Bryan Kohberger is accused of searching for images of female students on his cellphone, including some who were close friends with three of the University of Idaho students who were slain.
Kohberger faces charges of first-degree murder in the deaths of University of Idaho students Xana Kernodle, 20, Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, and Ethan Chapin, 20. The former Washington State University pupil is also charged with a single felony count of burglary.
“Dateline” on NBC acquired Kohberger’s phone browsing history, which reveals he allegedly looked for multiple images of female students from Washington State University and the University of Idaho.
Many of the pictures Kohberger searched for showed females in bathing suits. According to the report, some of the females’ accounts were either followers or close friends with Kernodle, Mogen and Goncalves.
