NEWS: Brian Kohberger's Plea, Jodi Huisentruit Doc, and a Sentencing in the Breonna Taylor Case

In this bonus episode (possibly a recurring segment, we'll see), we’re digging into some of the biggest headlines in the crime space. First, we break down Brian Kohberger’s early July plea in the University of Idaho murders and explore how reported patterns of misogyny may have played a role in his actions. Then, we discuss the new Hulu docuseries Her Last Broadcast, which revisits the 1995 abduction of Jodi Huisentruit. While I haven’t watched it yet, we highlight some key clarifications the series brings to light. Lastly, we reflect on the recent sentencing of a former Kentucky police officer to 33 months in prison for excessive force during the 2020 raid that killed Breonna Taylor. We revisit the circumstances of her death and how demanding police accountability shouldn't be controversial. If you have any information on the abduction of Jodi Huisentruit, call the Mason City Police Department at (641) 421-3636 or email Iowa DCI Special Agent Ryan Herman at [email protected].
