Why Wait Till 2025 For Kohberger Trial?
Mar 14, 11:00 PM
The trial of Brian Koberger, charged in the tragic case involving the deaths of Kaylee Gonsalves and Zena Kernoodle, faces scrutiny for its protracted pace, with a potential start not until spring of 2025. Families of the victims express their frustration and plea for justice, urging the judicial system to expedite the process to allow them to start healing from the unimaginable loss.
In a discussion with psychologist John Delatorre on the "Hidden Killers" podcast, the psychological toll on the victims' families due to the slow-moving trial is explored. Trials, inherently focused on determining the defendant's guilt or innocence, inadvertently prolong the families' agony, a situation that Delatorre acknowledges is a hard reality of the legal process. He emphasizes that the judicial system's pace, while seemingly slow, is moving as swiftly as possible given the complexity of the case.
Delatorre points out that the right to a speedy trial primarily protects the defendant, ensuring they are not unjustly detained without a verdict. He argues that the intricacies of the case, involving multiple victims and extensive evidence, necessitate thorough examination, making the timeline understandable yet painfully slow for those seeking closure.
The conversation also delves into the defense's strategy and the length of time taken to process evidence and potentially present an alibi. Delatorre suggests that establishing reasonable doubt is a significant factor in the defense's approach, which can be time-consuming, especially when attempting to identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case.
Speculation around the delay in presenting an alibi witness is raised, with Delatorre hinting at possible credibility issues that might need resolution before such a witness is brought forward. This careful preparation reflects the defense's need to ensure any alibi is watertight and capable of withstanding prosecutorial scrutiny.
