Murder In Moscow: Greg Rauch Appointed to Represent Bryan Kohberger By The State Of Idaho (8/4/26)

Bryan Kohberger was appointed a new attorney to represent him as he attempts to withdraw the guilty plea that resulted in four consecutive life sentences for the murders of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin. Moscow-based attorney Greg Rauch was selected through the Idaho State Public Defender’s Alternate Counsel Division because Kohberger’s claims involve allegations against his original publicly funded defense team, creating a potential conflict of interest. Rauch said he had not yet reviewed the enormous case file or spoken extensively with Kohberger but planned to examine the police reports, court records and allegations contained in Kohberger’s handwritten petition for post-conviction relief.

Kohberger claimed that his former attorneys pressured him into falsely confessing, misrepresented what he would experience on death row and failed to fully explain potentially favorable evidence, including hair reportedly recovered from Ethan Chapin’s hand. Those allegations sharply contradicted Kohberger’s sworn statements during his 2025 plea hearing, when he acknowledged killing the four students and repeatedly told Judge Steven Hippler that his pleas were voluntary. His waiver of a direct appeal did not prevent him from filing for post-conviction relief, but overturning the plea would require him to prove serious constitutional failures by his former lawyers. Should he succeed, the murder case could return to court for a trial, and prosecutors could once again seek the death penalty.
