Overview
- Prosecutors aim to use a selfie Bryan Kohberger took hours after the murders to support the description of the suspect provided by a surviving roommate who mentioned 'bushy eyebrows.'
- Court filings reveal Kohberger purchased a Ka-Bar knife, sheath, and sharpener on Amazon months before the murders, with prosecutors arguing its relevance to the crime scene evidence.
- Defense attorneys are challenging the admissibility of the Amazon purchase records and the 'bushy eyebrows' description, claiming they could unfairly prejudice the jury.
- Newly released defense filings highlight the surviving roommates' social media and phone activity before calling 911, raising questions about the timeline of events.
- The trial is scheduled to begin on August 11, 2025, with prosecutors seeking the death penalty and the defense arguing that Kohberger's autism diagnosis should preclude it.
