You're listening to an iHeart Podcast. We have the return. Now, as all you legal eagles know, the judge had sealed the search warrant, the probable cause supporting the search warrant, and the return for Brian Koberger's apartment there at Steptoe Village in Pullman, Washington. But what exactly does it say? I'm Nancy Grace, and this is Crime Stories. Thanks for joining us. Let's carefully listen verbatim. Take a listen to CrimeOnline.com's Dave Mack. In the Superior Court of the State of Washington, in and for the County of Whitman,

in the matter of application for search warrant, SWNO 12-29-2022A, motion and order to unseal warrant return. Clerk's action required motion comes now the state of washington by and through dennis tracy whitman county prosecuting attorney and moves the court for an order to unseal the return of service of search warrant numbered swno 12-29-2022a pursuant to gr 15. Basis, these warrants were issued and served in Washington State because a suspect in the crimes resided and worked here during the time of the murders.

These warrants and associated applications were sealed due to the sensitive nature of the investigation at the time. Since then, an extensive probable cause affidavit has been unsealed in Latah County, Idaho, which has alleviated the need for sealing of the return of service here in Washington. Dated January 17, 2023. Presented by Dennis P. Tracy, prosecuting attorney. Order. It is ordered that the return of service of search warrant in this matter is hereby unsealed.

Dated the 17th day of January 2023. Judge Gary Leiby. In Superior Court of the State of Washington and for the County of Whitman in the matter of application for search warrant SWNO 12-29-2022A. Motion and order for original search warrant and search warrant applicationNO 12-29-2022A, motion and order for original search warrant and search warrant application to remain sealed, but a redacted version be provided for public release. Clerk's action required. Motion comes now. The state of Washington, by and through Dennis Tracy,

Whitman County prosecuting attorney, and moves the court for an order to keep sealed the search warrant and search warrant application numbered SWNO 12-29-2022A, but to allow the state to file redacted versions which replace the victim witnesses' names with initials pursuant to GR-15. Basis, the Washington state constitution recognizes that victims of crimes have rights and states that effective law enforcement depends on cooperation from victims of crime. The Washington state legislature has recognized that there is a severe and detrimental impact on crime victims, survivors of victims and witnesses of crimes and

the civic and moral duty of victims, survivors of victims and witnesses of crimes to fully and voluntarily page to cooperate with law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies. In a criminal proceeding, the law requires that a reasonable effort is made to ensure that victims, survivors of victims, and witnesses of crimes have the right to receive protection from harm and threats of harm arising out of cooperation with law enforcement and prosecution efforts. Washington courts have long acknowledged that a victim's initials can be substituted for their name.

See State v. Mansour. The basis for this motion is that there are two surviving victims' witnesses of a now notorious and much-publicized murder-burglary in Moscow, Idaho, whose full names are listed in this search warrant and search warrant application. These warrants were issued and served in Washington state because the suspect in the crimes resided and worked here during the time of the murders. These warrants and associated applications were sealed due to the sensitive nature of the investigation at that time. Since then, an extensive probable cause affidavit has been unsealed in Latah County, Idaho,

which has alleviated much of the need for sealing here in Washington. But the documents filed in Latah County have not disclosed the surviving victims' names, only their initials. These victims should have the level of protection that can be provided by having their initials substituted for their full names in the search warrants and search warrant applications which become publicly available from this court. The state is asking the court to consider the usual factors. One, showing of the need for sealing the records and where that need is based on a right other than an accused right to a fair trial, a serious and imminent threat to that right. Two, anyone present when motion is made must be given an opportunity to object to the closure three the proposed method for curtailing open access

must be the least restrictive means available for protecting the threatened interest four the court must weigh the competing interests of the proponent of closure and the public and five the order must be no broader in its application or duration than necessary to serve its purpose. The state contends that the need to protect victim identification is important to their safety, health, and well-being, and that victims' and witnesses' rights should be protected vigorously, just as the legislature and the state's founders intended. The proposed method is to file a complete search warrant and application for warrant with only surviving victims' names redacted and replaced

with initials. This is a very minor closure of a court document in order to protect a very important page three, victim interest. Finally, the order will be no broader in application than necessary to serve its purpose, and the public will still have the pertinent information at its disposal in order to understand the proceedings of the court dated January 17, 2023, presented by Dennis P. Tracy, prosecuting attorney. The order. It is ordered that search warrant and application for search warrant already filed in this matter shall remain sealed,

but the state shall immediately file redacted versions of those documents with the surviving victims' names redacted and replaced with initials dated the 17th day of January 2023, Judge Gary Leiby.

Supplemental Disclosures RE DNA Test

I have been informed by Detective J.R. Talbot of the Idaho State Police that 1. On November 13, 2022, a sheath was recovered at the King Road residence under or next to the body of Madison Mogan. The Idaho State Crime Lab obtained a male DNA profile, suspect profile, from the sheath. This is also referred to in Sergeant Blaker's sworn statement, Exhibit A. Page 6. 2. page 6 2 on december 27 2022 law enforcement agents slash officers in pennsylvania recovered trash that originated from the coberger family residence that trash was sent to the idaho state crime lab for testing on december 28 2022 the idaho state lab reported that a dna profile was

obtained from the trash it was compared to the suspect dna profile the lab personnel concluded that the source of the trash dna profile was a male and was not being excluded as the biological father of the source of the suspect profile at least 99.9998 of the male population would be expected to be excluded from the possibility of being the biological father of the source of the suspect profile. This information is being provided to the court pursuant to my duty and obligation to be fully candid with the court. I do not believe this information is exculpatory for the suspect however if the court believes it is exculpatory then the court should consider this supplemental disclosure in its evaluation of the existence of probable cause or lack thereof but i am specifically asking the court to not consider the supplemental disclosure as evidence supporting

the existence of probable cause the reason for this request is that if the DNA test results are held inadmissible at some point, such a ruling would not impact the finding of probable cause for this warrant, so long as this court is satisfied as to probable cause, regardless of the DNA test result. Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. Page 7. I certify under penalty of perjury under the laws of the state of Washington that the foregoing is true and correct. Signed, this 29th day of december 2022 at pullman washington declarant signature declarants full name don daniels agency badge serial or personnel number 302 agency name washington state university police department exhibit a statement of dustin bl page 1. The below information is provided by Sergeant Dustin Blaker. I am a duly appointed qualified and acting peace officer within the

county of Latah, state of Idaho. I am employed by Moscow Police Department in the official capacity or position of sergeant, and I have been a trained and qualified peace officer for approximately 22 years. I attended the Idaho Peace Officers Academy from January 2000 to March of 2000 and then completed a 16-week field training program where I was released in July of 2000. During my 16 years of law enforcement, I have attended additional training to include basic narcotics training, which trained me in handling high-level cases. I have conducted many search warrants, and I have assisted with previous homicide investigations while at the Moscow Police

Department. I am being assisted by other officers of the Moscow Police Department, members of the Idaho State Police, and agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. On November 13, 2022, at approximately 4 p.m., Moscow Police Department Corporal Brett Payne and I responded to 1122 King Road, Moscow, Idaho, hereafter the King Road residence, to assist with scene security and processing of a crime scene associated with four homicides. Upon our arrival, the Idaho State Police Forensic Team was on scene and was preparing to begin processing the scene. MPD officer Smith, one of the initial responding officers to the incident, advised he would walk

me through the scene. Officer Smith and I entered the King Road residence through the bottom floor door on the north side of the building. Officer Smith and I then walked upstairs to the second floor. Officer Smith directed me down the hallway to the west bedroom on the second floor, which I later learned, page two. Through Zanna's driver's license and other personal belongings found in the room was Zanna Kurnodal's, hereafter, Kurnodal Room. Just before this room, there was a bathroom door on the south wall of the hallway. As I approached the room, I could see a body, later identified as Cronodal's, laying on the floor.

Cronodal was deceased with wounds which appeared to have been caused by an edged weapon. Also in the room was a male, later identified as Ethan Chapin, hereafter Chapin. Chapin was also deceased, with wounds later determined. Autopsy report provided by Spokane County Medical Examiner Veena Singh, dated December 15, 2022, to be caused by, quote, sharp force injuries, unquote. I then followed Officer Smith upstairs to the third floor of the residence. The third floor consisted of two bedrooms and one bathroom. The bedroom on the third floor of the residence the third floor consisted of two bedrooms

and one bathroom the bedroom on the west side of the floor was later determined to be kaylee gonzalvez here after gonzalvez room i later learned from review of officer nunez body camera there was a dog in the room when moscow police officers initially responded the dog belonged to gonzalvez and her ex-boyfriend, Jack DeCour. I found out from Corporal Payne's interview with Jack DeCour on November 13, 2022, that he and González shared the dog. Officer Smith then pointed out a small bathroom on the east side of the third floor. This bathroom shared a wall with Madison Mogan's, hereafter Mogan Bedroom, which was situated on the southeast

corner of the third floor. As I entered this bedroom, I could see two females in the single bed in the room. Both Gonzávez and Mogan were deceased with visible stab wounds. I was later advised by ISP investigators they located a tan leather knife sheath laying on the bed next to Mogan's right side when viewed from the door. The sheath was later processed and had, quote, K-Bar, unquote, quote, USMC, unquote, and the United States Marine Corps Eagle globe and anchor insignia stamped on the outside of it. Page 3. The Idaho State Lab later located a single source of male DNA left on the button snap of the knife sheath. As part of the investigation, numerous interviews were conducted

by Moscow Police Department officers, Idaho State Police detectives, and FBI agents. Two of the interviews included redacted BF, hereafter BF, and Redacted DM, hereafter DM. Both Redacted BF and Redacted DM were inside the King Road residence at the time of the homicides and were roommates to the victims. Redacted BF bedroom was located on the east side of the first floor of the King Road residence. Based on numerous interviews conducted by MPD officers, ISP detectives, and FBI agents, as well as my review of evidence, I have learned the following. On the evening of November 12, 2022, Chapin and Cronodal are seen by redacted BF at the Sigma Chi House on the University of Idaho campus at 735

Nez Perce Drive from approximately 9 p.m. Redacted BF also stated that Chapin did not live in the King Road residence but was a guest of Cronodal. Gonzávez and Mogan were at a local bar, the Corner Club, at 202 North Main Street in Moscow. González and Mogan can be seen on video footage provided by the Corner Club between 10 p.m. on November 12 and 1.30 a.m. on November 13. At approximately 1.30 a.m., González and Mogan can be seen on video at a local food vendor called The Grub Truck at 318 South Main Street in downtown Moscow. The Grub Truck live streams video from their food truck on the streaming platform Twitch, which is available for public viewing on their website.

This video was captured by law enforcement. A private party reported that he provided a ride to page 4. González and Mogan at approximately 1 56 a.m. from downtown Moscow in front of the grub truck to the King Road residence. Redacted DM and redacted BF both made statements during interviews that indicated the occupants of the King Road residence were at home by 2 a.m. and asleep or at least in their rooms by approximately 4 a.m. This is with the exception of Kernodle, who received a DoorDash order at the residence at approximately 4 a.m. Law enforcement identified the DoorDash delivery driver who reported this information. Redacted DM stated she originally went to sleep in her bedroom on the southeast side of the second floor. Redacted DM stated that she was awoken at approximately 4 a.m.

by what she stated sounded like Gonzávez playing with her dog in one of the upstairs bedrooms, which are located on the third floor. A short time later, redacted DM said she heard who she thought was González say something to the effect of, quote, there's someone here, unquote. A review of records obtained from a forensic download of Cronodal's phone showed this could have been Cronodal,

as her cellular phone indicated she was likely awake and using the TikTok app at approximately 4.12 a.m. Redacted DM stated she looked out of her bedroom but did not see anything when she heard the comment about someone being in the house. Redacted DM stated she opened her door a second time when she heard what she thought was crying coming from kernettles room redacted DM then said she heard a male voice say something to the effect of quote it's okay I'm going to help you unquote page 5 at approximately 4 17 a.m. a security camera located at 112 King Road, a residence immediately to the northwest of 1122 King Road,

picked up distorted audio of what sounded like voices or a whimper followed by a loud thud. A dog can also be heard barking numerous times starting at 4.17 a.m. The security camera is less than 50 feet from the west wall of cronotals bedroom redacted dm stated she opened her door for the third time after she heard the crying and saw a figure clad in black clothing and a mask that covered the person's mouth and nose walking towards her redacted dm described the figure as 5 foot 10 inches or taller male not very muscular but athletically built with bushy eyebrows the male walk past redacted DM as she stood in a frozen shock phase the male walked towards the

back sliding glass door redacted DM locked herself in her room after seeing the mail this leads investigators to believe that the murderer left the scene the combination of redacted dm statements to law enforcement reviews of forensic downloads of records from redacted bf and redacted dm phone and video of a suspect vehicle as described below leads investigators to believe the homicides occurred between 4 a.m and 4 25 a.m during the processing of the crime scene investigators found a latent shoe print this was located during the second processing of the crime scene by isp forensic team by first using a presumptive blood test and then amino black a protein stain that detects the presence of cellular material the detected

shoe print showed a diamond shaped pattern similar to the pattern of a Vans-type shoe sole just outside the door of redacted DM bedroom located on page six, second floor. This is consistent with redacted DM statement regarding the suspect's path of travel. As part of the investigation, an extensive search commonly referred to in law enforcement as a, quote, video canvas, unquote, was conducted in the area of the King Road residence. This video canvas was to obtain any footage from the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, in the area of the King Road residence and surrounding neighborhoods in an effort to locate the suspect, suspects, or suspect vehicle, vehicles,

traveling to or leaving from the King Road residence. This video canvas resulted in the collection of numerous surveillance videos in the area from both residential and business addresses. I have reviewed numerous videos that were collected and have had conversations with the other MPD officers, ISP detectives, and FBI agents that are similarly reviewing footage that was obtained. A review of camera footage indicated that a white sedan, hereafter Suspect Vehicle 1, was observed traveling westbound in the 700 block of Indian Hills Drive in Moscow

at approximately 3.26 a.m. and westbound on Steiner Avenue at Idaho State Highway 95 in Moscow at approximately 3.28 a.m. On this video, it appeared suspect vehicle 1 was not displaying a front license plate. A review of footage from multiple videos obtained from King Road neighborhood showed multiple sightings of suspect vehicle 1 starting at 3.29 a.m. and ending at 4 3 29 a.m and ending at 4 20 a.m these sightings show suspect vehicle one makes an initial three passes by the 1122 king road residence and then leave via walenta drive based off of my experience as a patrol officer this is a residential neighborhood with a very limited number of vehicles that travel in the area during the early morning hours upon review of the video there are only a few cars that enter and exit this area during this

time frame. Page 7. Suspect Vehicle 1 can be seen entering the area a fourth time at approximately 4.04 a.m. It can be seen driving eastbound on King Road, stopping and turning around in front of 500 queen road number 52 and then driving back westbound on king road when suspect vehicle 1 is in front of the king road residence it appeared to unsuccessfully attempt to park or turn around in the road the vehicle then continued to the intersection of queen road and king road where it can be seen completing a three-point turn and then driving eastbound again down queen road suspect vehicle one is next seen departing the area of the king road residence at approximately 4 20 a.m at a high rate of speed suspect vehicle one is next observed traveling southbound on

walenta drive based on my knowledge of the area and review of camera footage in the neighborhood that does not show suspect vehicle 1 during that time frame. I believe the suspect vehicle 1 likely exited the neighborhood at Palouse River Drive and Conestoga Drive. Palouse River Drive is not the southern edge of Moscow and proceeds into Whitman County, Washington. Eventually, the road leads to Pullman, Washington. Pullman, Washington is approximately 10 miles from Moscow, Idaho. Both Pullman and Moscow are small college towns, and people commonly travel back and forth between them. Law enforcement officers provided video footage of suspect vehicle 1 to forensic examiners with the Federal Bureau of Investigation that regularly utilized surveillance footage to identify the year, make, and model

of an unknown vehicle that is observed by one or more cameras during the commission of a criminal offense. The forensic examiner has approximately 35 years law enforcement experience vehicle that is observed by one or more cameras during the commission of a criminal offense. The forensic examiner has approximately 35 years law enforcement experience with 12 years at the FBI. His specific training includes identifying unique characteristics of vehicles and he uses a database that gives visual clues of vehicles across states to identify differences between vehicles. Page 8. After reviewing the numerous observances of suspect vehicle 1, the forensic examiner initially believed that suspect vehicle 1 was a 2011-2013 Hyundai Elantra. Upon further review, they indicated it could also be a 2011-2016 Hyundai

Elantra. As a result, investigators have been reviewing information on persons in possession of a vehicle that is a 2011 to 2016 white Hyundai Elantra. Investigators were given access to video footage on the Washington State University WSU campus located in Pullman, Washington. WSU maintains a series of surveillance cameras on and near its campus. A review of that video indicated that at approximately 2.44 a.m. on November 13, 2022, a white sedan, which was consistent with the description of the white Elantra known as Suspect Vehicle 1, was observed on WSU surveillance cameras

traveling north on Southeast Nevada Street at Northeast Stadium Way. At approximately 2.53 a.m., a white sedan, which is consistent with the description of the white Elantra known as Suspect Vehicle 1, was observed traveling southeast on Nevada Street in Pullman, Washington, towards State Road 270. State Road 270 connects Pullman, Washington to Moscow, Idaho. This camera footage from Pullman, Washington was provided to the same FBI forensic examiner. The forensic examiner identified the vehicle observed in Pullman, Washington as being a 2014 to 2016 Hyundai Elantra. At approximately 5.25 a.m., a white sedan, which was consistent with the description of suspect vehicle 1,

was observed on five cameras in Pullman, Washington and on WSU campus cameras. The first camera that recorded the white sedan was located at 1300 Johnson Road in Pullman. The white sedan was observed traveling northbound on Johnson Road. Johnson Road leads directly back to West Palouse River Drive in Moscow, which intersects with Conestoga Drive. The white sedan was then observed turning north on Bishop Boulevard and northwest on State Road 270. At approximately 5.27 a.m., the White Elantra was observed on cameras traveling, page 9, northbound on Stadium Way at Nevada Street, Stadium Way at Grimes Way, Stadium Drive at Wilson Road, and Stadium Way at Cougar Way.

On November 25, 2022, MPD asked area law enforcement agencies to be on the lookout for White Hyundai Elantras in the area. at approximately 1228 a.m. Washington State University WSU police officer Daniel Tiango queried why Delantra is registered at WSU. As a result of that query, he located a 2015 white Elantra with a Pennsylvania license plate LFZ-8649. This vehicle was registered to Brian Koberger, hereafter Koberger, residing at 1630 Northeast Valley Road, Apartment 201, Pullman, Washington.

1630 Northeast Valley Road is approximately three-quarters of a mile from the intersection of Stadium Way and Cougar Way, last camera location that picked up the white Elantra. Page 11. That same day, at approximately 12.58 a.m., WSU officer Curtis Whitman was looking for white Hyundai Elantras and located a 2015 white Hyundai Elantra at 1630 Northeast Valley Road in Pullman in the parking lot.

1630 Northeast Valley Road is an apartment complex that houses WSU students. Officer Whitman also ran the car, and it returned to Coburger with a Washington tag. I reviewed Coburger's Washington State driver's license information and photograph. This license indicates the Koberger is a white male with a height of six feet and weighs 185 pounds. Additionally, the photograph of Koberger shows that he has bushy eyebrows. Koberger's physical description is consistent with the description of the male redacted DM saw inside the King Road residence on November 13th. Further investigation, including a review of Latah County Sheriff's Deputy Corporal Duke's body cam and reports, showed that on August 21st, 2022,

Brian Coburger was detained as part of a traffic stop that occurred in Moscow, Idaho by Corporal Duke. At the time, Coburger, who was the sole occupant, was driving a white 2015 Hyundai Elantra with Pennsylvania plate LFZ-8649, which was set to expire on November 30, 2022. During the stop, which was recorded via a law enforcement body camera, Koberger provided his phone number as 509-592-8458, hereafter the 8458 phone as his cellular telephone number. Investigators conducted electronic database queries and learned that the 8458 phone is a number issued by AT&T. On October 14, 2022,

Brian Koberger was detained as part of a traffic stop by a WSU police officer. Upon review of that body cam and report of the stop, Koberger was the sole occupant and was driving a white 2015 Hyundai Elantra with Pennsylvania plate LFC-8649. Page 12. On November 18, 2022, according to Washington State Licensing, Koberger registered the 2015 white Elantra with Washington and later received Washington plate CFB-8708. Prior to this time, the 2015 white Elantra was registered in Pennsylvania, which does not require a front license plate to be displayed. This was learned through communications with a Pennsylvania officer

who is currently certified in the state of Pennsylvania. Based on my own experience and communication with Washington law enforcement, I know that Idaho and Washington require front and back license plates to be displayed. Investigators believe that Koberger is still driving the 2015 white Elantra because his vehicle was captured on December 13, 2022, by a license plate reader in Loma, Colorado, information provided by a query to a database. Koberger's Elantra was then queried on December 15, 2022,

by law enforcement in Hancock County, Indiana. On December 16, 2022, at approximately 2.26 p.m., surveillance video showed Koberger's Elantra in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania. The sole occupant of the vehicle was a white male whose description was consistent with Koberger. Koberger has family in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania, learned through TLO, which is a search and locate tool database query used by law enforcement.

Based on information provided on the WSU website, Koberger is currently a PhD student in criminology at Washington State University. Pursuant to records provided by a member of the interview panel for Pullman Police Department, we learned that Koberger's past education included undergraduate degrees in psychology and cloud-based forensics. records also showed coberger wrote an essay when he applied for an internship with the pullman police department in the fall of 2022. coberger wrote in his essay he had an interest in assisting rural law enforcement agencies with how to better collect and analyze technological data in public safety operations coberger also posted a Reddit survey, which can be found by page 13,

an open source internet search. The survey asked for participants to provide information to, quote, understand how emotions and psychological traits influence decision-making when committing a crime, unquote. As part of this investigation, law enforcement obtained search warrants to determine cellular devices that utilize cellular towers in close proximity to the King Road residence on November 13, 2022, between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. After determining that Koberger was associated to both the 2015 White Elantra and the 8458 phone, investigators reviewed these search warrant returns. A query of the 8458 phone in these returns did not show the 8458 phone utilizing cellular tower resources in close proximity to the King Road residence between

3 a.m. and 5 a.m. Based on my training, experience, and conversations with law enforcement officers that specialize in the utilization of cellular telephone records as part of investigations, individuals can either leave their cellular telephone at a different location before committing a crime or turn their cellular telephone off prior to going to a location to commit a crime. This is done by subjects in an effort to avoid alerting law enforcement that a cellular device associated with them was in a particular area where a crime is committed. I also know that on numerous occasions, suspects will surveil an area where they intend to commit a crime prior to the date of the crime. Depending on the circumstances, this could be done a few days before or for several months prior to the commission of a crime.

During these types of surveillance, it is possible that an individual would not leave their cellular telephone at a separate location or turn it off since they did not plan to commit the offense on that particular day. Page 14. On December 23, 2022, Corporal Payne applied for and was granted a search warrant for historical phone records between November 12, 2022 at 12 a.m. and November 14 at 12 a.m. for the 8458 phone held by the phone provider AT&T, approximately 24 hours preceding and following the times of the homicides. On December 23, 2022, pursuant to that search warrant, Corporal Payne received records for the 8458 phone from AT&T. These records indicated that the 8458 phone is subscribed to Brian Koberger

at an address in Albrightville, Pennsylvania, and the account has been open since June 23, 2022. These records also included historical cell site location information, CSLI, for the 8458 phone. After receiving this information, MPD consulted with an FBI special agent, SA, that is certified as a member of the cellular analysis survey team cast members of cast are certified with the fbi to provide expert testimony in the field of historical csli and are required to pass extensive training that includes both written and practical examinations prior to be certified with cast as well as the completion of yearly certification requirements. Additionally, the FBI CAST essay that I consulted with has over 15 years of federal law enforcement experience,

which includes six years with the FBI. From information provided by CAST, investigators were able to determine estimated locations for the 8458 phone from November 12, 2022 to November 13, 2022, the time period authorized by the court. On November 13, 2022, at approximately 2.42 a.m., the 8458 phone was utilizing cellular resources that provided coverage to 1630 Northeast Valley Road, Apartment G201, Pullman, Washington, hereafter the Coburger residence. At approximately 2.47 a.m., the 8458 phone utilized cellular resources that provide coverage southeast of the Coburger residence, consistent with the 8458 phone leaving the Coburger residence and traveling south through Pullman, Washington. This is consistent with the movement of the White Elantra.

At approximately 2.47 a.m., the 8458,8 page 15 phone stops reporting to the network which is consistent with either the phone being in an area without cellular coverage the connection to the network is disabled such as putting the phone in airplane mode or the phone is turned off the 8458 phone does not report to the network again until approximately 4 48 a.m at which time it utilized cellular resources that provide coverage to idaho state highway 95 south of moscow idaho near blaine idaho town north of genesee between 4 50 a.m and 5 26 a.m the phone utilizes cellular resources that are consistent with the 8458 phone traveling south on Idaho State Highway 95 to Genesee, Idaho, then traveling west towards Uniontown, Idaho, and then north back into

Pullman, Washington. At approximately 5.30 a.m., the 8458 phone is utilizing resources that provide coverage to Pullman, Washington and consistent with the phone traveling back to the Coburger residence. The 8458 phone's movements are consistent with the movements of the white Elantra that is observed traveling north on Stadium Drive at approximately 527 a.m. Based on a review of the 8458 phone's estimated locations and travel, the 8458 phone's travel is consistent with that of the white Elantra. Further review indicated that the 8458 phone utilized cellular resources on November 13, 2022 that are consistent with the 8458 phone leaving the area of the Coburger residence at approximately 9 a.m.

and traveling to Moscow, Idaho. Specifically, the 8458 phone utilized cellular resources that would provide coverage to the King Road residence between 9.12 a.m. and 9.21 a.m. The 8458 phone next utilized cellular resources that are consistent with the 8458 phone traveling back to the area of the Coburger residence and arriving to that area at approximately 9.32 a.m. Crime Stories with Nancy Grace Page 16 Below is a depiction not to scale of the possible route taken based off of cellular site locations. Investigators found that the 8458 phone did connect to a cell phone tower that provides service to Moscow on November 14, 2022,

but investigators do not believe the 8458 phone was in Moscow on that date. The 8458 phone has not connected to any towers that provide service to moscow since that date based on my training experience and the facts of the investigation thus far i believe that coberger the user of the 8458 phone was likely the driver of the white elantra that is observed departing pullman washington and that this vehicle is likely suspect vehicle one. Additionally, the route of travel of the 8458 phone during the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, and the lack of the 8458 phone reporting to AT&T between 2.47 a.m. and 4.48 a.m. is consistent with,

page 17, Koberger attempting to conceal his location during the quadruple homicide that occurred at the King Road residence. On December 23, 2022, I was granted a search warrant for Koberger's historical CSLI from June 23, 2022 to current, prospective location information and a pen register slash trap and trace on the 8458 phone to aid in efforts to determine if Koberger stalked any of the victims in the case prior to the offense conducted surveillance on the King Road residence was in contact with any of the victims associates before or after the alleged offenses any locations that may contain evidence of the murders that occurred on November 13, 2022 the location of

the White Elantra registered to Koberger as well as the location of Koberger on December 13, 2022, the location of the White Elantra registered to Koberger as well as the location of Koberger. On December 23, 2022, pursuant to that search warrant, investigators received historical records for the 8458 phone from AT&T from the time the account was opened in June 2022. After consulting with CastSA, investigators were able to determine estimated locations for the 8458 phone from June 2022 to present, the time period authorized by the court. The records for the 8458 phone show the 8458 phone utilizing cellular resources that provide coverage to the area of 1122 King Road on at least 12 occasions prior to November 13, 2022. All of these occasions, except for one, occurred in the late evening and early morning hours of their respective days.

One of these occasions, on August 21, 2022, the 8458 phone utilized cellular resources providing coverage to the King Road residents from approximately 10.34 p.m. to 11.35 p.m. At approximately 11.37 p.m. Koberger was stopped by Latah County Sheriff's Deputy Corporal Duke as mentioned above the 8458 phone was utilizing cellular resources consistent with the location of the traffic stop during this time farm road at Pullman highway page 18 further

analysis of the cellular data provided showed the 8458 phone utilized cellular resources on November 13, 2022, consistent with the phone traveling from Pullman, Washington to Lewiston, Idaho via U.S. Highway 195. At approximately 1236 p.m., the 8458 phone utilized cellular resources that would provide coverage to Kate's Cup of Joe coffee stand located at 810 Port Drive Clarkston Washington surveillance footage from the U.S. Chef's store located at 820 Port Drive Clarkston Washington and adjacent to Kate's Cup of Joe showed a white Elantra consistent with suspect vehicle one drive past Kate's cup of Joe at a time consistent with the cellular data from the 8458 phone. At approximately 1246, the 8458 phone then utilized cellular data in the area of the Albertsons grocery store at 400 Bridge Street in Clarkston, Washington. Surveillance

footage obtained from the Albertsons showed Koberger exit the White Elantra consistent with suspect vehicle 1 at approximately 12.49 p.m. Interior surveillance cameras showed Koberger walk through the store, purchase unknown items at the checkout, and leave at approximately 1.04 p.m. Koberger's possible path of travel is depicted below, not to scale. On page 19, additional analysis of records for the 8458 phone indicated that between approximately 532 and 536 p.m., the 8458 phone utilized cellular resources that provide coverage to Johnson, Washington. The 8458 phone then stops reporting to the network from approximately 536 p.m. to 830 p.m. That is consistent with the 8458 phone being in the area that the 8458 phone traveled in the hours immediately

following the suspected time the homicides occurred. The King Road residence contained a significant amount of blood from the victims, including spatter and cast-off, bloodstain pattern resulting from blood drops released from an object due to its motion, which, based on my training makes it likely that this evidence was transferred to coberger's person clothing or shoes based on the locations of the suspect vehicle and the 8458 phone immediately following the murders it is

probable that coberger went home to his residence at 1630 Northeast Valley Road, G201. At that time, it is likely that he still had blood or other trace evidence on his person, clothes, shoes, including skin cells or hair from, page 20, the victims or from Gonzalves' dog. It is likely that some trace evidence was transferred to areas in his apartment through contact with the items worn during the attack. One likely location for the clothes, mask, shoes that he was wearing during the attack would be his residence. While I believe Koberger is visiting family in Pennsylvania over the current school break at WSU, I believe he intends to return for the start of the next semester, so I expect his belongings to still be in his residence at 1630 Northeast Valley Road, G201.

To date, we have not recovered the weapon used in the homicides, which would indicate that he took it with him from the scene. Based on my training, that weapon will likely contain trace evidence on it, such as blood or skin or hair from the crime scene one likely location for the weapon or any sheath for the weapon would be his residence based on my training and experience when someone plans an event or action one likely location for doing so is in their residence or office one would not want to conduct such planning in public if they are planning a criminal act and so it is even more likely that planning of a criminal act would be done in one's residence or

office these murders appear to have been planned rather than a crime that happened in a moment of conflict i believe it likely that coberger planned his actions ahead of time the plans may have included a review of other murders or violent assaults, stabbings, and or cutting of people, as well as how to avoid detection after the commission of such crimes, details of the 1122 King Road residence, its location slash neighborhood, and or information about one or more of the victims, Ethan Chapin, Kayla Gonzávez zanna cronodle madison mogan redacted bf and or redacted dm further based on my training and experience criminals utilize electronic digital devices as well as paper or other media in conducting planning of crimes just as non-criminals use

various media to plan activities therefore there is probable cause to believe that digital devices were used page 21 and or are being used in furtherance of the listed crime crimes or to avoid detection for the listed crimes and likely contain evidence of the listed name crimes evidence of the crimes described in this application could be contained in any type of digital device the terms digital device and device include all devices capable of capturing and or storing digital data such as computers digital cameras modems routers external memory drives thumb drives cellular telephones gps navigation devices etc data stored on digital devices and media can be easily transferred from one device or storage media

to another forensic experts and others with the experience in retrieving and analyzing digital data have established the following digital devices typically retain some evidence of all activity taken via the device or associated media, and, as such, could contain evidence of crime. For example, data, whether stored intentionally or unintentionally, can contain evidence of knowledge, intent, efforts to conceal, sell, or dispose of evidence or proceeds of criminal activity, accomplice identity, association with victims, or geographic

location of the device possessor at particular dates and times. This information can be in numerous forms, such as photographs, address books, or contact lists, or communications with others through means such as phone calls, email, instant messaging, social media, chat sessions, or other digital communications. Evidence can remain on the device or media for indefinite periods of time after the communication originally took place, even if deleted by the user. Information deleted by the user may be recovered by a forensic examiner throughout the working lifespan of the device.

Digital data can be found in numerous locations and formats. Evidence can be embedded into unlikely files for the type of evidence, such as a photo included in a document or page 22, converted into a PDF file or other format in an effort to conceal their existence. Information on devices and media can be stored in random order, with deceptive file names, hidden from normal view encrypted or password protected and stored on unusual devices for the type of data such as routers printers scanners game consoles or other devices that are similarly capable of storing digital data wholly apart from

user generated files and data digital devices and media typically store often without any conscious action by the user electronic evidence pertaining to virtually all actions taken on the digital device and often information about the geographic location at which the device was turned on and or used this data includes logs of device use records of the creation modification del, deletion, and or sending of files, and uses of the internet, such as uses of social media, websites, and internet searches slash browsing. Device-generated data also includes information regarding the user identity at any particular date and time, usage logs, and information pertaining to the physical location of the

device over time, pointers to outside storage locations such as cloud storage or devices to which data may have been removed and information about how that off-site storage is being used if the device is synced with other devices it will retain a record of that action digital device users typically do not erase or delete this evidence because special software or use of special settings are usually required for the task however it is technically possible to delete this information digital devices can also reveal clues to other locations at which evidence may be found for example digital devices often maintain logs of connected digital or remote storage devices a scanner or printer may store information that would identify the digital device with which it was used forensic examinations at the device can often

reveal those other locations where evidence may be present page 23 as with other types of evidence the context location and data surrounding information in the device data is often necessary to understand whether evidence falls within the scope of the warrant. This type of information will be important to the forensic examiner's ability to piece together and recognize evidence of the above listed crimes. Digital device programs frequently require passwords, phrases, codes, patterns, fingerprints, and or usernames to operate.

Those may be kept inside a device slash media or outside in some other area known to the user. So, in addition to searching a digital device and media for evidence of the above-listed crime crimes, investigators will need to search both the premises searched and the digital device or devices for this information. The forensic examiner may also need the following items in order to conduct a thorough and accurate search of the devices. Computer hardware, software, peripherals, internal or external storage devices, power supplies, cables, internet connection, and use information, security devices, software, manuals, and related material. Modern digital devices and media can contain many gigabytes and even terabytes of data. Due to the potential for an extremely large volume of data contained in devices and media and the fact that evidence can be stored and located in unanticipated locations or formats

and or embedded in other items stored on the device media, investigators typically need to use specialized equipment in their search such large volumes of data also mean that searches can take days or even weeks to complete for these reasons i request authority to remove from the search location all digital devices and media that could contain evidence authorized for seizure under the warrant for subsequent search. Page 24. I also request authority to obtain assistance from a technical specialist to review the digital device, devices, and digital media for the best and least intrusive method of securing digital evidence that this warrant authorizes for seizure and to assist in securing such evidence.

Based on all the foregoing information, there is probable cause to believe that evidence of the above-listed crimes exists in the below-described digital devices and that there is probable cause to seize and search those devices for evidence of the above crimes for the data range August 21, 2022

to 11.59 p.m. on November 14, 2022, including evidence of other accounts associated with this device, including email addresses, social media accounts, messaging app accounts, and other accounts that may be accessed through the digital device that will aid in determining the possessor slash user of the device photographs images videos documents and related data created access read modified received stored sent moved deleted or otherwise manipulated between the above dates evidence of use of the device to conduct internet searches relating to a review of other murders or violent assaults slash stabbings and or cutting of people as well as how to avoid detection after the

Information that can be used to calculate the position of the device between the above dates, including location data, GPS satellite data, GPS coordinates for routes and destination queries between the above listed dates, app data or usage information, and related location information, IP logs or similar

internet connection information, and page 25, images created, accessed, or modified between the above listed dates together with their metadata and ex if tags evidence of the identity of the person in possession of the device on or about any times that items of evidentiary value located pursuant to this warrant were created modified accessed or otherwise manipulated such evidence may be found in digital communications photos and, and associated metadata, IP logs, documents, social media activity, and similar data. Based on ISP investigators' view of the apartment on December 27, 2022, I know that 1630 Northeast Valley Road is a three-story multiple occupancy apartment building in Pullman, Washington, which is tan and white in color. Apartment G201 is located on the northeast corner of the second story of this building.

The door to G201 is located on the east side of the second story landing and is designated by the numbers 201 on the door. The door is white with the swinging screen door on the outside of the main door to the residence. Koberger has been identified as the occupant of this apartment on leasing documents obtained via subpoena as part of the investigation. Investigators have been informed via the postal inspector that Koberger is the only person receiving mail at apartment G201. This leads investigators to believe he is the sole occupant. Page 26. Based on all of the above information, I conclude that there is a probability

that Koberger committed the four murders at the King Road residence. I have probable cause to believe evidence of the crimes committed at the King Road residence will be found at Koberger's residence located at 1630 Northeast Valley Road, Apartment G201, Pullman, Washington. I have probable cause to believe that Brian Koberger committed the crimes of murder, first degree, Idaho Code 18-4001, 4002, 4003, 4004, in four counts, and burglary, IC 18-1401 and 1403, all felonies mr coberger has been charged with the above offenses in latah county idaho based on all of the above information i am seeking a search warrant for the
