Katherine White, Stephanie Wilt and Hailey Youngling were all forensic scientists with Idaho State Police Forensic Services who became part of the prosecution’s expert-witness lineup in the Bryan Kohberger case.

She was also involved in examining the knife sheath, including presumptive testing that indicated blood was present on portions of it. Hailey Youngling’s role was more closely connected to crime-scene and latent-print work. She responded with other ISP forensic scientists to Kohberger’s Pullman apartment on December 30, 2022, helped process the residence, verified portions of the forensic work and later participated in collecting Kohberger’s fingerprints, palm prints and other exemplars after he returned to Idaho. Youngling also served as a verifier on latent-print examinations connected to evidence from the King Road house, including prints developed from surfaces inside the residence, and she submitted at least one latent print from the sliding-door area for a database search that returned no identification.
