Overview

  • Authorities released the 911 call from November 13, 2022, when four University of Idaho students were found stabbed to death in their off-campus home.
  • In the call, a woman reported an unconscious roommate who was believed to be drunk and not waking up, later adding that a man had been seen in the house the previous night.
  • The call was placed at 11:55 a.m., several hours after the murders, with multiple people speaking to the dispatcher before police arrived within minutes.
  • Court documents reveal that surviving roommates texted each other about a possible intruder around 4:20 a.m., with one describing a masked man with bushy eyebrows leaving through a sliding glass door.
  • Bryan Kohberger, a criminology Ph.D. student at a nearby university, has been charged with the murders and is set to stand trial in August, with prosecutors seeking the death penalty.
