Idaho State Police revealed Wednesday that convicted murderer Bryan Kohberger maintained no connection whatsoever to the four University of Idaho students he brutally killed in November 2022.
The stunning revelation came during a news conference following Kohberger’s sentencing hearing, where he received four consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.
“We have never, to this day, found a single connection between him and any of the four victims or the two surviving roommates,” Idaho State Police Lt. Darren Gilbertson told reporters.
Law enforcement officials emphasized the exhaustive nature of their investigation into potential connections between the killer and his victims.
“We had every resource possible and we worked that tirelessly,” Gilbertson stated during the press briefing.
The victims—Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, Madison Mogen, 21, and Ethan Chapin, 20—died in their off-campus residence during the early morning hours of November 13, 2022.
Kohberger’s arrest one month after the murders sparked widespread speculation about his motives and potential connections to the victims.
Multiple theories emerged suggesting various links between the perpetrator and those he killed, but investigators systematically debunked each claim.
Even President Donald Trump intervened demanding answers, Resist the Mainstream previously reported.
One prevalent theory suggested Kohberger frequented a local restaurant where Mogen and Kernodle worked as employees.
The restaurant owner later refuted these claims entirely, confirming that Kohberger never entered the establishment.
Social media connections between Kohberger and his victims also failed to materialize despite thorough investigation.
Investigators specifically addressed rumors that Kohberger repeatedly contacted one victim through social media platforms before the murders.
These claims suggested the victim never responded to his messages, potentially triggering rage that led to the killings.
Police confirmed Wednesday that zero social media connections between Kohberger and any victim had ever been discovered during their investigation.
Authorities also addressed speculation surrounding a Facebook user named “Pappa Rodger” who discussed the case extensively in online groups before Kohberger’s arrest.
Group administrators described the user’s posts as “creepy” and noted their intimate familiarity with case details.
“Of the evidence released, the murder weapon has been consistent as a large fixed blade knife. This leads me to believe they found the sheath,” read one post from the account.
This prediction proved accurate when investigators later confirmed discovering a fixed-blade knife sheath at the crime scene. However, the New York Post reported that police determined Kohberger was not operating the “Pappa Rodger” account, dispelling another connection theory.
Crime writers and investigators have focused particular attention on Madison Mogen as a potential primary target.
Authors Vicky Ward and James Patterson explored this theory in their recent book “The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy.”
Their analysis suggested Kohberger may have targeted Mogen to emulate infamous killer Elliot Rodger, who identified as an “involuntary celibate.”
Rodger murdered six people after being rejected by a blonde sorority member named Maddy, leading to speculation about similar motivations.
“It was her room he went straight to. And it’s her room you could see from the road if you parked your car at the cul-de-sac behind the King Road house, which the police believe he did multiple times,” Ward wrote in the book.
During Wednesday’s four-hour sentencing hearing, Kohberger provided no explanation for his actions when given the opportunity to address the court.
“I respectfully decline,” represented his only words throughout the entire proceeding.
The convicted killer struck a guilty plea deal in July that resulted in his life sentences without possibility of parole.
