Kohberger Has No Valid Alibi, What Next?

May 07, 03:00 PM

In a recent episode of the podcast 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski,' former prosecutor Eric Faddis discussed the ongoing case against Bryan Kohberger, who has been accused of a serious crime but has presented a questionable alibi involving his fondness for nocturnal activities like hiking under the moon and stars. This alibi has been scrutinized due to the lack of corroborative evidence and because Kohberger's cell phone was reportedly off during the time of the alleged crimes. Faddis elaborates on the legal complexities of presenting an alibi defense, the standards required for its acceptance, and the implications of failing to establish a convincing alibi. He also touched on the potential change of trial venue due to community and defendant's rights to a fair trial, illustrating the strategic maneuvers in high-profile legal battles.

Main Points:
- Bryan Kohberger's defense has offered an alibi involving his interest in the moon and stars, which the prosecution has challenged due to the lack of supportive evidence.
- The defense's claim is weakened by the absence of an active cell phone to track Kohberger's location during the time of the alleged crimes.
- Legal requirements for an alibi include substantial evidence, typically from a witness, which Kohberger's defense does not have.
- If the alibi is deemed insufficient, the defense may need to indirectly suggest Kohberger's absence from the crime scene during the trial.
- The decision on the trial's venue is pending, balancing community interests against the necessity of a fair trial to avoid appellate issues.
