Bryan Kohberger, a former FD criminology student who confessed to the brutal murders of four University of Idaho 2022 students, is scheduled to convict on Wednesday 23 July in Boise, Idaho. It is expected that hearing, starting with 9:00, will last all day and could stretch into Thursday to allow time to declare the impact on the victim.
Kohberger, 30, admitted at the beginning of this month the killing of Madison Mogen, 21; Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20; and Ethan Chapin, 20. In return for his guilt and giving up the rights to appeal, prosecutors abandoned the death penalty and instead recommended four consecutive life punishment without conditional release.
The questions still remain
While the sentence is largely lost in the end, hearing offers families of victims and a surviving roommate platform that expresses their pain.
However, many families remain a lack of answers. Kohberger never explained his motive and investigators did not discuss why he focused on King Road rental in Moscow in Idaho, or why two survivors were spared.
Silent accused?
According to Idah, Kohberger will have the final opportunity to address the court before the conviction – a moment that the defendants often use to express regret. However, it remains unclear whether he intends to speak.
Even President Donald Trump weighed this week this week and wrote on Truth Social: “I hope the judge will at least explain why he made these terrible murders.”
Evidence: DNA, cellular data and supervision
The prosecutors described in detail the methodological investigation, which led to the arrest of Kohberger in Pennsylvania weeks after killing. The bottom of the knife found at the crime scene coincided with the genetic material obtained from the basket of the Kohberger family. His Amazon account revealed the purchase of a military knife eight months before the crime.
Investigators also quoted records of mobile phones and tracking shots showing the White Hyundai Elantra – corresponding to Kohberger’s car – repeatedly passing home victims at night during the attack. Mobile phones also placed it in the neighborhood several times before November 13, 2022.
No evidence of sexual assault
The prosecutor of the Latah Bill Thompson Region has ruled out certain motifs during the meeting on July 2. According to him, there is no hint of sexual component or sexual assault in these crimes.
Despite this, many details remain shrouded in mystery due to sealed court documents and an extensive order of a gagging imposed on the preservation of Kohberger’s right to a fair trial.
Families divided into an agreement on action
Some families were reportedly angry with a lack of consultations before the action on the action.
