BRYAN Kohberger disclosed the details of his heinous act of killing four University of Idaho students during a dramatic hearing on Wednesday, concluding a mystery that had persisted for years.

The unemotional perpetrator detailed the exact sequence of events using brief yes and no responses to the prosecution in the tense Idaho courtroom, while grieving family members wept.

Kohberger’s intentions were disclosed on Monday when his defense lawyers submitted documents indicating his intention to plead guilty to the murders of Madison Mogen, 21, Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Ethan Chapin, 20, on November 13, 2022.

The news sparked an outburst of frustration from some of the victims’ family who wanted justice to play out in a full murder trial.

Under the newly finalized deal, Kohberger will dodge the death penalty and keep crucial information on the murders close to his chest, including why he killed the students in the first place.

But despite leaving many questions unanswered, the killer did lift the lid on eerie details that explain how he was able to swiftly claim four innocent lives on that dark day.

Prosecutors confirmed that Kohberger’s cell phone started pinging a cell tower near the house of horrors in Moscow in July 2022 – four months before the killings.

His phone would go on to connect to the tower around 23 more times between 10 pm and 4 am from July 9 until the time of the murders.

It’s unclear whether he was spending time near the victims’ home, however. Prosecutors said the area is densely populated, and they don’t have any evidence he ever interacted with the students.

On the morning of the murders, Kohberger left his home in nearby Pullman, Washington, where he was pursuing a PhD in criminology, and drove 10 miles to Moscow.

He turned his phone off from 2:54 am to 4:48 am.

Surveillance footage captured him driving down to the end of the street where the students live and parking behind the home, prosecutors said.

Kohberger then entered the home through a sliding door that went into the kitchen and went upstairs to the third floor, where best friends Madison and Kaylee were sleeping.

He brutally stabbed them to death with a military grade knife before walking down the steps and “encountering” Xana, who had been up eating a meal that was delivered through DoorDash.

Prosecutors said that Kohberger “ended up killing her” before going to her room and targeting her boyfriend Ethan, who was asleep.

After the murders, Kohberger’s car was captured on surveillance zooming away from the area “at a high rate of speed” and nearly losing control while turning a corner at around 4:20 am.

Prosecutors believe he then took back roads the rest of the way home before entering Pullman around 5:26 am and getting to his apartment a few minutes later.

Court documents had previously stated that Kohberger left the sheath to his knife at the scene and that there was DNA evidence on it.

Attorneys have now revealed that they were able to tie Kohberger to the scene after finding one of the killer’s dad’s Q-tips in his trash and making the connection.

FAMILY FURIOUS

The families of victims had split reactions to the hearing.

Two families said they were ready to move on and thought life in prison was a fair punishment, but the Goncalves family said the process was rushed and felt blindsided.

In a searing statement, the Goncalves family said the plea “makes everything go away” for the prosecution and “lets them get back to their normal routine.”

“This plea did not represent the victims families it represented an easy way out and no answers. Everyone loves the justice system until you get involved in it,” they wrote.

“Then you really see that most of the time the cases and resolutions have nothing to do with the victims. At least that was our experience.”
