Bryan Kohberger, an admitted quadruple murderer, stares straight-faced as grief-stricken parents, siblings, grandparents, and friends of the four slain University of Idaho students speak to the court through their victim impact statements.

Kaylee Goncalves’s sister confronts Kohberger in a stunning statement that moves the courtroom to applaud. Alivea Goncalves says to Bryan Kohberger, “My sister Kaylee and her best friend Maddie were not yours to take. They were not yours to study, to stalk, or to silence. They’re everything you could never be: loved, accepted, vibrant, accomplished, brave, and powerful.”

Kaylee’s father, Steve Goncalves, also directly addresses Kohberger, calling him a "joke" and saying, “The world's watching because of the kids, not because of you.” He also highlights how easily Kohberger was tracked down by police: despite all those A’s in school, he’s still so dumb.

Kohberger declines to address the court after listening to hours of powerful statements from victims’ families. He takes a last-minute plea, sparing him the death penalty. The judge ultimately sentences him to four consecutive life sentences.

Judge Steven Hippler calls Bryan Kohberger a “coward” who “slithered through the sliding glass door at 1122 King Road” and “now stands unmasked.”
