Court Documents Reveal Chilling Texts From Surviving Roommates in Idaho Student Murders

Newly unsealed filings detail the moments after the attack, including texts about a masked intruder and desperate attempts to contact the victims.

  • Two surviving roommates, identified as DM and BF, exchanged frantic texts during and after the attack on November 13, 2022, describing a masked intruder with 'bushy eyebrows.'
  • The texts reveal that DM saw the intruder leave the house around 4:17 a.m., shortly after the murders of four University of Idaho students occurred.
  • DM and BF attempted to contact the victims multiple times via calls and texts, receiving no responses, before retreating to BF's room for safety.
  • A 911 call was placed from BF's phone around noon the next day, after the victims' bodies were discovered and following communication with others at the scene.
  • Prosecutors plan to introduce the text messages and timeline as evidence in the trial of suspect Bryan Kohberger, whose DNA was allegedly found on a knife sheath at the crime scene.
