River Donaghey grew up in a cult. Or at least that’s what some people called it. His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid. In the 1970s and 80s, a self-help company called Lifespring took America by storm.

In an episode that seems more like a comedy of errors than a serious legal strategy discussion, Tony Brueski's "Hidden Killers" dives into the controversial and arguably reckless approach taken by Ann Taylor, the defense attorney for Bryan Kohberger. Amid the backdrop of a high-profile case, Taylor's decision to send out a questionnaire to potential jurors, asking pointed questions about Kohberger's guilt, comes under scrutiny. The move, intended to prove the jury pool's bias, ironically might have further tainted it, raising questions about Taylor's motive and methodology. Guest Eric Faddis, a former prosecutor and defense attorney, shares his bafflement over Taylor's unorthodox tactic, which not only deviates from standard legal practice but also risks the very defense it aims to fortify. The conversation explores the potential backlash from the judiciary and the delicate balance between strategic lawyering and ethical boundaries, all while painting a picture of a defense seemingly at odds with its objective to defend.
Main Points:
Main Points:
- Ann Taylor's unconventional strategy involved questioning potential jurors about specific, incriminating details related to Bryan Kohberger before the jury selection process, potentially biasing them.
- The approach is critiqued for possibly tainting the jury pool Taylor aims to prove is already biased.
- The defense's motives are questioned, with speculation that Taylor is attempting to justify a venue change by demonstrating bias in the current pool.
- Legal ramifications for Taylor's actions are discussed, including the possibility of sanctions or admonishment from the court for overstepping ethical boundaries.
- The podcast touches on the broader implications of such tactics on the legal system's integrity and the challenges of navigating high-profile defense cases within ethical confines.
