TL;DR Summary

Bryan Kohberger, the criminology PhD student accused of murdering four University of Idaho students, appeared in court for a hearing to argue for the dismissal of the grand jury indictment against him. The judge denied the motion but unexpectedly allowed cameras in the courtroom. Kohberger's defense team had filed the motion earlier this year, citing a biased grand jury, inadmissible evidence, and prosecutorial misconduct. The defense argued that the grand jury was given the wrong instructions, but the judge stated that it was the same instruction given for 100 years. Kohberger is linked to the murders through DNA evidence, cellphone data, an eyewitness account, and his white Hyundai Elantra.
