@abc7chicago: Bryan Kohberger's defense team is making an attempt to have the death penalty taken off the table. Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student at nearby Washington State University, has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary, in connection with the fatal stabbing of four University of Idaho students -- Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Ethan Chapin, 20. They were killed in an off-campus house in the early hours of Nov. 13, 2022.

How can he have an impartial jury anywhere? This is national news…regardless, I wish they’d hurry and get him to trial - this has dragged on and on.

Firing squad is merciful compared to what he did to them.

Was it not cruel and unusual for him to brutally murder 4 people while they were sleeping?? A firing squad isn’t even enough imo. Thats getting it easy.

So he can take the life of four students brutally but yet the death penalties not appropriate for him? Got it.

How are they even fighting for this? He hasn’t even made it to trial yet. It’s a waste of time. It’s been two years, on already.

He stabbed them to death. For some of them or all of them they suffered, died slowly, scared. For him to feel that fear is justice. Even with a firing squad his death would be faster.

He lost all his rights with the first stab. Firing squad is the least of what this man should get.

Firing squad is what he deserves. Start from his ankles up though. The Idaho 4 and their families deserve justice.

Well he wouldn’t have to worry about the firing squad if he hadn’t killed those four beautiful people. I say if the death penalty was ever warranted than this is it.

Uhh, no. If he is found guilty of killing 5 ppl in cold blood he should get the death penalty. End of story.

kaitlyn :
If they truly believe he’s innocent then they shouldn’t even care what he possibly faces if convicted, because they trust themselves he won’t be found guilty…this doesn’t make sense for them
