Kohberger trial set to happen in Latah County

It appears there will not be a change of venue for the trial of murder suspect Bryan Kohberger, according to a schedule filed by Latah County District Judge John Judge on Tuesday.

The schedule says a jury trial is set to commence Oct. 2 in the Latah County Courthouse and will run until Nov. 17.

Jury selection will begin Sept. 25 and is anticipated to last at least three days.  

Kohberger faces four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary in the November stabbing deaths of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin. He faces the death penalty if convicted.
