Idaho prosecutors have requested Bryan Kohberger’s murder trial, charged with killing four college students, to begin next summer, avoiding conflicts with local school schedules.
In a recent court filing, the Latah County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office highlighted parking and safety concerns near Moscow High School and suggested a summer trial for better accommodation availability.
Kohberger, initially set for trial in October, waived his right to a speedy trial, leading to an indefinite delay.
Charged with four counts of first-degree murder, Kohberger denies involvement, and the prosecution seeks the death penalty.
The defense objected to providing an alibi, stating Kohberger often took solitary night drives.
The judge rejected a motion to dismiss the grand jury indictment in October.
The prosecution now seeks a summer trial, proposing a schedule and requesting deadlines for document submissions.
