Even more new details are coming out in the murder case against Poconos native Bryan Kohberger.
Newly-released documents show chilling texts between two surviving roommates, sent minutes after four University of Idaho students in the same house were fatally stabbed.
Text messages between the two living roommates and the 911 call transcript have been released in the Bryan Kohberger case, showing the fear and chaos just minutes after police believe the four University of Idaho students were murdered.
Referred to as DM and BF in the court documents, the text exchange took place from 4:22 to 4:24 a.m. Police believe the murders took place shortly after 4 a.m.
DM texted BF “No one is answering.” DM then tried to text victim Kaylee Goncalves… “What’s going on.”
BF then texts DM, writing, “Xana was wearing all black.” Xana Kernodle was one of the victims.
DM then makes reference to someone in, “like a ski mask almost.”
Then typing, “Like he had something over his head and little mouth.”
“BF – I’m not kidding, I am so freaked out.”
At 10:23 later that morning, DM tried texting three roommates… “R U up.”
A 911 call was placed at 11:58 a.m., nearly seven hours after the alleged intruder was spotted, in which one of the callers told the dispatcher, “Um. one of our – one of the roommates who’s passed out and she was drunk last night and she’s not waking up.” Then adding, “Oh, and they saw some man in their house last night.”
The roommate on the phone clearly panicked, having trouble telling the dispatcher the address of their home. Throughout the call the phone was passed around between the two roommates and another person at the house.
At one point the dispatcher grew impatient, saying, “Are you with the patient? Okay. I need someone to keep the phone, stop passing it around.”
The call ends with police arriving on scene and one can be heard saying “I think we have a homicide.”
The filing says the state anticipates both surviving roommates will testify during the trial that is expected to start in August. Kohberger, who is a Poconos native, has pleaded not guilty.
New evidence is coming to light in the case against Poconos native Bryan Kohberger.
