Dr. Bryan Edelman is a trial consultant and expert on pre-trial publicity who was involved in the Bryan Kohberger trial. Edelman was hired by Kohberger's defense team to conduct a phone survey of potential jurors in Latah County, Idaho.

They argued that the questions were too specific and potentially spread false information, thereby contaminating the jury pool. Some questions included details not found in official affidavits, leading to concerns that the survey was prejudicing potential jurors against Kohberger.Edelman defended his work, stating that his aim was to measure the influence of media coverage on public opinion, regardless of whether the information was true or false. He emphasized that such surveys are standard practice in high-profile cases to determine whether a fair trial can be conducted in the current venue or if a change of venue is necessary.The controversy surrounding the survey led the judge to pause its continuation and to schedule further hearings to decide on the matter.In this episode we take a look at his declaration filed with the court.(commercial at 8:05)to contact me:[email protected]:072224-Memorandum-Support-MCoV.pdf

​In March 2025, a New York federal judge dismissed a sexual assault lawsuit against Sean "Diddy" Combs. The plaintiff, identified only as "Jane Doe," alleged that Combs assaulted her at a 1995 party. The court had previously granted her until March 20 to refile the complaint under her real name, but she failed to do so, leading to the case's dismissal.Combs' legal team responded by highlighting this dismissal as indicative of a broader pattern of meritless claims brought by anonymous individuals. They emphasized that this is the second such case dismissed in its entirety and expressed confidence that other similar claims would not withstand legal scrutiny.to contact me:[email protected]:Diddy Gets Rare Legal Win As Judge Tosses Out 1995 Rape Allegations

​In January 2022, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe was found dead in the snow outside a fellow officer's home following a night of socializing. His girlfriend, Karen Read, was subsequently charged with second-degree murder, manslaughter, and leaving the scene of a deadly accident, with prosecutors alleging she struck O'Keefe with her SUV and left him in the freezing conditions. The initial trial concluded in July 2024 with a mistrial due to a deadlocked jury.Since then, the case has seen significant developments, including the termination of lead investigator Trooper Michael Proctor for misconduct related to the investigation. Additionally, a juror from the first trial has joined Read's defense team, highlighting concerns about the investigation's integrity. Despite defense efforts to dismiss charges on double jeopardy grounds, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court has ruled that Read can be retried. Jury selection for the retrial is set to commence on April 1, 2025.to contact me:[email protected]:Karen Read and John O'Keefe: Inside evolution of Boston murder mystery since mistrial | Fox News

​In the trial of Karen Read, the defense raised concerns about the methods used by investigators to collect evidence at the scene where Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe was found deceased. Specifically, they criticized the use of red plastic cups and a leaf blower during evidence collection, arguing that such unconventional techniques compromised the integrity of the evidence and could have led to contamination. Canton Lieutenant Paul Gallagher acknowledged that "nothing about this scene was standard" when discussing these methods. The defense suggested that the use of red Solo cups and grocery bags for collecting blood samples was inadequate and questioned the reliability of the evidence gathered in this manner.Additionally, jurors in the Karen Read murder trial visited the Canton home where O'Keefe's body was discovered. During this visit, they examined a black Lexus SUV, believed to be Read's vehicle, which was parked near the residence. The SUV was noted to be missing a taillight and had visible scratches on the right side. Prosecutors directed the jury's attention to specific areas of the vehicle, including the center console and the front driver's compartment, while the defense emphasized the importance of observing the spatial relationships of various elements at the scene, such as the flagpole, fire hydrant, and the house itself. This site visit aimed to provide jurors with a clearer understanding of the physical context surrounding the incident.to contact me:[email protected]

​In the trial of Karen Read, ATF Special Agent Brian Higgins testified about his interactions with both Read and her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, prior to O'Keefe's death. Higgins recounted that he had known O'Keefe for about a year and considered both him and Read as friends. He detailed a series of flirtatious text messages exchanged with Read in January 2022, initiated by her, which included messages where Read complimented Higgins's appearance and invited him to her house. Higgins also testified that during a visit to O'Keefe's home to watch a Patriots game, Read "planted a kiss" on him, describing it as "lip to lip." These interactions were presented to suggest potential tensions in Read and O'Keefe's relationship.During cross-examination, the defense questioned Higgins about his actions following O'Keefe's death, particularly focusing on his disposal of his personal cellphone. Higgins admitted to discarding his phone at a military base after discovering that his personal number had been exposed online, which he claimed was unrelated to the case. The defense suggested that this action could indicate an attempt to eliminate potentially incriminating evidence. Additionally, Higgins testified about his movements on the night of O'Keefe's death, stating that after leaving a gathering at Brian Albert's home, he went to the Canton Police Department to move vehicles for snow plowing, then returned home. He maintained that he did not see O'Keefe or Read at the gathering and was surprised to learn of O'Keefe's death the following morning.to contact me:[email protected]
