Surviving roommate in Idaho massacre house says she saw the killer that night

Court documents reveal that the Idaho murder suspect Bryan Kohberger was heard and seen by a surviving roommate.

In an unsealed affidavit, a roommate identified as DM in court documents woke up at 4 am on November 13 to what she thought was the sound of her roommate, Kaylee Goncalves, playing with her dog on the third floor. She later thought she heard Goncalves saying, "there's someone here," causing DM to look out of her second-floor bedroom window. She then opened the door and heard crying from her other roommate's room, Xana Kernodle. DM says she heard someone saying, "it's okay, I'm going to help you."



A security camera on a home near Kernodle's bedroom, which is located around 50 feet away, captured some "distorted audio of what sounded like voices or a whimper followed by a loud thud" at 4:17 am, along with the sound of a dog barking. 

DM then says she saw a "figure clad in black clothing and a mask that covered the person's mouth and nose walking towards her." The male then walked past her as she stood "frozen" in shock. He walked by her and exited the building via the second floor's glass doors, DM said.

DM says she locked herself in her room, with a second female roommate sleeping through the attack. She described the man as 5'10" or taller, "not very muscular, but athletically built with bushy eyebrows."

A call was made to the police by a surviving roommate more than 7 hours after the attack.

Investigators claim that the man described by the roommate is the detained suspect Bryan Kohberger, who is charged with the murder of Goncalves, Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Ethan Chapin, as well as breaking and entering with intent to murder.

Kohberger was arrested on December 30 at his parents' Poconos house. He was pulled over twice with his father within a nine-minute time span on I-70 during a road trip from Washington State to Pennsylvania. One source told Fox News that the FBI had asked police to stop the Kohbergers to gather video images of Kohberger and his hands to make a case for the arrest. 

Kohberger was sent by plane back to Idaho after he agreed to be extradited from Pennsylvania. After being asked by Judge Margherita Worthington if he'd like to "waive the rights that I have just explained to you and return to the state of Idaho," Kohberger simply replied "yes." The judge would also pass a gag order to block investigators and lawyers from speaking about the case.
