Kohberger Trial Moved to Boise Amid Bias Concerns

Bryan Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students in 2022, is fighting against the possibility of a death penalty sentence. His defense team has filed multiple briefs challenging the appropriateness of capital punishment in Idaho, arguing it is inconsistent with evolving societal standards. To bolster their case, the defense has enlisted Dr. Barbara C. Wolf, a renowned forensic pathologist who previously worked on OJ Simpson's defense. Wolf is set to testify remotely at an upcoming November hearing despite the prosecution's objections. The trial, initially set in Moscow, Idaho, was relocated to Boise due to concerns over juror bias and is scheduled for the summer of 2025. The case continues to draw significant attention given the high-profile nature of the crime and the legal arguments being presented.
