Bryan Kohberger was charged with the Moscow murders of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin.
Following the stabbing deaths of four students in November, the tight-knit University of Idaho community was shaken for weeks, but the recent arrest of a suspect may allow the campus to regain a sense of security as students return to classes this week.
"The timing of this for our students was probably good," the provost said, adding, "Hopefully we can really just be focused on classes starting and on that student experience that we provide." Kohberger, who is the sole suspect, was pursuing a PhD in criminal justice at nearby Washington State University at the time of the killings and lived just minutes from the scene of the killings, according to authorities.
The suspect's white Hyundai Elantra was also seen close the victims' home around the time of the killings, according to investigators. Kohberger received a new license plate for the car five days after the killings, Washington state licensing records and court documents reveal. Kohberger "cleaned his car, inside and outside, not missing an inch," according to the law enforcement source.
