This was recorded BEFORE Bryan Kohberger's Plea Deal-Who’s On Kohberger’s Witness List and Will It Help or Hurt His Defense
Description:
From a boxing coach to a high school guidance counselor, Kohberger’s defense witness list reads more like a yearbook than a legal strategy. But these witnesses aren’t being called to talk about alibis—they’re there to try and humanize the defendant. The real question is: will it work?
In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer returns to break down who’s on the defense’s witness list, what they might say, and how it could either soften the jury—or completely backfire. We also look at the risk of calling reluctant or hostile witnesses, and why the defense may be playing the long game: not to win, but to save Kohberger from a death sentence.
