Bryan Kohberger's defense team had planned to argue there were two murderers in the University of Idaho slayings. As you know, the convicted murderer has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. He was able to do this by agreeing to a plea deal to avoid the death penalty, which also avoided a trial ever happening for the 2022 murders. Now, in newly unsealed court docs, we're getting a peek at how his defense team was getting ready to argue his side. According to the court filings, obtained by People, the 31-year-old's defense criminologist Dr. Brent Turvey made the claim that "at least two suspects were involved in this attack". But what would make him argue this? Well, we previously reported on the horrific details surrounding the stabbings of the Idaho Four - but the murders of Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin come into play here. As you'll recall, Ethan was stabbed on the bed, reportedly while he was asleep, while Xana took a particularly brutal attack while she bravely fought back. This is where Dr. Turvey says it's "not reasonable" to suggest Ethan remained asleep in bed amid the chaos of Xana being attacked and fighting back. From that, he concluded: "This evidence and context begin to suggest the existence of a second attacker." He also argued that it looked like Xana and Ethan had been stabbed at the same time, which was "inconsistent with the State's theory that these crimes were committed solely by one individual." Prosecutors argued back, per the filings: "One assailant could contain two people in close proximity to each other, especially if the assailant is armed." To further his argument, Dr. Turvey said that per autopsy records, Kaylee Goncalves' injuries were sustained through "multiple types of lethal force" - but prosecutors hit back and said that it was definitely possible for one attacker "to use multiple types of lethal force".

He claimed it looked like someone had tried to clean up the crime scene a bit because there were traces of blood on the walls mixed with an unknown substance that diluted it. He also claimed the "absence of bloody" footprints at the crime scene pointed toward this theory: "The precautionary acts in this case include the execution of living witnesses; the clean-up of bloody hands, feet / foot-ware and clothing before leaving; and the disposal of said clothing along with the weapons used." He said it would be almost impossible for one person to do all this with the claims that Bryan was only in the home for about 15 minutes. The prosecution hit back hard, though, saying: "Washing or wiping hands takes little time especially if preparations for cleaning are made beforehand. Removal of protective clothing and shoe coverings takes seconds." One final argument from Dr. Turvey was questioning why there wasn't blood in Bryan's vehicle. He said the car had been stripped "down to the metal" with no traces of blood inside. Prosecutors said there could be a "myriad of reasons blood was not transferred to or detected" in the car. Some interesting stuff. What do you think about these arguments on both sides? Let us know your opinions (below).
