Legal Update: Court Rules on Social Media Evidence in Koffa Case

Monrovia, Liberia

Thursday, June 12, 2025

In a significant development today, lawyers representing Representative Koffa and several co-defendants filed a motion seeking to exclude social media evidence submitted by the prosecution in an ongoing case. However, their efforts were met with disappointment as the presiding judge denied the motion, affirming the admissibility of the evidence in court.

The prosecution had cited Criminal Procedure Law section 25.3b to support their argument that the recordings and text messages should be considered valid evidence. With the judge's ruling, these materials can now be utilized in the case, raising the stakes for the defense.

The Monrovia City Court is set to deliver a crucial ruling tomorrow, which will determine the future of the case. A decision in favor of the prosecution could allow the case to proceed, while a dismissal could bring the proceedings to an abrupt end.

This marks a challenging moment for the defense team, as they faced a setback with the denial of their initial motion aimed at dismissing the prosecution's social media evidence. Legal experts are closely monitoring the situation, as the outcome could have significant implications for the case and its participants.

As the court prepares for tomorrow's ruling, all eyes will be on the Monrovia City Court, where the future of this high-profile case hangs in the balance.
