As RadarOnline.com previously reported, if found guilty, Kohberger could face death by firing squad, as a bill introduced by Republican lawmaker Rep. Bruce Skaug may allow this punishment in Idaho.
As the legal preparations for Kohberger’s trial continue, the prosecution is under pressure to compile a strong case within six months since Kohberger has not waived his right to a speedy trial.
In the courtroom, prosecutors have signaled their intention to present DNA evidence, including a knife sheath with DNA matching Kohberger and his father, as well as surveillance footage showing Kohberger’s white Hyundai Elantra near the crime scene. A surviving roommate also identified Kohberger as the killer, citing his distinctive “bushy eyebrows.”
