On a quiet November night in 2022, the college town of Moscow, Idaho was shattered by an act of unimaginable violence. Four University of Idaho students, Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, were found brutally stabbed to death in their off-campus home in the early morning hours. The shocking crime stunned the community and quickly gripped the nation.
This week on Chillworthy, we break down the chilling case of Bryan Christopher Kohberger, a criminology PhD student at Washington State University who would later be arrested and charged in the quadruple homicide. From the initial discovery of the crime scene and the fear that followed, to the months-long investigation that led authorities from Idaho to Pennsylvania, we trace the steps that brought investigators to their suspect.
We unpack the surveillance footage, DNA evidence, and cellphone data prosecutors say connect Kohberger to the murders, along with the intense public scrutiny and media attention surrounding the case. As the legal process unfolds, questions about motive, intent, and what truly happened inside the King Road house continue to haunt the victims’ families and the public.
Join us as we examine the facts, the theories, and the unanswered questions behind one of the most chilling and closely watched true crime cases of the modern era.
