More evidence has been revealed that prosecutors argue ties Bryan Kohberger to the murders of four University of Idaho students following his indictment in May.
DNA evidence found on a knife sheath left near the body of one of the murdered students is a"statistical match" to Kohberger, prosecutors said in recent court documents. Investigators had already matched the DNA to"the biological father of the individual" who left the DNA on the sheath, but this more concrete DNA match further connects Kohberger to the homicides, prosecutors said.
The FBI had originally loaded the DNA profile from the knife sheath onto publicly available genealogy sites, according to court documents. Investigators collected trash from Kohberger's parents' home in Pennsylvania and used the trash to compare Kohberger's father's DNA to the knife sheath, according to court documents released earlier this year.
Judge John C. Judge entered a not guilty plea for Kohberger related to four counts of first-degree murder and one count of felony burglary on May 22. Kohberger and his counsel opted to stand silent.
