Can Bryan Kohberger's "Moonlit Alibi" St...

True Crime Today
About this episode
In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," attorney Eric Faddis discusses the latest developments in the case against Bryan Kohberger, focusing on his newly claimed alibi. Kohberger claims he was out driving alone at night, observing the moon and stars, during the time of the alleged crimes. The defense plans to support this with testimony from a cell phone tower and radio frequency expert. Faddis critiques the alibi as traditional defenses usually require an alibi witness, which Kohberger lacks. The discussion also covers the strategic risks and potential impacts of introducing such an alibi, considering the existing evidence, including cell phone triangulation data that places Kohberger at the crime scene with his phone turned off during the critical times. Faddis and Brueski discuss the implications for Kohberger's defense, questioning the logic and effectiveness of presenting an alibi that might be perceived as hollow or easily contestable in court.

Main Points of the Conversation

- Discussion on Bryan Kohberger's alibi of being alone, driving and observing the night sky during the crime.
- Critique of the alibi's strength due to lack of traditional alibi witnesses.
- Explanation of legal requirements for an alibi defense, particularly the need for credible witness testimony.
- Analysis of the potential role and effectiveness of a cell phone tower and radio frequency expert in corroborating Kohberger’s alibi.
- The possible strategic missteps by the defense in choosing to present a weak alibi instead of focusing on creating reasonable doubt with available evidence.
- Consideration of how Kohberger’s antisocial tendencies could be perceived by the jury and whether these characteristics might influence the defense strategy.
- The challenges of presenting evidence when key data (like cell phone location tracking) is unavailable due to the phone being turned off.
