Bryan Kohberger’s trial start date has come and gone, with the accused killer still proclaiming his innocence.
The trial was postponed after Kohberger waived his right to a speedy trial, and the judge accepted it. Kohberger’s attorney, Anne Taylor, said the defense team needs more time to effectively present their case.
The search for evidence that Kohberger knew his victims continues. Investigators say digital evidence and surveillance video links Kohberger to the murders. The defense says there is no connection, but the Gonsalves family tells a “48 Hours” investigation that after learning Kohberger’s name, they did their own online search.
They say they found an Instagram account they believe belongs to Kohberger which followed both Maddie Mogen and Kaylee Gonsalves. That account has now been deactivated.
No word on a new trial date.
