More than two years after a quadruple homicide devastated Moscow, Idaho, a judge unsealed the transcript of a recent hearing in the case against Bryan Kohberger – the man accused of stabbing four students to death in an off-campus home.

A judge’s decision cleared the way for Bryan Kohberger’s trial in the killings of four University of Idaho students to begin in August 2025.

The judge overseeing the high-profile upcoming trial against the man charged with killing four University of Idaho students in 2022 issued a major blow to his defense on Wednesday.

Jay Logsdon, North Idaho’s state public defender and co-counsel for the case’s defense, will be replaced for Kohberger’s capital murder trial, a Thursday court order said. Taking Logsdon’s spot is a Northern California attorney who specializes in DNA and previously testified as a paid consultant for the defense.

Kohberger is charged with murdering four University of Idaho students in their off-campus home in the early morning hours of November 13, 2022.

Idaho quadruple homicide suspect Bryan Kohberger has suffered two major blows to his case ahead of his trial in August.

The defense sought to exclude various pieces of evidence, including what was seized from the defendant’s car, apartment, digital accounts and during his arrest.

A judge this week declined to throw out key evidence against the man charged in the killings of four University of Idaho students near the campus two years ago
