Camille Vasquez Hired as NBC Legal Analyst, Talks Kohberger on First Day

Johnny Depp‘s star lawyer, Camille Vasquez, has a sweet new TV gig … she’s working for NBC as an on-air legal analyst, and on her first day she’s tackling the biggest criminal case in the country.

Camille appeared Monday on the “Today” show, where she joined Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie to discuss Bryan Kohberger … who’s been charged for the quadruple murder in Idaho. The 2 cohosts asked her to size it all up, and to weigh in on how strong the state’s case is against him, based on what we know so far.

According to CV … Kohberger has a steep hill to climb, because she says investigators and prosecutors aren’t in the habit of revealing all their cards from the get-go. On the contrary, she suggests there might be even more damning evidence beyond what’s been revealed so far in the police affidavit … which includes DNA, cell phone data and eyewitness accounts.

Camille says they probably put just enough in the docs to get probable cause for an arrest, but notes there could be more revealed in court. She also talked about the pros and cons of having the public so engaged in this case … saying tips could certainly be helpful, but too much sleuthing could also be a red herring.

Pretty solid first outing as a media personality for Camille … a job that came after 4 major networks were clamoring for her expertise since she won the defamation case for Depp.

She’s not going fully Hollywood … Camille is still a partner at her firm, Brown Rudnick, so she’s quite busy these days.
