Maldives at risk?
New details are emerging concerning a suspect arrested Friday in connection with the quadruple murders of four University of Idaho students.
Bryan Kohberger, 28, was arrested early Friday morning in Pennsylvania He’s been charged with first-degree murder and felony burglary and is expected to be extradited to Idaho to face charges. He’s currently being housed at the Monroe County Prison in Pennsylvania.
As CrimeOnline previously reported, police also seized a white Hyundai Elantra in connection to the case. The vehicle was found at the home in Chestnuthill Township, Monroe County, where police arrested the suspect.
“We have an individual in custody who committed these horrible crimes, and I do believe our community is safe,” Moscow Police Chief James Fry said in the news conference.
Criminal Justice Major
Online records indicate Kohberger is not a student at the University of Idaho but does attend college as a criminal justice graduate student at Washington State University. The campus is around 10 miles away from the University of Idaho campus.
Kohnerger was also a psychology student at DeSales University in Pennsylvania. He reportedly participated as a student investigator in a survey regarding crimes and how people felt and thought after committing them.
Targeted Attack
Police believe the suspect carried out a targeted attack on November 13, when Ethan Chapin, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20; and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, were found dead inside a residence off of King Road, near the University of Idaho.
It’s unclear, however, who the intended target was or if the target was even one of the victims.
