This week, a 31-year-old man convicted of the murders of four university students in the US announced he was filing a motion to withdraw his guilty plea. In a letter to a court, Bryan Kohberger claimed he was convinced to falsely confess to the 2022 killings.

In today’s podcast, we’ll explain what you need to know about the case, why it made international news and what happens next.

Listen to Byran Kohberger's sister on The New York Times.

Hosts: Zara Seidler and Emma Gillespie
