Inside the Kohberger Courtroom: What the Judge Allowed—and What He Blocked!
In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we're diving into the high-stakes pretrial hearing of Bryan Kohberger—the man accused in the brutal murders of four University of Idaho students. With defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joining the discussion, we break down the court's latest rulings and what they mean for the prosecution, the defense, and the jury that's set to hear this nationally watched case. From Amazon purchase histories to cell tower data, we're laying out the chessboard as both sides gear up for one of the most anticipated trials of the decade. We examine the evidence that will—and won’t—be shown to jurors, including a 911 call from the crime scene, a 3D model of the murder house, and a contested eyewitness description of a man with “bushy eyebrows.” Plus, we tackle the question of whether Kohberger’s autism can legally factor into a potential death sentence, and the pressure his defense team faces in choosing whether or not to put him on the stand to support his stargazing alibi. Every decision made in this courtroom shapes the story the jury will be told—and we’re unpacking it all. Whether you’ve been closely following the Bryan Kohberger case or are just jumping in, this episode delivers an expert breakdown of what’s fact, what’s still in limbo, and how the battle over pretrial evidence is setting the tone for what’s to come.
