Sick & Twisted: New Details Emerge In Bryan Kohberger Murder Case

Bryan Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology Ph.D. student and the suspect in the recent string of murders in Idaho, was reportedly found with pictures of one of the victims on his phone when he was arrested by police more than a month and a half after the attacks.

Kohberger's arrest on December 30, at his parent's house in the Pocono Mountains, followed intense national media coverage and a surge of online discussion on platforms such as Facebook and Reddit.

According to an unnamed source cited by People, police allegedly found multiple pictures of one of the four victims on Kohberger's phone. The victims, aged between 20 and 21, were identified as Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The source did not specify whether the photos were taken by Kohberger or if the pictures were sourced from social media.

The source added that Kohberger had more than one picture of the victim on his phone and appeared to have been paying attention to her. In court filings, police had alleged that Kohberger had stalked the King Road home where the murders occurred at least a dozen times before the late-night stabbings and had returned to the scene after the killings.

The rental home, located close to the University of Idaho campus, was also known as a popular party venue among students, with dozens of people coming and going on weekends. Kohberger was attending Washington State University, located roughly seven miles away.

Joseph Giacalone, a retired NYPD sergeant, and John Jay College of Criminal Justice professor, speculated that Kohberger's lawyer could argue that his client is simply a true crime enthusiast. Giacalone also noted that the pictures would be insignificant unless prosecutors could demonstrate when the pictures were downloaded.

The case is currently subject to a gag order, which media organizations and Goncalves' family attorney are challenging. A police spokesperson in Moscow, Idaho, declined to comment due to the order.

Kohberger remains in custody without bail at the Latah County Jail in Moscow and is due to appear in court on June 26. He faces four counts of first-degree murder and a charge of felony burglary and could potentially face the death penalty if convicted.
