The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most sources agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

Bryan Kohberger filed a petition for post-conviction relief Monday in Ada County District Court seeking to withdraw his July 2025 guilty plea and challenge his conviction in the University of Idaho murders. Kohberger pleaded guilty to killing Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin in 2022 and is serving four consecutive life sentences without parole. In the filing, he says his lawyers pressured him with false promises about prison conditions and warnings about death row. He says he is innocent and wants a trial.
