Photo Bryan Kohberger took of himself hours after Idaho murders has been revealed in court

The man accused of killing four Idaho college students has had a picture shown in court which allegedly shows him hours after the murders took place.

In November 2022, four victims, Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, were brutally stabbed to death in their shared accommodation.

Initially, the two surviving roommates told detectives that they saw a masked male intruder the night of the killing in their home.

After which, they hid away in their rooms until the bodies of their roommates were found the next morning.

Madison and Kaylee were discovered on the third floor of the home, while Xana and Ethan were found together on the second floor.

Investigators who arrived at the scene described it as the most 'gruesome' crime scene they'd ever seen, as images of the home and items inside of the rooms circulated social media.

Bethany Funke and Dylan Mortensen were left unharmed, and weeks later, criminology PhD student Bryan Kohberger was arrested on suspicion of carrying out the killings.

He was then charged with four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary, to which he pleaded not guilty.

In court, an image will be shown which is an alleged selfie he took hours after the murders.

The image has been introduced in court documents, showing Kohberger dressed in a white shirt and with Bluetooth earbuds in, as he smiles at the camera and holds his thumbs up.

According to the court documents, the State intends to introduce the image of Kohberger, ‘taken from his phone on November 13, 2022, only hours after the homicides at 10:31 a.m.’.

This is because one of the roommates, known as D.M, saw a male in their home wearing a ski mask and could only see their eyes, nose and brows.

According to the documents, the State will also show Kohberger’s driver’s license so that they can compare it against the witness’ description of a ‘male; white; skinny/athletic build; a few inches taller than D.M. (5’ 10”); not someone she knew; with bushy eyebrows.’

Recently, the lawyers of Kohberger asked the judge in his capital murder case to ban the key witness, Dylan, from using the phrase 'bushy eyebrows' from the court room, as this is what she had previously used to describe the person she saw in the home that evening.

This is because Kohberger's attorneys claim that the description is 'unreliable', stating as per ABC News: "The description provided by [the roommate] is unreliable and should be excluded.”

The defence attorneys also asked the judge to not use the words 'murder', 'psychopath' and 'sociopath' during the trial, adding: "To label Mr. Kohberger as a 'murderer', the alleged weapon consistent with an empty sheath as a 'murder weapon' or to assert that any of the four decedents was 'murdered' by Mr. Kohberger denies his right to a fair trial and the right to be presumed innocent."

Kohberger will next appear in court in April, with his trial expected to begin in August where he may be facing the death penalty.
