Disturbing new revelations have come to light regarding the tragic final moments of four young victims, as autopsy reports indicate that Bryan Kohberger inflicted over 150 stab wounds during a frenzied 15-minute assault.

According to a recently unsealed court document, obtained by the Daily Mail, these autopsies provide a harrowing account of the November 13, 2022, murders in Moscow, Idaho. The victims—Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin, Madison Mogen, and Kaylee Goncalves—were brutally attacked in their own home.

The autopsy of Xana Kernodle, who was awake during the attack, revealed she endured a horrifying 67 stab wounds while valiantly fighting against Kohberger, a criminology PhD student who turned into a killer.

Details of her injuries are chilling: 25 incised wounds on her upper limbs, 23 on her scalp, face, and neck, seven stab wounds to the chest, four to the abdomen, three to the back, and five wounds on her lower extremities. The extent of her injuries underscores the ferocity of the attack.

Kernodle, just 20 years old, suffered severe trauma, including punctures to the skull, perforations of vital organs such as the jugular vein, heart, and lungs, and hemorrhaging in her chest cavity. Her right hand bore deep wounds, and her body was marked with scrapes and bruises.

In a haunting detail, blood was found on the soles of her feet, suggesting she was actively trying to escape, moving through her own blood in a desperate attempt to survive the onslaught.

Her cause of death was ruled as multiple sharp force injuries, while also suffering abrasions and contusion of the head, torso, and extremities.

Kohberger broke into the student home at 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho, in the early hours of the morning on November 13, 2022.

The then-27-year-old criminology PhD student entered through the back sliding door into the kitchen on the second floor and is believed to have gone straight up to the third floor.

There, he attacked best friends Goncalves and Mogen, both 21, as they slept in Mogen’s bed.

The autopsies determined that they both died from multiple sharp force injuries, while Goncalves also suffered asphyxial injuries and blunt force injuries of the head.

Goncalves was stabbed a minimum of 38 times, her autopsy found, including at least 24 stab and incised wounds of the scalp, face, and neck; 11 stab and incised wounds of the chest and three stab and incised wounds of the upper extremities. She also suffered punctures of the outer table of the skull; injuries to the teeth and tongue; perforations of the subclavian artery and vein and hemorrhage into the chest cavities.

Police reports have previously revealed that Goncalves’s face was ‘unrecognizable’ following the attack, with Latah County Prosecutor Bill Thompson confirming that some of her injuries appeared to be caused by something other than the Ka-Bar knife used to kill the four victims.

He confirmed that investigators could not rule out the possibility that a second weapon was used on the 21-year-old. It is unclear what that weapon might have been.

The autopsy revealed the extent of those blunt force injuries including: scalp laceration; bleeding around the brain; nasal fracture; scrapes on the nose and cheeks; bruising around the eyes; and patterned bruises extending across the lower face.

The position of some of the bloodstains on Goncalves’s face and upper body, the bed comforter and wall indicate that ‘her posture and position did change during this event,’ the filing states. Goncalves’s father has previously said he believes his daughter woke up during the attack.

Mogen suffered 13 stab and incised wounds to the scalp, face and neck; 10 incised wounds of the upper extremities, and five stab wounds of the chest, the autopsy found.

She also had wounds to the lung and liver; perforations of the subclavian vein, subclavian artery, and blood vessels of the chest wall, an incision of the nasal septum, and perforation of the tongue.

Kohberger’s brown leather Ka-Bar knife sheath was found in the bed next to Mogen’s body. DNA on the sheath was found to be a match for the killer. Goncalves and Mogen’s blood were also found on the sheath.

Their blood was also found on the bedroom door, staircase rail down to the second floor and Goncalves’s blood was found on a beer pong table in the living room on the second floor – presumably caused by the killer as he left the top story.

Investigators believe that Kohberger encountered Kernodle after killing the two best friends.

While Goncalves, Mogen and Chapin were attacked while they slept, Kernodle was awake on TikTok and had just received a Jack in the Box DoorDash food order mere minutes before Kohberger broke in.

Based on the report – which found no evidence that any of the victims were in the living room area or the hallway to Kernodle’s room after being stabbed – Kohberger began attacking Kernodle inside her bedroom on the second floor. He also stabbed to death her boyfriend Chapin who was sleeping in her bed.

The court filing shows Chapin suffered six incised wounds of the upper extremities; six stab and incised wounds of the lower extremities; four stab and incised wounds of the scalp, face, and neck; and one stab wound of the upper chest. There were also perforations of the jugular vein, subclavian vein, and subclavian artery.

The autopsy findings give the clearest picture to date of the extent of violence that Kohberger inflicted on the victims.

It comes after a string of graphic crime scene images were released by Idaho State Police last week – before being swiftly deleted.

After murdering the four victims, Kohberger left through the back sliding door, passing surviving roommate Dylan Mortensen who had been woken by the noise and had peeked round her bedroom door on the second floor.

Mortensen, who was 19 at the time, saw a man dressed in all black with a mask over his face.

She and roommate Bethany Funke – whose bedroom was on the first floor – were the only survivors.

Terrified after seeing a masked man inside the home, Mortensen and Funke desperately tried to call and text their friends but got no response.

Ultimately, Mortensen ran down to Funke’s room on the first floor where they both stayed until daylight.

Around eight hours later, after the terrified students still could not get in touch with their friends, they called friends over to the home and the bloodbath was discovered.

Kohberger was arrested around six weeks later during a raid on his parents’ home in the Poconos region of Pennsylvania, where he had returned for the holidays.

For more than two years, he fought the charges.

Then, weeks before his trial, Kohberger changed his plea, pleading guilty to four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary on July 2.

The bombshell plea hearing came after he struck a controversial deal with prosecutors to take the death penalty off the table.

He was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole in an emotional hearing in Ada County Courthouse in Boise, Idaho, on July 23. Kohberger also waived his right to appeal.

The now-31-year-old killer refused to speak at his sentencing and has never revealed his motive.

No connection has ever been found between him and any of his victims.

Kohberger is now being held in solitary confinement inside the Idaho Maximum Security Institution where he will see out his dying days.

While behind bars, the mass killer has filed multiple complaints about prison life, the Daily Mail has exclusively revealed. 

Following complaints about inmates harassing him through the air vents to the state of the bananas on his meal tray, Kohberger then began threatening to harm himself behind bars if guards don’t move him to another unit. 

Meanwhile, the families of the four victims have together filed a lawsuit against Washington State University, the college where Kohberger was both a student and teaching assistant in the criminal justice department at the time of the murders.

The suit alleges that the killings ‘should not and would not have occurred if WSU had acted appropriately’ to multiple complaints and concerns about the criminology PhD student’s ‘inappropriate, predatory and menacing behavior.’ 

It alleges that the college learned about Kohberger’s ‘threatening, stalking and predatory behavior’ quickly into the 2022 fall semester with more than a dozen formal complaints raised by students and staff, but failed to act on the warning signs.
