What Kohberger's New Lawyer Claims He Found

from Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary · host True Crime Today

Jason Goldman just joined Bryan Kohberger's court-appointed defense team, and his first move was telling PEOPLE magazine that everyone should stop assuming they understand the Idaho murders case. He's being paid with public money, in a case that has already cost Idaho taxpayers more than eight million dollars. Here's what's not in dispute: Kohberger confessed on July 2, 2025, in Ada County — four guilty pleas, four lives taken, Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The judge confirmed it was voluntary. Kohberger gave up his right to appeal. The evidence behind that confession runs deep: a Reddit survey asking real offenders how they picked their targets, peers at Washington State University who flagged him for stalking and intimidating women, cell tower records placing him near the victims' address on roughly two dozen late-night occasions before the attack, and DNA recovered from a knife sheath left beside one of the bodies. Twelve months after sentencing, Kohberger filed a jailhouse petition claiming he'd been tricked into confessing — with no supporting evidence attached. The Goncalves family called him a narcissist. Now a judge has scheduled an evidentiary hearing for June 2027, and Kohberger's own hired forensics expert, Sy Ray, says investigators actually missed MORE incriminating cellphone data — and that the death penalty should be back on the table. So what exactly does Goldman think he's found that changes any of that? A new attorney who hadn't even read the file yet has ten months to answer that question in open court.
