Bryan Kohberger, who was convicted of fatally stabbing four University of Idaho students, has recently taken legal measures attempting to overturn his guilty plea. Kohberger has requested a court to disqualify the judge overseeing his case and has petitioned for a change of venue.
These motions were filed by Gregory Rauch, Kohberger’s newly appointed attorney, on Thursday. This legal action followed his conviction of first-degree murder.

Kohberger has maintained his innocence since the conviction, attributing his false confession to misguidance from his defense team.
This is a developing story.
