University of Idaho Murders: Police Say Four Students Were Killed in a Targeted Attack

Four University of Idaho students were found dead inside an off-campus rental home in Moscow, Idaho, on November 13, 2022, in a case that shocked the local community and drew national attention.

The victims were Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin. Investigators said the students appeared to have been stabbed, and authorities described the killings as an isolated, targeted attack.

At the time, police emphasized that they had not identified a suspect and that the investigation was ongoing. The announcement raised questions about why the students had been targeted and whether there was any continuing danger to the public.

The case later led investigators to Bryan Kohberger, who was arrested in Pennsylvania in December 2022. He ultimately pleaded guilty to the four murders in 2025 and was sentenced to four consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole.

The case remains one of the most widely followed criminal investigations in recent years, remembered by the victims’ families and the community affected by the loss.
