Bryan Kohberger Hearing Summary - Evidence & DNA Suppression  
Podcast: The Emily Show
Rating: Explicit Published On: Sat Jan 25 2025
Description: The Bryan Kohberger case held hearings on January 23rd and 24th, 2025. The first part of the hearing was sealed, and the rest were public. The defense argued motions to suppress evidence, including what was gathered from Kohberger's apartment, Amazon account, Apple accounts, cell phone data, and vehicle. The defense also requested a Franks Hearing to determine if there were misstatements or omissions in the affidavits that led to the search warrants. The court indicated that it was not persuaded that the Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG) DNA evidence would be suppressed and questioned Kohberger's right to privacy in DNA databases that he had not submitted his DNA to. The court also questioned whether DNA on a knife sheath that tracked back to the defendant was enough for a judge or magistrate to find probable cause for search warrant affidavits. The court warned the state that its expert disclosure work was not done and needed to be supplemented. The judge has been thoughtful in their rulings and has taken charge of the trial, toning down the courtroom theatrics.
