Bryan Kohberger admitted to killing four Idaho students, prompting media organizations to request removal of the non-dissemination order limiting case information since 2022.

In his written factual basis filed in court ahead of his plea hearing, Kohberger admitted to the murders for the first time

For all four of his victims - Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin - Kohberger admits to their 'willful, unlawful, deliberate, with premeditation and with malice aforethought, killing and murder.' The killer signed the document in pen on July 1, with his scrawling handwriting reading: 'Bryan C. Kohberger'.
