A judge overseeing the pretrial hearings for Bryan Kohberger, the former criminology grad student accused of killing four University of Idaho students in November 2022, ordered prosecutors and defense attorneys Thursday to preserve records after an apparent leak made its way into a “Dateline NBC” episode last week.

The judge overseeing Bryan Kohberger's upcoming quadruple-murder trial says he wants to identify anyone who may have violated a gag order by leaking information from the investigation to news organizations or anyone else not directly involved with the case.

Prosecutors have said they will seek the death penalty for the quadruple murders. Death by a firing squad is an option in Idaho.
