From Classroom to Courtroom: How a Knife, a Balaclava, and a College Paper Are Shaping the Case Against Bryan Kohberger A college assignment written three years before the Idaho murders is now being treated as potential evidence in one of the highest-profile murder trials in the country. Prosecutors in the case against Bryan Kohberger want to introduce a paper he wrote in 2020, titled Crime-scene Scenario Final, as proof that he had extensive knowledge of how to approach a homicide investigation—before he was ever accused of committing one. This isn't your average term paper. It's a 12-page walk-through of a fictional murder scene involving a woman who had been killed with a knife. Kohberger was a grad student at DeSales University at the time, studying criminal justice. And he didn't just hit the broad strokes—he dove deep. The paper breaks down a step-by-step protocol for securing a crime scene. He describes how officers should block off the area to prevent contamination, obtain the appropriate search warrants, and immediately call in a supervisor, a coroner, and a forensics team. It's written with a level of procedural detail that goes well beyond what most people would expect in a class paper. He also describes the importance of wearing protective gear—gloves, shoe covers, full-body suits—to avoid leaving behind DNA, fibers, or other trace evidence. He specifically writes that “anything that is fiber-free and covers the mouth, hair, and overall body would be helpful in avoiding crime-scene contamination.” That line, in particular, has prosecutors' attention, given that one of the surviving roommates from the Idaho home described seeing a masked intruder wearing dark clothing—someone who didn't leave behind any visible trace other than a single knife sheath. And the paper doesn't stop there. Kohberger details how to identify and collect evidence: swabbing for biological material, photographing everything before touching it, labeling and packaging each item properly. He emphasizes the critical importance of preserving the chain of custody, writing that evidence must be documented, sealed, and tracked from collection all the way to trial. He even covers how to avoid tampering or accidental transfer of evidence between investigators. Then there's a section on canvassing. Kohberger suggests that investigators should talk to anyone who routinely passes by the scene—mail carriers, delivery drivers, neighbors—and establish firm alibis for each of them. He writes, “Where were the neighbors when this happened? Their alibis should be evident and supported.” It's a sharp line—and when you're standing trial for killing four college students in a neighborhood where nobody saw it coming, a line like that reads a little differently. Prosecutors say the paper illustrates a mind that wasn't just educated in theory but highly attuned to the real-world mechanics of crime scene control and investigative protocol. They're not saying this document is a confession—but they are framing it as part of a larger pattern. And alongside that pattern, they're placing another seemingly minor but potentially telling piece of evidence: a receipt for a black balaclava. That purchase, allegedly made by Kohberger at a Dick's Sporting Goods in Pennsylvania in early 2022, is being tied to the account of one of the surviving roommates, who told police she saw a masked figure in the house the night of the murders. Prosecutors say the balaclava matches the description of the one worn by the intruder. Combined with the college paper, the DNA on the knife sheath, and Kohberger's own background in criminology, the state is trying to paint a picture of someone who didn't just know how to study crime—he allegedly used that knowledge to commit one. Now, the defense will push back. They're expected to argue that introducing a school paper as evidence in a capital case is inflammatory, irrelevant, and designed to prejudice the jury. They'll likely challenge the balaclava link as well, noting that purchasing cold-weather gear in Pennsylvania isn't exactly suspicious in January. But with the trial set to begin August 11, every motion counts. Judge Steven Hippler is set to hear arguments on April 9, including whether Kohberger's diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder could be used to argue against the death penalty, and whether jurors should hear the delayed 911 call placed by the surviving roommates—nearly eight hours after the murders. Whether the court admits the college paper remains to be seen. But prosecutors believe it says something about who Kohberger was before he became a suspect. And if the jury hears it, those 12 pages might weigh more heavily than any textbook ever should. #BryanKohberger #IdahoStudentMurders #TrueCrimeUpdate #CriminalJusticeTrial Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

It seems as if every lawyer on planet earth has weighed in on Bryan Kohberger and depending on their background, their commentary has been all over the place. If you let the former FBI agents and prosecutors tell it, they would have you believe that this is going to be a slam dunk for the prosecution. However, on the flipside of that, we hear from defense lawyesr about how each one of these pieces of evidence can have holes punched in it.

The case against quadruple murder suspect Bryan Kohberger finally has a trial date, as an Idaho judge has scheduled a date for next year, RadarOnline.com has learned.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Welcome to season 11 of I'd Rather Be Reading! This season we will, of course, continue to cover the latest and greatest nonfiction books, but we're also going to focus on many events that gripped the nation past and present—like the O.J. Simpson murders (which happened 30 years ago this June), the Oklahoma City bombing, Columbine (which happened 25 years ago this month), and JFK Jr.'s plane crash, which is marking its twenty-fifth anniversary this year. Today on the show we're digging into a true crime case that's much more recent: the quadruple homicide of four University of Idaho students on November 13, 2022. Today on the show we are speaking with J. Reuben Appelman about his book While Idaho Slept: The Hunt for Answers in the Murder of Four College Students, released last October. He is from Idaho and has lived there for 25 years; you'll hear him talk about how his daughter attended U of I and how unlikely even one murder, let alone four, is in the idyllic town of Moscow. He is a private investigator and his true crime memoir, The Kill Jar, inspired the popular Hulu docuseries Children of the Snow. Stick around after the show for a book pick about the Murdaugh murders, one connected to Nirvana (Kurt Cobain committed suicide 30 years ago on April 8), and two nonfiction picks based off of television shows premiering on Hulu and Apple TV+ in the coming week.   While Idaho Slept: The Hunt for Answers in the Murder of Four College Students by J. Reuben Appleman   Plus two entertainment picks! Read: Under the Bridge by Rebecca Godfrey | Watch: Under the Bridge on Hulu, out on April 17   Read: A Great Improvisation: Franklin, France, and the Birth of America by Stacy Schiff | Watch: Franklin on Apple TV+, out on April 12

In the intricate case against Bryan Kohberger, accused of the brutal murders of four University of Idaho students, a key piece of evidence – Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG) – has been handed over to his defense team. This move raises numerous questions about the use of DNA in criminal investigations, privacy concerns, and the judicial process.    Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joined Tony Brueski on the "Hidden Killers" podcast to dissect the implications of this significant development. Coffindaffer believes that while handing over the IGG evidence was the right call to avoid future appellate issues, its impact on the Kohberger case might be minimal. She refers to it as a "Nothing burger," citing the numerous other avenues the investigation had pursued to reach Kohberger.    The conversation then delved into privacy concerns associated with IGG evidence. Often obtained without warrants, this type of evidence can trace familial connections, potentially implicating individuals who have never been in trouble with the law. Coffindaffer notes that the FBI usually prefers obtaining evidence through search warrants, even in cases where other methods are available, to avoid privacy issues.    Discussing the broader implications, Coffindaffer acknowledges the potential for future legal challenges. Despite privacy concerns, she believes most people would support the use of familial DNA to capture potential criminals, like Kohberger. This support, however, might not extend to cases where family members deliberately cover for relatives, as seen in the Gabby Petito case.    Coffindaffer and Brueski also ponder the potential for legal disputes over DNA evidence. While they foresee lawsuits challenging the use of such evidence, Coffindaffer predicts that existing case law will likely continue to support the use of search warrants to obtain IGG information. She highlights the positive impact of DNA technology in exonerating wrongfully convicted individuals, underscoring its crucial role in the justice system.    As the conversation veers into a lighter tone, Brueski humorously suggests submitting a dog's DNA to a human ancestry service to test the system's accuracy. This lighthearted moment underscores the gravity and complexity of the discussions surrounding DNA evidence and privacy.    As the Kohberger case unfolds, the use of IGG evidence remains a point of intense scrutiny. While it may not drastically alter the course of the trial, its inclusion in discovery ensures that both the prosecution and defense have access to the same information, thereby upholding the integrity of the judicial process. This case serves as a stark reminder of the ever-evolving landscape of forensic science and its profound implications on privacy, law, and order. As the trial progresses, one can't help but wonder: will the DNA evidence solidify the case against Kohberger, or will it open new avenues for debate and legal precedent in criminal investigations?

In the intricate case against Bryan Kohberger, accused of the brutal murders of four University of Idaho students, a key piece of evidence – Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG) – has been handed over to his defense team. This move raises numerous questions about the use of DNA in criminal investigations, privacy concerns, and the judicial process.    Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joined Tony Brueski on the "Hidden Killers" podcast to dissect the implications of this significant development. Coffindaffer believes that while handing over the IGG evidence was the right call to avoid future appellate issues, its impact on the Kohberger case might be minimal. She refers to it as a "Nothing burger," citing the numerous other avenues the investigation had pursued to reach Kohberger.    The conversation then delved into privacy concerns associated with IGG evidence. Often obtained without warrants, this type of evidence can trace familial connections, potentially implicating individuals who have never been in trouble with the law. Coffindaffer notes that the FBI usually prefers obtaining evidence through search warrants, even in cases where other methods are available, to avoid privacy issues.    Discussing the broader implications, Coffindaffer acknowledges the potential for future legal challenges. Despite privacy concerns, she believes most people would support the use of familial DNA to capture potential criminals, like Kohberger. This support, however, might not extend to cases where family members deliberately cover for relatives, as seen in the Gabby Petito case.    Coffindaffer and Brueski also ponder the potential for legal disputes over DNA evidence. While they foresee lawsuits challenging the use of such evidence, Coffindaffer predicts that existing case law will likely continue to support the use of search warrants to obtain IGG information. She highlights the positive impact of DNA technology in exonerating wrongfully convicted individuals, underscoring its crucial role in the justice system.    As the conversation veers into a lighter tone, Brueski humorously suggests submitting a dog's DNA to a human ancestry service to test the system's accuracy.

In the heart of South Carolina's Lowcountry, a long line of influential attorneys has its roots with the enigmatic Randolph Murdaugh Sr. Understanding the history and origins of this family is key to unraveling the complex story surrounding Alex Murdaugh, a figure currently in the spotlight due to recent allegations of misconduct.    Randolph Murdaugh Sr. was born in 1887 in Varnville, South Carolina, into a wealthy family with deep ties to the region. His father, a Confederate States Army veteran and businessman, instilled a dedication to public service and business acumen. It was this familial influence that shaped young Randolph's future.    After receiving a public-school education and attending the US Naval Academy, Murdaugh Sr. graduated from the University of South Carolina (USC) with a Bachelor of Arts in 1908, followed by a law degree in 1910. The same year, he set up a law firm in Hampton, South Carolina, paving the way for what would become an influential family dynasty in South Carolina's legal circles.    He then served as the town attorney and took on various civic roles, including appointments to the school board and delegate positions for the Democratic Party. By 1920, he was elected as the circuit solicitor for the 14th judicial circuit, a position he held until his untimely death in 1940.    While serving as a solicitor, Murdaugh Sr. gained a reputation as a formidable prosecutor, handling high-profile cases, including prosecuting corrupt county officials and even representing a governor. His charismatic courtroom presence often filled the courthouse galleries during murder trials.    The family line continued with Randolph "Buster" Murdaugh Jr., one of Randolph Murdaugh Sr.'s two sons. Following in his father's footsteps, Buster continued the family's legal legacy, often filling in for his ailing father in court.    The Murdaugh name remained prominent in South Carolina's legal circles for nearly a century until Alex Murdaugh, Randolph Sr.'s great-grandson, found himself embroiled in a string of scandals. The recent controversies surrounding Alex Murdaugh have brought renewed attention to the family's long and intricate history.    As investigations into Alex Murdaugh's alleged misconduct unfold, understanding the historical context and the family's origins can provide valuable insights. The Murdaugh family's rise to prominence in South Carolina began with a dedication to public service and a love for the law, qualities that are essential to understanding the legacy that Alex Murdaugh inherited and now threatens to tarnish.    From Randolph Murdaugh Sr.'s founding of a law firm in Hampton to the present-day scandal surrounding Alex Murdaugh, the Murdaugh family's story is a tale of influence, power, and ultimately, a legacy on the brink. As new details continue to emerge, the historical role of the Murdaughs in South Carolina's legal community will undoubtedly be scrutinized further, casting new light on a family that has shaped the state's legal landscape for decades.

In a shocking case that has rocked Virginia, former University of Richmond basketball star, Kassceen Weaver, began his trial on Monday for the alleged murder of his young son and the subsequent concealment of the body in a freezer for several years. Weaver, now 50 years old, has been indicted with felony murder, felony child neglect, and concealing a dead body. This harrowing case underscores the severity of domestic violence and child abuse, subjects that need immediate and uncompromising attention in our society.    In May 2021, the tranquility of Weaver's Chesterfield home was shattered when the police discovered the body of Eliel Adon Weaver, also known as Adon, hidden in a freezer in the garage. Authorities estimate that Adon, the youngest son of Kassceen and Dina Weaver, was under five years old at the time of his death.    As the trial proceedings got underway, Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney Joshua Loren laid out the grim circumstances leading to Adon's tragic death. The discovery of Adon's body was prompted by a tip-off from his maternal uncle, who had been alerted to the disturbing secret by Adon's mother. Police later uncovered the child's body, sealed in a vacuum bag, and stashed away in a storage bin within a large freezer.    Autopsy reports on Adon presented a horrifying picture of the child's final moments, revealing multiple instances of blunt force trauma, including a skull fracture and numerous rib fractures. These findings implicated Weaver, a stay-at-home father and primary caregiver, who was responsible for Adon's well-being and home-schooling.    The defense, led by attorney Emilee Hasbrouck, painted a different picture, arguing that Weaver's actions were driven by grief, not malice. The defense suggested that Weaver, devastated by his son's death, chose to preserve Adon's remains in the freezer. This, according to Hasbrouck, was a desperate attempt to hold onto a piece of his son, rather than a nefarious attempt to hide evidence of wrongdoing.    During the trial, the court heard testimony from Adon's mother, Dina Weaver. She recounted the chilling events of October 23, 2018, when she received a call from Kassceen. He had told her that Adon had passed out and was not breathing. Despite her pleas to take Adon to a hospital, Kassceen resisted, allegedly due to fear of losing their other child due to Adon's apparent bruises.    The shocking revelations surrounding Adon's death have left the community in shock and mourning. The tragic tale of Adon Weaver serves as a stark reminder of the insidious nature of domestic violence and child abuse, as well as the urgent need for societal and institutional vigilance against these horrors. As the trial continues, our thoughts remain with those affected by this tragic event.    Kassceen Weaver, once celebrated for his athletic prowess, now stands in the shadow of these grave allegations. As the community awaits justice for Adon, this story reinforces the fact that behind closed doors, even seemingly normal families can harbor disturbing secrets. Whether Weaver will choose to testify in his own defense remains to be seen. This case, with its layers of sorrow and controversy, underscores the importance of maintaining a vigilant eye on potential signs of child abuse and domestic violence in our communities.

As the trial of Bryan Kohberger, the accused in the 2022 Idaho student murders, gains momentum, one question that continues to intrigue legal observers and the public alike is the nature of the defense strategy that has been adopted to prove Kohberger's innocence.    Kohberger, a former Ph.D. criminology student at Washington State University, faces charges of four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary. The case, marked by its shocking brutality and the mystery surrounding Kohberger's alleged involvement, has become a focal point of national attention.    At the crux of his defense is the assertion that there is "no connection" between Kohberger and the victims. His defense team, led by attorney Jay Logsdon, has challenged the prosecution's DNA collection methods and use of genetic genealogy. In a recent court filing, the defense highlighted that DNA from three unidentified males was found at the crime scene, including on a glove outside the home.    Furthermore, the defense has cast doubt on the surveillance and tracking of a white Hyundai sedan that authorities claim links Kohberger to the murders. Kohberger's team argues that the evidence provided, whether it be the car or genetic genealogy, has so far yielded "precious little" connection between their client and the crime.    Despite the prosecution's claim that DNA from a knife sheath found at the crime scene matches Kohberger's, the defense maintains their stance on the lack of concrete evidence tying Kohberger directly to the murders. This argument appears to be a central pillar of their strategy, seeking to create reasonable doubt in the minds of the jury.    Moreover, the defense team's portrayal of Kohberger's demeanor and character has been highlighted. His lawyer, Jason LaBar, has described him as calm and intelligent, with Kohberger himself expressing confidence in his eventual exoneration.    The focus on alleged procedural flaws in the investigation and the emphasis on the absence of a direct link between Kohberger and the victims suggest a strategy of discrediting the prosecution's evidence. This tactic often hinges on creating sufficient doubt about the reliability and validity of the prosecution's case to prevent a guilty verdict.    However, the defense strategy also brings into focus the challenge of countering substantial physical evidence, such as the DNA alleged to be Kohberger's. The upcoming trial, set to begin on October 2, will test the strength of this defense.    As the court proceedings continue, the effectiveness of Kohberger's defense strategy remains to be seen. It will be the jury's responsibility to evaluate the evidence presented and determine whether the defense has successfully created reasonable doubt about Kohberger's guilt. The outcome of this case will undoubtedly set a precedent for future trials involving similar defense strategies. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts Ad-Free?

In a tale as puzzling as it is tragic, the figure of Bryan Kohberger stands at the heart of a complex murder investigation. The discourse surrounding the Latah County man's involvement in a series of heinous crimes has taken a turn towards mental health, with many questioning when and where things went awry for Kohberger.    Known to friends and acquaintances as a generally calm and amiable person, the allegations against Kohberger have shocked the community. Accused of brutal acts of violence, this dark portrayal seems a stark contrast to the man they once knew. As legal proceedings continue, many are left wondering whether mental health issues contributed to the stark transformation of Bryan Kohberger.    Kohberger, currently fighting allegations related to his involvement in murder charges, recently shocked the court by filing a motion to stay proceedings in his case. Citing a substantial failure to comply with selection procedures for a grand jury, Kohberger's move hints at a desperate attempt to fight the charges. But, for those who have followed the case closely, this move brings up the question: Does this motion reflect a legitimate concern or a carefully orchestrated distraction from the truth?    The proceedings have reignited discussions about Kohberger's past. Friends and family members recall a drastic change in his behavior over the years. What once was a jovial and outgoing personality started to become reclusive and unpredictable. Instances of paranoia, intense mood swings, and irrational fear began to surface, leaving those close to him worried and perplexed.    While it is essential not to rush to conclusions about mental health based solely on public speculation, the shifts in Kohberger's behavior raise questions about whether he had been silently battling a mental health disorder. Did this potential struggle contribute to the unimaginable acts he stands accused of? And if so, when did the first signs of his mental health issues begin to appear, and were there missed opportunities to intervene?    Unfortunately, as is often the case with mental health disorders, the signs can be easily overlooked until a significant incident brings them to light. In Kohberger's case, the alleged crimes have acted as that significant incident, casting a spotlight on his past behavior and prompting a community-wide search for answers.    Efforts to understand the role mental health played in this case are not only crucial for Kohberger's trial but could also provide invaluable insights into the intersection of mental health and crime. By investigating where and when things began to unravel for Kohberger, society can work towards better identifying and treating mental health issues before they escalate into dire situations.    As the search for truth continues, it is essential to remember that mental health struggles do not excuse violent behavior. However, understanding the context in which such behaviors arise can help develop more effective interventions and prevention strategies in the future. The case of Bryan Kohberger serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of mental health awareness and care in our society. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts Ad-Free?

As the gruesome Idaho student murders case continues, the question of whether to pursue the death penalty for suspect Bryan Kohberger has prompted a deeper discussion on its financial implications. According to a recent report, pursuing the death penalty rather than life imprisonment could potentially cost taxpayers an additional $1 million if Kohberger is convicted.    In June, Latah County Prosecuting Attorney Bill Thompson announced his intention to seek the death penalty if Kohberger is found guilty in the 2022 slayings of four University of Idaho students. The economics of this decision are now under scrutiny, given the potential additional burden on Idaho taxpayers.    The substantial financial impact comes from the extended incarceration period of inmates on death row and their associated healthcare costs. For instance, Gerald Pizzuto, an inmate on death row in Idaho since 1986, has reportedly racked up over $1.3 million in medical bills due to various health conditions. This underscores the potential long-term cost implications of death row convictions.    Further adding to the cost and complexity of death sentences, a shortage of lethal injections has prompted Idaho to reinstate the firing squad as an execution method earlier this year.    At the center of this debate is Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University. He is charged with four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary, following the horrific murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Authorities have yet to reveal a potential motive for the massacre, but the heinous nature of the crimes has led to the push for the death penalty.    Neama Rahmani, a former federal prosecutor and Los Angeles-based trial attorney, stated, "This is one of the most heinous murders in Idaho state history. There are many aggravating factors supporting the imposition of the death penalty, including multiple victims who were brutally and senselessly stabbed."    However, the decision to pursue the death penalty has drawn criticism from some quarters due to the potentially significant additional cost to taxpayers. This concern highlights the ongoing debate around the fiscal and ethical implications of capital punishment.    Despite the potential additional costs, the pursuit of the death penalty reflects the gravity of the charges against Kohberger and the profound impact of the crimes on the victims' families and the community.    As the trial progresses, scheduled to begin on Oct. 2, public attention will not only be on the outcome of the case but also on the broader discussion around the financial implications of the death penalty. Ultimately, the decision weighs the pursuit of what some see as fitting justice against the additional cost to taxpayers. With this high-profile case, the discussion about the price of justice is sure to continue in Idaho and beyond. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts Ad-Free?

In an unprecedented move that has sparked widespread debate, former Charles Manson follower Leslie Van Houten has been released from prison. Van Houten, who played a significant role in the notorious Manson family murders, is now free, raising profound questions about societal consequences and potential implications for the American criminal justice system. This shocking decision has thrust the issue of reintegrating convicted murderers into society into the limelight, reigniting discussions on crime, punishment, rehabilitation, and societal safety.    Leslie Van Houten, once a key member of the infamous Manson family, was convicted for her role in the gruesome LaBianca murders that rocked the nation in the late 1960s. Her release after over five decades behind bars has caused a significant stir, not only among the surviving families of her victims but across society at large. The impact of this decision reverberates through various societal strata, from public safety concerns to the broader question of whether our penal system effectively rehabilitates violent offenders.    From a public safety perspective, the release of a convicted murderer poses potential risks. The community may fear the presence of an individual associated with such heinous crimes, fostering unease and insecurity. The Manson murders were some of the most chilling in American history. Van Houten's freedom can serve as a distressing reminder of these horrific events, particularly for those who lived through that tumultuous time.    Moreover, Van Houten's release raises important questions about the efficacy of the criminal justice system in rehabilitating violent offenders. While the justice system's goal is to reform convicts and prepare them for reintegration into society, public opinion often questions whether individuals who committed atrocious crimes can genuinely be reformed.    On the other hand, advocates of prison reform argue that even those convicted of the most severe crimes should have the opportunity for redemption. They posit that decades spent behind bars, coupled with rehabilitation efforts, can bring about a transformation, even in those who once followed the dark path of someone like Charles Manson.    Van Houten's release may also influence the debate surrounding parole for elderly prisoners. At 72, Van Houten's age and her time spent in prison could be factors that weighed in favor of her parole. With a rapidly aging prison population, this case might set a precedent, leading to more paroles being granted to elderly inmates who have served long sentences.    The societal impact of releasing convicted murderers like Leslie Van Houten back into society is vast and multifaceted. It forces us to grapple with uncomfortable questions about crime, punishment, and redemption. As a society, we must consider whether individuals who have committed horrendous crimes can change and whether they should have the chance to reintegrate into society after serving their sentences.    This moment in criminal justice history serves as a catalyst for discussions on the future direction of our justice system. The dialogue it prompts may lead to significant changes in policies and perceptions surrounding crime, punishment, and rehabilitation. Regardless of individual opinions on the Van Houten release, the societal impact of this decision is undeniable and will likely continue to resonate in the years to come.

In the latest update on a disturbing crime case from Aurora, Colorado, 45-year-old dentist James Craig faces charges of first-degree murder for allegedly poisoning his wife, Angela Craig, using cyanide and an ingredient commonly found in eyedrops.   Court documents reveal that Craig reportedly used cyanide and tetrahydrozoline, a decongestant found in eyedrops, to end his wife's life. The shocking revelation has not only devastated the local community but also attracted national media attention.   According to the 18th Judicial District Attorney's Office, James Craig is charged with first-degree murder and tampering with physical evidence. He's currently being held on a $10 million cash bond.   Investigation documents expose a chilling timeline of events. In the days leading up to Angela's death, Craig allegedly purchased cyanide and arsenic, a potent poison. He is suspected of adding the lethal concoction to his wife's protein shakes. Craig reportedly used a public computer at his dental practice, Summerbrook Dental, to search for subjects such as "How many grams of pure arsenic will kill a human," "How to make poison," "Is Arsenic Detectable in Autopsy," and "how to make a murder look like a heart attack."   The affidavit further claims that James Craig purchased the poison on Amazon, one of the world's largest online marketplaces. This detail raises significant questions about the sale and distribution of potentially lethal substances online.   In March, Angela Craig was taken to the hospital due to severe headaches and dizziness. Her health condition deteriorated rapidly, leading to her being declared medically brain-dead and taken off life support. The Aurora Police began investigating her "suspicious death" and, upon discovering she was poisoned, arrested James Craig on suspicion of murder.   Further insight into the case suggests a turbulent marriage marked by James Craig's infidelity. It is reported that Angela wanted to leave her husband, but he "always convinced her to stay." While his wife was hospitalized, Craig allegedly met with a woman named Karin Cain, exchanging intimate and sexually explicit emails with her. Cain, who had no knowledge of Craig's marital status, expressed regret about her involvement with him in an exclusive interview with ABC News.   Craig's financial situation also raises concerns. Detective Bobbi Olson suggested money may have been another motive for Angela Craig's murder. The couple had life insurance policies worth $3.4 million, and Craig's dental practice, Summerbrook Dental, was reportedly struggling.   The defense, however, painted a different picture, arguing that the couple's relationship was affectionate and the dental practice was profitable. They also raised the question of whether the poison was intended for Angela Craig or for James Craig himself, noting his previous suicide attempt.   This chilling case sheds light on the unseen struggles within seemingly perfect middle-class lives. As Craig awaits his trial, the public and media continue to watch with bated breath, hoping for justice in Angela Craig's tragic death. The legal proceedings for this case will undoubtedly serve as a stark reminder of the grim reality that can lurk beneath the surface of everyday life. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts Ad-Free?

In a decision sparking heated debate across the nation, former Charles Manson follower and convicted murder conspirator, Leslie Van Houten, was recently granted parole, marking her fourth recommendation for release since 2016. The recommendation, made by a California parole panel, brings into focus the dichotomy between punishment and rehabilitation, raising the question: why was Van Houten released?    Van Houten, now 73, was just 19 when she joined Manson's cult, "The Family," and participated in the brutal murders of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca in 1969. In what became one of the most infamous criminal cases in American history, she was convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder. While her crimes were horrifying, her recent release hinged on a significant factor: her behavior and growth in prison.    During her over five decades of incarceration, Van Houten has been described by prison officials as a model inmate. She earned college degrees, participated in self-help programs, and even counseled fellow inmates. Supporters argue that her transformation and remorse demonstrate the potential for rehabilitation, even in the most dire circumstances. The parole board's decision, however, isn't merely an endorsement of her personal transformation; it also underscores a wider shift in the criminal justice system, gradually steering away from the draconian 'tough on crime' approach and recognizing the potential for reform.    Nevertheless, the decision has met with considerable backlash, mainly from the victims' families and members of the public who believe that Van Houten's involvement in the brutal Manson murders should preclude her from ever walking free. They argue that some crimes are so heinous, the toll on victims so heavy, that releasing the perpetrator undermines the very notion of justice. The dichotomy between these contrasting viewpoints raises difficult questions about the purpose of incarceration, balancing societal safety, justice for victims, and the potential for individual redemption.

In a peculiar turn of events that has riveted Houston and the nation at large, 26-year-old Rudy Farias, who was thought to have been missing for eight years, gave a revealing first interview since the unusual circumstances of his situation came to light. Speaking to the local Fox affiliate in Houston, Farias, whose face was hidden at his request, provided a harrowing account of his life, likening his existence to confinement in a "prison."    "It's as if I lived in a prison," Farias confided, his voice laced with palpable emotion. "I just wanted to be free. I just wanted to live my life." The supposed prison was not a conventional jail with concrete walls and steel bars. Instead, it was the home of his own mother, Janie Santana, a place where he alleges he was held captive for close to a decade.    For years, Santana did not physically restrain him or barricade him in their northeast Texas home. Instead, she allegedly employed psychological tactics, using the potency of her threats and a barrage of negative affirmations to dominate and control him. The emotional toll from this treatment was evident as Farias fought back tears during the interview. He made his feelings towards his mother quite clear, stating, "I don't want any contact with her at all. I just want to live my life away from her."   Farias claims he was compelled to work excessively long hours, almost enslaved by labor, earning a meager $60 for twelve-hour shifts worked seven days a week. The manipulation and control even extended to his identity, with Farias asserting that he was made to assume a false name.    Farias quickly addressed rumors that had been swirling about his relationship with his mother, flatly denying allegations of sexual involvement. However, he admitted to his mother's attempts to blur the lines of their relationship, violating his personal boundaries in ways that made him uncomfortable.    It was a life of manipulation, alleged Farias, a life where his mother persistently made him believe he was a fugitive. She convinced him that surfacing from his enforced hiding would lead to his immediate arrest. In one instance, while driving his mother's car, he was pulled over by the police. His mother, he claimed, instructed him to use a fake name as she feared he would be arrested. This account seems to align with reports from Houston Police Lt. Christopher Zamora, who confirmed that there had been past interactions between the Houston Police Department and Farias and Santana, where false names and dates of birth had been provided.    Farias painted a picture of an isolated existence where he was instructed to remain hidden when friends and family visited. His mother's orders were clear, he said: stay quiet, stay out of sight. "I was stuck at home," he shared with visible distress. "Somebody would come up, my mom would just tell me to stay in the room, keep the doors locked, don't let them in. Don't make any sounds."    The perplexing saga of Farias' disappearance and reappearance has drawn significant media attention. Last July, Farias was believed to have been found outside a church, with his mother seemingly confirming the news on social media. But the Houston Police Department refuted this narrative, revealing that Farias had actually returned home the day after he was reported missing in 2015.    Janie Santana, who has not responded to multiple attempts for comment, remains an enigma in this strange tale. Despite the grave allegations made by her son, she has not been charged in connection with his disappearance. The truth behind the Rudy Farias story remains a mystery, the answers to which are eagerly awaited by a captivated public. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts Ad-Free?

Idaho police arrested 28-year-old Bryan Kohberger more than six weeks after the shocking murder of four college students. The murders in an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho, have gripped the nation, with the defendant's legal strategy now being scrutinized.   Charged with four counts of first-degree murder and one count of felony burglary, Kohberger is currently facing a trial that could result in the death penalty. In a surprising twist, Kohberger's defense team's tactics have stirred up questions, with some observers wondering if they are attempting to distract potential jurors and the public from the full extent of Kohberger's alleged involvement in the killings.   Kohberger, a Ph.D. criminology student at Washington State University at the time of his arrest, has steadfastly maintained his innocence. His attorney, Jason LaBar, has been vocal about Kohberger's calm demeanor and his assertion that he will be exonerated. This depiction of Kohberger's character has sparked debate, as some consider it a calculated move to divert attention from the seriousness of the charges.   LaBar's comments, while legally routine, have amplified the attention on the case, fueling speculations about the defense strategy. Will this narrative sway potential jurors and public opinion? Are these assertions an attempt to blur the lines of the defendant's involvement in the murders?   To provide context, it's important to note that Kohberger didn't respond when asked to plead in court, leading the judge to enter not-guilty pleas on his behalf. This unusual silence on his part has been highlighted by his defense, seemingly to reinforce their claims of his innocence and shock at the charges. Yet, according to Idaho authorities, the evidence against Kohberger appears substantial. Investigators reportedly found DNA linking Kohberger to the crime scene, and surveillance footage allegedly shows a car similar to his driving around the crime scene during the time of the murders.    Moreover, information from Kohberger's personal and academic life, as shared by his peers, paints a picture of a complex individual. His co-students and acquaintances have described him as someone seeking to fit in and exhibiting a need to demonstrate his knowledge. In fact, one of Kohberger's neighbors claimed that the suspect had eerily talked about the murders just days after they occurred.   In the face of such damning evidence and public scrutiny, the defense's strategy may seem like a smoke screen to some. However, the legal process in the United States mandates a presumption of innocence until proven guilty. Therefore, the defense's portrayal of Kohberger is not only their right but also their duty to ensure a fair trial.   While the public and potential jurors may speculate about Kohberger's defense strategy, the ultimate determination of guilt or innocence lies in the hands of the jury, who will have to objectively evaluate the evidence presented.   As the trial progresses, it will be important to balance the public discourse with the principles of justice. While Kohberger's defense tactics may cause debate, it is the courtroom that will deliver the final verdict on his alleged involvement in the devastating murders.

In an unsettling incident last month, a 34-year-old man, identified as Brandon Lee Buschman, was found deceased in an antiquated chest freezer in a vacant residence. The Gilbert Police Department attended the scene at 304 4th Ave. in Biwabik, Minnesota and noted that the freezer had a peculiar feature – an old-fashioned latching mechanism outside, making it impossible to push open from within.   Officers received the distressing report about the body on June 26 at 3:30 p.m. Upon arriving at the scene, they discovered the freezer was stowed away in the property's basement. The appliance was not connected to electricity, with the utilities in the residence having been shut off since April 2022. According to the police, the property had been unoccupied since February 2022.    The freezer was described as an older model. Its construction included a feature that, in modern times, would be deemed a safety hazard: an external latching mechanism. The design was such that once shut, the latch could not be manipulated from inside the freezer. The chilling scenario that unfolded as a result is a stark reminder of how design choices once deemed acceptable can have dire consequences.    Buschman, the victim in this case, had reportedly been on the run due to an outstanding warrant for his arrest. The specific charges that led to the warrant remain unspecified by the Gilbert Police. According to the police statement, Buschman entered the freezer on his own, likely seeking a hiding spot, spurred by the fear of possible police presence. He was last seen fleeing towards the upstairs area of the house.    Investigators at the scene found a metal rod, presumably a lawn ornament, lodged in a desperate bid to unlatch the freezer from the inside. The rod was jammed between the gasket and the edge of the freezer, making it impossible to manipulate the latch. This discovery paints a harrowing picture of Buschman's final moments, underscoring the tragic outcome of his hide-and-seek with law enforcement.    The Midwest Medical Examiner's Office undertook an autopsy and stated that no signs of trauma or injury were found on Buschman's body. Despite this preliminary observation, the final autopsy results are pending. This incident has brought forth numerous questions that only the completion of the police investigation and the final autopsy report can hope to answer.   The tragic and peculiar circumstances of Brandon Lee Buschman's death are a chilling reminder of the lengths people may go to evade the law and the unforeseen dangers lurking in the most mundane objects when fear sets in. It highlights the importance of safety considerations in everyday appliances and brings to the forefront the dire need for properties to be appropriately secured, particularly when vacant.

In an unfolding story of crime and justice, the Michigan Attorney General's Office announced on June 30 that a man wanted for murder charges, who had managed to escape from custody, had been apprehended in Lincoln County, Montana. The suspect, identified as 42-year-old Chadwick Shane Mobley, was being transported back to Michigan, facing charges linked to a decade-old murder case. The case was re-ignited in 2022 after new DNA evidence allegedly linked Mobley to the fatal shooting of Andrea Eilber in 2011.    The murder of Andrea Eilber, who was found dead with a gunshot wound to the head at a relative's residence in Lapeer, Michigan, has been a long-standing case on the books. Despite the initial discovery of DNA evidence at the scene, the case went cold as the testing did not produce any results. However, investigators revisited the evidence in 2022, leading them to Mobley. The charges brought against him include first-degree murder, felony murder, and felony firearm.    The saga took an unexpected turn on July 9. As Mobley was being transported back to Michigan by U.S. Marshals, a stop at the Plains Town Pump gas station in Montana resulted in an audacious escape attempt. In a shocking lapse of security, Mobley somehow managed to free himself from his handcuffs and ankle shackles and disappeared from the area.    The escape prompted an immediate alert from the Sanders County Sheriff's Office, warning local residents to secure their homes and vehicles and to keep a vigilant eye out for Mobley. The alert marked the beginning of a nearly 32-hour manhunt.    Relief arrived on July 10, when at 6:08 p.m., Mobley was finally located and apprehended by the Sanders County Sheriff's Office and the Plains Police Department. Following the security lapse, officials in Sanders County announced that they would not be using a third-party service for Mobley's transport back to Michigan.    However, the capture of Mobley is only one facet of an ongoing drama. Officials are also engaged in an extensive search for Michael Burham, another inmate who made a daring escape from the Warren County Prison in Pennsylvania. Burham, who was in custody on charges of arson and burglary, is also a person of interest in a separate homicide case. Further escalating the seriousness of his escape, Burham is accused of carjacking and kidnapping a couple in a desperate bid to evade capture.    According to the Erie Times-News, Burham managed his escape by scaling the prison roof using a pull-up machine in the prison yard, and then employing sheets tied together to descend the prison walls. Pennsylvania State Police Lt. Col. George Bivens added to the chilling narrative, describing Burham as a "self-taught survivalist with military training" and "very dangerous."    As the search for Burham continues, officials believe that he may be receiving outside assistance. Authorities have reportedly discovered small stockpiles or campsites in the surrounding wooded areas, containing supplies that would assist him with a prolonged stay in the wilderness.    The separate yet interconnected stories of Mobley and Burham present a sobering view of the ongoing battles in the fight for justice. As authorities continue to close in on Burham, they hope justice will soon be served in the cold case of Andrea Eilber. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts Ad-Free?

In a saga that continues to baffle the public, the story of Rudy Farias, a Houston man who was believed to be missing for eight years, only to be found living in his family home, raises more questions than it answers. As the narrative unfolds, contrasting accounts have led to a burning question - who, in this perplexing drama, is telling the truth?    Rudy Farias vanished from public life at the age of 18, with his disappearance being reported by his mother, Janie Santana, in March 2015. Santana led the public and law enforcement to believe her son was missing, leading to a significant search operation and widespread media coverage. Fast forward to June 2023, Farias reappeared under inexplicable circumstances, leading to a stunning revelation - he had been living in his family home all along.    Farias' account of his 'disappearance' paints a chilling picture of psychological manipulation. He alleges that Santana held him captive, not through physical force, but through the potency of her threats and negativity, likening his living conditions to a "prison". He claims Santana convinced him he would face arrest if he ever surfaced and that he was forced to assume false identities in previous interactions with the police.    These allegations, as harrowing as they are, directly contradict the narrative that Santana had previously presented. In earlier interviews, she portrayed herself as a distraught mother searching tirelessly for her missing son. Her claims were underscored by alleged sightings and clues that she provided to private investigators, which, upon review, could not be independently verified and led to dead ends.    The Houston Police Department (HPD), too, have thrown their hat into the ring. Their stance is that Farias was never missing, alleging that Santana continued to deceive them, and the public, long after Farias returned home. According to HPD, there were previous instances where Farias and Santana gave false names and birthdates to patrol officers.    The conflicting stories presented by Farias, Santana, and HPD have left the public struggling to decipher the truth. Whose version of events holds water? Is Farias a victim of psychological imprisonment, or is there more to the story than meets the eye? Could the police department have done more in their initial investigation? These questions remain largely unanswered, fueling public interest and speculation.    In this high-stakes game of he-said, she-said, determining the truth is no easy task. As the story continues to unfold, the public, much like the investigators on the case, must grapple with the competing narratives. Amid the baffling details of the Rudy Farias saga, the quest for truth proves to be an intricate puzzle, one that will keep the nation captivated as it untangles.

Sandra and Josh Greenberg, in a conversation with Tony Brueski, voiced their concerns regarding the investigation into their daughter Ellen Greenberg's death, suggesting that the Philadelphia Police Department influenced the Medical Examiner to prematurely conclude it as a suicide. The Greenbergs, unable to reconcile the circumstances of their daughter's death with such a verdict, continue to question the integrity of the investigation. They hold firm in their belief that Ellen was murdered, and this alleged manipulation is indicative of a cover-up. This latest revelation is part of their ongoing quest for justice for their daughter and a reexamination of her case.

In a significant development in the ongoing University of Idaho murder case, the accused, Bryan Kohberger, has made a bold legal move. According to recently filed court documents, he has filed a motion for a stay in proceedings, pointing towards an alleged substantial failure to adhere to the selection procedures for the grand jury.    Kohberger's contention in his sworn statement of facts seems to argue that his right to a fair trial has been compromised due to non-compliance with grand jury selection protocols. However, Latah County prosecutors have not taken this claim lightly and immediately lodged an objection against the motion. Their rebuttal signifies a heightened legal tussle in a case that has already garnered much public interest and scrutiny.    Presiding over this case, Judge John C. Judge made a crucial determination deeming Kohberger's motion as premature, given that Kohberger and his defense team had yet to review the grand jury records in their entirety. While the request for an indefinite stay of proceedings was unequivocally denied, Judge was not entirely dismissive of Kohberger's concerns.    In a balanced approach, Judge granted a 37-day stay, providing Kohberger and his defense team with an opportunity to thoroughly review the grand jury material. By doing so, Judge ensured the accused's right to a fair and impartial trial while maintaining the integrity of the justice system.    This move by the court doesn't affect any other aspects of this convoluted case, nor does it derail the scheduled start date of the trial. It seems to be a tactical pause in the proceedings, allowing for any potential irregularities in the grand jury process to be identified and rectified if necessary.    A follow-up hearing has been slated for August 18th to reassess Kohberger's motion. This upcoming hearing will be crucial in determining the trajectory of this case. As the story continues to unfold, the public and the legal fraternity eagerly await the outcome of this high-stakes legal battle.    Undeniably, the University of Idaho murder case has taken another twist with this recent development. As Bryan Kohberger's defense team prepares to dive into the grand jury records, their findings could potentially shape the course of this case, making the August hearing a pivotal point in this already complex legal saga.

In the latest edition of Murder In The Morning, Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole delve deep into the enigmatic case of Rudy Farias, a Houston man who was reported missing as a teenager and suddenly reappeared after eight years. A saga filled with allegations of deceit and abuse, the case turns dark with Farias' cousin, Michelle Rodriguez, accusing Farias' mother of years of maltreatment and accusing the Houston Police Department of a potential "cover-up."    The story began on March 7, 2015, when Farias' mother, Janie Santana, reported him missing at the age of 17. His unexpected reappearance on June 29, 2023, was initially celebrated as a "miracle", but in a startling twist, police revealed that Farias was never actually missing. According to Lt. Christopher Zamora, Farias returned home the day after his mother reported him missing, and both Santana and Farias provided law enforcement with "fictitious names and dates of birth".   In a web of allegations and contradictions, activist Quanell X claimed that Farias had reported being sexually abused by his mother for years - a claim denied by the police. Meanwhile, Rodriguez, in her interview with FOX7, alleges that the abuse had started before the missing person report. She said, "His mother had been seen by my late grandma causing abuse to Rudy sexually, physically, mentally. This did not just start when Janie reported Rudy missing."   The layers of deceit run deeper, with Santana allegedly using the funds raised to search for her supposedly kidnapped son for personal use. Quanell X alleged that she used the funds for vacations and personal expenses. Despite these revelations, the district attorney declined to charge Santana for the fake reports, although the investigation is ongoing.   Rodriguez, in an emotionally charged statement, insisted on the truth being revealed, saying, "It's all going to come out, you can't hide, nothing is going to be hidden, so whatever you think you can hide, good luck it's coming out."   The case takes a further grim turn with Pauline Sanchez Rodriguez, Farias' aunt, expressing frustration with the authorities' inaction. She told reporters that her late mother, Rosa Sosa Rodriguez, had been living with Santana and had repeatedly informed relatives that Farias was at their house. Court records suggest a troubled history with Santana, as her 2012 marriage was annulled due to accusations of her having at least five other spouses.   Join Brueski and Cole as they dissect this twisted narrative of alleged deceit and abuse, in an episode that highlights the lengths to which individuals might go to maintain a façade of falsehood. It's a chilling examination of the human capacity for deceit and the terrible price paid by those caught in its web. . Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts Ad-Free?
