Kaylee Goncalves' Mom Got Threatening Text at Kohberger Sentencing
LATAH COUNTY, IDAHO, JUL 25 – Bryan Kohberger received four consecutive life sentences without parole for the murders of four students, with victims' families delivering emotional impact statements at the hearing.
- On July 23, 2025, Bryan Kohberger was sentenced to four life terms without parole and burglary penalties at the Latah County Courthouse, where Maryann and Amanda Kohberger attended.
- Earlier this month, Kohberger took a plea deal to avoid the death penalty, changing his plea to guilty at a recent hearing, admitting the murders were deliberate and premeditated.
- In court, Maryann Kohberger shuddered and held her head in her hands, as Bryan Kohberger largely ignored his sobbing mother and sister and his other sister, Melissa, stayed away.
- During the hearing, Alivea Goncalves called him a `pathetic sociopath` and vowed `We will never stop fighting for her`, Judge Steven Hippler termed him a `faceless coward`, while she stared him down.
- Survivor Dylan Mortensen said she will live with the pain while Kohberger remains `empty, forgotten and powerless`, and he has been sent to the Idaho Department of Correction’s reception unit pending maximum-security placement, but families say justice brings no closure.
