Did Bryan Kohberger Build His Legal Case From a True Crime Book?

Bryan Kohberger's handwritten petition uses a phrase that is the title of a book published months before he filed. The evidence term he cites appears in no court record — only in that book. And the evidence he says was hidden from him was examined by an expert his own lawyers paid for.Bob Motta of Defense Diaries joins Tony Brueski to break down what this petition is built on, what the sworn record says about whether the plea was voluntary, and what the historical pattern tells you about defendants who tried to undo pleas they took to avoid execution.They also cover Steve Goncalves welcoming a retrial, the procedural reality of what happens if the plea is withdrawn, and why the question that matters most is not whether Kohberger can get this heard — it is whether any attorney would stand beside him at trial.Tony Brueski and criminal defense attorney Bob Motta of Defense Diaries.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
