Kohberger’s legal team was trying to have the death penalty ruled out … citing his recent autism diagnosis … but the judge ruled against him.
Prosecutors have indicated they intend to seek the death penalty if Kohberger is convicted in his criminal trial, which currently has an August start date.
Kohberger is charged with murder for the brutal stabbing deaths of college students Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves. The students were killed Nov. 13, 2022, inside their off-campus home, which has since been demolished.
A manhunt ensued and Kohberger was arrested on the other side of the country in Pennsylvania. He’s already entered a not guilty plea.
