Bryan Kohberger's defense team has filed a motion to change the venue for his upcoming trial from Latah County, Idaho, citing concerns that an unbiased jury cannot be found locally due to extensive pretrial publicity. Kohberger is accused of murdering four University of Idaho students in November 2022, a case that has garnered significant media attention both nationally and internationally
Kohberger's attorneys argue that the small size and interconnectedness of the Latah County community, combined with the pervasive and often inflammatory media coverage, make it impossible to select an impartial jury. They propose moving the trial to Ada County, approximately 300 miles away, which has a larger population and may offer a better chance of finding unbiased jurors.
The prosecution, however, contends that the high-profile nature of the case would make it difficult to find an impartial jury anywhere, suggesting that moving the trial might not address the issue of pretrial publicity. They argue that efforts should be made to seat a jury in Latah County, as the local community deserves the attempt to seek closure.
A hearing on the motion for a venue change is scheduled for August 29, 2024, where both sides will present their arguments. The trial itself is currently set for June 2025.
