WALLACE, Idaho — The man accused of killing a family of four in Kellogg was back in court Wednesday afternoon arguing that he was not read his Miranda rights until after he admitted to the killings.
At the Shoshone County Courthouse, Kaylor’s defense team filed a motion to suppress evidence that included his confession. His attorney claims the information he told authorities was non-voluntary and that he was interrogated without his rights properly read.
Two detective took the stand and said that they were trying to build a rapport with Kaylor, but acknowledged that they did not read him his rights for about two hours after he confessed.
The prosecution made the case that there was only one officer at the scene at the time. When Kaylor spoke to that officer, his Miranda rights were not read until backup arrived on scene.
Body camera video has been submitted for evidence and was referenced in the hearing. The judge at this time has not made a decision on this motion.
