Prosecutors Oppose Moving Bryan Kohberger Trial from Moscow, Idaho

Defense argues for change of venue due to extensive media coverage; prosecutors say justice best served locally.

  • Prosecutors argue that moving the trial would not reduce media exposure and would inconvenience witnesses and families.
  • Defense claims that the pervasive media coverage in Latah County prevents a fair trial.
  • The trial is scheduled for June 2025, with a hearing on the venue change set for August 29.
  • Bryan Kohberger faces charges for the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students.
  • Prosecutors suggest expanding the jury pool locally rather than relocating the trial.
