Bryan Kohberger Said This About His Lawyers Under Oath

Bryan Kohberger told the court he was satisfied with his attorneys when he pleaded guilty in the Idaho 4 case in July 2025. A year later, he filed a post-conviction petition claiming those same attorneys coerced him.

Judge Steven Hippler emptied the calendar on October 14, 2026. Kohberger's amended petition is due January 13, and witness and expert disclosures are due February 1.

Latah County deputy prosecutor Keith Scholl wants the petition thrown out without a hearing, arguing it's bare and unsupported. He also says Kohberger's claim of innocence isn't one Idaho law recognizes.

Kohberger's lead attorney, Anne Taylor, had asked Hippler for more time before the plea. Her sealed memo told the judge Kohberger could not rationally assess his case. Hippler denied the request, and the memo has since been ordered turned over to prosecutors.

I ask defense lawyer Bob Motta and ex-FBI agent Robin Dreeke whether Taylor's memo helps Kohberger or proves she did her job.
