Days after transcripts were released, Idaho news agencies obtained the recording of the 911 call made by the surviving roommates of the University of Idaho murders on November 13, 2022.

Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin, Madison Mogen, and Kaylee Goncalves were found stabbed to death on that morning. The two surviving roommates called friends over after a disturbing night that included one of them reporting seeing a man in a ski mask in the house. They texted their roommates and received no response, and just before noon, they realized something was desperately wrong.

Transcripts of the 911 calls as well as the text messages between the surviving roommates were released last week, as CrimeOnline reported, when previously sealed motions were unsealed by the court. On Friday, media outlets got the recordings themselves, which they’d long sought.

The chaos and fear is palpable in the recording as the dispatcher tries to get information, while the roommates pass the phone around, sometimes to the frustration of the dispatcher.

The call ends when Moscow Police officers arrive on the scene.

Bryan Kohberger, a graduate student at nearby Washington State University, was ultimately arrested and charged with the crimes. He was taken into custody at his parents home in Pennsylvania, where he had gone for the Christmas holiday, and extradited to Idaho to stand trial.

His attorneys have used the 911 call as one of their many attempts to have the indictment against their client tossed out, claiming that it should not have been played for the grand jury. The judge overseeing the case dismissed that motion.

Kohberger’s trial is set to begin in August.
