Newly Released Footage from Idaho Murder Case

Recently surfaced body camera footage reveals the harrowing moment police stumbled upon the bodies of four University of Idaho students. The alleged killer, Brian Koberger, continues to assert his innocence.

The video, featured in a trailer for an upcoming Netflix documentary, shows an officer entering a home in Moscow, Idaho. The living room is scattered with empty bottles and Solo cups as the officer quietly makes his way upstairs.

“Wow,” was the brief exclamation from the officer upon discovering the brutally slain Zana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, who had suffered numerous stab wounds.

Moving to the third floor, officers found Madison Mogen and Kaylee Gonsalves, who had also been murdered with knives. The footage captures the chilling discoveries.

“No way, dude,” one officer can be heard saying.

Another officer gasped, “Oh, no…”

“We need everyone. Four dead,” one of the officers announced over the radio.

Images from the scene also depict dried blood in the kitchen sink.

Moscow police Lt. Roger Lanier stated that this was the first murder in the town in seven years, and it marked the first “major crime scene” for many of the young officers.

The unsettling body camera footage is part of the documentary series, “Idaho Murder: A College Nightmare,” set to be released on Netflix.

The trailer also includes tense interviews with roommates Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, who lived on the first floor and survived the attack.

In the early morning hours of November 2022, shortly after Koberger left his home, Mortensen and Funke exchanged texts.

“I heard her scream. She saw someone,” a frantic Funke reportedly told investigators.

Mortensen encountered his assailant just before the latter exited the dorm.

Koberger, who holds a Ph.D. in Criminology and was a Washington State University student, admitted to the murders. Under a plea deal, he received four consecutive life sentences but avoided a potential death penalty.

In an unexpected twist, Koberger recently announced from prison that he has filed a motion to contest his conviction just a year after his confession.

He insists on his “absolute innocence,” claiming he was misled into accepting a guilty plea due to “false promises and blatant misinformation.”

Steve Gonsalves, father of victim Kaylee, expressed his feelings towards Koberger, referring to him as having been given “a second shot at a suspected murderer.”

“I hope we can confront him again and ensure he’s held accountable for everything he’s done,” Gonsalves shared with NewsNation.
