Kohberger back in court for scheduling hearing.

Judge has requested to hear arguments for and against cameras being allowed in the courtroom for such a high profile case.

There is discussion for when a hearing on the gag order would take place. June 27 at 1:30 pm is being tossed around. But Shannon Gray, an attorney representing the Goncalves family, is requesting an earlier, separate hearing. The earliest date available is June 9

The hearing to discuss the gag order is scheduled for June 9 at 10:30 am in person. Associated Press would like their concerns addressed “as soon as possible.”

“Irreparable harm goes both ways,” said Judge in response to the AP saying this gag order violates the first amendment. “I would suggest the AP tone it down a bit.”

“There’s a lot of irreparable harm that is affecting the media. This is a very high profile case.” Judge concluded

“My job, my constitutional responsibility is to consider all of the potential irreparable harms or all the injuries.”
“We all have constitutional responsibilities to both the 1st amendment and 6th amendments. When I read the paper, there is no discussion of the 6th amendment.”

Goncalves family hearing is 10:30 am on June 9. The hearing with the AP is also on June 9, scheduled for 1:30pm.

Shannon Gray has just left the courtroom.

The major link to Kohberger, investigators said, was a knife sheath left behind at the crime scene with residual DNA left on it.

Despite this, Kohberger's defense argued he will not be found guilty in this case. However, a grand jury which heard the evidence against Kohberger found there was sufficient evidence to indict him. The indictment overrode the need for a preliminary hearing and sped up the arraignment to May 22.

Following his appearance at the arraignment, the judge entered not guilty pleas on all four counts of first-degree murder and the charge of felony burglary on his behalf. The trial date was set for Oct. 2 this year. The defense asked for a six-week trial, and the prosecutor agreed.

MAY 22, 2023 -- LIVE BLOG FROM HEARING​


Court is adjourned - trial set for October 2

After less than a half an hour, the day's proceedings are already complete - with the next hearing pertaining to the case poised for the beginning of October.
Before court was dismissed, the defense had asked the judge to set aside six weeks for the high-profile trial, with four being the minimum.
It was not yet clear if that request will be granted come October 2, when the trial is slated to commence.
For the next four and half months, he will remain in solitary confinement at Latah County Jail, where he has been kept since December.

Kohberger 'stands silent' when asked to enter pleas - so judge does so for him

Kohberger remained silent after the judge asked him to enter his plea - spurring the jurist to enter pleas of not guilty for the defendant himself.
The exchange came after Kohberger responded affirmatively when asked if he understands the charges - and penalties - against him, which could warrant the death penalty.
The prosecution now has 60 days to pursue that penalty following Kohberger's plea Monday - after which his attorney asked the judge for a trial date in October, to which he agreed.
Court is now officially adjourned.

Judge mispronounces victims' names while reading indictment to room
The judge is currently reading each victims name as he goes over Kohberger's indictment - mispronouncing two of them to the visibly dismay to relatives in attendance.
The judge mispronounced Kaylee Goncalves first name - spurring members of her family to shake their heads.
The jurist also flubbed over that name of slain University of Idaho student Xana Kernodle, who proscutors say fought back against her alleged killer.

Kohberger is silently reading along with his own copy of the indictment.

Kohberger has entered the courtroom - wearing what appears to be a bulletproof vest

Kohberger has just been escorted inside the court.
He is wearing an orange jail jumpsuit and what appears to be a bullet proof vest underneath.
The judge, after reading him his rights and charges, asked the defendant if he understand the allegations leveled against him.
Looking straight ahead, Kohberger responded by saying 'Yes I do' - before taking a quick glance and the gallery and taking his seat.
Court is now in session.

Kohberger’s family not seen as court hits max capacity - and suspect arrives

The defendant’s family is reportedly not among the 50 or so citizens in attendance this morning - though there is also an overflow room where attendees are allowed to watch the proceedings remotely.
Everyone is waiting for court officials to escort in Kohberger - who had just arrived.

People being seated in courtroom - Kohberger not yet in attendance

People are starting to file in the small Latah County Court in Moscow for the day's proceedings - though the defendant has yet to appear.
Proceedings, however are expected to begin momentarily, at 9am local time, with prosecutor Bill Thompson among those already in attendance.
Kohberger, meanwhile is expected to enter momentarily, ahead of entering his inevitable plea.

Statement from Shannon Gray, representing the Goncalves family: "The family would like to thank everyone for continuing to follow this case and keep the memories of Kaylee, Maddie, Xana and Ethan alive. They are what is important not the Defendant.

We are thankful that the Latah County District Attorneys Office finally took the case to a GJ and came back with an indictment. At the same time we are disappointed that the judicial process has not been more efficient in addressing the Gag order.

This is just the beginning of a long journey for all the families and we are thankful for your continued support and coverage.”
