About the Idaho student murders

Ad

In the early hours of November 13, 2022, four young students of the University of Idaho were brutally stabbed to death. The incident occurred in a rented off-campus house in Moscow, where the students lived, with two more tenants.

The students, Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, were killed sometime between 4 am and 4:25 am local time, according to court documents. The brutal murders shocked the entire nation and were followed by a nationwide investigation involving over 130 members of law enforcement from the Moscow Police Department, the Idaho State Police, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

The accused, Bryan Kohberger, was arrested on December 30, 2022, at his parents' house in Monroe County, Pennsylvania. Kohberger was previously employed at Washington State University in Pullman as a PhD student and a teaching assistant. However, he was terminated on December 19, 2022, based on his performance and behaviour, which had been a matter of concern for the faculty members for months.

As per NBC News, Kohberger's trial is scheduled to start in August 2025 and end in November. The judge, Steven Hippler, ruled last month that the accused can face the death penalty if found guilty. The ruling came against Kohberger's defence attorney's request to strike out capital punishment as an option, citing Kohberger's diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder.
