LATAH COUNTY, Idaho -- Prosecutors working the quadruple murder case involving the accused, Bryan Kohberger, said Friday they aren't buying the alibi his defense has put forth.
Kohberger's legal team said their client was driving around during the early hours of November 13, 2022, and drove "throughout the area south of Pullman, Washington west of Moscow, Idaho including Wawawai Park.
Prosecutors said the defendant's alibi lacks specificity and should "state the specific place or places at which the defendant claims to have been at the time of the alleged offense and the names and addresses of the witnesses upon whom he intends to rely to establish such alibi" according to Idaho Code 19-519.
Kohberger's attorneys have been offering minimal information on the alibi, beginning last summer.
The prosecution is also fighting against having potential testimony on the location of Kohberger's cell phone that fateful morning, saying Kohberger's cell phone stopped reporting to the cell tower network before the murders and continued to remain untraceable until after the homicides.
A key issue for the defense: Kohberger's lawyers have offered no witnesses who can vouch for where he was when Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves were killed in an off-campus, shared house near the University of Idaho.
Another hearing was scheduled for the morning of Thursday, May 2.
