💨 Abstract

Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to killing four University of Idaho students in 2022 to avoid the death penalty. Prosecutor Bill Thompson detailed evidence, including DNA from a Q-tip found in Kohberger's parents' trash and surveillance footage placing him near the crime scene. Kohberger's meticulous efforts to cover his tracks and the lack of a clear motive remain notable. The families of the victims are divided over the plea deal, with some supporting it and others opposing it.
