Unidentified DNA Evidence Challenges Idaho Murder Case Against Bryan Kohberger
Defense attorneys argue new DNA findings from two unknown males could create reasonable doubt in the upcoming trial.
- Bryan Kohberger, accused of killing four University of Idaho students in 2022, faces trial later this year in Boise, Idaho.
- Defense attorneys revealed DNA from two unidentified males was found at the crime scene, one on a handrail inside and another on a glove outside the house.
- Prosecutors maintain Kohberger's DNA was found on a knife sheath under one of the victims, which they argue establishes probable cause for his arrest.
- The defense claims police omitted the unidentified DNA evidence when obtaining Kohberger's arrest warrant, potentially undermining its validity.
- Legal experts suggest the new evidence could introduce reasonable doubt but acknowledge the knife sheath DNA remains a significant challenge for the defense.
