PICTURED: New Mugshot of Brian Kohberger Released After Murder Trial Moved to Boise

Law enforcement released the 911 recording after prosecutors unsealed a court document containing a transcript of the call.

The filing responds to Kohberger’s argument that the jury should not hear the 911 call. His attorneys argue that the call was improperly submitted as evidence, claiming many statements in the recording are hearsay.

Judge John Judge previously ruled that the statements in question fall under the present sense impression and excited utterance exceptions. However, defense attorneys are raising the argument again before Ada County Judge Steven Hippler.

In the call, the roommates sound distressed as they report that someone is not waking up. Meanwhile, Kohberger’s attorneys claim he was framed as they continue to fight for his acquittal.
