Officials in Idaho released a 3D model of the house where Bryan Kohberger killed four University of Idaho students following his guilty plea.
Kohberger pleaded guilty on July 2 to the murders of Ethan Chapin, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Kaylee Goncalves, in a deal which took the death penalty off the table. The four University of Idaho students were found dead on Nov. 13, 2022 at their house in Moscow, Idaho, located near campus.
In exchange for the death penalty being taken off the table, Kohberger will serve four consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole for the four counts of first degree murder and one count of felony burglary.
The Latah County Prosecutors Office on Friday released images of a 3D model of 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho, where the murders took place.

The King Road house was torn down in December 2023, but prosecutors planned on using the 3D replica during the now-canceled murder trial.
During a June hearing, Thompson described the 3D house as a “dollhouse,” but later said that word was inappropriate and then referred to it as a “model house.”
Images released by the prosecutor’s office show a 3D model version of 1122 King Road, showing the exterior and interior of the house. The model replica includes rooms inside the house, but isn’t furnished.
According to the Idaho Statesman, the model house was approved by Hippler for use during trial, despite objections from Kohberger’s defense team. However, Hippler approved the model house only for demonstrative purposes, so it couldn’t be used as evidence.

Following Kohberger’s sentencing on July 23, Judge Steven Hippler lifted the gag order previously imposed on anyone involved with the quadruple murder case, which allowed for the release of investigative documents.
Police documents released after Hippler released the gag order revealed that Goncalves and Mogen were both found together side by side.
The police report said both women were “covered by a pink blanket which was covered in blood.”

“It was obvious an intense struggled had occurred,” police wrote in another report, describing the crime scene.
Authorities noted that they saw “what appeared to be defensive knife wounds on Xana’s hands,” adding that a tan leather knife sheath was also found.
