The new judge overseeing next year's trial of the man accused of murdering four University of Idaho students has moved back its tentative start date to August from June. Ada County District Court Judge Steven Hippler's order, dated Tuesday, comes after suspect Bryan Kohberger made his first appearance in a Boise court on Sept. 26. The judge wants the trial to begin Aug. 11 and said it could run through Nov. 7, including a penalty phase if Kohberger is convicted. At the hearing, Hippler set the ground rules for defense lawyers and Latah County prosecutors as they navigate his courtroom in the high-profile case. A potential motive remains unclear, and Kohberger's defense denies he was involved.

Bryan Kohberger, the man accused in the murders of four University of Idaho students, was transported by plane Sunday morning from the Idaho county where he was being jailed to another county where his trial will be held. Latah County District Judge John Judge had ruled in favor of lawyers for Kohberger, 29, who argued a trial in Latah County would be unfair because of the intense pretrial publicity creating a "mob mentality" against the defendant. "While the issue of extensive, sensationalized coverage is not unique to Latah County," Judge added, "it is potentially more impactful given the volume of coverage coupled with the smaller population." Despite the change, Latah County prosecutors and Kohberger's public defenders are expected to remain through the trial. Some of the victims' families have expressed frustration over the trial's delay and had pressed for the case to remain in Latah County so that its residents could represent the jury.

The trial of the man accused of murdering four University of Idaho students will be moved out of the county where the killings took place in late 2022, a judge ruled in a decision released Monday. Latah County District Judge John Judge heard arguments last month about whether the trial of Bryan Kohberger, tentatively set for next June, should be moved to Ada County, about 300 miles south and home to Idaho’s capital, Boise. Judge did not immediately specify the new location in granting a different venue, which he said was based on “presumed prejudice” if the trial remains in Latah County. A new judge is expected to be brought onto the case once it moves, although it’s unclear when the Idaho Supreme Court could decide on the judge and venue. Latah County prosecutors will remain on the case through the trial.

The NewsProsecutors in Idaho said they planned to seek the death penalty against the man accused of murdering four University of Idaho students in a home near campus last fall. At a hearing last month, Mr. Kohberger declined to enter a plea, leading the judge to enter a not-guilty plea on his behalf. Idaho has not executed any prisoner since 2012, and Mr. Thompson noted that he was allowed, by law, to change his mind later and reverse his decision to seek the death penalty. The family members of one victim, Kaylee Goncalves, said in a statement on Monday that they were grateful the prosecutors were pursuing the death penalty. “There is no one more deserving than the defendant in this case,” they said.

May 22 (Reuters) - The graduate student accused of stabbing four University of Idaho college students to death is expected to appear in court on Monday for his arraignment and to enter a plea on first-degree murder charges. Bryan Kohberger, 28, is scheduled to be appear in a Latah County courtroom for an arraignment hearing in front of District Judge John Judge. The crime stunned the small college town of Moscow, Idaho, home to the University of Idaho, and drew national attention, with six weeks elapsing before a suspect was apprehended. Kohberger eventually was arrested in Pennsylvania, where he was visiting his family, and flown to Idaho to face charges. Kohberger was working on a PhD degree in criminal justice at Washington State University, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) from the University of Idaho campus.
These are just some of the items that investigators seized from the apartment of 28-year-old Bryan Kohberger, the former doctoral student charged with killing four University of Idaho college students, according to a search warrant released Wednesday. The warrant was served Dec. 30, the same day Kohberger was arrested at his family home in Pennsylvania. The other hair samples aren't specifically identified as human in the warrant signed by Washington State University Assistant Police Chief Dawn Daniels. The quadruple murder shocked the country and stymied police for seven weeks before Kohberger was arrested. But the four charges of first-degree murder carry sentences that could include life in prison to the death penalty.
The approach used to identify Kohberger is just one of several recent developments in DNA analysis that have transformed the way law enforcement investigates crimes. In a justice system rife with flawed science, DNA evidence is rightly viewed as the gold standard for forensics: After DNA evidence was first introduced in the criminal justice system in the late 1980s, scientists spent years developing and evaluating protocols for comparing individual DNA samples, which have been repeatedly found to produce consistent, reliable results. DNA analysis was a revolution in forensics, but like every form of scientific evidence it has the potential for error. Recent technological advancements allowing scientists to analyze increasingly small or contaminated DNA samples further complicate the process. DNA samples are also sometimes mishandled or tampered with, compromising results.
Bryan Kohberger , the man accused of killing four University of Idaho students, arrived late Wednesday in Idaho where he faces murder charges. Mr. Kohberger was transported to Washington state’s Pullman-Moscow Regional Airport, which borders Idaho, a day after agreeing to be extradited from Pennsylvania. He was taken from the airport to Idaho’s Latah County Jail, where he is being held without bond.
MOSCOW, Idaho — Bryan Christopher Kohberger, who was arrested last week in the killings of four University of Idaho students, was expected to make his first appearance in an Idaho courtroom on Thursday. Kohberger is scheduled to appear before Latah County Magistrate Judge Megan Marshall at 9:30 a.m. PT/12:30 p.m. Earlier this week, Marshall ordered police, attorneys and officials connected to the case not to speak publicly or share any information about Kohberger's prosecution outside courtroom walls. Kohberger arrived in Latah County on Wednesday, following a cross-country trip from northeastern Pennsylvania where the Washington State University graduate student was arrested on Friday. Deon Hampton reported form Moscow, Idaho, and David K. Li from New York City.
Bryan Christopher Kohberger, the man accused of fatally stabbing four University of Idaho students, was removed from a county jail in Pennsylvania and turned over to state police Wednesday, officials said. “He is no longer in the custody of the Monroe County Correctional Facility; he’s in the custody of the Pennsylvania State Police,” warden Garry Haidle said. Less than 24 hours earlier, the 28-year-old Kohberger waived extradition in a Stroudsburg courtroom, paving the way for his trip to Latah County, Idaho. Kohberger was arrested Friday in Albrightsville in northeastern Pennsylvania, about 2,500 miles from Moscow, where the students were killed Nov. 13. The suspect was a doctoral student in the criminal justice and criminology department at Washington State University, 9 miles from Moscow.
STROUDSBURG, Pa. — Bryan Christopher Kohberger, the suspect in the brutal slayings of four University of Idaho students in November, waived extradition Tuesday during a court hearing in Pennsylvania, paving the way for him to face murder charges in Idaho. While in court Tuesday afternoon, Kohberger said he understood what it meant to waive extradition. During the brief hearing, a member of Kohberger's family appeared to be crying. A probable cause affidavit, with details supporting Kohberger’s arrest, is under seal until he sets foot in Idaho and is served with the papers in court, authorities said. Families of the victims say they are hopeful that Kohberger’s arrest will bring justice.

A Hyundai Elantra was taken away from Kohberger's home in Pennsylvania on Friday, law enforcement sources said. The Kohberger family is expected to be present for the extradition hearing Tuesday, LaBar said. Families of the murder victims say they are hopeful that Kohberger's arrest will bring justice.
The killings of four University of Idaho students in mid-November at an off-campus residence stunned the small community of Moscow, Idaho, where investigators grappled with what the town's police chief would later describe as a "very complex" case. Nov. 13At about 1:30 a.m., Goncalves and Mogen are seen ordering from a nearby food truck, according to the truck's livestream. People place flowers at a memorial in front of a campus entrance sign for the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho on Nov. 16. Nov. 18Police say the victims were most likely asleep when they were slain, and some of them had defensive wounds.

A person linked to the slayings of four University of Idaho students has been taken into custody in Pennsylvania, law enforcement sources told NBC News Friday. Bryan Christopher Kohberger, 28, is being held for extradition in a criminal homicide investigation based on an active arrest warrant for first degree murder issued by the Moscow Police Department and Latah County Prosecutor’s Office. The apprehension was made in Monroe County in northeastern Pennsylvania, they said. Ethan Chapin, 20, of Conway, Washington; Madison Mogen, 21, of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho; Xana Kernodle, 20, of Avondale, Arizona; and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, of Rathdrum, Idaho, were killed on Nov. 13.
"Investigators believe the occupant(s) of this vehicle may have critical information to share regarding this case," the release said. Authorities haven’t identified a suspect or found a murder weapon, thought to be a fixed-blade knife. A lawyer for Goncalves, Shanon Gray, faulted Moscow police for not having informed the family before they released the information. The spokesman, Robbie Johnson, said the email was an example of a message aimed at keeping the Goncalves family informed. Goncalves said Mabbutt described Kaylee's injuries in a phone call to the family, answered by her 17-year-old daughter.
Police investigating the grisly killings of four University of Idaho students are walking back a prior statement, now saying it is not known if the residence or its occupants were "specifically targeted." Madison Mogen, 21, Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and her boyfriend, Ethan Chapin, 20, were found fatally stabbed at an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho, on Nov. 13, and the killings remain a mystery. On Wednesday, the Moscow Police Department said this was a “miscommunication.”“Detectives do not currently know if the residence or any occupants were specifically targeted but continue to investigate,” police said. Flowers are left at a makeshift memorial honoring four slain University of Idaho students in Moscow, Idaho. Such unclear answers may have given whoever fatally stabbed the students more time to flee, law enforcement experts say.
MOSCOW, Idaho — Four college students who were fatally stabbed last weekend were likely killed in their sleep and some had defensive wounds, authorities said Friday. Each of the victims was stabbed multiple times, the Moscow Police Department said in a statement, citing autopsies completed by Thursday by the Latah County coroner. There was no sign of sexual assault in the Sunday killings of University of Idaho students Ethan Chapin, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20; and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, the department said. Authorities did not receive a 911 call until 11:58 a.m., when someone reported an “unconscious person” at the home, authorities said. I mean, Just nothing.’”More than two-dozen local patrol officers and detectives are investigating the case with the help of 22 FBI investigators and 35 officers from the Idaho State Police, the Moscow Police Department release said.
MOSCOW, Idaho — With no one apprehended in the brutal slayings of four University of Idaho students in an off-campus home, it "certainly is possible" there may be more than one suspect, a local prosecutor said Thursday. The description of the attack frustrated families of the victims and University of Idaho students who said that without a suspect in police custody, they continued to feel unsafe. In addition, a livestream from a late-night food truck appears to have recorded two of the students ordering food early Sunday. The livestream was broadcast on the platform Twitch by Grub Wandering Kitchen, which owns the food truck. This still from video appears to show two Idaho victims at a food truck before the incident.
MOSCOW, Idaho — The father of one of the four slain University of Idaho students found brutally stabbed in an off-campus home is urging law enforcement and the school to provide more information, saying their silence has only added to the family’s “agony” after three days with an assailant still at large. Still, with no known suspect or motive, students and members of the community are uncertain why police have suggested there is no immediate danger. "For Ethan and his three dear friends slain in Moscow, Idaho, and all of our families, I urge officials to speak the truth, share what they know, find the assailant, and protect the greater community." Candles and flowers are left at a makeshift memorial honoring four slain University of Idaho students in downtown Moscow, Idaho, on Nov. 15, 2022. The University of Idaho canceled classes on Monday and was making additional security and counseling available this week.
University of Idaho students are leaving town after the shocking off-campus killings of four classmates.
