4 University of Idaho students found dead in home outside campus in what police are calling a homicide

The family of accused Idaho murderer Bryan Kohberger is standing by their son in an effort to “promote his presumption of innocence,” they said Sunday in their first public statement.

Kohberger, 28, was arrested Friday in his family home in Pennsylvania for the fatal Nov. 13 stabbings of four University of Idaho students.

His public defender Jason A. LaBar released the statement on behalf of his parents and his sister.

“We have fully cooperated with law enforcement agencies in an attempt to seek the truth and promote his presumption of innocence rather than judge unknown facts and make erroneous assumptions,” the family said.

The Kohbergers said they “will continue to let the legal process unfold and as a family we will love and support our son and brother.”

The family expressed their condolences to the four victims — students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin — saying “there are no words that can adequately express the sadness we feel, and we pray each day for them.”

Accused Idaho college killer Bryan Kohberger said “I love you” to his family as he agreed to be extradited from Pennsylvania to Idaho in his first court hearing.

Handcuffed and wearing a red prison jumpsuit, the man accused of fatally stabbing four University of Idaho college students answered a series of “yes” and “no” questions about his decision to waive his extradition hearing.

“Mr. Kohberger, do you suffer from any mental health diagnosis or take prescribed medication or medication that would impact ability to understand what we are doing here today?” presiding Judge Margherita Worthington asked.

“No,” he answered.

“Do you wish to waive your rights and voluntarily return to the state of Idaho to face prosecution?” the judge asked.

“Yes,” the 28-year-old suspect responded.

The short hearing lasted around 10 minutes and paved the way for him to be transported by authorities to Idaho, where he will be formally charged with the four murders.

The alleged murderer had been led into the court at 3:24 p.m. with his hands cuffed and attached to a prisoner belt.

What I've heard from unverifiable sources, of course, is that his DNA was found in the house. If it was then he is gonna have a really hard time explaining that, since he is not supposed to have ever known the victims, never mind having visited them.

They're exploring possible contact between him and Ms. Goncalves at the restaurant where she worked. Kohberger is an oddball, for sure. Also, in addition to being a party house, it's also thought that those parties may have also been the scene of drug deals, and Kohberger has a history with heroin.

His family is saying he was "beyond vegan" and made his family throw out everything in their kitchen that had ever touched animal products.

Ugh. Wonder what he threatened them with, for that.
If convicted: Crazy axe-murdering extremist vegan? Oh joy.

This kid reminds me of an evil Sheldon Cooper (The Big Bang Theory). He's clearly autistic or something like it. Socially awkward, misses cues, got bullied in school, gets deeply obsessive (like making his parents throw out every kitchen dish/utensil/pan that had ever touched meat), he's clearly brilliant (yet so, so stupid) because you don't get to be a doctoral candidate with schmaltz for brains. I think maybe it all coalesced one day into something he didn't want to control any longer and he gave up and let evil win. I wonder what he might have become if he hadn't gone down Evil Lane? :shifty:
 

Idaho murders suspect Bryan Kohberger SMILES in court after being denied bail - as bombshell case files reveal his DNA was found on knife sheath lying next to victims' bodies​

Surviving roommate Dylan Mortensen saw Kohberger in a black mask

She had heard cries and victim Goncalves say 'there's someone here'

Xana Kernodle ordered a DoorDash which arrived 20 minutes before the killing

Kohberger visited the house at least 12 times before the murder

He turned his phone off on the night of the killings to avoid detection

Mortensen told police the killer had 'bushy eyebrows' - which they noticed in Kohberger once they'd identified him

The most damning piece of evidence is the fact that a DNA sample taken from Kohberger's family's home in Pennsylvania matched DNA found on the snap button enclosure of a knife sheath found at the murder scene.

The sheath is described as 'tan leather' with the USMC (United States Marines Corps) and 'KA-BAR' insignia stitched on its exterior.

A similar sheath can be purchased online for less than $20.

According to Moscow PD Officer Brett Payne - a rookie who joined the force in 2020 - the sheath was found on a single bed next to the stabbed corpses of Maddie Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11603169/Idaho-cops-release-case-files-against-Bryan-Kohberger.html

I doubt he will get vegan food where he's going. And if I were his family, I would have refused his insane requests and told him to get his own goddam place! I don't take very kindly to being told what I can and can't eat in my own home!

Cops are still “puzzled” about why a surviving roommate in the University of Idaho quadruple murder waited eight hours after the slaughter to call police, an Idaho law enforcement source told The Post.
Click to expand...
Dylan Mortensen, 21, opened her bedroom door to see an unknown “figure clad in black clothing and a mask” walking past her, towards the home’s back exit, just after 4 a.m. on Nov. 13, she told investigators.

Yet neither she nor the other spared roommate, Bethany Funke, 21, called police until noon.

The 8-hour gap “has been something that we have puzzled over — we don’t know if it was an issue of intoxication, or of fear,” the lawman said.

According to a newly released police affidavit, in the moments before Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were stabbed to death on the two upper floors of the Moscow house, Mortensen thought she heard Goncalves saying, “There’s someone here,” followed by the sound of crying from Kernodle’s room and a male voice ringing out, “It’s ok, I’m going to help you.”

Early police reports said that Funke and Mortensen, who lived on the bottom floor of the house, recruited friends to the scene before one of them finally called 911 at 11:58 a.m. The pair were quickly ruled out as suspects and have cooperated with the investigation, cops have said.

Despite the baffling delay, cops on the case “are really, really confident about it not being an issue of [Mortensen] being involved,” the source said.

“We look at these things through the lens of rational adults — and when we do that, sometimes things don’t make sense to us — but she’s a 20-year-old girl and we don’t know what she was doing, or if she was scared,” he continued.

Now it's starting to come together on the motive:

Idaho suspect Bryan Kohberger repeatedly messaged victim weeks before murders​

Accused University of Idaho killer Bryan Kohberger slid into one of the girl’s direct messages on Instagram just weeks before the four students were killed in their beds, a report said Tuesday.

An Instagram account that belonged to Kohberger repeatedly sent Instagram messages to one of the college students found dead — but she never returned his advances, an investigator close to the case told PEOPLE.

“He slid into one of the girls’ DMs several times but she didn’t respond,” the anonymous source said. “Basically, it was just him saying, ‘Hey, how are you?’ But he did it again and again.”

The message were reportedly sent in October.

The source did not disclose which of the girls Kohberger messaged. The suspect followed accounts for all three girls on the social media platform.

The messages from Kohberger’s account were sent around the same time that detectives claim the supect was stalking the victims. His cellphone data pinged in the same location as the four students in the weeks before the murders.

Authorities aren’t completely sure why the victim didn’t respond to Kohberger’s repeated messages but said it could be simply because she hadn’t noticed them.

“She may not have seen them, because they went into message requests,” the source said, implying that the victim didn’t follow Kohberger back on Instagram. “We’re still trying to determine how aware the victims were of his existence.”

Accused killer Bryan Kohberger had photos of Idaho victim on his phone​

Accused Idaho killer Bryan Kohberger allegedly had multiple photos of one of the female victims on his phone — suggesting that he had been specifically “paying attention” to her, a source connected to the case said this week.

The images were found on Kohberger’s phone when it was seized by investigators after he was arrested in late December for the Nov. 13 stabbing deaths of Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Ethan Chapin, 20, the source told PEOPLE.

Idaho murder suspect Bryan Kohberger kept ID tied to killings​

University of Idaho murders suspect Bryan Kohberger may have held onto an ID belonging to one of the four killed in the shocking November stabbings, sources claimed this week.

In addition to DNA evidence tying Kohberger to the grisly scene, an unsealed search warrant suggested police found unspecified IDs in the glovebox of the doctoral student’s car, NewsNation reported.

“It’s a big deal. That is a smoking license,” retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer told the network’s Chris Cuomo of the possible discovery, which cannot be confirmed due to a gag order on the case.

“Just like the [knife sheath] was a smoking sheath found next to [Mogen’s body] with his DNA on that clasp, it’s the same thing in this situation. Why would he have an ID related to one of those people from that house?”

Brian Kohberger broke into female student’s home and installed security cameras months before Idaho murders: report

New evidence shows that Bryan Kohberger may have infiltrated a woman’s home months before he allegedly carried out November’s slayings of four University of Idaho students, a news report says.

Kohberger befriended a woman, snuck into her home and moved items around before convincing her to let him install a video security system, a recent report by NBC’s “Dateline” says.

Kohberger and the woman were both students at Washington State University in Pullman, Wash. when he reportedly moved around items in her home to make her feel uneasy and fearful.

When the woman asked Kohberger — unaware that he may have been the perpetrator — Kohberger convinced her to install the video security system.

Authorities say that Kohberger may have been able to hack the system and view the footage remotely, because he knew the woman’s WiFi information.

“I would expect that he orchestrated the whole thing,” said retired FBI profiler Greg Cooper, who spoke on the episode of “Dateline.”

“[Kohberger] orchestrated it so that she would come to him ... it’s another level of having power and control over another person,” Cooper added.

Bryan Kohberger silent in court so judge enters not guilty plea in University of Idaho murder case​

The man accused of killing four University of Idaho students as they slept in their home was met with glares from victims’ emotional families Monday as he stood silent regarding the charges and a not guilty plea was entered on his behalf.

Bryan Kohberger was dressed in an orange jail-issued jumpsuit as he entered the Latah County courtroom in Moscow, Idaho — full of the murdered students’ grieving loved ones — after a grand jury returned a five-count indictment against him.

Kohberger nodded as the judge spoke to him, and briefly glanced at the packed gallery as the arraignment got underway.

He spoke briefly but firmly during the long-awaited hearing, responding “Yes” or “Yes, I do” when prompted by the judge.

When asked how he pleaded to the crimes, Kohberger said nothing and his attorney told the court her client was “standing silent.” A not guilty plea was then entered on his behalf by the judge. A trial date has been set for October 2.
