Bryan Kohberger’s Lawyers Wanted THIS to Communicate With Him
Bryan Kohberger studied criminology at the doctoral level, and his own defense team told a judge they needed outside help getting through to him. That’s in a sealed May 2025 filing, unsealed on September 22, 2026, that his new attorney, Greg Rauch, is using to challenge the guilty plea. Anne Taylor’s team wrote that Kohberger was having difficulty comprehending adverse rulings and fitting them into a rational assessment of his case. In the same filing, they expressly denied he was incompetent. Judge Steven Hippler refused to delay the case on June 26, 2025, and Kohberger pleaded guilty six days later to killing four University of Idaho students. Rauch argues the judge knew all of this before accepting the plea. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis explains how a lawyer can say a client can’t follow his own case and still isn’t incompetent, and why that line matters for the plea.
