Summary
Could the strongest evidence against Bryan Kohberger be the very thing his defense is desperately trying to make disappear? The prosecution is putting a heavy focus on DNA evidence—specifically, the alleged discovery of Kohberger’s DNA on the knife sheath found at the crime scene. And let’s be real, it’s a little hard to explain how your DNA ends up on an item that just so happens to be next to four brutally murdered college students unless you were, you know, there. But Ann Taylor, his defense attorney, is going all in—challenging the validity of the evidence, calling the investigative process unconstitutional, and doing everything she can to cast doubt.
The big question is: will any of it stick? Because if the judge rules against her, what’s left for the defense? Could Kohberger’s best bet be to strike a deal to save his own life? And if so, would prosecutors even consider it, or is this one of those cases where justice demands nothing less than the ultimate punishment?

| 1:29.3 | that the stabbings occurred are certainly significant. |
| 1:33.1 | But I think really what they're hanging their hat on in terms of the prosecution is what |
| 1:37.2 | they believe to be, Coburger's DNA on the knife sheath that was left at the crime scene. |
| 1:42.8 | And that is just so hard to explain for any defense. |
| 1:46.6 | How are they going to tell a jury that, yes, his biological material was there, but he wasn't. |
