The suspect in the 2022 quadruple murder of University of Idaho students is requesting the trial to be moved out of the local community due to the intense media scrutiny.
The suspect accused of killing four students at the University of Idaho is requesting his trial be moved to Boise, Idaho, for a more fair trial. Bryan Kohberger, the defendant accused of carrying out the highly-publicized 2022 mass murder in Latah County, says the area has become too saturated with media coverage asserting his guilt before the trial. 'The prolific media coverage, in Latah County, is not a mere passing story,' Anne Taylor, a public defender for Kohberger, said on Tuesday.
She added, 'Some of the major employers in the community are people connected to law enforcement and the University of Idaho.' Kohberger faces four charges of first-degree murder and a felony burglary count. If he is convicted, he could face the death penalty. He is due back in court in August for a hearing on his defense team's motion to change venue. Fox News Digital's Michael Ruiz contributed to this report.
