Overview
Attorneys for Bryan Kohberger, accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, have filed a motion to delay his trial, citing a prejudicial NBC 'Dateline' episode. They argue that the episode, which aired on May 9, contains leaked information and could influence jury selection. The defense claims they need more time to prepare and investigate potential violations of a gag order. Kohberger, who has pleaded not guilty, faces the death penalty if convicted. The judge has yet to rule on the motion for a continuance.
