A digital forensics expert, Sy Ray, has stated that Bryan Kohberger should receive a new trial and face the death penalty, claiming that investigators overlooked significant evidence against him. Kohberger, who pleaded guilty to the murders of four University of Idaho students, is currently serving four consecutive life sentences without parole. Ray, who was previously hired as an expert witness for Kohberger's defense, expressed confidence that Kohberger would be convicted if the new evidence is presented. He asserted that Kohberger's smartphone data indicates he was in close proximity to the victims' home before the murders, contradicting his earlier expert report which found no such association. Ray's recent statements have raised questions among legal experts due to the discrepancies with his previous findings. Kohberger has filed a petition for post-conviction relief, claiming ineffective counsel from his defense team. Ray has suggested that the investigation should be reopened to examine the evidence he believes was missed.
