ID - 4 University of Idaho Students Died in Apparent Homicide, Moscow, 13 Nov 2022 ****Media Thread**** NO DISCUSSION #2

[arielilane]

MOSCOW, Idaho — The judge overseeing the case of the man accused of killing four University of Idaho students sided with the prosecution in deciding to close a motion hearing on May 14, overriding adamant objections from the defense.
...

The judge ultimately ruled in favor of the prosecution, saying that he just couldn't grapple with these hearings being held open to the public because of the different nuances and that it's just going to be a little bit easier to keep things in closed doors. That way it wouldn't unintentionally create an unfair hearing if something accidentally slips out.

During a recent court appearance, the attorney representing Bryan Kohberger, the man accused of murdering four students at the University of Idaho in November 2022, said that prosecutors were withholding information from the defense team.

As Kohberger's lead attorney Anne Taylor argued that two upcoming hearings, set for May 14 and 16, should be made public, she said that Latah County prosecutors have not provided a full video that allegedly shows Kohberger's vehicle by the residence where the four students were killed. Taylor said that the defense has only "received parts of" the video, which is described in the probable cause affidavit that was used to arrest Kohberger, and said that the video did not have sound.

#BryanKohberger did not get his way.

As I mentioned, Ann Taylor can't pick and choose what is disclosed and what isn't, based on what she perceives may be positive for her client.

Hearing closed, Ann.

Thanks for your fairness, Judge Judge.

The former Moscow Police chief in Idaho who resigned following the arrest of Bryan Kohberger is currently seeking a new job.

Earlier this year, James Fry, the former Moscow Police Chief, announced plans to run for Latah County Sheriff. A review of the Idaho Campaign Finance System website by Newsweek also confirmed Fry's intent to run for the Latah County Sheriff's position.

"There's some things that I'm looking at doing, getting out in the smaller communities and trying to develop some community policing philosophies out there," Fry told Northwest Public Broadcasting in March. "There's things that I'll bring to the table that we did here in Moscow."

This comes as Kohberger's defense team claims that prosecutors are withholding evidence in the case.

His lawyers plan to call experts who can testify to cell phone data that they claim would show the former Washington State PhD grad student was driving around at the time of the 2022 murders.

1/2 Bryan Kohberger hearing ended.Defense questioned why Moscow Police Detective Mowery just came across certain cell phone records yesterday.Also -- asked why he did not capture certain road camera images. He said some of the images were not relevant.Next hearing in one week.

2/2 It is not uncommon for defense attorneys to try to poke holes in police work.There was not enough detail given today in the hearing to really know whether police made any mistakes.

Bryan Kohberger returns to Latah County courtroom at 2:30 today for another pretrial hearing. I’ll be following along with live updates this afternoon.


Waiting for Judge to start his Livestream. We also have a reporter in the Moscow courtroom, along with other news outlets covering the #Kohberger hearing today. Should be interesting since defense has a witness. Change of venue hearing isn't until June 27.


It's started! Kohberger in the courtroom with Taylor, state has Thompson and Jennings at table. Motions to compel discovery at issue.


Witness with Detective Lawrence Mowrey of the Moscow Police Department. He investigated homicides at 1122 King Road. His work was with cell phone analysis and collection of video from around community.


Taylor is asking the Moscow detective about his training on cellular towers and providers by FBI CAST members. Mowrey's certificates entered as exhibits.


Name is spelled Lawerence Mowery, according to MPD website. Defense is asking about a report he looked at it yesterday. He found 6 or 7 items in session logs. She's asking for details.


He gave records to prosecutor yesterday. AT&T warrant returns covered a 48-hour period, and a longer period of time. She's asking about specific files. Taylor asks if she can have those 3 files and emails. Detective says yes. Data file had references to locations.


Taylor is asking when he was asked to review reports. Program was used in spring 2023 to access call detail records, related to Kohberger's phone number, detective says. Screenshots were taken. I wasn't main person looking at call detail records, he says. Info used for grand jury


Mowery created visual records for grand jury. Taylor is asking why a session log was never created. She appears to be questioning his forensic process and is now asking about videos of main roads in and out of Moscow. "Did you do a preservation for anything?" Taylor asks.


Mowery says he did not have still shots of road preserved. Taylor is now asking about Red Star Coffee Shop videos. She wants to track where they went. He doesn't have that info.


Deputy Prosecutor Ashley Jennings is asking about a specific software that shows location and directions of cell towers. He produced a visual display, created screenshots, made sure time was correct. He did not have a reason to save the settings, detective said.


Session files have been provided, he says. Looked into http://windy.com, which have screenshots on a website. Time frame wasn't what we were interested in, and that's why they weren't preserved, he says. Turned over to defense anyway.


We looked back then, but the screenshots were mainly during the daytime and not what was needed, detective says. Taylor is showing him a map. Screen capture of map admitted. She wants to know if she needs exact same software program to recreate what he did. He doesn't know.


Mowery says he didn't feel need to create a session log. Taylor is trying to make a point that she can't see what he did. Witness is excused.


OK, my feed just went down, so I'm guessing this hearing is done. Next one is a week away. Thanks for following along today. We'll have more details in Anthony Kuipers' article in Tribune.
