Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to murdering four University of Idaho student but there were always red flags. This is one of the reasons Bryan Kohberger was denied when he tried to be a part of the Pullman Police Dept. Former Pullman Police Chief joins STS about his interaction with Idaho Killer Bryan Kohberger. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime. In this episode STS Host, Joel Waldman, interviews Former Pullman Police Chief Gary Jenkins about what he noticed about Kohberger--and what happened as the breaking news unfolded. Bryan Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student, pleaded guilty on July 2, 2025, to the November 13, 2022 home‑invasion stabbing murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Facing charges of four counts of first‑degree murder and one count of felony burglary, Kohberger accepted a plea deal that spares him the death penalty in exchange for four consecutive life sentences plus an extra 10 years, with no possibility of appeal. Prosecutors secured a conviction based on DNA evidence from a knife sheath and Q‑tip, along with cell‑tower data and surveillance footage, though the motive remains officially unknown. Now awaiting sentencing on July 23, the controversial plea—welcomed by some families seeking closure but strongly opposed by others—has ignited widespread debate and media coverage.
