WARNING: Disturbing Details Ahead

Recently unsealed court documents have unveiled a detailed forensic examination of the tragic University of Idaho murders from November 2022, shedding light on the number of injuries sustained by each victim and offering new insights into their final actions.

Fox News Digital obtained a supplemental expert disclosure in which a bloodstain pattern analyst reviewed autopsy data, crime scene images, and lab tests to prepare testimony for the upcoming trial.

The filing indicates that Kaylee Goncalves suffered about 38 stab wounds, Madison Mogen 28, Xana Kernodle 67, and Ethan Chapin 17. Although the complete autopsy reports were not included, the key findings of each were disclosed.

The report notes that all four victims were discovered in their respective bedrooms at 1122 Kings Road, with no signs of them having left their rooms after the attack occurred in the early hours of November 13, 2022.

Goncalves and Mogen were discovered together in Mogen’s third-floor bedroom, lying in bed under a comforter.

Investigators found no blood on the bottoms of their feet, indicating neither woman stood after suffering fatal injuries.

Chapin was found on the bed in Kernodle’s second-floor bedroom, partially covered by bedding, and he also showed no blood on the bottoms of his socks.

Kernodle, however, was found on the floor of her bedroom and was the only victim with evidence of movement after the attack. According to investigators, blood was present on the bottoms of her bare feet, showing she stepped in blood and moved around inside her room during the attack.

The details of the students’ slaying emerged after Bryan Kohberger was sentenced in the killings.

In July 2025, Kohberger pleaded guilty to four counts of first-degree murder as part of a plea agreement that spared him the death penalty. He was sentenced to four consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole and is incarcerated at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution.
