Clad in an orange jumpsuit and handcuffs, Brian Kauberger was whisked by Sheriff's deputies in the early morning hour Sunday to a waiting plane. Arriving 90 minutes later in Boise, Idaho, at this county jail, inside one of those SUVs, some 300 miles away from the site of the brutal murders of Madison Mogan, Kaylee Gonsalvis, Xana Kernotal, and Ethan Chapin, the University of Idaho students found fatally stabbed in their off-campus home. Kauberger, charged with the grizzly crime terms almost two years ago, for which the judge pleaded not guilty on his behalf, receiving a new booking photo and a new venue in Boisey.

Eventually, the most successful decision I've ever had to make.

The judge cite concerns about a prejudiced jury pool after years of heavy media coverage in a tight-knit and insulated community. Also a lack of resources to stage a trial of this magnitude. Kaylee Gonsalves' parents telling NBC News they'll go wherever the trial takes place and are at least pleased that a new judge now assumes control.

And Sam trial. Sam joins us now. Sam, what's next in terms of court proceedings?

Sure, Lester. The next scheduled hearing is November the seventh. That is the defense's motion to take the death penalty off the table. Then June second is the scheduled start of the murder trial. But because there's a new judge in this case, that is all within his discretion. Lester.
