Trial Date Delay: The trial is scheduled for early 2025, nearly three years after the crime, highlighting the slow pace of justice. Preparation Time: Motta explains the extensive time needed to prepare for a death penalty case, including going through massive amounts of evidence, finding and scheduling expert witnesses, and the defense's duty to thoroughly investigate claims. Motion Work: The discussion acknowledges the numerous motions that will be filed, which also contribute to delays. Comparison to Other Cases: A comparison is made with the Delphi case, where a motion for a 70-day trial was filed, illustrating the complexity and time demands of major legal cases. Alibi Witness Speculation: There's speculation about the strength of Kohberger's alibi witness and whether a solid alibi would have already been presented if it existed.
