Why Bryan Kohberger Believes He Can Undo His Guilty Plea

from True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews · host Real Story Media

Bryan Kohberger pled guilty to four counts of first-degree murder, told a judge under oath he did it, received four life sentences — and is now claiming a book led him to evidence that proves otherwise. His petition cites "clumps of hair" from Ethan Chapin's hand, a phrase that appears only in a retired FBI agent's book and nowhere in the case record. Jennifer Coffindaffer examines the collision between what Kohberger claims and what the forensic evidence shows, including a defense expert's testing that matched the hair back to the victim. The conversation also covers whether Anne Taylor would end her own career to give Kohberger a path forward, and what it means for the Goncalves, Mogen, Kernodle, and Chapin families that the finality they were promised is already unraveling.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
