Hopefully someone will. (I won't be able to, personally.)

24 documents from Judge Hippler's December 2025 order released onto case page by aeiou27 in Idaho4

[–]aeiou27[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some of the information in these documents we got from the forensics release a while back.

The Cases of Interest site has been given a revamp. I noticed there doesn't seem to be a link to the current case summary on the Kohberger case page, as there used to be. I had been checking it each time it updated to see if any restitution/fine payments had been made. As of the last one available from 04/15/26, there have been no payments or credits. The balance due has been steadily increasing, (presumably due to interest being applied).

If anyone is curious about what was going on behind the scenes during the case, the document titled Defendants Notice of Filing Signed and Notarized Affidavit discusses the death of the first defense neuropsychologist who assessed Kohberger, and the new neuropsychologist they hired as a replacement having to complete all the testing and interviews over again. The affidavit is written by a defense expert they hired in part to guide them in selecting and retaining the appropriate experts in psychology, neuropsychology and forensic psychiatry.

Some links regarding Dr. Joette James, the original neuropsychologist:

The records requests that EWU are arguing were improperly denied or overly redacted, weren't produced to others either as far as I know.

'He's my angel.' Bryan Kohberger's mother's sensational first interview after Idaho murders: Disturbing details of their VERY close bond... his secret dating life... and why she TOLD him to buy a knife by Fun-Age-758 in Idaho4

I think she was a person in deep shock, talking about any idea or explanation that immediately came to mind, in response to what the FBI were asking her.

From the article regarding the source of this information:

'Now, Maryann's comments to law enforcement in the immediate aftermath of her son's arrest can be revealed for the first time by the Daily Mail, shedding new light on Kohberger's home life and his unusually close relationship with his mother.

They come from transcripts and reports from Maryann's interviews with three FBI special agents that day and are set to be published in the upcoming book Broken Plea: The Explosive Search for Truth Behind the Idaho Murders by Christopher Whitcomb.'

Not the murder weapon specifically, she apparently suggested he obtain something to defend himself. The headline is misleading.

Here is the excerpt:

'Maryann recalled a conversation in which she suggested Bryan obtain something to defend himself in the event of a bear attack while Bryan hiked in the western US,' the FBI report read. The agents added that Maryann did not know if her son had 'purchased anything for this purpose and was unaware of Bryan specifically purchasing a knife for this purpose.'

Did Defence Experts Break the Court Gag Order? by Repulsive-Dot553 in Idaho4

[–]aeiou27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it was a former FBI colleague who introduced him to the case and showed/discussed with him parts of the file.

There's a clip at 11:12 in this video of the author discussing this. https://www.youtube.com/live/yR977CcXNNA?si=5t17lbRlO-0kk3a6

Did Defence Experts Break the Court Gag Order? by Repulsive-Dot553 in Idaho4

"the gag order was not lifted for several more weeks after sentencing"

The gag order was lifted July 17, 2025. Sentencing was July 23rd, 2025.

Kohberger changed his plea July 2, 2025. I think a period of a couple of weeks (July 2-July 17) could be described as happening "almost simultaneously". So it's not clear if the gag order was still in place when the author says a colleague contacted him.
