Judge in Idaho Student Killings Case Demands Records Held Following Leak
- Bryan Kohberger, a 30-year-old former criminology graduate student, faces four first-degree murder charges for killing University of Idaho students in Moscow in November 2022.
- Investigators arrested Kohberger at his parents' home in Pennsylvania on December 30 after connecting DNA from a knife sheath at the crime scene to his family using investigative genetic genealogy.
- Pretrial hearings have addressed whether certain evidence can be presented, including Kohberger's autism spectrum disorder claim, forensic DNA results, records of items he bought online, and eyewitness descriptions of his physical features.
- An expert witness will testify about Amazon data revealing Kohberger bought a knife, sheath, and sharpener matching the crime scene item, and Judge Hippler denied allowing the autism diagnosis to be presented unless Kohberger testifies.
- If found guilty, Kohberger may be sentenced to death following a penalty phase where the jury will determine whether he receives capital punishment or life imprisonment; meanwhile, the case remains subject to a gag order and has drawn widespread public interest.
