Bryan Kohberger and his legal team were granted the right to continue with their survey in Idaho in hopes of securing a change of venue for the trial.   However, there are many pitfalls that come with this strategy.    

In this episode we dive into the gamble by Kohberger and breakdown what it might mean for his overall strategy moving forward.  



A survey used by lawyers to request a change of venue could backfire in several ways:
  1. Bias in Survey Sampling: If the survey is conducted among a biased or non-representative sample of the population, it could be challenged by the opposing party as being unfair or manipulated.
  2. Public Perception: If the survey becomes public knowledge, it could sway public opinion against the lawyers' desired venue change. For example, if the survey is perceived as biased or manipulative, it could lead to negative publicity for the legal team.
  3. Opposing Counsel's Strategy: The opposing counsel could use the survey results to their advantage by arguing against the change of venue. They might question the validity of the survey methodology or present counter-evidence to refute its findings.
  4. Court's Scrutiny: The judge overseeing the case may scrutinize the survey methodology and findings, especially if there are doubts about its fairness or accuracy. If the survey is deemed unreliable or biased, it could weaken the lawyers' argument for a change of venue.
  5. Prejudicing the Court: If the survey results are presented in a way that seems manipulative or designed to prejudice the court, it could backfire by undermining the lawyers' credibility and damaging their case.
  6. Legal Precedent: If the use of surveys for change of venue requests becomes a contentious issue in the case, it could set a precedent that affects future legal proceedings, potentially limiting the use of surveys in similar circumstances.
  7. Unintended Consequences: Sometimes, survey results can have unintended consequences or reveal information that was not anticipated. This could lead to unforeseen challenges or complications in the legal strategy.
