Kohberger Accepts Plea Deal in Idaho Murder Case
Bryan Kohberger, the former graduate student accused of killing four University of Idaho students in November 2022, has agreed to plead guilty to all charges as part of a plea deal to avoid the death penalty. Under the agreement, Kohberger will receive four consecutive life sentences for murder and the maximum sentence for burglary, waiving his right to appeal. The victims—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin—were killed in their off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho, shaking the college town. The Goncalves family has criticized the plea deal, calling it a failure of justice. Kohberger’s previously scheduled August trial is expected to be replaced by a sentencing hearing in late July, pending judicial approval. Investigators connected Kohberger to the crime with DNA evidence from a knife sheath and arrested him in Pennsylvania after a nationwide search.
