The family of Kaylee Goncalves, one of the four University of Idaho students killed by Bryan Kohberger in 2022, called him a “joke,” “loser,” and “as dumb as they come” in a day of searing victim impact statements.

Kohberger pleaded guilty to murdering Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle and Madison Mogen in their off-campus home on 13 November 2022. In exchange for that plea, he avoided the death penalty. The unsealed documents give a renewed sense of the brutality of the murders.
