Overview

• Bryan Kohberger, a Ph.D. student at Washington State University, is accused of killing four University of Idaho students in 2023.
• Kohberger's defense team filed motions to dismiss the indictment, alleging bias among the jurors and improper withholding of evidence by the prosecution.
• Judge John Judge denied the motions, stating that the grand jury had sufficient evidence to find probable cause to believe Kohberger committed the crimes.
• Kohberger's trial had initially been scheduled for October, but he waived his right to speedy proceedings and has focused on challenging the indictment and DNA evidence instead.
• A new trial date has not been set, and Kohberger could face the death penalty if convicted.
