It’s long been speculated that Bryan Kohberger stalked 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho, before he broke in and murdered four University of Idaho college students in November 2022. Latah County Prosecutor Bill Thompson has now revealed how often Kohberger was near the house and exactly when he was there. Thompson spoke on the matter in a recent 48 Hours podcast interview. When asked if Kohberger “stalked” the house and the roommates he killed, Thompson responded, “Well, we think that Kohberger was certainly stalking that neighborhood.” According to Thompson, investigators were able to show Kohberger had been in the area of 1122 King Road at least 20 times before the attack between 10 p.m. and the early morning hours. “No legitimate reason” for Kohberger to be in Moscow Report: Kohberger possibly broke into the King Road house before the night of the murders, and was potentially stalking other victims in the area, says Latah County Prosecutor. #Idaho #kohberger #trial #news https://t.co/0dEMu1aIJ0— CBS2 News (@CBS2Boise) August 5, 2025 Thompson added, “There would be no legitimate reason for him to be over here to shop,” meaning Moscow, Idaho, near Pullman, Washington, where Kohberger was enrolled at Washington State University. “So we certainly believe that those trips involved Mr. Kohberger looking and surveilling or stalking, whatever the case may be,” Thompson said. Evidence supporting the fact that Kohberger may have been in the home before brutally killing Xana Kernodle, Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, and Ethan Chapin includes his seeming familiarity with the inside of the house, as well as reports that roommates came home to find their door off the hinges. Meanwhile, surviving roommates say that Goncalves told them she felt like she was being watched, and she even spotted someone on the wooded hillside behind the home while she was walking her dog. That same dog, Murphy, also behaved in several instances as if it sensed something or someone was behind the house. Referring to Kohberger’s seeming familiarity with the inside of the house, Thompson continued, “The layout of the house is unique — it’s a little bit confusing. Admittedly, if he was parked up behind the house on that bank, which we believe is where he parked, he would be able to see into the house at night, and he would be able to see whose rooms were where.” Cell phone data proved inconclusive Thompson also responded to reports of a separate attempted break-in in the King Road area around the same time. In that case, the door was locked. However, investigators were unable to place Kohberger’s phone at the scene during that incident, nor at the time surviving roommates reported the dog barking or when Goncalves said she had the unsettling feeling of being watched. As for whether Kohberger was stalking or surveilling 1122 King Road specifically in the more than 20 times he was in the neighborhood at odd hours of the night, Thompson said, “It’s possible. The investigators never uncovered any evidence that would definitively prove that. But I think that’s a legitimate point.”
