Two Cases Just Shifted — Brian Walshe’s Plea Flip & WSU Under Kohberger Fallout Fire
Update: 2025-11-21
Description
Two major true-crime cases just took sharp, unexpected turns — one in the courtroom, one in the civil arena.
First, Brian Walshe blindsided the court by pleading guilty to disposing of Ana Walshe’s remains and misleading investigators — but still maintaining he didn’t kill her. It’s a move that redefines the entire murder trial and forces huge strategic shifts for both sides.
Then, across the country, Washington State University is facing legal heat. The Goncalves family has filed a civil claim arguing WSU ignored repeated warnings about Brian Kohberger before the Moscow murders. More than a dozen complaints. A professor calling him a future predator. Students saying they felt trapped and unsafe. The question now is simple: Does the law say the university should have done more?
On today’s episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski sits down with legal analyst Eric Faddis to break down both cases:
• Why did Walshe plead guilty to these charges but not murder?
• Does this strengthen the prosecution’s theory — or hand the defense a new angle?
• What does the jury hear now, and how will it shape perception?
• And in the WSU civil case — what duty does a university owe?
• What evidence matters most?
• Does foreseeability apply when the crime occurred off-campus at another school?
• And is the real goal here discovery — forcing WSU’s internal files out into the light?
Two cases. Two seismic shifts. One conversation that lays out the stakes, the law, and the fallout.
