Man Accused Of K*lling 4 Idaho Students Agrees To Plea Deal, Victim’s Family Speaks Out: ‘This Is How It Concludes?’

Bryan Kohberger, the man accused of m*rdering four University Of Idaho students in 2022, has agreed to plead guilty to all charges in exchange for life in prison.

According to a letter sent to victims’ families, Kohberger will receive four consecutive life sentences for the m*rders of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, along with the maximum 10-year sentence for burglary. The deal spares him the de@th penalty.

However, the Goncalves family is speaking out. “They [prosecutors] vaguely mentioned a possible plea on Friday, without seeking our input, and presented the plea on Sunday,” they said in a statement. “Latah County should be ashamed of its Prosecutor’s Office… We weren’t even called about the plea; we received an email with a letter attached.”

They continued, “After more than two years, this is how it concludes with a secretive deal and a hurried effort to close the case without any input from the victims’ families on the plea’s details. Our family is frustrated right now, and that will subside, and we will come together as always and deal with the reality that we face moving forward.”

Prosecutors expect sentencing to take place later this month.
