While most of the case evidence remained sealed ahead of the anticipated trial, Judge Steven Hippler ordered that it could be unsealed after it was appropriately reviewed. Now, days after new documents were released by the Idaho State Police detailing their investigation, the agency has released hundreds of photographs from the crime scene.
The photographs focus on the interior and exterior of the house on King Road, where the four victims were killed. Cans, bottles and red plastic cups reveal a typical student home. A bag left on the counter marked with Xana’s name is a remnant from a food delivery the night of the murders. Photos are also included showing Kohberger’s white Hyundai Elantra, covered in dust and with its seats removed as investigators searched for evidence.
