Judge Hippler's Order Memorializing The Limine Oral Rulings (Part 2)

This order memorializes the oral rulings made by Judge John C. Judge on April 17, 2025, in the Bryan Kohberger case regarding several motions in limine. The court granted the prosecution's request to preclude defense counsel from mentioning or suggesting that third parties—specifically “other men” or unidentified persons—are responsible for the crimes unless the defense can provide a proper evidentiary foundation outside the presence of the jury. This aims to prevent speculation or unsupported accusations from being introduced at trial. Additionally, the judge ruled that the defense may not use characterizations like “rush to judgment” or claims of a biased investigation unless such arguments are supported by specific, admissible evidence.The court also ruled in favor of the prosecution’s request to limit or exclude any irrelevant or inflammatory evidence, including any references to the victims’ personal histories, sexual activity, or alleged drug use, unless it directly relates to the defense's theory of the case and passes legal scrutiny. Similarly, the judge limited the introduction of expert opinions unless those experts have been properly disclosed and vetted. These rulings were intended to ensure a fair trial, maintain focus on relevant issues, and reduce the potential for prejudicial arguments that could mislead or confuse the jury.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:041825+Order+Memorializing+Oral+Rulings+on+Motions+in+Limine.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
