Joining me an 68 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 4: all star panel to make sense of everything that's going 69 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 4: on in that courtroom, and. 70 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: There is a lot. 71 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 4: But first to Kaitlin Hornick, joining us editor at the 72 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 4: US Sun, Caitlin, thank you for being with us. I'm 73 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 4: going to get to the moon of the stars, all right. 74 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 4: I've already researched the whole thing on the Farmer's Almanac, Caitlin, 75 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 4: What is this about no stalking? 76 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: Are we losing motive for murder? 77 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 9: You know, Nancy, I think there are a lot of 78 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 9: things still play that this jury ultimately will have to uncover. 79 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 9: The thing that's really sticking out to me is the 80 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 9: you know, the back and forth with the stocking. I 81 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 9: don't know how you can go from saying that there 82 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 9: were these messages exchanged on Instagram and that the photos 83 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 9: on the camera roll to saying, oh no, wait, that's 84 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 9: that's not true. That's actually not true. You know, I 85 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 9: think there are a lot of things that the prosecutors 86 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 9: need to be honest about and that they need to 87 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 9: lay out in plane terms facts about what actually went on. Personally, 88 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 9: I think the fact that his that Coburger's prosecutors doubled 89 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 9: down on his alibi is equal parts shocking and you know, 90 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 9: just kind of crazy when you think about it. 91 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm thinking about that well, watching the Moon and 92 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 4: Stars aspect of this.

Well, I feel like I'm getting bit in 98 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 4: the neck with this thing. But all along we have 99 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 4: heard police stating we don't have evidence of stalking. 100 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: We've heard that from the get go. 101 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 4: But yet we've seen screens and heard evidence that there 102 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 4: was stalking by Coburger on at least one of the victims, 103 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 4: if not more. So are we going to have a 104 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 4: Johnny cochrane asque defense, No stalking, no murder, no motive. 105 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, its certainly doesn't help the States case. 106 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 10: Motive is not something that they have to prove. It's 107 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 10: not like you know, an element of the charges. But 108 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 10: what it does is explain the why behind the crimes, 109 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 10: and jurors always want to know why why did this happen? 110 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: Guys. 111 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 4: As a matter of fact, it goes way back. Take 112 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 4: a listen to Police Captain Roger Lanier. 113 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 2: We have heard mentioned that Kaylee stated she may have 114 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: had a stalker. Detectives have been looking into that and 115 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 2: to this point have been unable to corroborate the statement. 116 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: Although we continue to seek information and tips regarding that report, 117 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: no suspects have been named or arrested, and we continue 118 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: looking for what we will leave to be a fixed 119 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: blade knife used in the murders. 120 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 4: That knife never found and neither has there been found 121 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 4: evidence of stalking. Again, I can hear it ringing in 122 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,119 Speaker 4: my ears right now. 123 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: No motive, no murder. 124 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 4: Joining me as I said an All Star panel to 125 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 4: Chris mcdunna, joining US director Cold Case Foundation, former homicide 126 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 4: detective on the interview. 127 00:07:58,960 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: Room on YouTube. 128 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 4: Chris mcdonna, of course, the state, as you know from 129 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 4: handling so many homicides, never has to prove motive. But 130 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 4: in many people's minds, there should be a motive presented 131 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 4: to a jury, because how could a jury believe that 132 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 4: someone that doesn't know these four victims would just randomly 133 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 4: choose them and murder them. 134 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: To quote, see what it feels like. 135 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 4: That's going to be a tough sell, especially now that 136 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 4: we find out the state has also learned the defenses, 137 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 4: bringing on cell phone and radio frequency data to refute 138 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 4: claims Coburger was in the area of the murders at 139 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 4: the time of the murders. The state is getting torpedoed 140 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 4: left and right. Now we've lost motive. 141 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 11: The stalking, Yeah, Natcy, I mean, one of the most 142 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 11: interesting things, and it may just be semantics, is when 143 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 11: Thompson was arguing with the expert witness of the defense 144 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 11: put on, he mentioned that there's no evidence of witnesses. 145 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 3: Being stalked. I thought that was a very interesting choice 146 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 3: of words versus victims. This may be a cover play 147 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 3: as well by the state, because you know, you've got 148 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 3: to now think about we've got some amateur, you know, 149 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 3: astronomer I e. Koberger, you know, exercising in the middle 150 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 3: of the night. Yet his cell phone shows up twelve 151 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 3: separate times around the crime scene. 152 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 4: This as we were learning and correct me if I'm wrong. 153 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:35,119 Speaker 4: Caitlin Hornick joining us from the US SUN. But the polster, 154 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 4: the surveyor that was hired by the defense to call 155 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 4: at least four hundred prospective gurrrs, asked the gurrrs about stalking, 156 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 4: and we heard Prosecutor Bill. 157 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: Thompson say, you knew that wasn't true, and you. 158 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 4: Asked people, you put it out there in the ether 159 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 4: that there was stalking. And the guy responds, I don't 160 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 4: care if it's true or false. 161 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: He actually said that in a court of law. Did 162 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: that happen? 163 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 9: Caitlin, You know, I think one of the biggest things 164 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:12,239 Speaker 9: at play here that the whole the prosecution that Coburger, 165 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 9: that everyone involved is struggling with is misinformation.

As prime suspect Brian Coberger claims 198 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 4: he was out alone watching the moon at stars at 199 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 4: four am. To Joe Scott Morgan, how difficult is it 200 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 4: to pull that up? Because I found it pretty quickly 201 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 4: the night sky at eleven fifty pm November twelve, throughout 202 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 4: the morning was basically very low visibility. And Joe Scott, 203 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 4: before you answer that, I'm looking throughout the night three 204 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 4: seventeen am overcast, three fifty three am. That's the time 205 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 4: of the murders, ice and fog. Four fifty three overcast, 206 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 4: five fifty three overcast, six fifty three overcast. 207 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: So what's he looking at? 208 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 7: Nothing? I mean, how can he see? You know, unless 209 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 7: he has some kind of special ability, how are you 210 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 7: going to be able to go out and appreciate this? 211 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 7: And you're talking about a layer fog nancy as well, 212 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 7: because that's going to settle between your view of the 213 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 7: sky and yourself your position relative to the sky, all right, 214 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 7: So it's not just simply that it's overcast. It's like 215 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 7: you begin to think about fog that's perhaps over there. 216 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 7: It's kind of you know, how they use the term Nancy, 217 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 7: a blanket of fog. You begin to think about that, 218 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 7: So that's even going to further obscure your view. 219 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 4: So I'm looking at this the cloud cover on Saturday, 220 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 4: November twelve, twenty twenty two, in Moscow, Idaho, cloud coverage, 221 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 4: the height of dominant cloud layer very very thick and 222 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 4: overcast that night. There is not only overcast, but ice 223 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 4: and fog. And you know what I think would be 224 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 4: a fantastic courtroom demonstration, And of course, Tara Malek, Tara Malic, 225 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 4: high profile lawyer joining US side of this jurisdiction. Tara, 226 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 4: wouldn't it be a great demonstration to turn off all 227 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 4: the lights in the courtroom and try to recreate the conditions, 228 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 4: maybe with possibly an overhead projector of some sort of 229 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 4: the stars. 230 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: In the moon. 231 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 4: How little you could see that night. That would be 232 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 4: tough to do. Maybe there's some sort of a satellite 233 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 4: picture from that night. I bet there is that could 234 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 4: be achieved by the stake to show the jury, maybe 235 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 4: from the US Weather Service, how overcast it really was 236 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 4: that night. 237 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: And for him to be out at four a m. 238 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 4: Stargazing what a SACA Let me just say bs technical 239 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 4: legal term. 240 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: I mean Is this really happening. 241 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 10: Tara, Yeah, I mean again, this is a weak alibi 242 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 10: that's being put forward, and I agree if there's a 243 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 10: way to demonstrate or show a picture about what the 244 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 10: sky looked like that night, I would I certainly think 245 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 10: that would help the prosecution's case in poking holes in 246 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 10: this alibi defense. 247 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 4: I'm wondering if they're going to use cell phone data 248 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 4: to suggest Coburger was elsewhere at the time of the 249 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 4: murders looking at the stars, because that elsewhere is out 250 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 4: in the middle of nowhere. 251 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, it seems like that they're going to rely on 252 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 10: cell phone data to say he was out at a 253 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 10: park's stargazing. But you know, again, where is this park 254 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 10: and is the park within the route of you know, 255 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 10: the secuitas kind of route that we've already know and 256 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 10: talked about that he took to get over to the victims' homes. 257 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 10: So there's a lot to be seen here. And it 258 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 10: seems like the defense is also saying we still don't 259 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 10: have the discovery that we need to get all this 260 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 10: information out and to support our alibi. 261 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 6: I ve justifying you don't care if the information that 262 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,359 Speaker 6: you're put in your specific questions to other people getting surveyors. 263 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 4: Correct. 264 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 3: You said that in you right. 265 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 8: I don't know what you mean by correct, true or false. 266 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 3: I care about whether or not I's proliferated by the media. 267 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 6: You don't care if it's true. 268 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 3: No, I don't. I know everybody's aid prejudiction. 269 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 6: So it's okay to taint people who have never heard 270 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 6: that information for for the end result of identifying others 271 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 6: who have who might have bias. 272 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 12: I'm going to object to the questions he's he's a badgery. 273 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 4: So why is it that the only corroboration Mark Taye 274 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 4: that Bilburger is. 275 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: Bringing on is a set of cell phone paings. 276 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 13: But there's nothing wrong with that. The prosecution has indicated 277 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 13: they're going to rely on cell phone pings. And the 278 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 13: rule the law about Alibi and Idah who is anytime 279 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 13: after arraignment you're allowed to tell the defendants tell the 280 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 13: prosecutors rather that you're going to rely on Alibi and 281 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 13: you have to disclose your witnesses. However, here the witnesses 282 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 13: are cell phone pings, just like the prosecutions relying on 283 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 13: cell phone pings. So is the defendant rely allowed to 284 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 13: rely as well? Now of course that's going to be 285 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 13: put in front of a jury, just like issues about 286 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 13: whether he wore gloves and how strange that is. All 287 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 13: of that will be admitted by witnesses, all of whom 288 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 13: are subject to a sifting cross examination. And so now 289 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 13: the prosecution knows there's going to be an alibi defense, 290 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 13: and when there is, it has to be supported by 291 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 13: admissible evidence. And so with each witness comes the chance 292 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 13: you're reading the. 293 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 4: Criminal Code on evidence to me, I got it. 294 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 13: So that's what the defense has to do. That's what 295 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 13: they have to do. 296 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 4: Let's give Mark, you have to hold the prosecutions. 297 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 13: Well, what is it you're going to wear gloves? 298 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: Cell phone pings? 299 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 4: I've got a pair here for you, but maybe you 300 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 4: could borrow Koburger's. 301 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: Oh wait, no, they're an evidence joining me. 302 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 4: Chris McDonough, you were talking about the pings and you 303 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 4: didn't get to say it on air. But Tate is 304 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 4: all about, Oh, the pings are going to help exonerate him. 305 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 4: Wait a minute, Okay, he's at home to forty two, 306 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 4: he's at hum back at home at five point twenty seven. 307 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 4: He's at home at not ninety thirty two am.

Wow, Chris mcdonne, 313 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 4: isn't that exactly when the time the murders occurred? 314 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely, Nancy. And what's interesting at that and you 315 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 3: pointed it out. You know, the one thing we learned 316 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 3: about this alibi as well is all four of the 317 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 3: victims are sound asleep.

But in this particular case, you have the 320 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 3: phone things that get up to the point where they 321 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 3: turn off and then all of a sudden, the video 322 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 3: picks it back up in the neighborhood, i e. The car. 323 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 3: Whenever you hear a defense attorney shay, you know, the 324 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 3: public has a right to know, and there's a gag order, 325 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 3: that's usually a clue that there's something coming. 326 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. 327 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 4: Chief suspect Brian Coburger says he's out alone driving in 328 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:39,360 Speaker 4: the late night and early morning hours November twelve and thirteen, 329 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 4: but the trial judge doubles down on Coburger's defense team, 330 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 4: insisting you've got to hand over a witness other than the. 331 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: Moon and the stars. 332 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 4: The defense likely to rely on cell phone data to 333 00:19:55,160 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 4: try and place Brian Coburger somewhere anywhere there than the 334 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 4: King Roade address. The judge says he was out driving 335 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 4: during the late night and early morning hours November twelve 336 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 4: to thirteen, twenty twenty two. 337 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 1: That's his alibi. 338 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 4: The judge doubled down on Coburger in court in the 339 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 4: last hour, saying, you've got to give us a witness 340 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 4: or the evidence you're bringing on to corroborate this. 341 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: What do I think It is no witness at all. 342 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 4: It's going to be cell phone data, The defense claims 343 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 4: places Coburger somewhere entirely different than the King Wrote address. 344 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: Let's see the. 345 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:42,159 Speaker 4: Timeline, isn't it true, Caitlin Hornick that Coburger we can 346 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 4: prove turned his phone off and on the night of 347 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 4: the murders. 348 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: Just to yes, no, yes, absolutely, two forty two. His 349 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: phone is on at his apartment in Pullman. I went there. 350 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 4: It's about an eight minute drive from the murder scene 351 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 4: eight to twelve minutes to forty seven, he turns his 352 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 4: phone off. Who on this panel turns your phone off 353 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 4: when you're going driving in the middle of the night. 354 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 4: I would keep mine on just in case I had 355 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 4: a nine to one one. Anyway, he turns his off. 356 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 4: We know that, and that is irrefutable. I'm gonna circle 357 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 4: back in a moment to Bill Slater, who says, you 358 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 4: gotta take your battery out of your phone to be 359 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 4: untraceable just turning it off. Hey, we know you're doing that. 360 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 4: Two forty seven. This guy is up and about turning 361 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 4: his phone off. Three point twenty nine. Not cell phone, 362 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 4: but video surveillance from a nearby home a residence shows 363 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,719 Speaker 4: a white Saedan passing the King Road address that looks 364 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 4: oops just like his white Elantra. 365 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: For zero four. 366 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 4: The sedan returns and stops in front of the King 367 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 4: Road address four twenty Sixteen minutes later, the white Sadan 368 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 4: scratches off off, taking off like a bat out of 369 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 4: Hell at a high speed, leaving the King Road address. 370 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 4: And then twenty eight minutes later and for me, it 371 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 4: was about an hour drive four forty eight a m 372 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 4: twenty eight minutes later, that phone is turned back on 373 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 4: and it's pinging south of Moscow, Idaho State Highway ninety five. 374 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 4: I took that drive to Professor Forensics, Jacksonville State University, 375 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,199 Speaker 4: author of Blood Beneath My Feet on Amazon, star of 376 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 4: a hit series, Body Bags, and most important for me 377 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 4: right now, for expert and death investigator Just Scott. He's 378 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 4: between a rock and a hard spot. I want you 379 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 4: to analyze everything Slater. 380 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: Has told us, but also we are. 381 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 4: Poking a little bit of fun at the moon and 382 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 4: the stargazing alibi. 383 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: But think about it, what else is Ann Taylor, the 384 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: defense lawyer, going to say he was the party with 385 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: all of his friends. That ain't happening. 386 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 4: They got to come up with something to make sense 387 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 4: to a jury why he may have been out driving around. 388 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 4: The only thing they can do is refute the cell 389 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 4: phone data because that videos. 390 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: I don't think it's got its car. 391 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 7: Tag, No it doesn't. But that's all they can do, Nancy, 392 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,439 Speaker 7: isn't it You know, when you begin to think about it, 393 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 7: they can. They're muddy in the waters with all of 394 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:39,640 Speaker 7: this digital back and forth. Here's the one thing that 395 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 7: they cannot overcome. Get this number in your mind, five 396 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 7: point three seven optilion that goes to his DNA profile. 397 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 7: That means that the chances that it was somebody else 398 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 7: are at that range. It's amazing. And look look what 399 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 7: I have here. See it came off the snap, Nancy. 400 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: Again, because that's exactly where the DNA was found. 401 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I don't think that he was necessarily, you know, 402 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 7: planning on this. But listen, I don't know if you 403 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 7: could hear that, but this has got and I'm fascinated 404 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 7: by this. I have been since the case. This little 405 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 7: ring right here where the snap actually actuates, it's a ridge, 406 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 7: and so if you're actuating it with your thumb and 407 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 7: you drag your thumb across it, anything can be collected 408 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 7: in here. We think about touch DNA. If he's got sweat, 409 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 7: you know, that's coming off of his hand, it could 410 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 7: be deposited there. Both are sources for DNA, ones richer 411 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 7: than the other. But you know, when you begin to 412 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 7: think about these numbers, Nancy, and just to put it 413 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 7: in perspective, I'm not a real fine math guy, but 414 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 7: that's twenty twenty seven zero's Nancy. That's an amazing number. 415 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 7: And so the reason I'm saying this is that I 416 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 7: don't think they have anything else. And they can parade 417 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 7: all of the experts up there that they want to, 418 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 7: but the one thing you can't get away from at 419 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 7: the end of the day. Yeah, they don't have the knife, 420 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 7: but they've got this sheath and his DNA is on it, 421 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,719 Speaker 7: and that's a heck of a mountain for them to 422 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 7: have to climb. This was not murder. This was pure 423 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 7: on butchery using this combat knife. This is a k bar. 424 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 7: This is something that our troopers have used since just 425 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 7: prior to World War Two. Marines are famous for it. 426 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 7: It's a combat knife, it's a fighting knife. When all 427 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 7: of that is said and done and we see the 428 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 7: interior of that house and we see what kind of 429 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 7: butchery was perpetrated on these poor kids, they better damn 430 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 7: well have something else because that dog gonna hunt, because 431 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 7: the jury is going to be put into position to 432 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 7: observe all of this, and then you're going to get 433 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 7: somebody with a PhD in DNA sciences and they're going 434 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 7: to put them up on the stand and I don't know, 435 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 7: I don't know what the defense can put up there 436 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 7: that can thwart that particular attack on the part of 437 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 7: the defense. 438 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 4: Hey Scott, You've testified it in so many cases. And 439 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 4: when I would prepare cases for trial, I'll get my 440 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 4: own case ready rock solid. 441 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: Right then I. 442 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 4: Would think about what they were going to do and 443 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 4: how I could fight it. Do you remember under Reagan 444 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,679 Speaker 4: he came up with the Star Wars defense. We were 445 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 4: going to shoot down missiles before they ever hit our homeland, 446 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 4: the US, right right, Yeah, that's what I try to do. 447 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 4: So I'm thinking what are they going to do and 448 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 4: how can I destroy it? They are going to attack 449 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 4: the DNA, the science itself. 450 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: Which you know, five point three seven octillion. 451 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 4: I think is more war people that have ever in 452 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 4: history that we have lived on Earth. Okay, so it's him, 453 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 4: But what they could do is attack DNA science in general. 454 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 4: But they could attack chain of custody of the DNA. 455 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 4: They are likely to pull an OJ claiming that O. J. 456 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 4: Simpson claiming that the cops wanted a defendant so badly 457 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 4: they decided depending on Coburger, but also the placement of 458 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 4: the knife and the genesis of the knife, Joe Scott. 459 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 4: They could claim, Hey, yeah, I went to a gun 460 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 4: and knife show and hipped up a knife like that, 461 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,719 Speaker 4: and I tested it and I put it back, and 462 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 4: some other dude, I always used the sod defense. 463 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: Some other dude did it. Must have used that knife. 464 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 1: That's where they're going to go. I think, yeah, I. 465 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 7: Agree with you, and I've thought. I've put a lot 466 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 7: of thought into that relative to gun and knife shows, 467 00:27:55,560 --> 00:28:00,719 Speaker 7: you know, and the idea that he would randomly, you know, 468 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 7: you guys in law use this term reasonableness. Is that reasonable. 469 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: Crime stories? With Nancy Grace. 470 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 4: While Brian Coburger's defense team tries their best to alibi him, 471 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 4: to place him anywhere other than the crime scene, damning 472 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 4: video emerges of a white Elantra identical to coburgers near 473 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 4: the King wrote address. 474 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: That's the crime scene. 475 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 12: Part of the hearing on the fourteenth is to talk 476 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 12: about the different parts of that video that we've received 477 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 12: and how we need the whole contacts. This is the 478 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 12: video that they say places this car near the residents. 479 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 12: We've received little tiny pieces of that. We think Brian's 480 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 12: right to a fair trial means the public needs to 481 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 12: know that they've withheld the audio from a great portion 482 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 12: of that. And then it starts a long time before 483 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 12: the little clip that we've received. 484 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: Man, is she burying the lead? 485 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 4: She's complaining about the audio not being attached to the video. 486 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: Here's the bombshell. 487 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 4: There you are hearing the defense attorney for Brian Koburger 488 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 4: and Taylor talking about the existence of video that places 489 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 4: Coburger's car, the white Elantra, near the crime scene. 490 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the big deal. 491 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 4: We believe that there's gonna be two different video clips 492 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 4: shown to the jury, one near the home and one 493 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 4: near the gas station there at the corner. And I'm 494 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 4: gonna let Chris mcdonnet describe the gas station video what 495 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 4: he believes it will portray, and what the video at 496 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 4: the home we believe is going to portray. Guys with me, 497 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 4: an all star panel makes sense of what we. 498 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: Know right now. 499 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 4: Oh you know what, I was just having my tea 500 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 4: and I don't want to leave fingerprints on the cup, 501 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 4: so I just thought I would use these. Okay, but 502 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 4: that said, go hey, Chris McDonald everybody, take off your gloves. 503 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 4: I promise not to collect your DNA, well not during 504 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 4: the show anyway. 505 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: Go ahead. 506 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, so Nancy loved the gloves. Right next to the 507 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 3: murder scene, there's a house right on the corner there, 508 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 3: and outside in the light socket for the front porch 509 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 3: was an active surveillance camera. I believe that the evidence 510 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 3: will show that that car comes up that street multiple times, 511 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 3: and those are the clips that they're holding back, as 512 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 3: well as the additional piece of evidence that they're going 513 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 3: to show is away from the scene. They're going to 514 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: show that that vehicle was either a coming into the 515 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 3: crime scene area and or be leaving. And I don't 516 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 3: know if they're going to be able to correlate that 517 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 3: in a relationship to some of the phone things, because 518 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 3: remember he turned his phone off, so that und of itself, 519 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 3: it's going to be interesting. 520 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: Guys. 521 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 4: I want to hear exactly what the defense attorney and 522 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 4: Taylor said and interwhining about the video. 523 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: What are we learning? Listen. 524 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 12: Part of the hearing on the fourteenth is to talk 525 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 12: about the different parts of that video that we've received 526 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 12: and how we need the whole contacts. This is the 527 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 12: video that they say places this car near the residents. 528 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 12: We've received little tiny pieces of that. We think Brian's 529 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 12: right to a fair trial means the public needs to 530 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 12: know that they've withheld the audio from a great portion 531 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 12: of that and that it starts a long time before 532 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 12: the little clip that we've received. 533 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 4: To Essin Scott Morgan, forensic expert and professor at Jacksonville 534 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 4: State University, I was listening to every word she says. 535 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 4: And Taylor is complaining about little tiny pieces of the 536 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 4: video placing the car near the residents, according to police, and. 537 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: She doesn't like that, and she thinks that's not fair. 538 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 4: But what it is is different video cameras picking him 539 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 4: up along the way. 540 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: Did you decide for that? Am I feeding you? Spoon 541 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: feeding you? 542 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 10: Now? 543 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 7: Here's the thing, you know, these ring cams and these 544 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 7: CCTV obviously they're more prevalent today than at any other 545 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 7: point in time in history, and so we don't necessarily 546 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 7: know about where all of these clips are coming from. 547 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 7: We do know the area that he was in, allegedly, 548 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 7: this car moving back and forth is going to be 549 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:50,479 Speaker 7: the most densely populated area in this geographic location. You know, 550 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 7: you get out in these areas that are far flung. 551 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 7: Remember the loop that they talk about that where they 552 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 7: collected they were trying to collect images off of these 553 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 7: gas station cams and wherever where else the car may 554 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 7: have passed, this is going to be the target rich 555 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 7: area though around that residence at that point in time. 556 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 7: Did they shake the bushes enough to collect enough of 557 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 7: this data out there to piece the sin completely together? 558 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 7: Apparently she thinks they may have. 559 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 4: Idaho murder suspect Brian Koberger gets pulled over by law 560 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 4: enforcement two times, not just in one day, but actually 561 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 4: within minutes of each other, on his way for Thanksgiving 562 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 4: break to his parents' home, and ne'ar the Pocono's. 563 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: I just got to say, two times within minutes.

Now, it was argued back and forth, and 583 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 4: I claimed vehemently that this was no coincidence because there 584 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 4: were two pullovers by local l E law enforcement in 585 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 4: one trip home. When does that happen? How often do 586 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 4: you get pulled over? I rarely get pulled over. So 587 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 4: you get pulled over twice and you never even get 588 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:52,840 Speaker 4: a ticket. Oh no, that's stunt to high heaven with 589 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 4: me right now.

What's w 595 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: s U. 596 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:25,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's burdens. 597 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:27,800 Speaker 7: That is SWAT team area. 598 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 3: So we're okay, I have a hard time hearing you 599 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 3: because of the traffic. 600 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 13: So you're coming from Washington State University and you're going where? 601 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 14: Oh you going back to Okay, Yeah, we're a little light. 602 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 4: To Howard Bloom, I'm gonna circle back to the fact that, unasked, 603 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 4: he starts talking about talking about SWAT's team, SWAT Team 604 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 4: swarming the area. Methink, thou dost tests too much in 605 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 4: the immortal words of William Shakespeare. Nobody asked, nobody asked 606 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 4: about the Idaho murders. Yet he's dead. He's just regurgitating, 607 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 4: vomiting the information. 608 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: When nobody asked. 609 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 4: But I want to circle back to the so called 610 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:21,399 Speaker 4: hat box operation that you described so well in your 611 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,240 Speaker 4: book When the Night Comes Falling. 612 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 15: Explain and why did the FBI, who absolutely was following 613 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 15: Coburger as seen his dad across the country, thought that 614 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 15: their entire operation may go up in flames. 615 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 14: Well, as you point out, the FBI decided that Coburger 616 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 14: was a person of interest. They decided this earlier, before 617 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 14: they even told the Moscow Tesk Force. They kept this 618 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 14: to themselves for either one of two reasons. The first 619 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 14: reason was that it was the identification was based on 620 00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 14: the genealogy genetics investigative genetic geneality, and they thought that 621 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:05,280 Speaker 14: wouldn't hold up in court. Or a much more cynical 622 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 14: explanation would be that the FBI didn't want to share 623 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 14: the credit for Coburg's arrest with anyone else. 624 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 3: So they go off and follow him. 625 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 14: And they have cars, they have a plane in the 626 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 14: air that's following his route, and suddenly they see Coburger 627 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 14: being stopped, and they don't know what's going on, and 628 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 14: they don't know what to do. Had they think a 629 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 14: local cop, a local sheriff had seen the be on 630 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,360 Speaker 14: the lookout for notice and swooped in on this Hondai 631 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 14: a Lantra, or they're also wondering how is Coburger going 632 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 14: to react he is a suspect in a quadruple homicide. 633 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 14: Is he going to get on the put his foot 634 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 14: on the accelerator and tear out, or perhaps he's going 635 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 14: to shoot anything as possible of the officer who's coming 636 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 14: in to give him this traffic ticket. 637 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 3: Then nine minutes later. 638 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 4: It's almost laughable, Howard, because the FBI actually has a 639 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 4: bird in the air watching. They see one pullover by 640 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 4: the Hancock Keunty sheriffs, and Coburger goes on his way. 641 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 1: And then there's another pullover. 642 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,720 Speaker 4: Don't you know they're like, what is happening down there? 643 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 4: Why are they pulling over our quadruple murders suspect. I'm 644 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 4: sure they were just and they couldn't say anything. And 645 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 4: they're watching from a bird right. 646 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 14: Yes, they have assess and they're flying overhead. You know, 647 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 14: it's a hawk, waiting to swoop down in case anything happens. 648 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,919 Speaker 14: In effect, and they've been building this case for six 649 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 14: weeks and they're finally getting closer, and they think the 650 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 14: whole case is going to be blown apart before they've 651 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 14: connected all the dots, and they are filled with a 652 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 14: sense of panic. 653 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,280 Speaker 3: But discipline what Howard. 654 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,399 Speaker 4: They were right and this is no offense to Indiana 655 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 4: at all. But I understand where the FBI is coming from, 656 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 4: and you know how much I hate the Feds. 657 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: But that said Chris. 658 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 4: Mcdonnald joining me, Director Cole Case Foundation, former homicide detective 659 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 4: and star of The Interview Room on YouTube. Chris, if 660 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 4: they had stopped Coburger and he nutted up and they 661 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 4: arrested him or sped off, anything could have happened. Because 662 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 4: we can't we can't predict what Coburger is going to do. 663 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 4: Just like his father, he had no idea what his 664 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 4: son might do. We would never have gotten the evidence 665 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 4: that we got. When they finally got home to the 666 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 4: Pocono area, remember they were surveilled. They went in finally 667 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 4: or in the early morning hours, they catch him I 668 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 4: think in his shorts or underwear, wearing plastic gloves and 669 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 4: separating his trash from everybody else's trash, and they see 670 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 4: him go throwing trash in the neighbor's receptacle. None of 671 00:39:54,600 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 4: that would have happened if local authorities had arrested Coburger 672 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 4: or for a traffic violation, or if Kyburger spun out 673 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,240 Speaker 4: and brought about his own arrest. 674 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 1: So I understand why they were worried. 675 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:13,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, and absolutely, and not only that. If you remember, 676 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 3: this officer is leaning in, so if he would have 677 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 3: seen anything in plane view, you know what Doc Morgan 678 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 3: was talking about, you know, any blood transfer or anything 679 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,080 Speaker 3: like that. Well, the clock starts ticking right then and there. 680 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 3: If this officer starts diving into this traffic stop, that 681 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 3: you may have this fugitive task for surveillance team, you know, 682 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 3: overhead and behind him going hey, what the heck is 683 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 3: going on here? So, and quite frankly, I hate to 684 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 3: say it, but I've seen this as well as many others, 685 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 3: numerous at times where you know, this thing could have 686 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 3: gone south really fast. But fortunately they cut him loose 687 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 3: and they were able to connect those stocks. 688 00:40:54,560 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: We wait as justice unfolds. Nancy Grace signing off, good 689 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: bye friend,
