Among the never-ending questions surrounding the November 2022 murders of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madson "Maddie" Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin — was did they know their killer?
In an affidavit outlining the case, investigators say DNA, cellphone records and surveillance camera evidence link the accused murderer, Bryan Kohberger, to the crime. But his defense attorneys say in a court filing that "there is no connection between Mr. Kohberger and the victims."
Criminologist and CBS News consultant Bryanna Fox adds that "the defense is claiming that the defendant, Bryan Kohberger, and the victims have absolutely no connection. There's no motive, there's no reason for this crime to take place. So, essentially, it's raising additional doubt in jurors' minds."
