What Other Unfounded Accusations Will Kohberger's Attorney Make?
Aug 11, 2023, 01:00 PM
A recent episode of the popular podcast "Hidden Killers" invited renowned FBI special agent and former Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Robin Dreeke, to weigh in on a controversial case and its convoluted defense strategies. Host Tony Brueski led the discussion on the defense's claims of evidence planting, procedural errors, and elusive alibis.
There was a considerable focus on the defense attorney’s tactics of "pulling things out of the air," a statement Dreeke concurred with, "It'll be great when things are finally unsealed and the gag order's off so we can actually see what's going on. She's doing a fantastic job, she's doing her job as best as she can."
Dreeke inferred that the defense attorney’s strategy of spreading "seeds of doubt" could be viewed as a desperate attempt to sway public opinion in their favor. Online sleuths have been digging through every nuance of the case. Dreeke expressed skepticism regarding a legitimate alibi or any evidence that could divert blame away from the accused, "We'd hear about it," he said.
Brueski questioned whether these unsubstantiated claims could potentially undermine the defense’s credibility in the long run. He likened it to the "boy who cried wolf" scenario, posing the question of whether this strategy could backfire if the defense is seen as spreading baseless information.
Dreeke offered an interesting perspective, arguing that the defense attorney, with her vast experience and thorough knowledge of jury behavior, wouldn't recklessly undermine her own credibility. He opined, "I always err on the side of it was very thoughtful, it had a lot of intention behind it."
The discussion then veered towards the complexities of gag orders and the games being played with public knowledge. Both Brueski and Dreeke surmised that more evidence exists than what the public is currently privy to, pointing to the possibility of a "treasure trove" of information yet to be revealed. "My assumption would be that there's more DNA and there are more things behind the scenes that we'll find out once this thing gets underway," Brueski said.
Dreeke agreed, crediting the defense attorney for maximizing the restrictions imposed by the gag order, planting seeds of distrust using information already in the public domain. This raises further intrigue and doubt, giving the defense an edge until the gag order is lifted.
An interesting point was the prosecution's request for information about the alibi. Brueski considered this indicative of the prosecution's complete lack of knowledge about any alibi, highlighting the defense's desperate tactics. Dreeke concluded, "I'm hard-pressed to think she knows anything they don't know."
The conversation on "Hidden Killers" provided a comprehensive examination of a contentious defense strategy, offering unique insights into the nuances of courtroom tactics and the power of public perception. As the gag order lifts and more evidence comes to light, the true efficacy of these strategies will undoubtedly be put to the test.
