That's basically what happened. But also, if they throw it out, there's really not much there. I mean, you have to... In many ways, it was a perfect crime, except for the leaving the knife sheath behind. Consider the house was... There was so much blood in the house that it was coming out of the sides of the house. It was coming down the foundation of the building at 1122 King Road.
And yet no blood was ever found on Kohlberger. No blood was found in his car. No blood was found in his apartment. There is no evidence also of Kohlberger having any connection to any of the murder victims. There's no evidence of him talking to any of them, ever being in the house, of him stalking them on the internet. There's no murder weapon. There's no motive even.

So without this DNA evidence, the case against Koberger becomes a lot more problematic.

That is very incriminating, yes. But if she, Ann Taylor, the defense attorney, is trying to get that... the FBI and the police coming into his house. She's trying to get that thrown out. She's claiming it was an unlawful assault without the necessary warrants to arrest him in his house. She's raising everything.

Yes, I mean, they took apart the break gears, they were looking all over for any blood, no blood in his student apartment at Washington State University, nowhere. It was a perfect crime in many ways, except for leaving behind the knife sheath.

Here's what the defense is going to say, and I think it's a fairly convincing argument, especially in a death penalty case. You have a white Hyundai Elantra by the house, but you have no proof that that's Koberger's car. You never see the license plate on any of the videos. You never see the man behind the wheel in any of those videos. They're all obscured.

So there are lots of white Hyundai Elantras around. they can't make that connection directly. Then when you have the cell phone tower triangulation that puts him in the neighborhood of the murder house, well, it's a 10-mile radius. In a town like Moscow, 10 miles takes up a lot of territory, a lot of neighborhoods.

You never have any proof that he ever parked in front of the house, that he was ever his car ever came to a halt in front of the house. You can speculate, but you can't prove it. Are these inferences enough to condemn a man to death? It might be hard for a jury.
