BOISE, ID (TDR) — Just over 24 hours after Bryan Kohberger confessed in court to the brutal murders of four University of Idaho students, The Idaho Student Murders premiered on Peacock, captivating audiences nationwide with its in-depth look at the case that shocked the nation.

The feature-length documentary, released July 3, 2025, chronicles the real-life nightmare that unfolded in the quiet college town of Moscow, Idaho. Through expert commentary and deeply personal accounts, the film sheds new light on a crime that still leaves many questions unanswered.

Inside the Tragedy

On Nov. 22, 2022, Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology graduate student living in Pullman, Washington, allegedly drove to a residence on King Road in Moscow. Prosecutors say he entered through a sliding kitchen door, clad in black and wearing a mask. Inside, he fatally stabbed Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves, both 21, before killing Xana Kernodle and her boyfriend Ethan Chapin, just moments after Xana received a DoorDash delivery.

Two other roommates survived the attack, hiding in fear as the horrifying events unfolded.

Kohberger was later arrested in Pennsylvania in December 2022. While he initially pleaded not guilty, his surprise guilty plea on July 2, 2025, brought the trial to a halt—infuriating the victims’ families, many of whom had hoped for answers.

Raw Emotion and Reflection

In The Idaho Student Murders, those closest to the victims share memories, heartache, and frustration.

“There’s no closure,” said Steven Goncalves, brother of Kaylee Goncalves. “As of now, I don’t really think I’ve begun the grieving or mourning process.”

As reported by Oxygen.com, the Goncalves family is “beyond furious” about Kohberger’s plea deal. Steven added, “I don’t think, for the crimes that were committed, that life in prison is even acceptable.”

Viewers will also hear from friends Kaylee McConkey, Ruby Simpson, Leah Sullivan, and Sophia Whitehead—each offering moving tributes to the four lives lost. Whitehead noted, “We just hope that people can get a better idea of who Maddie, Kaylee, Xana, and Ethan were as people.”
