YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Veteran Idaho defense attorney Edwina Elcox joins NewsNation to break down the pivotal role Judge Steven Hippler will play in Bryan Kohberger’s plea deal. Prosecutors and defense lawyers may have struck an agreement, but it’s not final unless the judge signs off. Kohberger is expected to plead guilty to the 2022 murders of four students and receive life without parole. But some victims’ families oppose the deal, and the judge could reject it. If that happens, would a trial still be possible, after Kohberger already admitted guilt?
