The affidavit said that when police went up to the third floor, they found Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen dead in bed. They had been stabbed.

Police used DNA to find out who the suspect was:
Reports say that Bryan Kohberger was found to be the person who killed four students at the University of Idaho in November by looking at his DNA.
ABC News said that police sources told them that they used DNA and public genealogy databases to find Kohberger.
The channel said that local police and the FBI followed Kohberger’s car, a white Hyundai Elantra, to Pennsylvania. This is the same kind of car that Moscow police said they saw near the home around the time the murders happened.
Kohberger’s lawyer, Jason LaBar, who is the chief public defender in Monroe County, said that Kohberger and his father drove 2,500 miles across the country in mid-December to spend the holidays with their families.

Kaylee Goncalves’s Mother Is Glad She Lives in A State with The Death Penalty.
The mother of murdered Idaho student Kaylee Goncalves says she is glad she lives in a state with the death penalty.
In November, four University of Idaho students died. Goncalves was one of them. Bryan Kohberger, a 28-year-old Ph.D. student and teaching assistant in the Department of Criminal Justice and Criminology at Washington State University, was arrested at his parents’ home in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania, on Friday.
He is going to be sent to Idaho, where the murders are said to have happened, to stand trial.
On Wednesday, Goncalves’ parents talked to Sean Hannity on Fox News. When asked what punishment she thought the person who killed her daughter deserved, Kristi Goncalves said, “Well, this person went in there that night with the intent to kill, showed no mercy, provoked, and killed our daughter, her best friend, and two of her friends. We’re glad we live in Idaho, where the death penalty is legal.”
When asked what she had to go through since her daughter died, she said: “It’s terrible, as anyone could have guessed. It’s like a bad dream from which you never wake up. I think about Kaylee and what happened to her every single second of every day. It makes me sick.”
Conclusions:
- Bryan Kohberger was in a courtroom in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, where he waived his extradition hearing. He is the main suspect in the deaths of four University of Idaho students. Now, he will be sent back to Idaho.
- In the early hours of November 13, 2022, Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, Ethan Chapin, 20, and Xana Kernodle, 20, were all stabbed to death in a home in the town of Moscow, Idaho.
- After about seven weeks, Kohberger was caught at his parent’s house in Pennsylvania. It looks like he went home for the holidays with his father in a white Hyundai Elantra that had become a focus of the investigation for police and the army of online sleuths following the case.
- Kohberger’s lawyer, Jason LaBar, said that his client is “eager to be cleared of these charges” and that, before Tuesday’s hearing, he is “calm.”
- Kohberger is a Ph.D. student at Washington State University studying Criminal Justice and Criminology. He works with Katherine Ramsland, a well-known forensic psychologist who calls herself an expert on serial killers.
