{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Why Bryan Kohberger's Family Chose This Moment to Speak","description":"Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to four counts of first-degree murder in the Idaho student killings and is serving four consecutive life sentences. A year after his plea, he filed a handwritten petition claiming he was pressured into a false confession by his own attorneys.\n\nHis family just made a public move. In a statement to ABC News, the Kohbergers say they fully support his bid to withdraw the guilty plea. They want the case resolved through \"a proper trial.\"\n\nPsychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins Tony to examine the timing and the psychology. Why go public now, when silence is safer? Is this genuine denial from parents who cannot reconcile their son with a quadruple murderer, or is Bryan manipulating the people who saved his life from the death penalty into serving his next campaign? And does that unwavering family support embolden a convicted killer's belief that he was wronged?\n\nThe first evidentiary hearing on Kohberger's petition is scheduled for June 2027.\n\nListen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292\nWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
