In Episode 807, we note that the Clerk on August 20, 2025 noted on the Case Summary Page that both sides - State and Defense - filed their court-ordered responses to the August 4, 2025 order directing them to file any objections (or non-objections) to unsealing documents from the Idaho v. Kohberger case they filed under seal from June 2 - July 24, 2025.
As the August 4, 2025 order gave them 14 days to do so, we further opine and speculate the State and Defense have complied with the Court's order on the last possible date to do so - 14 days from the entry of said order.

Payne under penalty of perjury on Dec. 29, 2022 states he arrived at 4 PM.

In Episode 801, we provide opinions and a current update as of the early morning hours of August 14, 2025 concerning the potential unsealing of hundreds if not potentially thousands of records that were sealed from public disclosure in the 2.5 years that the Idaho v. Kohberger case proceeded (from Dec. 29, 2022 through July 23, 2025).
Amongst other matters, we observe that the Ada County Court in Idaho where the Idaho v. Kohberger case had been pending has published a notification that the unsealing of the case is anticipated to be a lengthy undertaking. This notice also provides an explanation as to where any such documents will appear as they are unsealed.

In Episode 798, we review a court order rendered by Judge Steven J. Hippler late in the day on August 4, 2025 announcing the beginning of what appears to be a lengthy process in deciding which, if any, sealed documents should be released to the public.
"Stage I" addressed in this order require the parties to respond with their objections or non-objections to the potential release of 43 sealed documents dated from June 2, 2025 to July 24, 2025 within 14 days (or approximately August 18, 2025).
As the case of Idaho v. Kohberger was active for approximately 2.5 years with documents sealed from the beginning of the case on forward, we opine that this process could take many months before it is concluded.

In Episode 780, we address the Declaration of Rebecca Boone, a journalist, on behalf of the media's motion to unseal documents from the Idaho v. Kohberger case file.
Within this Declaration, Ms. Boone counted each order to seal documents since the case began.

In Episode 778, we note that the State of Idaho has filed a Response to the Media's four (4) filings of July 3, 2025 seeking to vacate the gag order.
In an "about face" to their position at the Change of Plea Hearing of July 2, 2025 when the State advised Judge Hippler they opposed the vacating of the non-dissemination order, the State now says it no longer opposes the lifting of the same. However, at this time, the gag order remains in full force and effect.

In Episode 777, we note that the Media's July 3, 2025 motion to vacate the non-dissemination order is set for hearing tomorrow July 17, 2025 and that as of this time only the State (not Defense) has filed a Response opposing the setting aside of the gag order.
As the Media however have now also filed documents seeking to unseal documents that have been sealed from the public in this case, might the issue of the many documents that continue to remain under seal even after Mr. Kohberger pled guilty to all counts against him be raised? We give opinions as to what we anticipate may happen at tomorrow's hearing.

In Episode 703, we express opinions RE: the lack of update to the public in the nearly month since the time of the Court's Documents and Records Hold Orders rendered May 15, 2025 were rendered vowing to hold the person responsible for possible violations of the non-dissemination order to account - as matters speed toward Voir Dire and Trial.

we discuss the fact that 16 more out-of-state subpoenas for trial witnesses - this time from Whitman County, Washington are currently working their way through the court system. We note that Whitman County is home to Pullman where Mr. Kohberger was working as a graduate teaching assistant, studying during his first semester as a Ph.D. candidate and living at the time the crimes at 1122 King Road occurred.

We also raise the rhetorical question for discussion/educational purposes that given the sheer number of out-of-state witnesses the public has recently learned of: Is the 12 week time the Court has set aside for the bifurcated trial commencing August 11, 2025 too conservative of an estimate of just how much time will be needed to try this case?

In Episode 698, we address one of the five trial subpoenas the Defense is seeking to domesticate in the Commonwealth of PA. It is directed toward a particular witness in PA at his place of business, described as a used auto sales organization. The rhetorical question for discussion questions of could this possibly be relative to Mr. Kohberger's purchase of his 2015 Hyundai Elantra is posed.

In Episode 696, we discuss the fact that a hearing will be held at the Monroe County, PA Courthouse on June 30, 2025 based on the Defense's seeking to secure the attendance at trial of five (5) Pennsylvania residents. To do so they must "domesticate" the Idaho trial subpoenas in Monroe County, PA - the same county where Mr. Kohberger was arrested in back on December 30, 2022.

In Episode 694, we address two court orders rendered by Judge Hippler granting the State of Idaho's motions to seal their response and supplemental response to the Defense's 23rd Request for Discovery. However, the Court makes it clear that these motions are until "a hearing can be held on the matter.'

In Episode 367, we note that while Judge Steven J. Hippler's pretrial and trial order does not state the July 30, 2025 voir dire (process of jury selection) in the high-profile capital case of Idaho v. Kohberger will be closed to the public, the Court rendered words to the effect at the May 15,. 2025 Final PreTrial Conference (i.e. a proclamation from the bench) that jury selection would be closed. However, the Court also at the Final PreTrial conference stated the the trial itself commencing August 11, 2025 would be open to the public and live-streamed.
No written order however has been rendered as of yet regarding either matter. Our prior content discussing the U.S. Supreme Court case governing voir dire is here:

In Episode 682, we discuss the fact that Judge Steven J. Hippler granted the Defense's Motion to Seal their Amended Phase II (Penalty/Sentencing) Phase Mitigation Witnesses and has ordered that said list be sealed from public disclosure. The episode directly relates to Episode 681 where we addressed that defense motion, now granted by the Court.

In Episode 681, we discuss the fact that on May 29, 2025, the Defense submitted their third court filing since May 22, 2025 dealing with Penalty Phase Mitigation Witnesses which would come into play in the event of a conviction.
In this third filing, the Defense is seeking an Order sealing their Amended Mitigation Witnesses for "Phase Two" which is the sentencing/penalty phase.

In Episode 680, we discuss the fact that the Defense on May 28, 2025 filed Defendant's Notice of Compliance regarding a matter addressed in the October 9, 2024 Order rendered by Judge Steven J. Hippler which directed the parties to file a joint spreadsheet with each side's objections to the other side's proposed exhibits.
We opine here that the Defense appears to be attempting to "correcting the record" relative to a statement made by the State which was addressed in Episode 668 of this podcast series that Defense failed to identify which exhibits they intend to introduce at the Guilt vs. the Penalty phase of the forthcoming trial.

In Episode 679, we note that the State of Idaho's Response to the Defense's Motion to Continue the trial date filed and served 10 days ago has still not been published on the docket or noted on the Case Summary Page as of this date, May 29, 2025. We provide our pure opinions on the matter.
With time ticking away regarding the dates when prospective jurors must report to the courthouse to complete juror questions and return a second time for Voir Dire on July 30. 2025, we outline the many events that still must occur before Judge Hippler will be able to enter a written order as to whether the Defense's Motion should be granted or not.

We opine that no details are provided in the Court Order or the Motion that would provide the public with notice of what Defense was ordered to turn over to the State and when this directive was rendered by Judge Hippler.

In Episode 676, we note that in a rare filing by Jay Logsdon, Esq. on behalf of Mr. Kohberger, that Defense is seeking the entry of a court order to permit Mitigation Witnesses to View the Case in Chief/Guilt Phase Proceedings. This motion was filed on May 22, 2025 and points out that the Mitigation Witnesses would not be providing testimony during the Case in Chief/Guilt Phase.

In Episode 673, we note that on May 23, 2025 the Defense filed a Motion to Seal its Evidence and Exhibits in support of its Offer of Proof of Alternate Perpetrators (to Mr. Kohberger).
This filing was in compliance with Judge Hippler's directive at the May 15, 2025 Final PreTrial Conference that the Defense was to submit evidence in support of Mr. Kohberger's May 14, 2025 (under seal) submission of Offer of Proof of Alternate Perpetrators.

In Episode 672, we note that one day later on May 23, 2025 the Latah County Prosecutor, William Thompson, Esq. filed a Supplemental Notice of Compliance regrading the May 15, 2025 Order. In it Mr. Thompson describes an "ex parte" letter sent to the Court of that date.

In Episode 671, we note that the State of idaho and Defense on May 22, 2025 publicly filed a Notice of Compliance of their compliance with the Court's May 15, 2025 Document and Records Hold Order.
We had previously anticipated the parties might file such a public notice to inform the Court, opposing counsel and the public that they had submitted information and documentation to the Court for an in camera review regarding the Court's concerns over possible violations of the non-dissemination order as directed by the May 15, 2025 orders.

In Episode 670, we provide our pure opinions as to an apparent lack of any updates from the Court to the public regarding the status of the proceeding for five days, as critical items concerning the case are pending. We further opine that to not see the docket or case summary page updated for this length of time appears to be an unusual event in the history of the case which has been proceeding since December 29, 2025.

In Episode 669, exactly one week after the Defense's May 20, 2025 Motion for a Continuance was filed, we discuss argument within that motion suggesting seeking of a continuance may be merely the tip of the iceberg of remedies that may be sought regarding prejudice suffered by Mr. Kohberger arising from negative pre-trial publicity.
Defense points out that in addition to the "leak" regarding the May 9, 2025 two-hour Dateline special on the case, there may be a second leak regarding a forthcoming book on the case and that the remedy of a continuance in and of itself may not be enough and that "all" of the state's evidence may need to be called into question.

In Episode 668, we discuss a document filed May 15, 2025 but which was not published on the docket until on or about May 23, 2025. It is State's Notice of Compliance with the Court's Pre-Trial and Trial Order requiring the parties to create a spreadsheet identifying trial exhibits and objections to the other side's proposed exhibits.
Here, the State refers to its objections to certain of the defense's exhibits . This was the first of two such filings by the State, the second of which, an amended Notice of Compliance, is dated May 22, 2023.

In Episode 667, we discuss the fact that three items related to the Idaho v. Kohberger state case was filed in the federal defamation case styled as Schofield v. Guillard, Cae No. 3:22-cv-00521-REP, which was bought by a University of Idaho professor alleging defamation against an internet sleuth/psychic Ashley Guillard alleging defamation.

In Episode 666. we note that Mr. Kohberger's court-ordered deadline to supplement his May 14, 2025 Offers of Proof RE: Alternate Perpetrators was May 23, 2025, but that the record (as of the time the docket was last updated on May 23, 2025) does not include evidence of what he may have submitted. A hearing on the matter remains pending on June 18, 2025 at 12:30 pm

In Episode 665, we note that the State of Idaho and the Defense filed a total of three (3) notices of compliance on May 22-23, 2025, per notations on the Case Summary Page. No details are provided what the parties were complying with in submitting these documents. Although all three were filed as a public record, none were released to the public as of May 23, 2025 -- the last date the Clerk updated the docket.

In Episode 663, we note that the Court on May 22, 2025 entered an Order on May 22, 2025, granting a Defense Motion to Seal Exhibit "F" to its 6th Supplemental Response to the State of Idaho's discovery request a few hours after that motion to seal another exhibit to discovery was filed (also on May 22, 2025). No reason appears showing how or why disclosure under the rule of court or statute authorizing sealing of documents from public disclosure has been met.
We opine here this follows a continuing trend established at the start of the case where the parties will file a document on the public docket serving or responding to discovery, but requesting that an exhibit (with the actual discovery requests or responses) to be filed under seal.
In Episode 662, we note that the defense on May 21, 2025 filed a motion to seal its objections to the Juror Questionnaires in anticipation of the upcoming Summer 2025 trial in Idaho v. Kohberger. One day later on May 22, 2025, the Court granted this motion thereby ordering Defense's objections to the juror questionnaires to be sealed from public disclosure.

In Episode 661, we note that the docketed May 22, 2025 Notice of Compliance (Amended) previously documented by the Clerk on the Case Summary Page is not a Notice of Compliance with the Court's May 15, 2025 Records Retention and Hold Order issued to Both Sides mandating information be submitted for in camera review within 7 days or on or before May 22, 2025. Instead, it is a Notice of Compliance regarding another matter altogether.

In Episode 659, we not that on May 22, 2025, the Case Summary Page reflects the fact that one of the parties, identified by the Clerk, have filed a "Notice of Compliance" this date.
We opine that this may be in compliance with the May 15, 2025 Document and Records Hold Order which required both sides to submit certain information associated with a possible violation of the non-dissemination order under threat of sanctions to Judge Hippler for an in-camera review within seven (7) days.

In Episode 657, we note that on May 20, 2025, the Defense filed a Motion to Continue the Trial of this matter, citing to various constitutional grounds including Mr. Kohberger's 14th Amendment Due Process Privileges of a right to a fair trial.
Mr. Kohberger cites to substantial negative pretrial publicity arising from a May 9, 2025 Dateline NBC Special called "The Terrible Night on King Road" and also a forthcoming book about the case that is scheduled to be published by best selling author James Patterson.

In Episode 656, we note that 48 hours prior to the May 22, 2025 deadline where both sides have been ordered produce information to Judge Hippler concerning possible violations of the non-dissemination order the Court found had a negative impact on seating a fair and impartial jury, the Defense on May 20, 2025 filed a Motion to Continue. Given this timeframe, we ponder and proffer opinions that the defense motion may be a motion to adjourn the trial of this cause.

In Episode 655, we note that Judge Steven J. Hippler entered an order granting the Defense's May 14, 2025 Motion to Seal Offers of Proof RE: Alternate Perpetrators (to Mr. Kohberger).
We note that which the Court's Order was rendered and filed on the public docket on May 15, 2025, it took approximately five (5) days to appear on the docket - as it did on May 20, 2025.

In Episode 653, we note that on May 14, 2025 the Defense filed a Second Motion to Seal its Proposed Jury Instructions and that the Court granted this relief in an order dated May 14, 2025.
No reason is given why Defense is filing a Second Set of Jury Instructions one month after its (First) Set were due - and had been previously filed under seal. We opine that while the Court continues to seal all jury instructions in this proceeding, no reference has been made by Judge Hippler or the parties that the Court's October 9, 2024 Pre-Trial/Trial Order did not require proposed jury instructions to be filed under seal.

In Episode 651, we note that four interrelated items now appear on the public docket in the capital case of Idaho v. Kohberger.
The first two items are State of Idaho filings of May 13, 2025 seeking to reclaim exhibits offered or admitted at the May 2023 Secret Grand Jury proceedings which resulted in an indictment returned against Mr. Kohberger. The second State filing requested that the list identifying the Grand Jury exhibits in the motion be filed under seal.
On May 14, 2025, Judge Steven J. Hippler entered orders granting both requests one day later thereby returning the original Grand Jury exhibits to the State and sealing the list identifying what the exhibits are.

In Episode 649: we proffer opinions as to whether or not recent developments raising issues of whether the Court's Non-Dissemination Order was violated and the impact of the same result in a possible adjournment of the jury trial date current set to occur on August 11, 2025.
To view the stipulation for the non-dissemination order requested by lead counsel for both sides on January 3, 2023 and the non-dissemination order entered that date on that stipulation please watch our presentation published 5 days before the May 15, 2025 Orders discussed in this podcast episode were entered:

In Episode 644, we observed that Judge Steven J. Hippler the district court judge in the capital case styled as Idaho J. Hippler addressed the possibility of appointing a special prosecutor to investigate possible violation of the non-dissemination (a/k/a "gag" order) that has been in effect since January 3, 2023 during the May 15, 2025 Final Pre-Trial Conference.
The Court indicated that he would enter a written order directing the State of Idaho and Defense to maintain all applicable records concerning possible violations of said non-dissemination order, less than a week after alleged evidence from the case under seal was produced in the mass media.

In Episode 643, we note that on May 14, 2025 Judge Steven J. Hippler rendered an Amended Order Governing Courtroom Conduct which supersedes the the Order Governing Courtroom Conduct entered by him shortly after the venue change from Latah to Ada County occurred in September 2024.
We opine that not only does this Amended Order include much stronger language providing notice of potential contempt of court charges, trespassing charges, fines and even imprisonment to those who do not comply, but seems to include stronger warnings to the media - just days after mass media published what appears to be evidence that has long been under seal in this case.

In Episode 642, we note that on May 14, 2025 the Clerk of Court has updated the Case Summary Page in Idaho v. Kohberger with three new documents. Two are state filings concerning their exhibits, both of which were filed May 13, 2025.
One of these items dated May 14, 2025 is entitled "Notice of Compliance" which may be the Defense's Offers of Proof as to Alternate Perpetrators. Unfortunately, it does not state which party filed the document or what the Notice of Compliance is for, such as if the Defense has not complied with the Court's April 18, 2024 Court Order directing Mr. Kohberger to file his Offers of Proof by May 14, 2025. This is also a public record. It however does not appear on the public docket as of yet.

In Episode 641, we note that with Mr. Kohberger's court-ordered deadline of May 14, 2025 to submit Offers of Proof of Alternate Perpetrators, that as of May 13, 2025 the Case Summary Page and Docket shows no submissions from him as of that date.

In Episode 640, we note that two items appeared on the public docket on May 13, 2025 regarding a proposed joint jury instruction Judge Hippler on April 18, 2025 ordered the parties to submit. The same concerned the tip that led law enforcement to investigate Mr. Kohberger. Said proposed jury instruction was filed under seal on May 9, 2025 according to the Case Summary Page.
The first item is a motion dated May 9, 2025 submitted by the State seeking a court order sealing said proposed jury instruction. The second item is the court order of May 12, 2025 granting this relief and thereby sealing this joint proposed jury instruction from the public domain.

In Episode 639, we note that two documents were filed on May 9, 2025 per the Case Summary Page. The first is a Motion to Redact or Seal the Jury Instruction submitted by the parties to the Court "Regarding the Tip Leading to Investigation of Mr. Kohberger," a public record which does not yet appear on the docket.

In Episode 638, in light of recent negative publicity in the mass media, we look back upon evidence produced in support of Mr. Kohberger's January 30, 2024 Motion for Change of Venue from Latah County supported by expert witness testimony. Interestingly, two of the four experts who testified at the August 28, 2024 hearing on Mr. Kohberger's Change of Venue Motion discussed the possible negative impact of pretrial publicity on the residents of Ada County.

In Episode 635, we note that on May 7, 2025 a member of mainstream media began publicizing a "special event" concerning the Idaho v. Kohberger case showcasing what was publicized in part as materials in the hands of law enforcement and which was scheduled to air and did air on May 9, 2025.

In Episode 635, an official document was released on the court docket on May 8, 2025. The public's interest however er in our opinion appears to be focused on the possible leaking of major evidence in the case just 82 days before jury selection and while a jury questionnaire will be administered. In this purely opinion piece proffered per the First Amendment, inquiries are raised over the possible impact of the same and what if any ramifications may follow - in a case where venue was already changed once due to pretrial publicity.

In Episode 634, we note that the Defense on May 5, 2025 filed a motion to seal its penalty phase lay witness list citing to a rule of court and statute while neglecting to mention that Judge Hippler had ordered this document to be filed under seal in the October 9, 2024 Pre-Trial and Trial Order.
Similarly, the Court's order granting this motion also cites to a rule of court and statute without making mention that the court ordered this document to be filed under seal in the first place approximately seven (7) months ago.

In Episode 632, we note that "internet sleuth" Ashley Guillard who lost on summary judgment two claims brought against her in federal court by University of Idaho Professor Patricia Schofield was denied access to sealed court records in Idaho v. Kohberger on the grounds she was a non-party and not entitled to file pleadings there.

In Episode 631, which is in follow-up to Episode 629 where we addressed the fact that Judge Hippler had rendered an order authorizing the Kohberger family to remain in the courtroom during Mr. Kohberger's trial irrespective of when they are called to the stand to testify on behalf of the State. As the Kohberger family are not in Idaho, any trial subpoena would likely need to be "domesticated" in the Commonwealth of PA where they are believed to reside.

The Court has also ordered that Defense Counsel - along with State's Counsel - may be present to witness the State's expert's examination (which State opposed) but must do so in a manner where counsel do not interrupt the examination.

In Episode 624, in follow-up to Episode 623, we provide further information that adds to the mystery why one of the parties on May 2, 2025 filed a Notice (per the Case Summary Page) of the Filing of a Penalty Phase Lay Witness List and a Request for Victim Impact Statements.
While the list of Penalty Phase Lay Witnesses was required to be filed by operation of the October 9, 2024 Pre-Trial and Trial Order under seal by May 5, 2025, that Order makes no mention at all of Victim Impact Statements.

When this item first appeared on the Case Summary Page, there was some thought it might have been State's Notice of Compliance of producing court-ordered information to Judge Hippler for ex parte in camera review RE: State's calling of Kohberger family members as State trial witnesses.

In Episode 618, we note that Judge Hippler on April 29, 2025 denied yet another Defense Motion to Strike the DP from consideration in the event of a conviction. This denial follows denials on a number of Defense motions to strike the DP rendered back in October 2024 as well as a recent motion in limine to strike the DP.
Here, the Defense sought an order striking the DP as a discovery sanction and for the Court to adopt other necessary procedures on due process and other grounds. In denying this motion, we opine it appears more likely than not that the DP will be on the table in the event of a conviction in any future penalty phase of the trial.

We also observe the fact that Judge Hippler stated here that the order granting the sealing of these documents are until such time that a hearing may be held on the matter.

Here we review one of the most hotly-contested in limine matters entertained by the Court at the "marathon" April 9, 2025 hearings concerning State's cell phone expert S.A. Nicholas Balance vs. Defense cell phone expert Sy Ray.
The court rejects what he at one point refers to as Mr. Ray's "complaining" and has found that Balance's disclosures comport with what Idaho law requires. Thus, he will be permitted to testify at trial with the Defense free to raise objections during the case-in-chief.

Two challenged State expert witnesses are Heather and Jared Barnhardt described as "Digital Experts" who were retained by law enforcement to analyze Mr. Kohberger's cellular phone and personal computer to determine "user behavior and actions." The Barnharts, who have been permitted to testify at trial by the Court, are expected to proffer trial testimony that "gaps in data may be consistent with 'cleaning up or using anti-forensic methods to clear evidence'" giving rise to a possible spoliation of evidence argument.

We provide our opinions that the State may be offering this expert's testimony as possible circumstantial evidence against Mr. Kohberger who's car was registered in Pennsylvania at the time of the crimes, a state unlike Idaho that did not require a front license plate.

We ask the rhetorical question and provide opinions as to whether this requirement does or does not comply with the Supreme Court of Idaho case all involved (State of Idaho, Defense, and the Judge Hippler) agree State v. Meister, 148 Idaho 236, 220P.3d 1055 (2009) controls.
The Meister case involved a 2001 unaliving "for hire" case where the defendant's unaliving conviction rendered by a Latah County jury was thrown out because the district court refused to allow Mr. Meister to introduce evidence of an alternative perpetrator - at trial. Amongst other matters, the Idaho Supreme Court found that federal constitutional guarantees were at stake when a party is denied the opportunity to present such evidence at trial.

We also briefly look back at this podcast's journey which began with Episode 1 which discussed Page 1 of the December 29, 2022 Affidavit of Probable Cause leading to Mr. Kohberger's arrest in our ongoing search for the truth of what happened at 1122 King Road.

In Episode 599, we address the fact that on April 21, 2025 the Defense filed its Motion to Seal (from public disclosure) its objections to the State of Idaho's jury instructions.
We note here at the parties were ordered to file their objections or stipulations concerning the other side's proposed jury instructions by operation of Judge Hippler's October 9, 2024 Court Order but that said Order did not direct that the jury instructions (and any objections thereto) were to be filed under seal.

In Episode 595, we note that the State of Idaho's deadline for submitting materials to the Court for an ex parte in camera inspection is Friday, April 25, 2025 concerning their calling of the Kohberger family to serve as their witnesses against Mr. Kohberger.
We address interesting issues surrounding the issue of how the State may subpoena the Kohbergers to appear at trial, as the family lives far from the Idaho jurisdiction in another state where any such trial subpoenas would need to be domesticated in Pennsylvania prior to service.

One of these documents are under seal, the other is a public record - both of which deal with Mr. Kohberger's lay witness list for the case-in-chief (a/k/a "guilt) phase of the trial which is set to commence on August 11, 2025.
We also address the fact that this is Mr. Kohberger's third act evidencing he will likely put on an active defense of the charges against him in this capital case.

In Episode 589, we note that April 21, 2025 is exactly 100 days until voir dire (the process of Jury Selection) on July 30, 2025. It is also the single busiest day in the history of the case in terms of multiple deadlines for trial-related matters to be filed and/or served.
We also note that another trial-related matter is due four days later on April 25, 2025, as the capital case of Idaho v. Kohberger rapidly progresses toward the August 11, 2025 jury trial.
In Episode 588, we note that Judge Hippler denied the State's Motion in Limine to preclude Mr. Kohberger from offering any evidence as to an alibi defense but has also thrown out the Sy Ray "partial alibi" previously proffered as insufficient to meet the requirements of Idaho law.

In Episode 587, we address Judge Hippler's April 18, 2025 written order on Defense's Motion in Limine # 5 as to inconclusive data regarding testing of fingernail clippings of one of the victims.
We discuss that as the State has said it will not offer this evidence as inculpatory to Mr. Kohberger that it has rendered Defense's motion as "moot" - which the Defense has agreed to. The terms moot, inculpatory and exculpatory are also discussed in this episode .

In Episode 586, we address the matter that Judge Steven J. Hippler granted the State's Motion in Limine to introduce a 3D not-to-scale model of the house where the crimes occurred at trial as a "demonstrative tool" so long as the State is able to lay the proper foundation for the same. In this ruling, the Court sets out several reasons why such a model used for demonstrative purposes only is relevant.
In this written order of April 18, 2025, the Court directed the State to turn over this model to Defense no later than the pretrial conference on May 15, 2025 so that it may be evaluated by its expert witness.

In Episode 585, we note that on April 18, 2025, Judge Steven J. Hippler rendered a written ruling granting in part the Defense's Motion in Limine # 14 RE: Statistical Analysis which boils down to the questioning of a lab analyst regarding statistical analysis of the results of testing of the sheath found at the crime scene as compared to global population during the May 2023 State Grand Jury proceedings. Here, the Court documents the fact that both sides agree the question was inappropriate and that if the Defense feels that a similar inquiry is asked at trial that Defense should raise an objection.
We opine what, if any, impact this public declaration documented by the trial court might have on appeal as the Defense had in 2023 unsuccessfully attempted to have the grand jury indictment set aside.

These relate to Mr. Kohberger's AT&T cell phone activity. The State here asserts it has turned over what it received from AT&T and that the additional records Defense claims the State was withholding do not esist.
The Court however has authorized Defense to conduct a limited "voir dire" of a law enforcement official outside of the presence of the jury at the future trial of this matter.

In Episode 571, we note that Judge Hippler on April 16, 2025 rendered a ruling on the State's Motion in Limine RE: Family members in the courtroom during Mr. Kohberger's trial. The court has ruled that in favor of the victim's family members being permitted to be present whether or not they are testifying at the case in chief based on Idaho statutory and constitutional law.
As to the concerning the Kohberger family being possibly called as witnesses by the State, the Court ordered the State to provide information for an in camera review who the family members are, the reason for calling them to testify and trial and why they could not be called "out of sequence" - i.e. early in the trial.

In Episode 569, we note that per the Case Summary Page maintained by the Clerk of Court, that the Defendant on April 15, 2025 filed additional exhibits containing their responses to the State of Idaho's discovery requests - under seal. We further opine that this is in continuation of a trend that occurred at the start of the case in January 2023 when the Defense and State have filed the substance of their discovery responses and requests under seal.

Although certain related documents including the parties ' motions to seal are public records, they do not appear on the public docket as of April 15, 2025 - the last date that the docket was updated.

Please note that Episode 567 is in follow-up to the Court's Order described in Episode 565 of this continuing Idaho v. Kohberger podcast series.
Here we discuss the fact that the Defense has submitted a document signed and docketed on April 10, 2025 in apparent compliance with the Court's Order of April 14, 2025. This Order directed the Defense to submit a redacted filing that would be released to the public concerning a sealed other filing: The disclosure of Mr. Kohberger's testing results to the State in discovery.

In Episode 566 we note that, per the Case Summary Page in Idaho v. Kohberger, the April 16, 2025 closed and sealed hearings on the matter of the proposed jury questionnaires has been cancelled with no further details as to why or whether or when this hearing is being reset to.
This hearing was set to occur on April 16th back on October 9, 2024 in the Redacted Order Governing Further Criminal Proceeding and Notice of Trial Setting - a/k/a the Pretrial and Trial Order.
Adding to the mystery is the only item that is "redacted" in the October 9, 2024 Order that set this hearing is the issue of the date of when the jury questionnaires will be administered to the citizens of Ada County who will be summoned to serve as possible jurors in the case.

In Episode 565, we review Judge Hippler's Order of April 14, 2025 sealing the Defendant's Response to State's First Supplemental Request for Discovery per a Stipulation entered into by the parties. However, the Court also states that "The defendant shall provide the Court with redacted copies for public view that will not be sealed." In our opinion, this appears to be in tune with the Court's prior declarations that both sides were to cease filing matters under seal.

In Episode 564, we note that per the Defense's April 10, 2025 Response to State's First Supplemental Request for Discovery RE: Transfer of Test Materials that an agreement was reached to have Mr. Kohberger's psychologist Dr. Orr turn over testing results to the State's psychologist/expert. We learn that that was meant to comply with APA ethical guidelines rather than to file the documents even under seal with the Court.

In Episode 563, we observe two critical deadlines of April 14, 2025 of items to be filed with the Court regarding the upcoming jury trial of this matter in Idaho v. Kohberger: Proposed Jury Instructions and the State and the Defense's Trial Briefs.
We explain examples of possible jury instructions and also address what a Trial Brief is and what may be included in the State and Defense's Respective Trial Brief, and whether these items are possibly going to be filed under seal and therefore outside of the public domain.

In Episode 562, we note the Defense on April 8, 2025 submitted a Notice of Filing indicating that they would be hand-delivering to the Court an Exhibit, a video of the body cam footage of a traffic stop of Mr. Kohberger in Moscow on August 21, 2022 which has never been released to the public, in support of their objection to the State's Motion in Limine in anticipation of oral argument on April 9, 2025.
The State is seeking a pre-trial ruling authorizing the introduction of this traffic stop resulting in a citation for a seat belt violation to be introduced as evidence at trial.

In Episode 561, we address the fact that the State of Idaho and the Defense are required to file their trial lay witness lists on or before April 21, 2025.
Because however the parties have been ordered to file their respective lay witness lists for trial under seal therefore the names of the witnesses will be filed outside of the public realm. We address the fact that because of this order, it is likely the public will not know who the trial witnesses until after the trial commences on August 11, 2025 - many months after the disclosure of the trial witnesses.

In Episode 560, we note Defense's 7th Motion to Compel Discovery - based on their 22nd Supplemental Discovery Request - filed March 6, 2025 and asking for a one hour hearing and the opportunity to present evidence remains outstanding. This discovery request dates back to January 2025.
We pose the rhetorical question of whether this matter has "fallen through the cracks" as it was never set for hearing with voir dire rapidly approaching.

In Episode 559, we address questions from listeners following up to a YouTube presentation addressing the forthcoming hearings on offers of proof regarding alternative perpetrators (to Mr. Kohberger) which per Judge Hippler would occur at or near the time of the May 15-16, 2025 Pre-Trial Conference.
The YouTube Presentation is here:

In Episode 558, we note that on April 8, 2025 the Defense filed its 4th Supplemental Response to the State's Discovery Request described as contained within an index in a contemporaneously filed "Exhibit D" referencing a January 25, 2025 protective order.
We also note that the Defense filed an April 8, 2025 Motion to Seal "Exhibit D" which Judge Hippler granted in an order dated April 10, 2025.
We observe that this filing of exhibits containing discovery requests/requests under seal follows a trend in the case where evidence requested and produced in discovery by both sides have by practice been filed under seal and therefore outside of the public domain.

In Episode 557, we note that an order sealing a document related to one of the most hotly-contested motions in limine RE: AT&T Timing Advance Records was entered by Judge Hippler on April 10, 2025.
This was one day after the hearings on all motions in limine occurred on April 9, 2025 and is based on a stipulation to seal an exhibit concerning the in limine motion RE: AT&T Timing Advance Records entered into by the State of Idaho and the Defense one day before the hearings on April 8, 2025.

In Episode 550, we address the multiple motions in limine which are set to be entertained at oral argument on April 9-10, 2025 by Judge Steven J. Hippler. Much is at state for both sides as the majority of these motions deal with what evidence will be authorized by the Court - the trier of the law - to be presented to the Trial of Fact the future jury, at the summer 2025 trial in Idaho v. Kohberger.
We also address the question of when will the public know what motions will be brought before the court at public v. private hearing.

In Episode 549, we noted the appearance of Special Assistant Attorney General Joshua Hurwit as counsel for the state of Idaho. We also note Mr. Hurwit "hit the ground running" based on two discovery-related documents filed April 2, 2025 which, unfortunately and a representing a continuing trend established in January 2023, included the substance of what has been requested in an accompanying document filed under seal.

n Episode 548, we note that per the calendar, the hearings on multiple motions in limine are days away. The stakes could not be higher for both sides depending on how Judge Hippler rules on these in limine motions as most deal with evidence the State will be permitted to introduce at trial.
The State's motion in limine regarding the alibi defense is rather unique due to the relief the State is seeking. They have argued Mr. Kohberger failed to fulfill his requirements for raising an alibi defense and they want the court to effectively strike it or in the alternative rule that Mr. Kohberger be ordered to take the stand in support of his alibi defense at the rapidly approaching summer trial in this case.

In Episode 546, we address the Defense's March 24, 2025 Reply to State's Responses to Defendant's Motion in Limine #12 pertaining to evidence related to the Make and Model of Suspect Vehicle 1. The Defense argues certain information should be kept out of the case regarding the travels of Suspect Vehicle 12 as invading the province of the jury.
In Episode 545, we note that two weeks after Judge Hippler denied the Defense's request that proposed expert witness Sy Ray be authorized to provide testimony in support of the Defense's objection to the State's in limine motion RE: alibi defense, and ordered that if the Defense wished to produce Mr. Ray as a witness corroborating Mr. Kohberger's alibi that he was to file a declaration.

As the Reply closes the in limine briefings as to this issue, all that's left is for Judge Hippler to render a ruling on the matter.

In Episode 528, we address the State of Idaho's March 21, 2025 Reply to the Defense's Response in Opposition to State's Motion in Limine Regarding Immediate Family Members (of the Victims) rights to be present in the Courtroom at Trial.
As there is no dispute concerning the State's Request, the State asks for an immediate ruling on the matter from Judge Hippler.
In responding to Mr. Kohberger's request to also have his immediate family members present at trial, the State objects on the grounds that while the Sixth Amendment guarantees Mr. Kohberger to the right to a public trial, he does not have the right to dictate which members of the public may be in the Courtroom. The State then discloses that the State may be including members of the Kohberger family on their trial witness list, which is due April 21, 2025, as further grounds to deny the Defense's request in this regard.
We are anticipating the release of more Replies - the final step in the Motions in Limine briefing schedule - by both sides dated March 24, 2025 in compliance with the Court's January 31, 2025 Order leading up to the upcoming hearings on these motions before Judge Hippler.

We note that the State of Idaho has indicated here the call was placed immediately after the discovery of Xana Kernodle as "unresponsive."

The Order in question relates to the Defense's Seventh Motion to Compel Discovery requested in the Defense's 22nd Supplemental Discovery Request and seeking authority to file "Exhibit A" (describing what discovery has allegedly been improperly withheld) under seal.
The Court's Order of March 7, 2025 has granted this request on good cause shown, thereby sealing Exhibit A from public disclosure.

The term "Xana was wearing all black" appears to be a tragic reference to clothing Xana Kernodle was wearing the last time one of the two surviving roommates saw her.

We learn here that Mr. Kohberger underwent an independent evaluation and was eliminated as a contributor. Defense is seeking to have this evidence barred in limine from the jury trial as overly prejudicial and violative of Mr. Kohberger's due process privileges.

An image timestamped just before the crimes occurred by a camera located at 1112 King Road appears on page 2 of this motion with a second photograph at page 3. We have also included a copy on the IndieZone YouTube Channel on the Community Page.

It is unclear why another filing was filed seeking the strike the DP as multiple defense motions were previously entertained (and denied) to strike the Notice of DP.

In Episode 466, we discuss a Feb. 28, 2025 court order effectively determining that all Defense Motions in Limine and State's Motions in Limine filed Feb. 24, 2025 are under seal, note that four prior State Motions in Limine are public records, and the impact of this order to upcoming hearings that will be closed or open to the public. We also address two other sets of matters that are scheduled for hearing in the near future.

In Episode 464, we address Judge Steven J. Hippler's Feb. 28, 2025 order sealing all defense motions in limine and those motions in limine filed by the State on Feb. 24, 2025. No explanation is given why the State's Feb. 21, 2025 four (4) in limine motions were quickly released. The court's ruling raises questions about what part of the hearings on the motions in limine (set for April 9 and if necessary April 10, 2025) will be sealed/closed vs. open to the public.

In Episode 463, we address the State of Idaho's pending Feb. 21, 2025 Motion in Limine RE: Alibi defense, the State's burden of proving their case against Mr. Kohberger beyond a reasonable doubt and how an alibi defense may help raise reasonable doubt.
We also opine what the State is asserting in their motion defense appears to have failed to do in order to satisfy the governing statute on alibis, which may be read here: https://legislature.idaho.gov/statutesrules/idstat/Title19/T19CH5/SECT19-519/

In Episode 462, as matters continue approaching the July 30, 2025 voir dire (process of jury selection) we address our listeners inquiries into the next confirmed hearing dates.
Although two April 2025 hearing dates appear on the Case Summary Page, Judge Hippler has in actuality set aside three dates in April 2025 for oral argument on pre-trial matters. We discuss what is confirmed as of the present time as to whether these hearings are open to the public, are closed/sealed, and/or are partially closed/sealed and partially open.

In Episode 459, we note that a sealed motion in limine was filed on Feb. 24, 2025 regarding the 911 call that, per the Dec. 29, 2022 Affidavit of Probable Cause.
We address the fact that unlike other high profile criminal cases, neither this 911 call or any portion of it has ever been released to the public and also address the issue of the "8 hour gap." This is a reference to the fact that the Affidavit of Probable Cause indicates that the crimes occurred approximately between 4:00 and 4:25 am but that Moscow Police Department did not arrive until minutes before noon. In between these two points, came the aforementioned 911 call which is now the subject of a sealed in limine motion .

We note that certain of these items are public records which have not yet been published on the public docket while others are filed under seal. Accordingly, we anticipate there will be a large document drop in the coming days relative to the public records filed on February 24, 2025.

In Episode 456, we review the State of Idaho's Feb. 21, 2025 Motion in Limine RE; Neuropsycholical and Psychiatric Evidence. Here, the State refers to defense expert witnesses identified in the (under seal) Defense Exhibits D-7 and D-13 and seeks to prohibit the Defense from offering expert testimony going to neuropsychological evaluation and psychiatric evaluation of the Defendant, also under seal.
We observe that per the Court's Oct 9, 2024 pretrial and trial order, these experts were disclosed for the "guilt" a/k/a "case in chief" phase of the trial (not penalty in the event of a conviction).

In Episode 455, we address a seemingly "bland" Feb. 24, 2025 defense motion for permission to submit a motion in limine exceeding a local rule's 10 page limit.
It is only upon review of the motion itself, which was granted by Judge Hippler in an order on this motion, that the public learns defense is seeking to in limine prevent the State from introducing at trial what Defense refers to as improperly disclosed descriptions of "touch" vs. "contact" DNA on the sheath as testified to by Rylene Nolan an official with the Idaho State Police Forensics Lab.
We also note this motion seeks to exceed the 10 page limit for the defense to argue why references to "bushy eyebrows" should also be excluded from the jury trial in this matter.

In Episode 454, we note that the State of Idaho's February 21, 2025 Motion in Limine seeking a court order to exclude defense presentation of evidence regarding any alternate suspect theories. This appears to be a boilerplate document simply going over the legal standard without explaining what exactly should be kept out of the case and why regarding matters that could raise reasonable doubt.

We proffer opinions concerning the apparent lack of timeliness in releasing these public records in a case which has had an airtight non-dissemination (a/k/a "gag" order) in one version or another in place since nearly the beginning of the proceedings along with a large number of filings under seal also since nearly the beginning of the case.

We note that this stipulation (agreement between the parties this material is properly sealed) follows a tradition established in the early days of this proceeding when the parties stipulated to a Non-Dissemination Order as they did on Jan. 3, 2023.

Here Judge Hippler states that the matter of ensuring the jury pool is not tainted with evidence that might not be admissible in the case requires that matters concerning IGG remain under seal until the end of trial "at the latest" requiring denial of the defense motion to unseal.

We note here that these additional exhibits were filed almost one month past the 7/22/24 deadline as agreed to by the parties in a 5/31/24 stipulation and order of 5/31/24 setting a schedule for deadlines for submissions by both sides prior to the change of venue hearing - as agreed to by both sides.

In Episode 258, we address the State of Idaho's 8/12/24 opposition to the defense's motion for change of venue. We note here that while the State takes issue with findings made by the defense's expert witnesses, the State has offered up no rebuttal experts in support of their position that less extreme measures than changing venue to ensure Mr. Kohberger's rights to a fair and impartial jury trial can be applied during the jury selection process. In the alternative, the State argues that if the Court is inclined to change venue, that the neighboring county of Nez Perce County would be a better option than Ada County, Mr. Kohberger's first choice, without providing expert testimony in support of this proposition.

In Episode 256, we review the 7/24/24 order granting the 7/23/24 stipulation entered into by the parties. We provide an opinion that it makes little sense that the danger to individuals set forth in the Stipulation as good cause to temporarily seal documents would suddenly "disappear" on 8/29/24 when defense states in the stipulation these same records will be used in open court at the hearing on defense's motion to change venue.

One of the reasons to temporarily seal these records from disclosure to the public for more than one month because "...the documents contain facts or statements that might threaten or endanger the life or safety of individuals" with no supporting details provided how this could be true or why once the records were disclosed "individuals" life or safety could possibly be threatened.

The reason for requesting adjournment of the hearing is that defense expert Dr. Bryan Edelman required six weeks to complete his survey process (which had been temporarily halted by entry of the Court's March 22, 2024 order), to evaluate the data collected, and to prepare his Declaration relative to the same. We also note that the granted motion requested the resetting of the deadline for defense disclosures to July 22, 2024, for the State's response to August 12, 2024 and the defense's reply to August 19, 2024.

No details are provided when or why the expert's opinion on Suspect Vehicle 1 changed. Mr. Kohberger has been charged with the first degree murders of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Gonclaves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin and burglary. If convicted, he faces the death penalty.

In Page 6 of the 12/29/22 Affidavit of Probable Cause, we observe what appears to be at least two (2) statements which are inconsistent with the timeline of the murders as stated in Pg. 5 of 4:00-4:25 am. We further observe what appears to be a "guess" as to what Suspect Vehicle 1's travels were near the 1122 King Road house at a point where no video captures it during this key timeframe. Mr. Kohberger has been charged with the first degree murders of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Gonclaves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin and burglary. If convicted, he faces the death penalty.

In Page 5 of the 12/29/22 Affidavit of Probable Cause, we learn that forensic analysis of the two surviving roommates "phone" (singular not plural) and other evidence led investigators to conclude the timeline of the crimes at 1122 King Road occurred between 4:00 and 4:25 am. Other evidence outlined on Pg. 5 include the discovery of a single "latent" shoe print suggesting the suspect's path of travel. Also discussed for the first time here is a vehicle described as a "white sedan" hereinafter referred to as "Suspect Vehicle 1." Mr. Kohberger has been charged with the first degree murders of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Gonclaves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin and burglary. If convicted, he faces the death penalty.

In Page 4 of the 12/29/22 Affidavit of Probable Cause we learn that sometime after 4:00 am, 1 of the 2 surviving roommates saw a male figure with bushy eyebrows clad in black with a face mask covering his mouth and nose walk towards her and then to a sliding glass door. Thereafter she went into a "frozen shock phase." Sometime before this, she stated, amongst other things, she thought she heard one of the victims from the third floor Kaylee say something to the effect of "there's someone here." However, the detective signing the Affidavit interjected his thoughts that this could have been another victim "Xana" from the second floor. Mr. Kohberger has been charged with the first degree murders of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Gonclaves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin and burglary. If convicted, he faces the death penalty.

The whereabouts of just 1 person before returning home the Affidavit states was inside the house at the time of the crimes is unaccounted for.

Please listen and join Kathy for a review of the case styled as State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger, Case No. 29-220002805. Mr. Kohberger, a doctoral candidate and teaching assistant at Washington State University in Pullman, was arrested on December 30, 2022. He was charged with the brutal quadruple slayings of four University of Idaho students and one count of burglary at an off-campus house located at 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho on the strength of an Affidavit of Probable Cause signed by Detective Brett Payne of the Moscow Police Department. Kathy will give her opinions of this Affidavit, why she believes Mr. Kohberger should have not been arrested based on this document, and her concerns why this case has potentially established a dangerous precedent for all Americans. These are Kathy's opinions which she relates as a podcaster and citizen pursuant to the First Amendment of the United States Constitution.

Commercial Zone 2014, a 30 year project in the making, was comprised of music, words, art and clothing all pulled off completely independently from concept to delivery. The music dropped November 2014 as a downloadable album. This is an outtake from that album. Enjoy and remember, it is always best to "do it yourself".
