Kohberger's Defense Expert Just Said WHAT About Him?!

Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to four murders in Ada County on July 2, 2025 — Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin — and gave up his right to appeal in the process. Thirteen months later, he filed a handwritten petition from jail claiming his own attorneys coerced that confession, promised prison conditions that never materialized, and buried evidence, including hair found in Ethan Chapin's hand that was excluded as Kohberger's but never DNA tested. The Goncalves family called him a narcissist. Prosecutors asked the judge to throw the petition out without a hearing. He refused. Judge Steven Hippler has scheduled a status conference for June 3, 2027, and a full evidentiary hearing for June 17. Here's what makes this case impossible to predict: the digital forensics expert Kohberger's own defense team hired, Sy Ray, went public and said investigators actually missed additional incriminating cellphone geolocation data placing Kohberger near the crime scene before the murders. Ray told reporters he's confident Kohberger would be convicted all over again — and that the death penalty should be restored. Meanwhile, two new attorneys have stepped into the case. Greg Rauch was appointed in August 2026 and hadn't read the file or spoken to his client yet. Jason Goldman told PEOPLE magazine the public shouldn't assume it knows this case, in a prosecution that's already cost Idaho taxpayers more than eight million dollars. What happens when Kohberger's former lawyers are sworn in to answer for all of it?
