Idaho student stabbings suspect claims innocence, cites solo drive alibi

Defense attorneys for Bryan Kohberger, the man accused of stabbing four University of Idaho students to death, have filed court documents stating that he was on a long solo drive around the time of the killings. Kohberger's defense team mentioned that he often went for drives alone, including on the night of November 12 and into November 13, 2022, when the students were killed. They also indicated that there may be witnesses who can corroborate his absence from the crime scene. The defense is still reviewing evidence and transcripts, so specific details about the witnesses are not yet available. Prosecutors had requested Kohberger to disclose if he plans to present an alibi defense, which requires notifying the prosecution in advance.
