UPDATE: The Idaho Four Killer Wants To Withdraw His Guilty Plea

In November 2022, four college students: Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, were brutally stabbed to death in their off-campus share house in Moscow, Idaho. Seven weeks later, criminology student Bryan Kohberger was arrested and eventually accepted a plea deal, receiving four life sentences without the possibility of parole to avoid the death penalty.

Now, Kohberger is back in the headlines after filing for post-conviction relief. In this update episode of True Crime Conversations, Gemma Bath is rejoined by journalist and author Vicky Ward following the release of the updated edition of The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy.
