Summary
Bryan Kohberger "stood silent" as an Idaho judge asked the accused killer to enter his plea.
When Kohberger chose to not answer, the judge entered not-guilty pleas for Kohberger on all counts. The only time Kohberger did answer was to say yes that he understood the charges against him and his potential punishment.
Prosecutors have 60 days to say whether they will pursue the death penalty. A trial date is scheduled for October 2.
