Summary
In this episode, author and former FBI agent/journalist Christopher Whitcomb explains why he wrote his book “Broken Plea,” which examines primary source case documents and evidence photos/videos from the Moscow Idaho murder case involving Bryan Kohberger. He says recent document releases raised questions that didn’t surface because there was no trial and the case was under a gag order, even though Kohberger pled guilty and received four life sentences plus 10 years for brutally ending the lives of four University of Idaho students Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Whitcomb discusses claims in prosecution reports that blood stains in common areas were “diluted with an unknown substance,” questions about timelines and how one person could commit the murders, and details from body camera footage and the initial 911 call. He also describes untested hair evidence found in Ethan’s hand/bed area that remained in storage for years, and challenges common assumptions, especially given recent findings.
