Judge to Kohberger: "YOU'RE GOING TO TRIAL" | Defense Team's Desperate Moves FAIL in Court
The Bryan Kohberger case took a dramatic turn on June 18, 2025, when Judge Steven Hippler delivered a crushing blow to the defense team's delay tactics. In this deep dive, we analyze the pivotal pretrial hearing that locked in the August 11 trial date for the man accused of murdering four University of Idaho students: Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin.
We break down prosecutor Joshua Hurwit's explosive "scorched earth" accusation against defense attorney Anne Taylor, who desperately sought to postpone the trial citing contaminated jury pools from NBC Dateline's leaked coverage. The leaked episode revealed sealed evidence including 23 connections to the victims' home, internet searches, and Amazon purchase histories that should never have gone public. Most shocking: the emergence of a DoorDash driver who claims she saw Kohberger at the murder scene at 3:59 AM - just minutes before the killings. This witness, struggling with PTSD from witnessing her husband's 2013 murder, could provide the prosecution's smoking gun or become the defense's greatest gift. We examine the sealed alternate perpetrator theory, Judge Hippler's demand for "actual evidence rather than just allegations," and why the defense's inability to propose alternative trial dates sealed their fate. Plus: what the 68 terabytes of digital evidence means for both sides. With jury selection beginning July 30 in Boise and livestreaming approved, this case is barreling toward a conclusion. Will the DoorDash witness's 13-minute window prove Kohberger's guilt or create reasonable doubt? #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #MoscowMurders #TrueCrime #CourtTV #JudgeHippler #DoorDashWitness #UniversityOfIdaho #CriminologyStudent #BreakingNews
