Hello and welcome to our continuing coverage in the case against Brian Koberger.

0:13.9

My name is Tony Bruske. We are about to join the court feed here shortly in Moscow, Idaho, of the State v. Brian Coburger.

0:24.5

We're going to be going into the hearing that is set to take place here in just a few moments.

0:30.9

This hearing is a hearing that is going to be changing the plea.

0:36.3

It is a change of plea hearing from not guilty to guilty

0:40.4

in the trial of Brian Coburger. At least that's what we're expecting. Judge Hippler expected to

0:46.3

rule on that today and expected to accept the plea, but there is no guarantee on that, which is

0:52.3

important to note in a case like this because there has been very,

0:58.2

very strong opposition from the families in this case.

1:03.7

At least some of the families, Steve Gonzalez speaking out very vehemently about this, saying

that this is not at all what he wants, urging people to

1:11.9

contact the judge directly and let them know, let the judge know that this is not in the wishes

1:28.8

but anything is possible. This judge seems to have been a little bit more tight on things than our previous judge.

1:38.3

John, Judge, John, Judge, that's how you say it, from the court in Moscow.

1:46.5

Trial obviously has been moved to Boise for publicity reasons to prevent or at least lower the odds of having a jury that is too influenced by the media coverage of this very, very high profile case that we've been now following for you for roughly three years.

2:08.6

As soon as the court gets into session, we're going to go live to that so you can take a look at what is happening and we will watch the hearing together.

2:17.9

We are live right now, by the way, on Facebook.

2:21.1

We are live on YouTube.

2:22.7

We are live on X.

2:24.1

So I do encourage you to leave your comments on the case and let us know what your thoughts
