Summary

It’s been more than two and a half years since the brutal murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, and Madison Mogen—four University of Idaho students whose lives were tragically cut short in Moscow, Idaho. Months after the killings, Brian Kohberger was named the prime suspect when his DNA was discovered on a knife sheath left at the scene. Despite the evidence, Kohberger maintained his innocence. That was until this week, when he shocked Americans by pleading guilty to all four murders. In today's encore episode, Trey revisits his initial reaction to Kohberger’s not guilty plea and explains why he thought Kohberger would pursue a mental health defense. He also explains why depositions aren’t used in criminal trials—and even sneaks in a few unforgettable golf stories. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
