Bryan Kohberger judge could slap contempt charges on leakers: Idaho-based lawyer
Share this @internewscast.com

The trial for Bryan Kohberger, charged with the brutal stabbing of four University of Idaho students, has been delayed by a week, according to a revised scheduling order from Idaho’s Fourth Judicial District Court.

Public jury selection is now scheduled to start on August 4, with opening statements expected on August 18—postponed by a week from the initially planned date of August 11, as stated in the new order released Thursday.

The revision changes the initial start date of August 4 for jury selection, allocating July 28 to August 1 for confidential proceedings between the court and attorneys instead.

“An amended scheduling order filed today in State v. Kohberger sets new expected dates for public jury selection and for the start of the trial,” the order states.

Kohberger faces four counts of first-degree murder in connection with the November 2022 slayings of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin in an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho. 

He has pleaded not guilty. Kohberger could face the death penalty if convicted.

The court did not offer an estimated duration for the trial, only that proceedings would continue “until completed.”
