Idaho murders suspect's selfie puts focus on evidence citing "bushy eyebrows"

A flurry of court documents filed this week in the case of Bryan Kohberger, the man charged in the killings of four University of Idaho students in late 2022, offers new details about how the case against him is shaping up. Among those documents revealed by prosecutors is what appears to be a selfie Kohberger took on his phone just hours after the killings.

Kohberger, 30, is accused in the stabbing deaths of Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves at a rental home near campus in Moscow, Idaho. Autopsies showed the four were all likely asleep when they were attacked, some had defensive wounds and each was stabbed multiple times.

Kohberger, then a criminal justice graduate student at Washington State University, was arrested in Pennsylvania weeks after the killings. Investigators said they matched his DNA to genetic material recovered from a knife sheath found at the crime scene. A defense attorney pushed to have the DNA evidence thrown out, but Judge Steven Hippler denied that request last month.
