MOSCOW, ID. – (KGMI.com) Prosecutors are seeking a trial date next summer for the man accused of killing four University of Idaho students.

The Latah County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office has asked a judge to schedule a jury trial for the summer of 2024.

They have specifically asked for dates that avoid when the Moscow High School and area universities are in session.

The high school is located adjacent to the courthouse, according to the filing.

Bryan Kohberger is charged with four counts of murder in connection with the stabbing deaths of Ethan Chapin of Skagit County and three Idaho women at a rental home near the Moscow campus last year.

His defense attorneys had sought to throw out the indictment against Kohberger, but a judge recently rejected their arguments.
