Can He Take It Back? Lawyer Breaks Down Bryan Kohberger's Attempt to Withdraw Guilty Plea
The three-part series examines Kohberger’s background, digital evidence and the plea deal that spared him the death penalty.
- On Wednesday, July 29, 2026, Netflix released 'The Idaho Murders: College Nightmare,' a three-part documentary featuring unprecedented access to police footage and firsthand accounts from the victims' families.
- Former Washington State University doctoral student Bryan Kohberger was convicted of murdering Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin in November 2022 and is serving four consecutive life sentences.
- Earlier this week, Kohberger told The New York Times he filed a petition to rescind his guilty plea, claiming it was based on 'false promises' and 'blatant disinformation.'
- The families of all four victims sued Washington State University for damages, alleging the school remained idle regarding Kohberger's behavior; a jury trial is scheduled for September 13, 2027.
- Director Skye Borgman said the series aims to keep Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin 'at the centre of every decision' rather than focusing solely on the killer.
