20/20’s Idaho Justice episode leaves more questions than answers

It has been quite a busy last few weeks.

From busy days at work to trying to stay on top of all the big national news of late, I had scaled back watching some of the Bryan Kohberger case.

With Kohberger not challenging his sentence, where he admitted to killing four University of Idaho students in the early morning hours of Nov. 13, 2022, things have been rather quiet on the case as of late. That is until ABC recently aired its 20/20 episode of Idaho Justice. Idaho Justice

I recorded the show the other week and got around to watching it the other night after a long workday. to say I had a few observations would be an understatement.

I’ve all along thought Kohberger was involved in the deaths of Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. That said, I have never thought he acted alone.

With that in mind, here are but a few thoughts on the two-hour Idaho Justice episode:

  • ABC’s Kayna Whitworth obviously came into this episode 110 percent convinced Kohberger m*rdered these four students. In her eyes, he was a monster along the lines of Bundy, Rolling, and others. To say she was biased in her reporting would be an understatement. As someone who has been in journalism for 36 years, I always try and go into a story as unbiased as possible. Not doing so makes me feel like I do not give my audience a fair report.
  • Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke seem to look worse in each news show dedicated to the tragic killings of the Idaho Four. Mortensen especially has no legitimate reason for not having called 911 much earlier. She may not have been able to save any of the victims, but waiting nearly eight hours to call for help is inexcusable, to say the least. To see a strange individual in your home, hear lots of noise, and not be able to reach your four roommates (only Funke survived besides her) for hours on end should have been big red flags.
  • There has never been footage released clearly showing Kohberger’s white Elantra pulling up to or leaving the scene of the crime at 1122 King Road. Yes, there is a vehicle seen circling the area and then speeding away from the area. Not once has there been camera footage showing it is HIS vehicle with a Pennsylvania rear plate.
  • Kohberger took a bunch of selfies and that is portrayed as strange. How many of us have taken selfies over time? Taking selfies may seem to strange to some, but I don’t think his personal pictures makes him a serial killer. His earlier substance usage was noted. I have said all along I thought that what went down on Nov. 13, 2022 involved drugs to some degree.
  • Kohberger went to the same community college in Pennsylvania that I did, simply many years apart. That is yet another reason I became wrapped up in this case from day one.
  • I actually came away with a better impression of the Chapin Family. I know they have taken some heat over the last nearly three years. I know I was critical of none of them attending Kohberger’s sentencing so they could speak up for their son and brother. That said, I thought the interviews with them in this episode made them seem more likable.
  • Why was the home demolished and taken to a secret location? Where is a photo of the actual knife sheath? Why did Moscow Police Department members go into the house initially without guns drawn? How would they know there was no threat in the home? Finally, Hunter Johnson is the one who reportedly found Xana and Ethan in her bedroom. You mean to tell me, given the horror there, that no one went to check on Kaylee and Maddie on the third floor? I’m sorry, but I have a really hard time believing that.

While Kohberger is seemingly in prison for the rest of his life, the questions involving this case are not going away anytime soon.

Bethany Funke was most concerned with if she could go home for Thanksgiving

Four of your roommates and supposed “friends” were just killed and the first thing you want to know when talking to police is if you can go back to Nevada for Thanksgiving with the family. Not exactly the thing many people would ask someone in law enforcement.

Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke
Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke.

That said, that is what in fact University of Idaho student Bethany Funke asked members of the Moscow Police Department on Nov. 13, 2022. Police had been called to the student rental home at 1122 King Road around noonish or early afternoon. Inside, four students lay dead.

Maddie Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin were killed sometime earlier that morning. Police reports suggest the latter two were found in Kernodle’s bedroom, with Goncalves and Mogen discovered in Mogen’s third-floor bedroom.

While the murders are by far the most disturbing thing here, another disturbing thing is what the two surviving roommates have had to say over the last two and a half years.

Funke from Nevada and Dylan Mortensen from Boise, Idaho, have been the center of much attention from the true crime world on the Internet.

I have been consistent from early on in this case that I did not think Mortensen and Funke had a hand in the killings. While I still believe that, they are certainly not going to win any Roommate of the Year awards anytime soon.

Recently released body cam footage from the Moscow Police Department shows both survivors outside on a chilly and overcast Moscow day talking to authorities.

Among some of the things that stood out to me in the body cam footage:

  • Dylan claims Kaylee ran down the stairs (to the second floor) and yelled someone is here. That is presumably someone who should not be in the home. Goncalves supposedly was never seen again. Meantime, Mortensen went back in her bedroom and reportedly locked the door. Despite hearing Goncalves reportedly scream and a male voice say that they were there to “help” someone, Mortensen never called 911. If Goncalves ran downstairs to the second floor screaming, how did she supposedly end up dead in bed with Mogen on the third floor? Did the perp/s drag her back upstairs? I don’t care if she’s young, drunk, or just plain stupid, the irresponsibility of Mortensen when at least one of her roommates was in trouble is inexcusable.
  • When Bethany is first interviewed by MPD, she asks if she’ll be able to go home (Nevada) for Thanksgiving. Really?? I don’t have the words to describe that. Four of your “friends” were just slaughtered and you are concerned about Thanksgiving with the family.
  • My late uncle was a cop. I have worked with cops over 36 years in journalism. The majority of them are good men and women. That said, the department here made its share of mistakes. Most notably, they let a number of students congregate outside unsupervised while they were inspecting the home. Minutes later, the cops do come out and ultimately begin talking to the students. You never let potential suspects and/or witnesses alone like that.
  • If Kernodle was in fact stabbed some 50 times, how would Mortensen assume she was just passed out from drinking or drugs? Are you telling me there was NO noticeable blood around some 50 stab wounds? Sorry, I’m not buying that.
  • Mortensen notes the stranger she saw looked at her as he passed through the second floor. Rule 101 of such acts like that taking place in the home is never to leave a witness behind. So, the perp just let Mortensen live and decided to take their chances she wouldn’t be able to make a sketch of them to the police department etc.?

More to come as I get through the second half of the body cam interviews and investigation.

Photo dump in Bryan Kohberger case leaves us with still more questions

Last week’s photo dump by the Moscow Police Department in the killings of four University of Idaho students nearly three years ago left many of us with more questions than answers.

I’ve maintained all along that I thought Bryan Kohberger was involved in the deaths of Maddie Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin. That said, I’ve also maintained that more than one person was involved. To this day I still feel that way.

Sure, we know the terror Ted Bundy did last century. We also know about Danny Rolling and countless other killers. It is possible for one person to commit such a heinous act or acts on their own. In this case, however, my gut has said multiple people were doing the killing inside the home at 1122 King Road in the early morning hours of Nov. 13, 2022.

I certainly see where the Kohberger acted alone group gets their thinking from.

He offered a guilty plea to the four murders. He never said he had help carrying them out. He also to this day has never named any other people possibly involved in the murders.

It would be easy to agree with people thinking this and bury the case, moving on to another high-profile true crime story.

Not so fast.

While possible to carry out such a reprehensible act in under 15 minutes, a timeline the Moscow PD has pretty much stuck by from day one, would require several things. Among them:

  • Using a gun and not a knife
  • Having a very strong idea of the home’s unusual layout
  • Navigating in relatively dark conditions on two separate floors
  • Getting zero resistance from any of the four victims
  • Avoiding leaving a massive blood trail out of the home
  • Not having your vehicle CLEARLY identified as leaving the scene right after the murders happened

We know after all this time the following:

  • The defendant did not use a gun. Using a gun would have certainly made the timeline much more likely
  • There is zero evidence to note Kohberger had ever been in the home before. Looking up the home on Zillow and being in it are two entirely different things. Even if you peered through the windows on the parking lot area above the home, you’d not see clearly into most of the rooms.
  • There was no evidence put forth by MPD that Kohberger used a helmet or flashlight. There is also no evidence to show all the lights were on in the home in the 4 ish a.m. – 4:15 ish a.m. time period.
  • We know at least Kernodle fought back. It may well be that Goncalves did too. Doing so increase the time period the killer must spend in the home.
  • While some of the pictures released by MPD do show notable blood in the home, there is no massive trail of it leaving from Kernodle’s room or that of Mogen’s that we have seen. So, did the perp stop and mop everything up on the way out of the home? That of course would add more time to the reported timeframe.
  • We have never seen evidence from MPD that Kohberger’s Pennsylvania license plate was caught on film leaving the roads out of the neighborhood. You would think at some point along the trail one would have caught the rear plate (Pennsylvania where Kohberger’s car was registered in does not have front plates).

While I will never convince the guilters that Kohberger had help, they will never convince me he did not.

In the meantime, we continue to look over the photos released to date. While some are rather disturbing, I have a few questions:

  • Where are the police body cams from that afternoon when MPD came to the home after the 911 call?
  • Why haven’t we seen a photo of the sheath reportedly found on Mogen’s bed?
  • For what police themselves described as a really bloody scene, why no trail of blood out of the home?
  • How in the world did surviving roommates Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke not see Kernodle on the floor of her bedroom? Dylan we know was awake enough to spot a masked intruder in the home sometime between 4 and 4:20ish a.m. One would think once safe to do so she would have physically checked on her roommates to make sure all were safe. And please spare me the line of she was a drunk kid. She was sober enough to note the masked intruder had bushy eyebrows and was tall while wearing black. She was also living away from home and paying rent, something kids do not typically do.

Safe to say that this case may be over legally, but the questions are not going anywhere anytime soon.

Do you still think Bryan Kohberger is the guy?

Ever since the document dump began the other day after quadruple murderer Bryan Kohberger accepted his fate in a Boise courtroom, there has been much chatter online.Bryan Kohberger

For many people, Idaho got the right guy and the case is in essence over. For many others, dissecting the case is only just beginning.

That said, the unveiling of only a few of many documents has left me with more questions than answers.

While I have maintained from early on that I think Kohberger was involved, the latest document dump leads me to think even more so that others were too.

Yes, Kohberger confessed. No, others haven’t been arrested. That said, it does not mean authorities have given us all the information. It also doesn’t mean they have gotten all the details right.

After these latest tidbits came out in the last two days, I am focusing on the following:

  • Kaylee’s injuries – According to documents and her own father’s words, Kaylee Goncalves had several dozen stab wounds. She also had a broken nose and teeth knocked out. All of that tells me rage. It could also be payback or jealousy. Perhaps another female student had an issue with Kaylee. I find it hard to believe a stranger would beat the $hit out of Kaylee for no good reason. While it could have been Kohberger upset that Kaylee was an obstacle to him possibly being interested in harming only Maddie Mogen, Kaylee could have diverted his attention. In doing so, he went off on her. Then again, could a female or male student have done this in wanting to get back at her for some reason?
  • Xana’s injuries – Much like Kaylee, Xana was heavily abused, leading to some 50 stab wounds. She apparently fought back or at least tried to protect herself. In doing so, the killer went after her hard. While Xana likely ran into the perp either on the second or first floor stairs, she had time to get back to her bedroom. She was likely wounded at that point. I have to think she was screaming for her life. With Maddie and Kaylee already wounded and perhaps fatally, that left boyfriend Ethan Chapin, along with roommates Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, to try and help her. Most thoughts are Ethan was passed out in Xana’s bed and probably did not put up a great deal of resistance if any. Still, this struggle could well have taken 10 or more minutes. With Moscow Police Department’s estimated timeline of the killings, could one person have done all this in that time frame and apparently left the home with little or no blood trail? Multiple people could have cleaned things up much more quickly.
  • Dylan and Bethany’s morning schedule – If you followed this case from early on, you know that Dylan and Bethany, the two surviving roommates at 1122 King Road, were on separate floors. Dylan supposedly saw a figure in black with a mask on walking past her second floor bedroom after she had partially opened her door several times. While she was not harmed, she reportedly went into a frozen state of shock and stayed in her bedroom to go back to sleep. Then we later heard that once the coast was clear, she bolted down to the first floor and Bethany’s room. We later discovered the two were texting their roommates, calling at least one parent, and even job hunting at one point of the morning online. All this time, their four slain roommates were on the two floors above them. One of the first things I wondered was did neither of them ever go upstairs to the second floor kitchen for food or drink? What about Kaylee’s dog Murphy on the third floor? Wouldn’t he have been periodically barking to go outside? Finally, close to noon, the two reached out to a fellow student or two for help. After they came to the house, it was then discovered by the male student (Hunter) that Xana and Ethan were dead. I still wonder, no one went up to the third floor to check on Maddie or Kaylee until the police arrived? While I again do not think Dylan and Bethany were in on the murders, their version of events that morning stinks to high heaven.

With there being no trial, with Kohberger not offering up any answers to that night/morning, we may never get the truth.

In the meantime, many of us will continue to have and ask questions.

For many of us, cases like this and things that do not add up lead to theories that some may even label conspiracies….

Why did Bryan Kohberger say he was guilty?

Today’s sentencing hearing in a Boise courtroom for quadruple murderer Bryan Kohberger left me with more questions than answers. Yes, I already had many questions going into the hearing. Idaho 4

Sitting in a orange prison suit and viewing the proceedings quite stoically, Kohberger watched and listened as multiple family and friends of the deceased spoke out on the physical and mental impact the killings had on them.

The Nov. 13, 2022 deaths of Maddie Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin captured not only much of the nation’s attention, but also parts of the world. No matter how any of us feel about the case, the victims can never be brought back to life.

Kohberger chose not to speak today when given the chance by the judge. Honestly, did we really think he would open up to the family and friends of the victims now?

I have made it known that while I think Kohberger was involved, I do not think he acted alone.

After hearing today’s Latah County press conference following the sentencing, I must admit I further question if we are getting all the facts.

I will just say for now that I think it would have been a 50-50 chance at best if the state would have gotten a guilty conviction at trial.

Today’s presser noting no known motive, no direct connection to Mogen or anyone else in the home for that matter, no murder weapon, no clear video or photos of Kohberger entering or leaving the home etc. leads me to believe the state got a gift. That is Kohberger willingly pleading guilty. The state must have felt as if it had been served a gift on a silver platter.

There is much more to say in upcoming blog posts.

Most notably what we saw and heard from family and friends today with their victim impact statements. I will save that for my next post.

Until then, more questions than answers on if the real killer is in fact behind bars or others walk freely among us….

Kohberger plea deal leads to SO many questions

Today’s quadruple guilty pleas in a Boise courtroom by Bryan Kohberger have brought on so many questions in my mind. Bryan Kohberger

Yes, some of these questions have been with me for some two and a half years.

The tragic deaths of Maddie Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin in the early morning hours of Nov. 13, 2022 in a Moscow, Idaho rental home captured the attention of many people. That is both here at home and across the world.

That said, Kohberger will be sentenced on July 23 for the crimes he admitted to.

In the meantime, here are but a few of the questions I have:

  • If Maddie was in fact the target, why did Steve Goncalves say way back in the case that he (BK) did not need to go up to the third floor? Was Xana or Ethan on second floor the target. And how would BK know or not know Ethan was spending the night?
  • If Maddie was his goal, why not kidnap her at your time and choosing? Going into a home in the middle of the night and not knowing what is waiting for you is much more of a risk.
  • Given police had an approximate timeline of 15 minutes or less for all four m*rders, how did BK do it without a gun? A knife takes much more effort, especially in darker conditions. There should have been blood spray all over BK. Did he clean up real fast? And if you think BK did all this with only a knife in such a short time, why do you think that? Please don’t say because Ted Bundy could kill multiple people in a short amount of time.
  • If BK supposedly staked out the home, he would have known two more females lived there. Why take a chance on leaving any witnesses?
  • Why drive across the border into a death penalty state when you have double the student population at Washington State University. You could also blend in easier on the Wazzu campus and neighborhoods. It never quite made sense to me other than a possible drug sale or buy to go to a home in Moscow in the middle of the night.
  • Where is the knife? Where are the bloody clothes? While that part of the country is rather rural, you could still try and bury something or toss away and it ends up being discovered.
  • Will we ever discover why Dylan and Bethany f*cked around for nearly 8 hours before calling for help? And why was there never a mention of blood in the call? Surely someone had to see it if the m*rders were as bad as we were told.
  • Why the rush to tear down the home? Did one or more folks already know back in late 2023 there ultimately would not be a trial? If so, that is a problem
  • Why not go to trial? At worst, a guilty conviction and possible death sentence. At least you have chance of a mistrial, conviction but no death sentence, endless appeals etc. I do not get taking a plea deal here and essentially being a caged animal for however many years you go on to live.
  • Was Anne Taylor his best option? Obviously BK and his family did not have OJ type money to hire the best and the brightest. While I was impressed with Taylor early on, she did a disservice to her client at the end of the day while making lots of $$$.

While I have more questions, those are it for now.

What do you wonder about this tragic case?

Would you have taken the Kohberger plea deal?

If all the reports from yesterday in fact play out in an Idaho courtroom Wednesday local time, accused quadruple murderer Bryan Kohberger will plead guilty in the murders of four University of Idaho students on Nov. 13, 2022. He is also facing a count of burglary.

Bryan Kohberger

Kohberger, a former Washington State University grad assistant, is accused in the murders of Kaylee Goncalves (21), Maddie Mogen (21), Xana Kernodle (20) and Ethan Chapin (20). The four were killed in a Moscow rental home at 1122 King Road in the early morning hours that Sunday in November.

While I have always thought that Kohberger had some involvement in the crime, I to this day do not 100 percent believe one individual caused all this carnage.

Kohberger, who was scheduled to go to trial later this summer in Boise, reportedly agreed to a plea deal to avoid the death penalty should he have been convicted and sentenced to death. With the death penalty now reportedly removed, Kohberger is expected to plead guilty and face life in prison without any possible parole or ability to appeal his case.

I know if I were in those shoes, I would max out this case until my last appeal was denied.

We know from recent cases the last few decades that some on trial do walk. Think of O.J. Simpson and Casey Anthony among such well-known cases. Most people think both were guilty of their respective murder charges, yet both ultimately went free.

While there is a fair amount of circumstantial evidence against Kohberger, there are also a number of questions in the state’s case against him.

If you were him tomorrow in a Boise courtroom, would you change your mind and reject the plea deal if not all was signed, sealed and delivered?

I would much rather take my chances with a jury of 12 of my peers than throw in the towel.

Kohberger to accept plea deal, life in prison without parole

The media has been trained on Idaho the last 24 or so hours.

Most of the focus was on the tragic killing of a couple firefighters who were ambushed while responding to a brush fire in the northwest part of the state.

Turn the page a day and the focus is back on the November 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students at a rental home in Moscow.

Kohberger trial

The defendant in the case, former Washington State University grad student Bryan Kohberger, has reportedly offered to plead guilty in exchange for avoiding the death penalty should he had been convicted. The trial in Boise was scheduled to begin Aug. 11.

While I will have more thoughts on this plea deal later this week, what are your initial thoughts?

Is the plea deal the prosecution offered fair to the families of victims Maddie Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin?

Is this justice for the families?

Are the families better off not having to sit through what would have been a painful trial?

More to come….

What questions would you have as a Kohberger jury member? (Part 2)

We think there will be a trial this August in the State of Idaho vs. Bryan Kohberger quadruple murder case.

It was Nov. 13, 2022 when Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were discovered murdered at 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho. The slayings of the four University of Idaho students shook the community and beyond. 

Shortly after Christmas, Kohberger, a Washington State University grad student, was arrested across the country in Pennsylvania for the four murders and a charge of felony burglary.

Given Kohberger refused his right to a speedy trial, the case has dragged on some two and a half years. If the trial does begin in early August, it will be a welcome relief for many people.

That said, what questions would you have in this case if you were a sitting jury member later this summer?

Among the questions I would want answered by the prosecution and defense would be the following:

  • Why did BK as it appears take a photo of himself at home in his bathroom only hours after the m*rders took place? I take my share of selfies over time. That said, I know of only one of mine taken in the bathroom and I was being goofy in the photo.
  • Did any female students at Washington State University where BK was a grad student ever report him to be creepy or even st*lking them?
  • Why was a knife used in the m*rders and not a gun? While a gun certainly can make more noise at the moment it is fired, many people can be taken out with a single bullet. A knife attack unless hitting a main artery or slashing the throat tends to be messier and can be noisier. That is especially if the victim is trying to fight back.
  • Is there any video or cell phone photos of Xana and Ethan from approximately 9 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. on Nov. 12-13? They were reportedly at his frat for a period of time. Xana’s dad also supposedly talked to her at some point by phone then.
  • What is it that Maddie supposedly told bartender Adam as has been oftentimes mentioned? Was it something that could have led to one or more individuals wanting to harm her?
  • What is the best guess to the order of the four dying? Knowing the order could better define if one of the four was in fact the intended target.
  • Could any of the four possibly been saved with immediate medical attention? Given all the commotion going on in the middle of the night, was Dylan aware or not something bad had happened? She supposedly saw a masked intruder in the home. If that is true, why not go check on your roommates once safe to do so and not nearly eight hours later? My gut still tells me that one or more of the victims likely bled out. I doubt we will truly ever know if one or more had a chance if given fast help. Even the medical experts can’t say with 100 percent certainty.
  • Finally, why did no neighbors apparently hear or see anything when the m*rders went down? Although the reported timeline was the middle of the night, that neighborhood is very condensed. One would think someone heard or saw something coming from the area of the home.

If you were a juror and talking in a closed sessions with your fellow jurors, what would you want most to know or have clarified before rendering a verdict?

What questions would you have as a Kohberger jury member? (Part 1)

We think there will be a trial this August in the State of Idaho vs. Bryan Kohberger quadruple murder case.

It was Nov. 13, 2022 when Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were discovered murdered at 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho. The slayings of the four University of Idaho students shook the community and beyond.

Shortly after Christmas, Kohberger, a Washington State University grad student, was arrested across the country in Pennsylvania for the four murders and a charge of felony burglary.

Given Kohberger refused his right to a speedy trial, the case has dragged on some two and a half years. If the trial does begin in early August, it will be a welcome relief for many people.

That said, what questions would you have in this case if you were a sitting jury member later this summer?

Among the questions I would want answered by the prosecution and defense would be the following:

  • Was Bryan Kohberger infatuated with any of the victims in the home? If yes, which one and why?
  • Had BK ever come in contact with any of the victims before Nov. 13, 2022?
  • Was it common for BK to drive around in the middle of the night? If so, what was typically the reason for this?
  • Why was BK’s phone on prior to the murders and then off for a period of time before going back on?
  • If BK is the correct person charged with these murders, why does it appear he was not injured nor had any known blood in his vehicle or apartment tied to the case?
  • What is the exact timeline police believe these killings took place? While it is possible for one individual to commit such crimes, it has been thought the timeline could be under 15 minutes. That is not much time to cover two floors in relative darkness, meet some resistance, and then do some cleaning up of the scene.
  • What was the order of death for the victims? Although it has been guessed, I do not ever remember seeing exact confirmation of this key detail. Knowing the order could narrow down if in fact one person was targeted or it was a random burglary and murders scene.
  • Why did surviving roommates Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke wait nearly 8 hours to call for help? This after Mortensen had reportedly spotted a masked intruder on the second floor during the event.
  • It is alleged that Mortensen heard a male say something along the lines of “It’s OK, I’m going to help you” in relation to words said in the area of Kernodle’s second floor bedroom. Say for a moment that was the killer talking to Kernodle or Chapin who well could have been seriously wounded by now. Would a masked intruder say that to a victim and expect them to believe help had arrived? Why would the killer take the mask off and say that to a victim?
  • What was happening with Kaylee’s dog, Murphy, during the eight or so hours from the believed timeline of the murders to when 911 was called and police arrived? Are we to believe a young dog would simply sleep for the most part through all this?
  • Did neither Mortensen nor Funke go up to the kitchen on the second floor for food all morning before help came? Hard to believe that was the case. If one or both went up to the kitchen, did they not stop and knock on Kernodle’s door or wonder where the two roommates on the third floor were? One of my big questions for many months now, WHY NOT GO AND CHECK/GET THE TWO OLDEST WOMEN IN THE HOUSE DURING ALL THIS TIME? THAT IS ESPECIALLY AFTER SEEING A MASKED INTRUDER IN THE HOME AND ENDLESS CALLS AND TEXTS TO KAYLEE AND MADDIE GOING UNANSWERED. I STILL HAVE NEVER UNDERSTOOD THAT.
  • Why would Kohberger leave a non-death penalty state like Washington and drive across to death penalty state Idaho and allegedly murder four students? Keep in mind Washington State University has around double the student population of the University of Idaho. As such, there would be plenty of female targets for him at Wazzu and even within walking distance. Why risk going across the border on a Saturday night/Sunday morning when local police would be out looking for say drunk drivers, noise offenses etc. on and around the campus in Moscow?

Those are just “some” of the questions I would want answers to. There will be more to come.

So, what questions would you want clear answers to if you served on the jury?
