BOISE, Idaho — The man accused of stabbing four University of Idaho students to death in November has objected to a motion from one of the victims’ families to appeal the gag order in his case.
The objection, filed Thursday, comes less than a week after Shanon Gray, the attorney representing the family of victim Kaylee Goncalves, filed a challenge in state court that said the gag order is too broad and places an undue burden on the families.
In the motion to appeal, Gray said the nondissemination order, commonly known as a gag order, “constitutes an intolerable prior restraint on free speech.”
