A month before the scheduled start of his murder trial for the 2022 killings of four Idaho college students in their off-campus home, defendant Bryan Kohberger admitted his guilt and entered a plea deal that removes the possibility of the death penalty.
At Wednesday morning’s hearing before state district Judge Steven Hippler in Boise, Idaho, Kohberger pleaded guilty to all five counts in the indictment.
Kohberger, a 30-year-old former PhD student of criminology, was charged with four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary in Latah County, Idaho, where the gruesome discovery in a Moscow home first captured national attention.
