Bryan Kohberger’s lawyers will argue evidence was planted by ‘real perpetrator’ in Idaho murder case, prosecutors say

Attorneys for Bryan Kohberger plan to argue at his trial that the evidence against him could have been planted at the crime scene by the real killer who slaughtered the four University of Idaho students two years ago, prosecutors wrote in a new court filing.

Kohberger, 30, is accused of fatally stabbing Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin at an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho, in November 2022. His trial is slated to start in August. He faces the death penalty if convicted.
