Bryan Kohberger
Judge Deals Blow To Defense Theory
Published
Bryan Kohberger‘s defense has hit a roadblock as the judge in his criminal case rejected his legal team’s attempt to shift blame to four other suspects.
Kohberger is facing trial this summer for the alleged murder of four University of Idaho students. His defense strategy of implicating another individual as the true culprit has been thwarted by the judge.
According to legal documents obtained by the Daily Mail, the judge dismissed Kohberger’s defense team’s evidence as baseless speculation and irrelevant to the case.
Kohberger faces the death penalty if convicted of the murders of Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin, Kaylee Goncalves, and Madison Mogen.
The judge emphasized the lack of evidence linking the individuals suggested by Kohberger as potential suspects to the crime scene.
The identities of the individuals Kohberger tried to shift blame to remain undisclosed, leaving the public in the dark about their alleged involvement.
