A portion of Bryan Kohberger’s stabbing spree can seemingly be heard in a newly released surveillance video from a home near the one shared by his victims in Moscow, Idaho.
A white car, matching the description of the convicted killer’s Hyundai Elantra, is seen driving down the street at 4:06 a.m., before turning around and heading back the way it came in the video, taken on November 12, 2022 and obtained by Fox News.
The clip then skips ahead to 4:17, when a dog can be heard barking aggressively, followed by what sounds like a woman yelling and whimpering, followed by a thud, as the dog continues to make noise. The dog is still barking at 4:20, when the car speeds off around the corner.
The contents of the tape are consistent to the ones mentioned in court documents as being from a security camera less than 50 feet from the Xana Kernodle’s room.
Kernodle, 21, is believed to have been the only one of the four victims — which include her boyfriend, Ethan Chapin, 20, and her roommates, Madison Mogen, 21, Kaylee Goncalves, 21 — who was awake when the attack began. Goncalves’ dog, Murphy, is believed to be the dog heard on the tape.

The University of Idaho marketing major, who had just received a Door Dash delivery at the time, suffered more than 50 mostly defensive wounds, according to court documents during her fight with “the suspect in the bedroom area, and was ultimately killed on the floor of the bedroom next to the bed.”
The students’ surviving roommates, Dylan Mortensen — who made eye contact with the intruder and heard the dog barking — and Bethany Funke began texting each other with concerns at 4:22.
