New Texts Reveal Key Details from Night of Idaho Murders
April 29, 2025
Recent court documents have unveiled critical text messages exchanged between two surviving roommates in the aftermath of the tragic November 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students. These communications provide insight into the events leading up to the discovery of the victims.
On the morning of November 13, 2022, around 4 a.m., one roommate, referred to as D.M., texted her friend, B.F., expressing fear after seeing a man in a ski mask inside their shared residence. D.M. mentioned hearing noises and a male voice, and noted that her attempts to contact other roommates were unsuccessful. She described the intruder as having "bushy eyebrows" and wearing a mask.

In response, B.F. advised D.M. to retreat to her room. Despite the alarming encounter, police were not alerted until several hours later, raising questions about the delay in reporting. Mental health experts suggest that such reactions may be linked to common responses to traumatic events, including fight, flight, or freeze responses. (apnews.com)
The suspect, Bryan Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology PhD student at Washington State University, was arrested in December 2022 and charged with four counts of murder. Investigators have linked him to the crime scene through DNA evidence found on a knife sheath discovered near one of the victims. (apnews.com)
