Recent court documents have revealed that DNA from three different individuals was discovered under the fingernails of Madison Mogen, one of the four University of Idaho students tragically murdered in November 2022. This finding suggests that Mogen may have struggled with her assailant, potentially collecting crucial forensic evidence during the attack. However, defense attorneys for the primary suspect, Bryan Kohberger, contend that the DNA tests were inconclusive and have filed motions to exclude this evidence from the upcoming trial..Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student, is accused of fatally stabbing Mogen and her three housemates. Prosecutors have presented additional evidence linking Kohberger to the crime, including DNA found on a knife sheath at the scene, surveillance footage of a vehicle resembling his, and cell phone records placing him near the victims' residence before and after the murders. The defense is challenging the admissibility of much of this evidence, arguing that certain investigative methods and the breadth of search warrants could mislead the jury or infringe upon Kohberger's rightsto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Idaho murders trial rocked by curveball DNA evidence found under victim's fingernails | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In a recent report by The U.S. Sun, legal experts discussed two key pieces of evidence that could influence the upcoming murder trial of Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the 2022 killings of four University of Idaho students. Kohberger's defense team is pushing to introduce DNA evidence pointing to alternative suspects, arguing that DNA from multiple unidentified individuals was found both at the crime scene and on one of the victims. They suggest that someone else could have planted Kohberger's DNA on the knife sheath found in the house. However, Florida-based trial attorney Mark NeJame called the theory a stretch, pointing to the significance of Kohberger's DNA being found on the sheath and questioning the plausibility of such a setup.The defense also referenced DNA mixtures from unidentified males found in blood samples and under the fingernails of victim Madison Mogen. NeJame acknowledged that such evidence could be used to create reasonable doubt, especially the blood samples, which may be relevant in identifying additional individuals present. However, he cast doubt on the fingernail DNA's value, suggesting it could have resulted from casual contact prior to the murders. NeJame emphasized that blood evidence remains the most critical forensic element, potentially acting as “breadcrumbs” to determine the killer's identity. With the trial approaching, these debates over admissible evidence will play a pivotal role in shaping the courtroom battle.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Two pieces of Bryan Kohberger evidence can completely bring down murder trial by casting doubt about guilt, lawyer warns | The US SunBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Hy het skuldig gepleit as deel van ʼn ooreenkoms om die doodstraf vry te spring. Regter Steven Hippler het Kohberger ʼn gesiglose lafaard genoem:
In a case that has captured national attention, Bryan Kohberger is now facing his final hours before sentencing in the brutal University of Idaho murders. As the nation watches closely, emotions are running high on the eve of what many are calling judgment day for the man accused of one of the most disturbing college campus crimes in recent memory. Kohberger, a former criminology PhD student, will soon stand before the court as families of the victims prepare to confront him one last time. The courtroom is expected to be packed, and security heightened, as the public demands answers—and justice. With new developments and possible last-minute statements from both the defense and prosecution, all eyes are on Bryan Kohberger as he awaits his fate. Bryan Kohberger was charged with the vicious murders of four University of Idaho students: Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, who were brutally and senselessly stabbed to death in their off-campus home in November 2022. The chilling details of the crime shocked the nation and sparked a massive investigation that led to Kohberger's arrest. He initially maintained his innocence but ultimately accepted a plea deal, avoiding a death penalty trial. Now, as sentencing approaches, the families and the public still grapple with lingering questions about motive, timeline, and unanswered details. What's next for Bryan Kohberger—and will the sentencing bring true closure to a grieving community?

July 23, 2025. That's the day Bryan Kohberger walks into an Idaho courtroom one last time — not to plead, not to testify, not to explain. Just to be sentenced. No trial. No spectacle. No justice-porn showdown with surprise witnesses or closing arguments. Just a soft-spoken guilty plea and four guaranteed life sentences for the murders of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. But even without the trial, there's plenty to watch for — and even more to say. In this episode, we're breaking down what's actually going to happen in that courtroom — not just the legal bullet points, but the emotional gut punches. Who's going to speak Who's staying home What might Kohberger say (if anything) And will we finally get a damn answer to why he did this Spoiler probably not. We'll walk you through what this “legal funeral” really looks like — from victim impact statements to Kohberger's final moments in a suit before he's carted off for good. We're also looking at the bigger picture the crime scene with no blood trail, the knife sheath left like a breadcrumb, and the guy who allegedly wanted to study serial killers… then allegedly decided to join the ranks himself. It's justice, technically. But not the kind anyone walks away from feeling whole. This is the sentencing day breakdown you won't get from cable news — no fluff, no filler, just a hard look at what's about to go down when the final chapter closes on the Bryan Kohberger courtroom saga.

Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to murdering four University of Idaho student but there were always red flags. This is one of the reasons Bryan Kohberger was denied when he tried to be a part of the Pullman Police Dept. Former Pullman Police Chief joins STS about his interaction with Idaho Killer Bryan Kohberger. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime. In this episode STS Host, Joel Waldman, interviews Former Pullman Police Chief Gary Jenkins about what he noticed about Kohberger--and what happened as the breaking news unfolded. Bryan Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student, pleaded guilty on July 2, 2025, to the November 13, 2022 home‑invasion stabbing murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Facing charges of four counts of first‑degree murder and one count of felony burglary, Kohberger accepted a plea deal that spares him the death penalty in exchange for four consecutive life sentences plus an extra 10 years, with no possibility of appeal. Prosecutors secured a conviction based on DNA evidence from a knife sheath and Q‑tip, along with cell‑tower data and surveillance footage, though the motive remains officially unknown. Now awaiting sentencing on July 23, the controversial plea—welcomed by some families seeking closure but strongly opposed by others—has ignited widespread debate and media coverage.More of STS:Links: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast
The University of Idaho's bucolic campus brought together four students: Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The tight-knit friend group made lasting memories together in their off-campus home on 1122 King Road. However, it was at that very house that the students were tragically murdered. Idaho Statesman Investigative Reporter and FOX News Contributor Kevin Fixler shares his reporting detailing the origins of the Idaho student murders case.

ChatGPT said:Several theories have emerged to explain why Bryan Kohberger might have murdered the four University of Idaho students, but none have been conclusively proven. One of the most prevalent theories is that Kohberger, a criminal justice Ph.D. student, was motivated by a twisted desire to commit the “perfect crime” and study the aftermath firsthand. His academic background and fascination with criminology fueled speculation that he was conducting some kind of real-world experiment in human behavior, violence, and law enforcement response. Some believe he saw the victims—particularly the popular and outgoing personalities of Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen—as symbolic targets for his resentment, projecting his own social isolation and perceived failures onto them.Another theory suggests the killings were more personal than academic. Reports indicate Kohberger may have followed the victims on social media and potentially visited the area multiple times before the murders. This raises the possibility of a growing obsession, perhaps unreciprocated or unnoticed by the victims, that spiraled into rage. The brutality of the crime—four people stabbed in their sleep—suggests a level of emotional intensity that points to more than detached curiosity. Whether it was resentment, rejection, a need for control, or some pathological fixation, the act appears deeply premeditated and full of personal symbolism. Yet with Kohberger offering no clear motive, and the public still left with unanswered questions, speculation continues to fill the vacuum where truth remains tightly sealed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Why did Bryan Kohberger kill?

5 New Gag-Order Lifted Revelations In The Bryan Kohberger Case The silence is over. After nearly two years under a sweeping gag order, shocking new details in the Bryan Kohberger case are finally public—and they paint a disturbing picture of obsession, manipulation, and forensic precision. In this episode, we break down everything that's emerged since the gag order was lifted in July 2025. From Kohberger's eerie job interview with Pullman Police Chief Gary Jenkins, to revelations that his white Hyundai Elantra was almost dismissed as irrelevant due to a technicality—this is the full picture investigators couldn't talk about until now. You'll hear what was really found in his barren Pullman apartment (spoiler: almost nothing), how law enforcement overlooked critical car evidence, and what newly unsealed 911 call transcripts and roommate texts reveal about the horrific night of the murders. We also dive into The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy by James Patterson and Vicky Ward, which suggests Kohberger may have fixated on victim Madison Mogen after being rejected—offering one of the first public theories of motive. Plus: Kaylee Goncalves' parents are finally speaking out, still trying to learn how many times their daughter was stabbed. With Kohberger's sentencing approaching and new voices entering the conversation, the public finally gets access to the brutal reality behind the redacted headlines.

James Patterson's new book, The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy, offers a detailed and emotionally charged narrative of the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The book reconstructs the victims' final hours and the immediate aftermath of the killings, weaving together personal details about their lives, relationships, and the horror of what took place inside their off-campus home. Patterson brings readers inside the crime scene, the families' heartbreak, and the small-town panic that erupted as police struggled to explain the brutality of what had occurred.The second half of the book zeroes in on Bryan Kohberger, the man who ultimately pleaded guilty to the murders. Patterson paints a chilling profile of a socially alienated criminology student who studied the psychology of killers and believed he could execute the perfect crime. The narrative follows how Kohberger's mistakes—especially leaving behind a knife sheath—led to a meticulous investigation that unraveled his plan. Combining investigative detail with fast-paced storytelling, the book challenges readers to weigh the evidence for themselves, positioning them as the jury in a case that still echoes with unanswered questions and shattered lives.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New book on University of Idaho murders sheds light on Bryan Kohberger's potential motive - ABC NewsJames Patterson's new book, The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy, offers a detailed and emotionally charged narrative of the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin.

Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, four University of Idaho students in their 20s, were brutally murdered inside their off-campus home in the early morning hours on November 13, 2022. Two surviving roommates and a heartwrenching 911 call led police to discover the friends stabbed to death inside the three-story house at 1122 King Road. The safe place that once rang with parties, TikTok dances and laughter, was eerily silenced, surrounded by a nationwide media circus and sealed with crime scene tape. The murderer, Bryan Kohberger, a Ph.D student at Washington State University, pled guilty to all counts in exchange for the death penalty to be taken off the table. But still, the families of the victims, and everyone who has been consumed by this case since day one, want to know why Kohberger took these innocent lives.Made With Kindness is a nonprofit organization started in honor of Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, and Xana Kernodle.

Howard Blum Breaks Down Everything He Now Believes About The Bryan Kohberger Case – Full Interview Description: This is the full unfiltered conversation with Howard Blum, NYT bestselling author of When the Night Comes Falling, and it's nothing short of explosive. In this episode, we dive into every angle of the Bryan Kohberger case — from the emotional fractures inside the Kohberger family to the courtroom strategies, from the psychological portrait of the accused to the uncomfortable questions still left unanswered. Blum brings fresh reporting and bold theories: what Bryan may have said to his parents just hours after the killings, how his father may have started putting the pieces together during their cross-country drive, and why the plea deal might not be justice — but a quiet form of surrender by the state of Idaho. He also details Kohberger's possible motivations, his alleged obsession with Madison Mogen, and how Dr. Katherine Ramsland — Kohberger's professor and a leading expert on serial killers — may have been part of the psychological fuel that drove him. You'll also hear insight from Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former head of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, who helps decode the micro-signals in Kohberger's behavior, from his strange post-murder selfie to his failed alibi strategy. This is the definitive breakdown — equal parts legal, emotional, and forensic — of one of the most haunting cases in modern true crime. If you want to understand who Bryan Kohberger is, what he may have planned next, and why this case has left so many still searching for closure — start here.

It's been more than two and a half years since the brutal murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, and Madison Mogen—four University of Idaho students whose lives were tragically cut short in Moscow, Idaho. Months after the killings, Brian Kohberger was named the prime suspect when his DNA was discovered on a knife sheath left at the scene. Despite the evidence, Kohberger maintained his innocence. That was until this week, when he shocked Americans by pleading guilty to all four murders. In today's encore episode, Trey revisits his initial reaction to Kohberger's not guilty plea and explains why he thought Kohberger would pursue a mental health defense. He also explains why depositions aren't used in criminal trials—and even sneaks in a few unforgettable golf stories. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
