Four Killed University of Idaho

FILE - Bryan Kohberger, the man accused of fatally stabbing four University of Idaho students, is escorted into court for a hearing in Latah County District Court, Sept. 13, 2023, in Moscow, Idaho.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Attorneys for a man charged with murder in connection with the killings of four University of Idaho students are asking a judge to throw out most of the evidence in the case because they say it all hinges on an unconstitutional genetic investigation process.

Bryan Kohberger's defense team also contends that the search warrants in the case were tainted by police misconduct. A two-day hearing on the matter started Thursday, and much of it was closed to the public. If they are successful, it could throw a major wrench in the prosecution's case before trial starts in August.
