Blood Found in the Possessions of Bryan Kohberger, Accused Killer of Idaho College Students

Blood was found on at least two items seized from Bryan Kohberger’s home, according to court documents released by authorities in Washington. Kohberger, a 28-year-old Washington State University criminology PhD student, was arrested on 30 December for the murders of four University of Idaho students: Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Kaylee Goncalves. The items that tested positive for blood were a mattress cover and an uncased pillow, both of which were found with “reddish brown stains”. However, the documents do not identify who the blood belongs to. In January, an affidavit revealed that Kohberger’s DNA was found on a knife sheath at the scene of the murders. A weapon has still not been recovered. Kohberger is set to appear in court on 26 June and could face life in prison or the death penalty.
