Idaho Murder: The Police Discover Bryan Kohberger’s Knife
According to recently unsealed court documents, Pennsylvania police confiscated two knives and dozens of other items from Bryan Kohberger’s family home in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania.
Fox News obtained an unsealed search warrant for the Kohberger family home Thursday, revealing what police found after he was arrested in the fatal stabbing of four University of Idaho students on Dec. 30.
Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, Ethan Chapin, 20, and Xana Kernodle, 20, were killed on Nov. 13 by Kohberger, who is charged with four counts of first-degree murder. He was also charged with one count of theft. According to Kohberger’s former Pennsylvania attorney, the 28-year-old is “eager to be acquitted.”
Two knives, one identified as a “Smith and Wesson pocket knife”, a Glock 22 firearm, a book highlighted on a specific page, an Acer laptop, a blank sheet of paper with a password on it, black gloves, and assorted clothing items. They were recovered. Several other items were recovered from his home, as well as his 2015 Hyundai Elantra.
Police in Moscow, Idaho, previously said they believe a fixed-blade knife was used in the crime, and a sheath for a “ka-bar”-style knife was found at the scene, according to an affidavit Case Kohberger. Barn. It is currently unknown what type of knife police found or if it was used in the crime.
The return of the search warrant was released Thursday, just days after police issued a search warrant following Kohberger’s December 30 arrest. Among the items taken from him were several items of clothing, size 13 black and white Nike shoes, medical gloves, and a flashlight.
According to the unsealed search warrant, Kohberger also had a swab taken from his mouth during this arrest.
Former FBI agent Jennifer Coffinaffer told Newsweek earlier this week that the cheek swab was taken at the time of her arrest because investigators “wanted it to be quick.”
“Once you have a search warrant, there’s no further discussion,” Coffinaffer told Newsweek.
Speaking to Newsweek in January, Coffinaffer said the fixed-blade knife allegedly used in the crime would likely be found by “sheer luck” or if Kohberger acknowledged the location in court.
“I think he drove down that road to a remote area and got rid of what he was carrying, the knife, and where, we don’t know,” Coffinaffer said.
After Kohberger’s arrest, a Latah County, Idaho, a judge issued a gag order barring anyone involved in the case from speaking to the public.
