At a pretrial hearing on May 15, 2025, Judge Steven Hippler expressed serious concern over a potential violation of the court's gag order in the Bryan Kohberger case. The issue arose following the May 9 airing of an NBC "Dateline" episode that disclosed previously unreleased details about Kohberger's internet search history and cell phone data. Judge Hippler indicated that the leak likely originated from individuals associated with law enforcement or the prosecution team, emphasizing that such breaches could compromise the fairness of the upcoming trial by making it more challenging to seat an impartial jury and potentially increasing costs and delays . In response, Judge Hippler ordered both the prosecution and defense to submit lists of all individuals who had access to the confidential information, including staff, law enforcement officers, and consultants. He also mandated that everyone involved in the case preserve all communications with journalists or outsiders regarding the investigation. Furthermore, the judge expressed his willingness to appoint a special prosecutor to identify the source of the leak, underscoring the imperative to uphold the integrity of the judicial process . to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14718281/bryan-kohberger-dateline-leak-jury-violation.html" target="_blank">Kohberger trial thrown into jeopardy as judge cites major violation that could prevent an impartial jury | Daily Mail Online</a> Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support?utm_source=rss&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support</a>.
