Nicole Albert, in her testimony, addressed several key points regarding the night John O'Keefe died and subsequent events. Defense attorney Elizabeth Little scrutinized Albert's omission of mentioning her nephew, Colin Albert, in initial interviews with state police, suggesting a possible intent to protect him. Nicole Albert clarified that Colin was not considered part of the group that night as he left immediately when they arrived home from the Waterfall Bar & Grille, hence his exclusion from her statements to the police.

Additionally, Little highlighted brief phone calls between Nicole and her sister, Jennifer McCabe, on the morning after O'Keefe’s death, which Nicole claimed she did not answer, stating she was awoken by McCabe physically coming into her room instead.  

The Assistant District Attorney Adam Lally also inquired about the Alberts’ family dog, Chloe, addressing a defense theory that Chloe might have attacked O'Keefe. 
Nicole Albert confirmed that Chloe had previously been involved in aggressive incidents with other dogs, leading to her decision to rehome Chloe in Vermont, emphasizing that it was not a matter of getting rid of the dog but ensuring a better environment for her.   
Lastly, Nicole discussed her family’s decision to sell their home, asserting it was unrelated to O'Keefe’s death, and attributed to practical reasons such as downsizing due to her children getting older.
