bohm, as well as upcoming (date TBD) interview with those close to the victims as we discuss their legacies left behind, as well as the close details of the pending trial.
I’ll leave you with this mini excerpt that was on Pepperdine’s instagram honoring the 4 girls who died tragically…
