BOISE, Idaho — The already widespread gag order in the quadruple homicide case against Bryan Kohberger has been updated to prohibit more people from talking about the case.
Latah County Magistrate Judge Megan Marshall amended the nondissemination order, commonly known as a gag order, Thursday to now include attorneys who are representing a witness, victim or victim’s family. The order previously included prosecutors, defense attorneys, investigators and law enforcement personnel.
The initial order was issued on Jan. 3, just before Kohberger was transferred back to Idaho to face four counts of first-degree murder for the deaths of four University of Idaho students: seniors Madison Mogen, 21, of Coeur d’Alene, and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, of Rathdrum; junior Xana Kernodle, 20, of Post Falls; and freshman Ethan Chapin, 20, of Mount Vernon, Washington.
