When Brian Cobeger walked into the courtroom 10 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 3: on the afternoon of Tuesday, June twenty seventh, he looked different. 11 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 3: He carried himself differently. Flanked by his defense team Anne Taylor, 12 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 3: Jay Logstin and Alyssa Masseth, Coburger entered the courtroom wearing 13 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 3: a dark suit and tie with a white dress shirt. 14 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 3: His face was clean shaven, his hair styled with jel. 15 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,279 Speaker 3: Gone was the bright orange prison jumpsuit that the twenty 16 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 3: eight year old quadruple murder suspect had worn for most 17 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 3: of his previous court appearances. In another world, the former 18 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 3: PhD criminology student looked like he could be testifying as 19 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 3: an expert witness for another case rather than appearing as 20 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 3: a murder suspect. But on June twenty seventh, Coburger, who 21 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 3: was accused of brutally murdering Kaylee Gonsalvez, Madison Mogan, Xana Kernodle, 22 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: and Nathan Chapin, was simply in the Alida County courtroom 23 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 3: to listen to his lawyers begin to lay out their 24 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 3: defense and fight to keep him from being executed. 25 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 4: All right, this is State of Idah O versus Brian 26 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 4: Koberger on mister Coberger is JIMI Corp. 27 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 3: In the days leading up to this much anticipated hearing, 28 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 3: there was speculation that Coberger's defense team would ask the 29 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 3: judge to force the prosecution to provide information and documents 30 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 3: on a wide range of topics. However, before the defense 31 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 3: and prosecution made their presentations to Judge John Judge, he 32 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 3: first addressed the issue of cameras in the courtroom. A 33 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 3: month earlier, Coberger's defense team had asked the judge to 34 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 3: remove press cameras. They worried the continued focus on Coburger 35 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 3: my prejudice potential jurors against Coburger at his trial, especially 36 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 3: as analysts legal commentators and social media influencers pick apart 37 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 3: Coberger's body language and every blink of his eye. Yet, 38 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 3: a month after the defense made the request, the judge 39 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 3: had not made a decision, instead opting to warn at 40 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: the start of the hearing about how the media should 41 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 3: conduct themselves and cover the courtroom. 42 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 5: I have deferred my decision about cameras. One of the 43 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 5: things that's going to be really important, that is very 44 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 5: important is that the people with the camera and media 45 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 5: need to follow the rules. 46 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 6: And we've had some issues where people were pushing the envelope, 47 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 6: particularly focusing on the tables where council sits. I would 48 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 6: prefer if you want to continue to have cameras in. 49 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 7: This courtroom, is to back off make sure that we 50 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 7: just have the totality of what is happening in the 51 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 7: court and not just focus, for example, on this co 52 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 7: River's face. 53 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 3: With the media warned, the hearing turned the defense's motions. 54 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 3: In the days leading up to this much anticipate hearing, 55 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 3: there was speculation that Coberger's defense team would ask the 56 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: judge to force the prosecution to provide information and documents 57 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 3: on a wide range of topics from the investigation into 58 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 3: the suspected white vehicle, to the grand jury proceedings, to 59 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 3: cell phone data, to the FBI's DNA records. For weeks, 60 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 3: Coberger's defense team had been sending signals that they were 61 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 3: unhappy with the slow pace that the prosecution had been 62 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: turning over key documents. Here's defense attorney and Taylor, and 63 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 3: during the course of. 64 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 8: The last several months, there has been a lot of 65 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 8: discovery that's been requested in a lot of business supply. 66 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 8: I come here asking the court to compel discovery. I'm 67 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 8: seeing and order directing that we received his discovery by not. 68 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 3: Seeing any other kind of spanking. 69 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 8: I don't saying that the prosecutor has done something wrong. 70 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 8: I've come here saying that there are things that we 71 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 8: have the disagreement about whether I should get them or 72 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 8: when I should get them, and we see it. 73 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: Co or to in this regard. 74 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 3: Once the hearings started, defense Attorney An Taylor limited the 75 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 3: scope of a request to two single topics. First, she 76 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 3: requested the prosecution turn over the investigative and training records 77 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: for three specific Idaho police officers. 78 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 8: Are one of the Courtant Council to be aware, it's 79 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 8: not a psiane's division either real items that are really 80 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 8: necessary to investigate this pace into paranis or coworker's events. 81 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 3: Taylor argued the defense needed more information about the criminal 82 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 3: investigation that led to Coberger's arrest in December of twenty 83 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: twenty two, and these three officers since they were at 84 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 3: the center of that investigation.

I would 91 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 8: not want to stand here and what the court think 92 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 8: that this is an exhaustive list of the officers that 93 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 8: we might need. 94 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 3: Training records for that. 95 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 8: These are three officers that we've requested or in the 96 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 8: stake has indicated they're not willing to get us as 97 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 8: training records.

Here's Jeff and Stephanie. 177 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: Since we haven't had a substantial update on this case 178 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: in a while, there was a lot of hype for 179 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: this hearing, and while it was substantial, it didn't quite 180 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: have the same omph we thought it might. 181 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 12: To your point, it was extremely short, just thirty minutes. 182 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 12: For note, pre trial hearings can last anywhere from two 183 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 12: minutes to two hours, depending upon the complexity of the case. 184 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 12: But since there was seemingly a lot to cover, this 185 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 12: went much shorter than expected. 186 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 1: Well, that could be because a lot of what we 187 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 1: thought might get brought up didn't remember. Three days after 188 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: the announcement of the indictment back in May, the defense 189 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: asked for thirty four specific pieces of information from the 190 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: grand jury proceedings, all the transcripts, recordings, and evidence, even 191 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 1: the jurors names. Originally, the defense request for grand jury 192 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: information was supposed to be part of the hearing on 193 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: the twenty seventh, but then it wasn't, though it does 194 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: appear that the lawyers are talking behind the scenes to 195 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: try to come up with an agreement on this issue. 196 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 12: The other big issue that we thought was going to 197 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 12: be part of the hearing, and this is a big one, 198 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 12: was the defense's request for the documents related to the 199 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 12: DNA and the FBI's effort to build out this family tree. 200 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 12: Like we discussed earlier, that family tree is what led 201 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 12: investigators to Coburger. The state ended up asking for more 202 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 12: time to respond in the judge granted it. 203 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: But the issue of the DNA, how it was collected, 204 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: how it was handled, and how it was used, seems 205 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: to be a growing issue and it is not going 206 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: away anytime soon. 207 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 9: So I believe there has to be a pre trial 208 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 9: hearing in terms of determining whether or not this is 209 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 9: good or whether it is outside the ability to say yes, 210 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 9: the procedure they used was proper and the eventual swab 211 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 9: that they used for traditional DNAs admissible. That's going to 212 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 9: be a serious because this is a DNA case. 213 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 3: Since the first time DNA was used in nineteen eighty 214 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 3: seven to convict a suspect in the United States, DNA 215 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 3: has played a major role in criminal investigations and in 216 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 3: securing convictions. While the statistical connection between the DNA taken 217 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: from the knife sheath found of the crime scene and 218 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 3: the DNA taken from Brian Coberger's cheek seems very straightforward 219 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 3: and in line with how DNA is usually used in 220 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 3: criminal investigations, attorney and former prosecutor Stephen Greenberg says there 221 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 3: could be a small chance this DNA evidence is not 222 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 3: even admissible at Coberger's trial because of the unique role 223 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 3: the FBI played in narrowing the search down to Brian Coburger. 224 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 3: Here's Stephen Greenberg. 225 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 9: It has to be a pre trial here in terms 226 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 9: of whether or not the DNA evidence will be admissible 227 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 9: at all because of the way they got there. There's 228 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 9: a number of issues that come into play, because if 229 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 9: you remember, they tried a whole number of things before 230 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 9: they outsourceed to the Bureau, and let's remember this you 231 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 9: know the f and FBI is federal. This is not 232 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 9: a federal case. There's no US attorney involved. This is 233 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 9: a state prosecution in a small town in Idaho. And 234 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 9: I'm not so sure how sophisticated the police and prosecutors are. 235 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 9: There's a chain of custody issue, because you know, they 236 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 9: sent this thing out and who knows where it went, 237 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 9: who knows who who was using it. 238 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 3: Let's stop here for a break. We'll be back in 239 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 3: a moment. After local investigators found the knife sheath cover 240 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 3: under Madison Mogan's comforter, they checked it for DNA and 241 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 3: found a very small amount on the button of the 242 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 3: knife sheath. Investigators then ran the DNA through a national 243 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 3: criminal database, but the DNA from the knife sheath did 244 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 3: not produce any matches. Instead of giving up, the DNA 245 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 3: information was then sent to the FB, who passed it 246 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 3: on to a private laboratory named Authrum, which then began 247 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 3: to look for relatives of the DNA sequence in publicly 248 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 3: available genealogy databases. Ultimately, genetic genealogists combed through hundreds of 249 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 3: names connected to the DNA and narrow down the likely 250 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 3: DNA profile to Brian Koberger. Greenberg says because this type 251 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 3: of genetic genealogy method is so new and untested in 252 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 3: the courts, the defense will likely challenge its admissibility in 253 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 3: a pre trial hearing and will put both FBI and 254 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 3: AUTHORAM officials under oath. 255 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 9: There will have to be evidentiary hearings, see, because it's 256 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 9: all going to go to the issue of whether the 257 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 9: court's going to let in this evidence. The judge will 258 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 9: have to have pre trial hearings, and these people will 259 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 9: be on the stand because it goes to the heart 260 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 9: of the case in terms of the issues that we've 261 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 9: been talking about. So now they'll take the stand pre trial, 262 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 9: and they'll take the stand during the trial. 263 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 3: And even if the judge allows the DNA to use 264 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 3: in the trial, Coberger's defense is likely to challenge it 265 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 3: at every turn. 266 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 9: There were a universe of other people who came up 267 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 9: when they did the non traditional okay, the genetic and 268 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 9: why can't we have those names? Did they follow up 269 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 9: on anybody other than this one defendant? So yeah, the issues, 270 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 9: even if the judge allows it in that will be 271 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 9: cross examination material for the defense. So if the main 272 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 9: issue and the only issue by which a jury can 273 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 9: find this guy guilty beyond a reasonable doubt is DNA. However, 274 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 9: all I need is write one juror for a mistrial, 275 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 9: And if the judge does let it in, it's still 276 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 9: going to be as serious. They're going to open on it, 277 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 9: they're going to cross examine on it, and they're going 278 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 9: to close on it. 279 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: Because that's the case. 280 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 3: The Coburger defense team cannot challenge the DNA in a 281 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 3: pre trial hearing until it receives all of the FBI 282 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 3: and off from paperwork from the prosecution, And so far, 283 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 3: the prosecution has refused to turn over the FBI documents, 284 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 3: claiming they don't have the information, hinting that the FBI 285 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 3: hadn't or wouldn't turn over the information. Instead, the prosecution 286 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 3: has asked the judge to allow for more time to 287 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 3: respond to the defense's request. Greenberg says the delay in 288 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 3: turning over DNA information is unusual and unlike the FBI, 289 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 3: which has a long history of being on the cutting 290 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 3: edge of using science to solve crimes. 291 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 9: Makes no sense to me. Well, let's remember this. The 292 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 9: responsibility is to prosecutors. The FBI here was acting as 293 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:33,239 Speaker 9: an independent contractor, right they were investigating the case as 294 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 9: they would if it were a federal case. They were 295 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 9: just asked to do this one particular task, So whoever 296 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 9: they reported to was somebody in the prosecutor's office. It's 297 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 9: a prosecutor's responsibility to see to it that they get 298 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 9: all the information they need. Would the FBI with actually 299 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 9: withhold information from the people who hired them to do 300 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 9: the lab work that being the prosecutor makes no sense 301 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 9: to me, no sense at all. 302 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 3: And if for some reason the FBI is reluctant and 303 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 3: doesn't want to turn over the genetic genealogy information, Greenberg says, 304 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 3: the bureau won't have a choice if the judge orders 305 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 3: the information to be turned over to the defense. 306 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 9: Everybody who was within the jurisdiction of that court, which 307 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 9: obviously the FBI in this case is because they put 308 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 9: themselves into the case. The law of the case is 309 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 9: what the judge says, it is okay, he says, turn 310 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 9: it over. They turn it over. 311 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 3: But with the start of the trial nearing, the clock 312 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 3: is ticking, and every day which the defense is without 313 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 3: this key DNA information makes the October second start date 314 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 3: for the trial more and more unlikely. 315 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 1: Coburger's lawyers asked, and the judge said yes. 316 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 3: One week after the June twenty seventh pre trial hearing, 317 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 3: Brian Coberger's defense team scored a small but potentially important victory. 318 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 3: Judge John Judge ruled that the prosecution must give the 319 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 3: Coburger's defense team access to the training records of the 320 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 3: three Idaho police investigators the defense team deemed are at 321 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 3: the center of the investigation. The judge said of July 322 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 3: fourteenth deadline, writing that the defense adequately articulated the role 323 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 3: each of the officers played in interviewing witnesses and finding 324 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 3: and collecting potential evidence. However, the issue of the FBI 325 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,719 Speaker 3: DNA documentation was still left unresolved. 326 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 9: It's an important victory, and the reason is what they're 327 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 9: going to try to prove it is that either these 328 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 9: police officers who were first on the scene were inexperienced 329 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 9: or that these police on the scene at first didn't 330 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 9: follow whatever training information they were given. But the long 331 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 9: insured of it is there's going to be a serious 332 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 9: issue about how the crime scene was handled and how 333 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 9: well trained these particular officers were. And obviously the judge 334 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 9: felt this was important or he wouldn't have ordered the 335 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 9: turnover of this material. 336 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 3: Defense turney Zan Taylor argued a week earlier at the 337 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 3: pre trial hearing that the defense needed to better understand 338 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 3: the methods the investigators use to exclude other suspects and 339 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 3: to zero in on Coburger. Stephanie and Jeff, followed by 340 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 3: Stephen Greenberg. 341 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 12: Does this mean that the defense is going to go 342 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 12: after the detectives? Are they just trying to question the 343 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 12: motives of the detectives. It seems like such a stretch. 344 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 12: It reminds me of the OJ Simpson trial, for example, 345 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 12: when they went after LAPD detective Mark Furman back in 346 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,959 Speaker 12: the day. Again, is this strategy or a stretch? 347 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: The defense's job is to explore every possible angle, and 348 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: we don't know exactly what their strategy is yet, but 349 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: this request certainly points in that direction. 350 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 12: All that to be said, it must be so difficult 351 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 12: for the family members to be listening to all of 352 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 12: the back and forth, and we just want to be 353 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 12: clear that our hearts go. 354 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 3: Out to all of them. 355 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,719 Speaker 9: So it's a defense going to go after the police, 356 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 9: But they're not going to go after the police per se. 357 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 9: But they're going to go after the individual officers who 358 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 9: are responsible for being the first on this crime scene 359 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 9: and handling evidence. 360 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 3: In a previous court filing, the defense tried to undermine 361 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 3: and poke holes in the state's case against Coppager by 362 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,479 Speaker 3: accusing the prosecution of not being transparent and hiding their 363 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 3: entire case. They have also in pre trial motions raised 364 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 3: issues about how investigators use the DNA sample to zero 365 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 3: in on Copager. Attorney Stephen Greenberg says this is likely 366 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 3: part of a defense strategy to attack not the final 367 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 3: conclusions of the DNA results, but the initial process of 368 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 3: collecting and analyzing the DNA from the crime scene. 369 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 9: I do believe that if the judge let's in the 370 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 9: DNA evidence, things like this in terms of casting doubt 371 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 9: on how the entire investigatory process was handled, goes into 372 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 9: this whole issue. Is the DNA any good or is 373 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 9: it not any good? Did they purposely focus on this guy? 374 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 9: Are there are other reputative defendants out there? So that 375 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 9: is why the judge, I believe, turned it over. And 376 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 9: I think it's an important victory for the public defender's office. 377 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,959 Speaker 9: Is it a good idea to go after the police? 378 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 9: And I would say if you're an inexperienced lawyer, Yeah, 379 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 9: you might do that. An experienced lawyer will not go 380 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 9: after the police per se as a particular group of 381 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 9: individuals who were responsible for taking care of our safety, 382 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 9: but rather the particular officers who were involved. 383 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 3: Let's stop here for another break. One week after the hearing, 384 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 3: as Americans across the country were celebrating the Fourth of July, 385 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 3: and eerie video was uploaded to the Internet. The leaked 386 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 3: surveillance footage from a nearby apartment complex at one three 387 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 3: three zero Linda Lane appears to capture the moments before, during, 388 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 3: and after the Grizzly murders. The security camera is from 389 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 3: a parking lot just a few hundred yards away from 390 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 3: the three story house on King Road, and it is 391 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 3: just one of several camera views investigators have access to. 392 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 3: This video cannot be independently verified, and due to the 393 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 3: gag order, a verification is unlikely. Though it is timestamped Sunday, 394 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 3: November thirteenth, twenty twenty two and begins at three point 395 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 3: fifty nine in the morning. Since being posted, this video 396 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 3: has been removed countless times. Much of what appears in 397 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 3: the footage lines up with official statements from the probable 398 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 3: cause affidavit. In fact, the leaked video seems to validate 399 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 3: key parts of the PCA. On an otherwise dark and 400 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 3: quiet night, the first sign of movement in the video 401 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: comes at roughly four h five am. A light, possibly white, 402 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: sedan pulls up on the street in front of the camera. 403 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 3: Its headlights light up the screen. The vehicle stops for 404 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 3: a few seconds at least five, before turning around and 405 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 3: driving away. According to the probable Cause Affidavid suspect, Vehicle one, 406 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 3: as Coburger's car is described by the document, was seen 407 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 3: on other cameras in the area as early as three 408 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 3: twenty nine a m. The PCA says Vehicle one makes 409 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 3: three initial passes by the eleven twenty two King Road residents. Then, 410 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 3: during a fourth pass at four oh four am, Vehicle 411 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 3: number one is seen unsuccessfully trying to park in front 412 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 3: of a nearby apartment complex before turning around. This appears 413 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 3: to be the sequence caught on the leaked video. About 414 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 3: ninety seconds later, at four oh seven a m, there 415 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 3: is a sound of a short car horn and the 416 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 3: camera at thirteen thirty Linda Lane again captures a vehicle 417 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 3: driving by. This time, the vehicle does not stop and 418 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 3: instead continues driving back towards King Road, though it isn't 419 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 3: clear if this is vehicle number one and Brian Coburger. 420 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 3: The PCA does not mention a fifth loop around the neighborhood. 421 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 3: At four thirteen am, the camera appears to pick up 422 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 3: the sound of a car that could possibly be Xana 423 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 3: Kernodle's food driver departing after dropping off her door dash 424 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 3: order at four to twelve am. Over the course of 425 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 3: the next few minutes, the camera picks up multiple sounds, 426 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 3: though none are clear. There are odd sounds and thuds. 427 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 3: At four twenty one am, there is a loud sound 428 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 3: that appears to be a car quickly moving. According to 429 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 3: the probable cause affidavids, this sound happens at the exact time. 430 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 3: At another camera angle shows suspect Vehicle one leaving the 431 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 3: neighborhood at a very high rate of speed, but this 432 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 3: isn't the final sound. Roughly two minutes later, at four 433 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 3: twenty three, at the exact time investigators say the crime 434 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 3: was ending, someone gets into a large, dark vehicle, likely 435 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 3: in SGV, outside of the Linda Lande security camera. First 436 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 3: you hear the door slamming, then the engine starting. The 437 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 3: car leaves quickly, but by no means is it speeding 438 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 3: away or driving recklessly out of the parking lot. So 439 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 3: who was this person? Did they live in one of 440 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 3: the nearby apartments? Where were they going and where had 441 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 3: they been? There is no mention of anyone else in 442 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 3: the probable cause affidavit. Were they just an innocent bystander 443 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 3: completely unaware of the horrific murders that had just happened 444 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 3: a few yards away? And did police identify this individual 445 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 3: and the vehicle? Did police talk to and clear this person? 446 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 3: Or was this individual somehow connected to the brutal murders 447 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 3: of four young students with a lifetime of opportunity ahead 448 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 3: of them, Did Brian Coberger have an accessory to murder? 449 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 3: And is there DNA that can prove it? More on 450 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 3: that next time.
