A district court judge has set a June 2025 start date for the criminal trial of Bryan Kohberger, the suspect accused in the murders of four students at the University of Idaho in 2022. Both the defense and prosecuting attorneys agreed to the court's proposed trial schedule during a hearing in Latah County, where the killings happened, on Thursday. Kohberger appeared at the hearing.
Latah County District Judge John Judge said he anticipates the trial will last three months. That would account for two weeks of jury selection, eight weeks of the trial itself, and another two weeks for the verdict, sentencing and anything else remaining, he said.
Kohberger, 29, is charged for allegedly breaking into the off-campus home of former University of Idaho students and roommates Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, and Xana Kernodle, 20, early one morning in November 2022. He is accused of stabbing the three students to death along with Ethan Chapin, 20, who was Kernodle's boyfriend and was with them in the house.

President Biden's lackluster debate performance Thursday night, marked by a raspy voice, gaping facial expressions, rambling answers on key questions and a perceived failure to refute several lies from former President Donald Trump, has fueled concern among many Democrats in Washington and sparked some discussion about whether there's a way to replace him on the Democratic ticket in the 2024 presidential election.
