In a recent development in the Idaho student murders case, Bryan Kohberger's defense team has raised objections to a judge's order prohibiting both sides from contacting potential jurors ahead of a change-of-venue hearing. The hearing could potentially move the trial out of Latah County, where the slayings occurred.
The defense team, led by attorney Anne Taylor, argued that the State's strategic move to ban contact with potential jurors infringed upon Kohberger's 14th Amendment rights to due process. The defense had been conducting a survey on potential jurors, particularly focusing on bias assessment in a potential death penalty case.
