MOSCOW, IDAHO: Bryan Kohberger, 28, the sole suspect for the murders of four University of Idaho students was arrested on December 30 at his parents' home in eastern Pennsylvania, more than 2,500 miles away from the town of Moscow. Since, then a lot of details have emerged linking Kohberger to the killings, mostly from the probable cause affidavit that was released on January 5. The affidavit revealed that Kohberger was in the area of the murders at least 12 times before the killings and that the suspect left behind a knife sheath at the crime scene with his DNA on it. The accused was also ‘seen’ by one of the survivors, Dylan Mortensen. Internet users who have been actively following the case are now wondering if Kohberger left a 'blood trail' between bedrooms as he killed the four victims.
On November 13, four University of Idaho students, Ethan Chapin, 20, Xana Kernodle, 20, Madison Mogen, 21, and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, were stabbed to death, in their off-campus rental home on King Road in Moscow, Idaho. Two of the roommates Bethany Funke and Dylan Mortensen survived the brutal attack. Suspect Kohberger, a PhD student who studied criminology at Washington State University, has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder and felony burglary. On January 12, Kohberger appeared in court and waived his right to a speedy preliminary hearing.

A Redditor was curious to know if Kohberger had left a "blood trail when traveling between bedrooms". "Curious about people’s opinion on how a suspect wouldn’t leave a blood trail, at least that we know of. Seems odd they’d call out a latent shoe print if there were shoe prints every where. I guess I initially thought a suspect could have worn coveralls of some sort and removed them upon leaving the house but that doesn’t solve the issue of a blood trail when traveling between bedrooms. Thoughts?," wrote the user.
Another user believed that Kohberger's feet were "pretty clean" speculating that Kohberger was "standing at the edge of a bed". "Honestly, I think his feet were probably pretty clean.. he's probably standing at the edge of a bed at least for 3 of the murders.. Blood might splatter on top, but if he doesn't move during, none will get on the bottom untill he walks away.. and even then, cast off blood doesnt leave 'pools' of it.. So its very likely there isn't full footprints but intead just partial.. and that probably came mostly from X and E as it seems like there was a struggle there and some talking ('i'll help you'). but otherwise I dont think there was much blood on BK as people think there was," wrote the user.
A user suggested that Kohberger "had blood on his hands and arms and upper body" and believed that its "possible to not have any blood on the floor". "I think people aren’t realistic about how much blood would be on the floor in a couple minutes. They victims were all in bed except for possibly Xana - people say she was on the floor but we haven’t seen any evidence of that. Most blood would be absorbed by the sheets and mattress. He possibly had blood on his hands and arms and upper body but it’s very possible to not have any blood on the floor, especially in the first few minutes after each murder," wrote the user.
While another user came up with a bizarre theory that Kohberger "showered there". "I heard in the beginning to check drains because he showered there. It sounded far fetched then but I don't know about now. Kinda seems like it could happen. Maybe plausible if he knew them, the survivors. Someone on here said this to me. Not sure if I can find it again but I asked this question about blood trail, footprints. I thought of one dude that made a sandwich and sat at the kitchen table eating it but he killed everyone in the house. I also thought of surgical scrubs and booties. In my opinion," wrote the user.
