The Kohberger Case Just Took a Dark New Turn
Idaho State Police โtemporarilyโ yanked horrifying crime scene photos of the off-campus house where Bryan Kohberger slaughtered four University of Idaho students from its website amid privacy concerns, the law enforcement agency revealed Thursday.
Thousands of previously unseen photos of the blood-soaked Moscow murder house were quietly uploaded by state authorities on Tuesday but were quickly scrubbed to further review, police told The Post.
โFollowing adjudication of the criminal case, the Idaho State Police received a large volume of public records requests seeking the photographs,โ a spokesperson for the department said in a statement.

โIn making the redactions, the Idaho State Police also chose to follow Judge Marshallโs permanent injunction, which required the City of Moscow to redact areas of the photographs depicting โany portion of the bodies of the decedents or the blood immediately surrounding them,โโ the statement continued.
โAfter questions were raised, the records were temporarily removed for further review to ensure the appropriate balance between privacy concerns and public transparency was struck.โ
Police vowed to re-release the photos โsoon,โ but didnโt provide an exact date.
Authorities also acknowledged the frustrations expressed by the victimsโ families over the shocking faux pas.

Kohberger, 31, copped to the quadruple killings when he took a surprise plea deal last July, just weeks beforeย his highly anticipated trialย was set to kick off.
However, the deal saw him skirt the possibility of the death penalty, enraging some of the families of his victims and leaving the loved ones with no explanation for why he committed the heinous murders.
He is serving four life sentences without the possibility of paroleย at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution.
