Let's also not gloss over another fact that Bogdanov admitted he was armed and that he kept his gun in the car within reach. Another fact that makes it hard to believe that he would have felt that he was ever in imminent danger.
the prosecution's strategy to disprove the defense's version of events that tried to cast Bogdanov as the victim and prove that Nikki's death was anything but accidental.
As for Bogdanov's explanation for why he fled the country just hours after strangling Nikki to death?
The prosecution gave their closing arguments after two weeks at trial.
Bogdanov was sentenced to 20 years in prison, which in Collins' estimation was not nearly enough.
The Nikki Kuhn Hasn't Act, or Nikki's Law, went into effect in Washington state just a month before Bogdanov's murder trial began. The law closed the loophole that might have allowed Bogdanov to plead he had a diminished capacity to control himself when he learned of Nikki's identity.
As of 2024, 21 states have enacted legislation like Nikki's Law that bans the LGBTQIA plus panic defense. A bill to ban the defense has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Nikki Kuhnhausen, a 17-year-old, was murdered. In some ways, that is where the case ends in all its horror right there. But of course, it makes it that much worse that it appears clear that Nikki was killed because of her identity.
I think it's obvious that Nikki didn't have an easy life as a young child, and additionally that her gender identity would also likely have presented some unique challenges of its own, especially for someone as young as Nikki.
Whether a person supports, doesn't know how to feel, or even if they disapprove about a person's lived gender identity, I hope that we all agree that violence is always wrong. Nikki lost her life at 17. By all accounts, she was strong and proud. She should have had many, many more years to be exactly whoever she wanted to be. Tune in next week for another new episode of Anatomy of Murder.
Anatomy of Murder is an AudioChuck original. Produced and created by Weinberger Media and Fresetti Media. Ashley Flowers is executive producer. This episode was written and produced by Morgan Beattie. Researched by Kate Cooper. Edited by Ali Sirwa and Philjean Grande. So, what do you think, Chuck? Do you approve?
I'm Anastasia Nicolazzi, former New York City homicide prosecutor and host of Investigation Discovery's True Conviction.
Some crimes raise more questions than answers. leaving families, friends, and entire communities trapped in the limbo of uncertainty.
Investigators work to uncover that truth, and in a case like this, to hopefully transform lingering questions into definitive answers. It's a role that requires determination and persistence, qualities that Detective Ryan Peete embodies.
And Ryan actually has some crossover with our very own Scott Weinberger, but not in the way you might be thinking.
Years later, when he began working in investigations, there was one case he was already familiar with. That's because it had been an open case unsolved for over 40 years.
What happened to Kathy wasn't just another file in the drawer or on a shelf. It was the story that every officer knew, a reminder of justice still delayed but not forgotten.
As Ryan sifted through the fading pages, he began to piece together the details of Kathy's life.
Her sister worked at a grocery store at the center. The pair often relied on each other for rides back and forth between work and their apartment about a mile apart. On the night of March 29, 1979, it was Kathy's turn to pick her sister up from work. She said goodbye to her roommate about 9 p.m. and headed out the door on her way to her car.
The family called around to Kathy's friends and boyfriend to see if anyone knew where she was. But nobody did. Next, they tried to piece together her evening.
