KOHBERGER ‘GETS AWAY WITH MURDER?’ 2 MYSTERY MEN’S BLOOD-DNA AT MURDER SCENE

CRIME Stories with Nancy Grace

Bryan Kohberger’s attorneys say investigators found blood from an unknown man on a handrail in the victims’ home and another person’s DNA on a glove outside. Anne Taylor argues this could indicate Kohberger’s lack of involvement in the crime. Although court filings acknowledged the unknown DNA samples last year, they did not disclose that at least two of the samples were from blood.

During Kohberger’s last hearing, Taylor accused authorities of withholding information, saying police did not disclose the unidentified blood when obtaining a search warrant for Kohberger’s arrest. She argues this omission should invalidate some evidence collected during the search because it was not properly authorized.

Kohberger’s attorneys also allege the FBI illegally obtained his DNA, violating the Fourth Amendment’s protection against illegal searches and seizures. They argue that submitting Kohberger’s DNA to a public ancestry database was improper because law enforcement cannot legally use the site.

The attorneys also claim that police did not submit two other blood samples from the scene to the FBI’s DNA database due to eligibility issues and failed to inform the magistrate judge about them. Taylor argues this omission should disqualify some of the evidence obtained
