New details released in University of Idaho killings
(WBRE/WYOU)— Shocking new details surrounding the Brian Kohberger case have been revealed Friday in a special NBC Dateline report. The man accused of murdering four University of Idaho students faces trial this summer. Friday evening, Dateline aired a two-hour special sharing new details, evidence and video that took place before and after the murder. High-tech cameras aid in tracking Terence Ray's movements Former Luzerne County Assistant District Attorney Jarret Ferentino has extensively analyzed this case from the beginning and says it's only looking worse for the accused. With the trial of accused Bryan Kohberger now 12 weeks away it's the crime no one can forget. In Dateline's 'The Terrible Night on King Road,' evidence appears to be stacking up against the man accused of stabbing four college students to death. 'As the new information comes out, it is painting a dark picture of Bryan Kohberger, 'said Ferentino. Former Luzerne County Assistant District Attorney Jarret Ferentino has analyzed this case on many national news networks since the murder happened in 2022. 'What happened in that house? Why four victims, why any, teased dateline host Keith Morrison. Narrated by Dateline's Keith Morrison, the special provided more insight into those questions. Investigators say Kohberger was found shopping on Amazon for a KA-BAR knife and sheath. It matched the same brand of sheath found in the bed of one of the victims. Home security video 'exclusively' obtained by Dateline near the murder scene shows the white car investigators believe was driven by Kohberger circling the block around the time of the murders several times. And police say, Kohberger searched the internet before and after the murders for information about serial killer Ted Bundy. 'All of these pieces of evidence together are very very strong. Individually, what the defense is going to try and do is knock each of them out one at a time, but you run into a brick wall here the DNA is in,' stated Ferentino. And that DNA, Ferentino says, will be the toughest piece of evidence for the defense to explain. 'Good luck with that,' wished Ferentino. And that's not all, Morrison had an exclusive interview with a woman who exchanged numbers with kohberger at a pool party months before the killings. She said the text message she received from him made her uncomfortable. Prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty if Kohberger is convicted in trial. Ferentino says nothing can change that unless Kohberger pleads guilty. At this phase, this close to trial, Ferentino feels the defense is up against the clock. 'They are running out of options,' stated Ferentino. Bryan Kohberger's trial is set to begin on august 11. Ferentino anticipates from now until then both the defense and prosecution will be mentally and physically preparing for a 4-6 month long case. To look at our full interview, click here.
