There are still several months until we'll see Bryan Kohberger officially stand trial for the accused brutal murder of four University of Idaho students. Before his identity was revealed to the public late last year, internet sleuths all over the world came together in hopes of finding a suspect and getting answers for the families and friends of the victims. True crime fanatics anxiously wait to see what will happen this summer. Still, occasional updates surrounding the tightly gag-ordered case continue to pour in.
According to the latest from NewsNation, the student residence/party house where Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin and Madison Mogen were stabbed to death is due to be demolished in the coming weeks. Local police, the FBI, the prosecution, and the defense have all had an opportunity to thoroughly examine the chilling crime scene. Now, the residence's windows are boarded up to prevent curious bypassers from snooping or sensationalizing.
Moscow Murder House's Final Months
The news comes from the U of Idaho's president. He stated in a memo that the home's owner extended an offer to the school that they've since accepted. As a result, the property at 1122 King Road in Moscow will be demolished later this semester. "This is a healing step and removes the physical structure where the crime that shook our community was committed," the recent note explains. "Demolition also removes efforts to further sensationalize the crime scene."
The residence spans nearly 2,200 square feet and has three levels. It contains six bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of the former on each floor and one of the latter. Additionally, it has a highly accessible sliding back door where Kohberger is believed to have entered the residence. The victims were found in or near their bedrooms on the second and third floors. The discovery was apparently made by friends several hours after the tragic murders. At this time, their school is working toward building a memorial dedicated to the victims on the Moscow campus.
Kohberger's Chilling SoundCloud Content
As he awaits his fate behind bars, the world has been diving into the accused killer's harrowing past. Last month, it was revealed that he previously tried his hand at rapping. He even uploading one of his songs to SoundCloud many years ago. Labelled "Rise up instrumental- test," the nearly four-minute posting finds Kohberger saying some chilling things that potentially foreshadow his alleged murderous antics in Moscow.
"You are not my equal / You are evil but I’m devil," he tells listeners. "End your life you get no sequel / Leave your loved ones crying like some seagulls / Don’t f*ck with us / You underestimate." Elsewhere in the news, it's been said that the former Ph.D. student's phone was searched. It allegedly contained numerous photos of one of the young women he killed, though authorities have yet to confirm.
