Law enforcement released the 911 recording after prosecutors unsealed a court document containing a transcript of the call.
Kohberger’s filing is in response to the argument made by his attorneys that the jury should not be allowed to hear the 911 call. They claim that the call was improperly presented as evidence and argue that many statements in the recording are hearsay.
Judge John Judge had previously ruled that the statements in question were admissible under the present sense impression and excited utterance exceptions. However, the defense team is revisiting this argument before Ada County Judge Steven Hippler.
During the 911 call, the roommates can be heard sounding distressed as they report that someone is unresponsive. Kohberger’s defense maintains their stance that he is being wrongly accused as they persist in fighting for his acquittal.
