Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the Idaho student murders, has allegedly agreed to a plea deal to evade the death penalty for the 2022 killings of four students.
Victim Kaylee Goncalves’ family confirmed the deal offer on Monday night, saying they were “beyond furious.”
A letter had been sent to the four victims’ familes about the deal on Monday, ABC reported.
“It’s true!” the family said in a Facebook post.
“We are beyond furious at the State of Idaho. They have failed us.
“Please give us some time. This was very unexpected. We appreciate all your love and support.”
He is anticipated to admit guilt for the tragic murders that occurred in their home, in exchange for a life sentence without parole, as initially reported by NewsNation.
The four consecutive life sentence comes with no possibility of parole and he must reportedly waive his right to appeal, according to ABC.
A court hearing over the bombshell u-turn is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, where a judge will decide whether to accept it.
Kohberger’s trial had been schedule to start on August 18.
