ToggleBryan Kohberger’s criminal record
Kohberger is arrested for being the prime suspect behind the gruesome murder of four University of Idaho students in the United States of America.
Ethan Chapin, 20, of Conway, Washington; Kaylee Goncalves, 21, of Rathdrum, Idaho; Xana Kernodle, 20, of Avondale, Arizona, and Madison Mogen, 21, of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, were the victims murdered by Mr. Kohberger.
They were all students at the University of Idaho. Goncalves and Mogen were both seniors, Kernodle was a junior and Chapin was a freshman.
The unfortunate event reportedly occurred on November 13, 2022, when the four students were stabbed in their sleep while sleeping in a three-story off-campus rental house in Moscow, Idaho.
Several University of Idaho students lived in an off-campus rental house in Moscow, Idaho, a small town with a small university. There were two bedrooms on each floor of the three-story house. Until the latest incident, there had not been a murder in the city since 2015.
On November 13, 2022, between 3:00 and 4:00 a.m., four University of Idaho students were fatally stabbed in a rental home next to the school where three of them lived.
Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves and Xana Kernodle were the three female victims who lived in the home; Ethan Chapin was Kernodle’s friend who stayed the night of the attacks.
They slept unharmed during the attacks in the same apartment as the two other roommates. On the evening of November 12, between 8 and 9 p.m., Chapin and Kernodle, two of the four victims, attended a party on the campus of the neighboring Sigma Chi fraternity. They returned home at 1:45 a.m.
The other two victims that evening were best friends Mogen and Goncalves, who had gone to a sports bar in town at 10 p.m. and left at 1:30 a.m.
Mogen and Goncalves were captured talking and smiling during a live Twitch stream from Grub Truck, a food truck located four blocks from Friendship Square (Main Street and Fourth Street), at 1:41 a.m. Ten minutes later, they received their food and then returned home in what police initially thought was an Uber ride, a journey of about a mile.
By 1:56 a.m., the four students had returned home. Between 2:26 a.m. and 2:52 a.m., Goncalves had seven incomplete phone conversations with her ex-boyfriend, a classmate.
From 2:44 a.m. to 2:52 a.m., Mogen contacted the friend three times with the same results. After reviewing those calls, police concluded they did not believe he was responsible for the crime.
The two surviving roommates were in their bedroom on the first floor of the house at the time of the murders. They returned home around one in the morning. They were neither attacked nor captured and did not wake up until later in the morning.
The four victims were stabbed to death on the second and third floors of the house where they were sleeping. The victims were neither bound nor gagged and the nearby walls were covered in blood.
It wasn’t until 11:58 a.m., several hours after the early morning murders, that someone called 911. That’s when a call for help for an “unconscious” person was made. from the apartment via the cell phone of one of the remaining students there.
When police arrived, the door to the home was open, nothing appeared to have been stolen, and there were no visible signs of forced entry or property damage in the home. When police arrived, the victims’ two surviving roommates and some acquaintances were also there.
The surviving roommates assumed that one of the victims on the second floor was in a coma and had not woken up, so they invited friends into the house.
At 12 p.m., all four victims were pronounced dead. Officers discovered Goncalves’ dog at the residence that night; It was then handed over to what police described as the “responsible party.” Goncalves shared this dog with her ex-boyfriend.
On December 30, an FBI SWAT team and Pennsylvania State Police arrested Kohberger at his parents’ home in Chestnuthill Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania.
He was held without bail at the Monroe County Correctional Center in Stroudsburg after being arrested on four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary. A public attorney has also been appointed to represent him. He will appear in court again on January 3, 2023.
