Bryan Kohberger has admitted guilt in the slayings of four students at the University of Idaho. But the public still doesn't know what motivated Kohberger to commit the knife attacks and how he chose his victims in 2022.

Bryan Kohberger appeared expressionless as a judge asked if he murdered four Idaho college students in their off-campus home, answering “yes” to each name called out in the courtroom Wednesday.

During a hearing at the Ada County House on Wednesday, Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to killing four University of Idaho students after striking a plea deal with prosecutors. The families of the victims had mixed reactions to the agreement.
