Major update in Bryan Kohberger Idaho murders case - as new mugshot of suspect is revealed

A bombshell update in the Bryan Kohberger murder trial emerged on Sunday morning.

The 29-year-old criminology lecturer accused of stabbing four University of Idaho students to death was flown to a new location where the trial will be held. 

Kohberger was transported from Latah County, where the stabbings occurred, to Ada County, according to Fox News. 

This move comes after the Idaho Supreme Court ordered that the case be moved to a different venue.

A new mugshot of Kohberger was taken at the Ada County Sheriffs Office.

The accused quadrupled murder looked rugged with an unkempt beard and bloodshot eyes in his latest mugshot. 

The murder suspects attorneys argued that his trial would be unfair if it was held in Latah County because of the communitys emotional ties to the case. 

Ada County is about 300 miles south of Latah County and Boise, the capital of Idaho, is located there. 

A new judge, Steven Hippler, has been assigned to this case, but Latah prosecutors are expected to stay on it, according to NBC News.

Kohberger was handcuffed and in an orange jumpsuit when he arrived in Boise in a small plane. He was moved to a black SUV.

Kohberger will go on trial in June 2025 for the killing of four college students in September 2022 

He is going on trial for the quadruple killings of students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle on November 13, 2022.

Theories revealed in journalist Howard Blums book When the Night Comes Falling: A Requiem for the Idaho Student Murders state that Mogen was his only intended target. 

The trial is scheduled from June 2 to August 29, 2025.
