Brian Kohberger, a PhD student in Criminal Justice at Washington State University, was arrested in the heinous murders of four University of Idaho students. Three young women and one male were brutally stabbed in their sleep at their residence in late November.
When he was taken into custody, Kohberger asked law enforcement officers if anyone else had been arrested, leading one to believe more than one person was involved.
WSU is located approximately seven miles from U of Idaho campus.
If they can’t find the murder weapon or link DNA evidence to him, it would be hard cheese to find him guilty. Also, the defense will pursue a change of venue.
He had the opportunity. Not sure what the motive was at this point in the investigation other than him being a sociopath
The murder weapon was probably disposed somewhere in the 2000+ miles between Pullman and his home in Pennsylvania.
He’s innocent until proven guilty, but if he’s found guilty based only on circumstantial evidence, then my guess he’ll get life in prison.
Idaho does have capital punishment laws with specific criteria for enacting the lethal punishment.
Yes they supposedly found DNA evidence on all the victims and used a DNA ancestry database to narrow it down to him. He also owned a white Elantra and lived 8 miles away. It will be interesting to see the motive.
when I lived with roommates in college and dental school, I did. I don’t do that now with my family but I did when I live in different apartments. I lived in Cullen Oaks (on campus apartment) when at UH and the multiroom units (2 bedsroom and 4 bedrooms) shared a living area and Kitchen but each bedroom had its own lock.
It will be interesting to see the guys motive. Was he trying to get revenge? Was he a psychopath trying to see if he could plan and able to get away with it?
