MOSCOW, IDAHO: An unsealed official document has reportedly revealed several shocking things about the Idaho murders suspect. An astonishing detail was one of the surviving roommates of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, and Xana Kernodle, who were killed with another friend Ethan Chapin, apparently saw a person matching the descriptions of Bryan Kohberger leaving the house in the early morning hours of November 13.

The information has given birth to numerous wild theories but a Reddit user has pointed to another startling point in the affidavit. According to the user, the 28-year-old suspect’s cellphone was off for hours after allegedly committing the crime. They shared, “On November 13th 12:36 (post murder his phone pinged at Kate’s Cup of Joe in WA and that is consistent with footage of his car driving by captured by a nearby chef store). Kate’s cup of Joe is near water (Snake River) where Bryan perhaps was going to get rid of the alleged murder weapon perhaps? THEN Bryan’s phone was last pinged near Johnson Idaho- over 2 hours away from his apartment and Moscow.”

The user added, “Then phone completely goes off radar for 3 hours 5:36 to 8:30 pm….. why did he shut off his phone again, the last time he did that was when he went to kill. My guess is he was getting rid of his clothing. Johnson happens to be right by Nez Perce National Forest- which is 4 million acres of land. I’m sure FBI is already searching this land but will it be impossible to find anything due to how vast this forest is?”

The Redditor noted places where the cellphone might have been around. The post mentioned Nez Perce National Forest in their post, which is spread across 4,000,000 acres of land. The Reddit user’s post also named Johnson, which is a reservoir, located in Franklin County and spread across 41.9 acres.

Meanwhile, the post received a lot of responses from other Reddit users too with one saying, “I mentioned this point to a friend also and suspect that he got rid of the evidence there. It will be very hard to find if so. He’s acting pretty confident and smug, which surprises me. If he was innocent you’d think he’d be tweaking out but he’s cool, calm, and collected. It’s gonna being long one.”

Another user commented, “Should have got a burner. Like who turns there phone off and on anyway? And can’t some devices be tracked been when ‘off’? I think someone else is involved. Dude kinda looks/acts like Ted Bundy, BK will probably be linked to other cases soon enough.” The third one suggested, “I think that he hid the knife somewhere, thinking that he would never be caught, and then could retrieve it for whatever reason. I also think that the 3 hour timeframe that he was off radar, he found a place to make a campfire, and burned the other evidence, and then maybe buried the ashes, or disposed of them in water/lake/pond/river/ or even a sewer. If they ever find anything other than the knife, I will dub him not only one of the most evil killers of my lifetime, but also the most stupid...considering that he was so 'educated' in this stuff.”
