Accused of horrific murders: captured on video

Police video shows the man who was charged seven weeks later with the bloody student murders that shocked the United States.

Police video shows Brian Kohberger, 28, the man police believe was behind four horrific murders in Idaho last November, speaking to a female police officer at a traffic stop just a month before the murders took place.

He questions the officer, but he is very polite, and apologetic when he asks about traffic laws in Washington. He himself comes from Pennsylvania, and there aren’t always the same kind of laws for traffic violations.

– I apologize if I raise a lot of questions about the legislation. He told the policewoman, I didn’t try to argue with you.

Kohberger was arrested in December and charged with first degree murder after four students were found murdered in a home in the small town of Moscow, Idaho.

The case was a great mystery for several weeks prior to the arrest, which surprised many who followed the case.

Kohberger studied at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, a 15-minute drive from Moscow in the neighboring country. He had no prior convictions.

The 28-year-old, who was a doctoral law student, was arrested in his home state of Pennsylvania on December 30, 2022, nearly six weeks after the bloody bodies of Kylie Goncalves (21) and Madison Mughen (21) were found. and Xana Kernodle (20) and Ethan Chapin (20). The four were stabbed to death in a residence off the campus of the University of Idaho where the four were students.

The video is significant because it is part of the investigative foundation that led to Kohberger’s arrest seven weeks after the murders, according to the police CNN.

Kohberger drives a white Hyundai Elantra in the video which is the same model and color of the car that was captured by local surveillance footage in the area around the murder scene when the murders took place.

So the police authorities were looking for this very car and the officers at Washington State University, thus, tracked down Kohberger, who was registered with a white Elantra.

The case is also based on witness descriptions from one of the other two in the student residence. A roommate described an athletic but not too muscular person, roughly. He is 175-177 cm tall, with “thick eyebrows”.

The witness said she heard crying in the house on the morning of the murder. She is said to have heard a man’s voice say, “It’s okay, I’ll help you.” Then she saw a man in dark clothes with a mask over his mouth and nose, walking towards her.

In addition, phone records show that the accused was near the victims’ home several times in the months leading up to the murders. The accused’s phone was used no less than a dozen times near the house.

His behavior towards women is said to have also caused concern.

According to CNN, DNA was also supposed to be found on a knife scabbard that was at the murder scene. Police are said to have compared the DNA profile with DNA found in trash that was taken from Kohberger’s home in Pennsylvania.

“At least 99.9998 percent of the male population would be excluded from the possibility of being the biological father of the suspect,” the report reads. Legal documents.
