Killer who stabbed 4 Idaho students to death still at large​

The killer — or killers — who stabbed four University of Idaho students to death remained at large Tuesday, prompting many students to leave the campus in the idyllic small town despite police assurances that there was no imminent risk to the community.

So many students had left the scenic tree-lined campus in Moscow, Idaho, by Tuesday that university officials said a candlelight vigil scheduled for the next day would instead be held after the Thanksgiving break.

The students, all close friends, were found dead in an off-campus rental home around noon on Sunday, and officials said they likely were killed several hours earlier. Latah County Coroner Cathy Mabbutt told the Spokane, Washington-based television station KXLY that her preliminary investigation showed the students were stabbed to death. There is no indication that substance use was involved in the deaths, Mabbutt said.

The key evidence that linked Bryan Kohberger to the murders of 4 Idaho students

It's still unknown why Kohberger decided to kill those students, or if he was targeting all four of them.

The DNA is what put them on to him. Without it, I'm not sure they'd have a solid lead.

Actually his car is what put them onto him. They didn't have his DNA to "put them on to him" until they matched it to his father as familial.

 

[GrandmaBear]

True but i think the phone and car would have been enough on its own. He didn't just drive by once but went there several times i thought.

Anyway, it wasn't needed in the end due to his guilty plea.

Was that new DNA process approved in Idaho already, because they are still trying to get it approved in NY, LISK case, I know.

Othram went against policy. Not against the law but against policy.

Well, finally feel I caught up finally. Two things i decided to point out. One is Happy Face wants BK in his cell with him. I am quite fed up with these SK get togethers.

The other thing is way cooler. I hope all watched the statement by Kaylee's sister. This was masterful, practiced, perfect. pitch right, tone right. Some expert helped her from what I understood and this was the second person this was done to help.

Every word she said was meant to humilate, anger and hit chords in him and his pride, etc. She was scathing, used a tone that dismissed him as very disappointingly normal he was, shameful. You have to watch to see how masterful this was.

Yeah thats what i said too, plus his phone. I didn't know that afterwards he changed his car reg from a PA reg to a Washington state reg either. PA has no front plate.

The car was caught on a neighbour cam speeding away and almost rolled on a corner. So they had him pretty soon after the murders.
Without the car they would not have known whose trash to search, right?

LE went from East to West to nail him. They checked Codis first, but no match. Then they went to PA for the trash dive and took it straight to CA Othram lab who turned it around in two days as a match.

Bryan Kohberger called his mother less than two hours after he murdered four University of Idaho students, according to an expert who helped prosecutors with the case.

Heather Barnhart led the team tasked with examining Kohberger's phone and hard drive. She spoke with PEOPLE and said Kohberger first reached out to his mom at 6:13 a.m. the morning of Nov. 13, 2022.

When she did not answer, he called his father at 6:14 a.m. Barnhart says. He had his parents saved as "Mother" and "Father" in his phone and would often call his mother first followed immediately after by his father if he did not get an answer.

"And he would go back and forth texting: 'Father, why did mother not respond? Why is she not answering the phone?" Barnhart says.

She did eventually answer, and the two spoke for 36 minutes.

It wasn't long after Kohberger and his mother got off the phone that he called her a second time and they spoke for 54 minutes.

The timing of that call means that Kohberger would have been speaking with his mom while in his car driving back to the crime scene.

Latah County Prosecuting Attorney Bill Thompson said at Kohberger's plea hearing that he spent 10 minutes at the crime scene around 9 a.m., which would be around the time he got off the phone with his mother.

He also spent nine minutes on the phone with his mother at 9 a.m., says Barnhart. The two also sspoke for two minutes at 4:05 p.m. and at 5:53 p.m. had their final conversation, which lasted 96 minutes.

By the end of that day, Kohberger and his mother had spoken on the phone for well over three hours.

Not present on Kohberger's phone were any texts with friends or any person outside his family.

"There was a group chat but it was all benign conversations," Barnhart explains.

Kohberger would mostly speak to his parents, says Barnhart, who adds that Kohberger would start calling his mother as early as 4 a.m. some days.

This information was all gathered from the Samsung Galaxy phone Kohberger owned and had purchased in June, around the same time he moved to Washington from Pennsylvania.

So he never fully cut the purse strings. A bit of arrested development, too.

I wonder if he told his mother what he had done.

ala Brian Laundrie

 

[RoundPeg]

What stood out to me was the demanding nature of his calls. Ask Dad what Mom is doing that supercedes his calls. My daughter and I text all day long. We also know the other may be busy.

So he never fully cut the purse strings. A bit of arrested development, too.

I think you're looking for apron strings. The post I pasted discusses his attachment to his mother, not money.

Yes! Thank you! I knew that didn't look right, but couldn't think of what else it would be called.

And asking dad why mom didn't answer his calls is beyond creepy, too.

I'm sure that made his dad feel good. I know a guy like that but he's only 3 lol.

Ah i see you already said that. Just catching up.

Weird behaviour.

Something tells me that the purse strings were also not cut between him and his mom, too but yes, I did mean apron strings above.

Mother and Father? Who does that? I know of no one. Maybe royalty or some blueblood bent on tradition and formality. Did the girls call the parents this too? I'd like to know the family ways and dynamic as opposed to what is his own weird behavior...

My mom would have a fit if we called her at 4 in the morning unless a true emergency.

All this dependency aside, I guess what matters is what was he telling her for three hours. Did he tell her what he did that day?? I would hardly think so but look at Petito with Laundrie, he had the same sick dependency with his mom and I am pretty sure he told her or told her enoiugh that they lawyered up...

He really may be on the spectrum. It certainly doesn't excuse his criminal behavior, but it would explain his odd demeanor (Asperger's?).
