The grieving family of 21-year-old Kaylee Goncalves had to wait over a month before a suspect in her 2022 killing was arrested. Since then, they and the families of three other University of Idaho students killed at the same time have been forced to endure an agonizingly slow legal process,

His trial was scheduled to begin around Aug. 18. Prosecutors were seeking the death penalty for the 2022 murders of Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves.

B ryan Kohberger has agreed to plead guilty to all counts in the killings of four University of Idaho students, sparing him from the death penalty, according to a letter sent to victims' family members informing them of the plea deal.
