In this episode, I explore new headlines and evidence in the Idaho College Murders case. What are the facts, and what is fiction?? A search of Bryan Kohberger’s parents’ home yielded an ID card that’s reportedly connected to someone from the quadruple homicide. However, police have not officially confirmed the details due to the gag order in the case. It’s also being reported that there is evidence of cyberstalking by Kohberger toward one of the victims. Furthermore, headlines state that Kohberger is being investigated for similar cases, yet officials quickly stated that there is no evidence that he is connected to other cases.

Todd and Julie Chrisley have appealed their convictions asking the court to remand their case for a New Trial on grounds that the government relied on illegally obtained evidence and testimony in violation of their due process and fourth amendment rights. Will they get a New Trial? What do you think of their arguments?

Alex Murdaugh is asking for more money from a receiver in the Mallory Beach boat crash case to pay for his legal fees to appeal the murder conviction and sentence. The death of Stephen Smith has been linked to the Murdaugh family through rumor and through SLEDs 2021 announcement that they were investigating his death due to information they found during the course of the double homicide investigation into the death of Maggie and Paul. Last week there was a lot of movement in the Stephen Smith case, with SLED making a new announcement about their investigation and ordering a private exhumation. This is another twist in the lengthy Murdaugh saga.

You can’t escape the Gwyneth Paltrow Ski collision trial at the moment. In case you’re unfamiliar with the case, here’s an overview: In February 2016, Gwyneth Paltrow allegedly collided with a skier named Terry Sanderson at the Deer Valley Resort in Park City, Utah. Sanderson sued Paltrow for $3.1 million, claiming that she was skiing recklessly and caused him to suffer a brain injury and other injuries. She countersued for a dollar. They are in trial attempting to determine who is liable (responsible) for the collision.

The Idaho College Murders case is under seal, but a few documents have been unsealed. I am going through what police found in the White Hyundai Elantra, what is still underseal, and the petition for writ where over 20 media companies are trying to have the Idaho Supreme Court overturn the courts’ non-dissemination order. We have a long way to go before the preliminary hearing in June!

Randy Murdaugh breaks his silence on the Murdaugh conviction and says, “he’s not telling the truth, in my opinion, about everything there.” After six weeks of trial, the Murdaugh jury found him guilty on all counts in a matter of hours, and he was sentenced to multiple life counts the next day. Several jurors have spoken to the media emphasizing that the kennel video and Alex’s testimony were key to their decision.

Baldwin has moved to have the special prosecutor removed (which I covered on my last rust episode), The DA has dropped the weapons enhancement charge, and Baldwin and Guiterrez- Reed have both plead not guilty. Oh, and rust is still set to resume filming in Montana in spring.
South Park is subject to a massive lawsuit from Warner Media HBO. It seems we’re in the streaming wars now.

If things in the Idaho Murder case couldn’t get stranger, here we are. Idaho Professor Scofield sued a Tik Tok creator for defamation over the allegations that she killed the four victims and had an inappropriate relationship with one of them. After the defamation suit was filed, the creator acknowledged the suit and mocked it but didn’t respond. A default is entered, then the creator, representing herself, files an answer and a counterclaim. Yes…suing the Idaho Professor and the lawyers who sued her. It’s so wild.

The Girardi Keese empire crumbled at the end of 2020 and landed in an extensive bankruptcy that has also spawned a plethora of civil cases that are still pending. What we hadn’t seen is anyone being held criminally responsible. Judge Durkin in Illinois wrote a scathing opinion in the contempt proceeding stating that some of Tom Girardi’s and Girardi Keese’s behavior was unquestionably criminal. The US Attorney’s agreed, and Tom Girardi is now facing 18 counts alleging the theft of over 18 million dollars from clients. Will he be competent to stand trial, given that he is in a conservatorship? I am breaking it down in this episode.

A lot of questions have been raised about attorney conflict in relation to Public Defender Anne Taylor, who represented parents of victims in the Idaho case before she took on the representation of Bryan Kohberger. With Dick Hartpootlian representing Paul Murdaugh before representing Alex Murdaugh, who is accused of murdering him, is another level of conflict issues. Have you had questions about this too?

Today I cover the Alec Baldwin charges, jury selection, and the Alex Murdaugh murder pre-trial motions that just keep coming.
On June 7, 2021, Maggy and Paul Murdaugh were murdered at the sprawling 1700-acre South Carolina hunting estate ‘Moselle’. A year later, Alex Murdaugh was indicted and arrested for the murders, the Trial began on January 23, 2023, in Colleton County, South Carolina.
There has been a lot of pre-trial activity ahead of the trial starting. The court recently ordered the jury information sealed and not disclosed, meaning jurors will be referred to by number, and their information will remain private.
The defense is seeking to keep a blood spatter expert from testifying; they filed a motion for sanctions related to that request. The prosecution has stated that they will not mention the expert until the court rules on it, and that subject is tabled for now.

There has been a lot of pre-trial activity ahead of the trial starting. The court recently ordered the jury information sealed and not disclosed, meaning jurors will be referred to by number, and their information will remain private.
The defense and prosecution are arguing over what evidence should be included in the trial. The defense wants to introduce evidence of a polygraph test, but the prosecution argues that it could lead to a mistrial. The prosecution is also attempting to exclude evidence related to a possible “third-party guilt” of another person who may have been involved in the murder.

The November 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students shocked the nation. Since then, an alleged perpetrator has been arrested, and the probable cause affidavit that walks through how law enforcement ties the defendant to the murders has been unsealed. Today I go over the key points from the probable cause affidavit and how the surviving roommate’s description was a huge break for police.
Because the internet is the internet, we are also talking about a shocking defamation lawsuit that stems from TikTok accusations that a professor at the University Of Idaho, Rebecca Schofield, is responsible for the murders. It’s wild stuff.

Alec Baldwin sues the Armor Hannah Guiterrez-Reed, 1st AD David Halls, Prop Master Sarah Zachry, Prop Distributer Seth Kenney, and his company PDQ Arm & Prop. But that’s not all; the suit contains a tremendous amount of detail about the FBI report and interviews given during the Rust investigation. But that is not the only new lawsuit; 1st AD Dave Halls has also filed a counter-lawsuit arguing that he should also be indemnified against any win by script supervisor Mamie Mitchell.

The Britney Spears conservatorship was terminated over a year ago, but it’s not over yet. The fight between Bitney Spears and her father/former conservator has only gotten worse since the termination of teh conservatorship. There are extensive financial issues that haven’t been decided, plus quite a lot of activity in court. The court entertained a motion for sanctions against James Spears because they submitted sealed documents as exhibits in a filing. Today I go through all the latest updates in the Britney Spears conservatorship and what is happening next.

So much is unraveling in the Girardi Fraud cases. First, did Erika Girardi swap the earrings before they were turned over to the auction house? Are the diamonds the same, because the receipts raise a lot of questions. Then there is the appeal over said earrings which raises lots of questions, especially in light of the tax liability that is a massive issue in this case. Finally, there is litigation moving forward in many of the other cases.
