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.

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.

A judge denied the defense's request to exclude DNA evidence linking Bryan Kohberger to the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students. The ruling marks a major win for prosecutors ahead of his trial this summer.
