Idaho prosecutors ask killer Bryan Kohberger be barred from contacting victims’ families for 99 years

Idaho prosecutors have requested that convicted quadruple murderer Bryan Kohberger be barred from contacting his victims’ families for nearly a 100 years, court documents show.

Prosecutors filed a request for the no contact order on July 17, arguing that since the 30-year-old confessed to the killings he should be kept from reaching out to anybody connected to his victims.

“This motion is based on the fact that Defendant has now entered guilty pleas to all offenses charged in the Indictment,” the motion, obtained by Fox News, read.

Kohberger is already blocked from contacting the victims’ families — Madison Mogen, 21, Ethan Chapin, 20, Kaylee Goncalves, 21, and Xana Kernodle, 20 — but that order is due to expire in January 2027.

The new motion asks that Kohberger be kept from “having any contact with the victims” for another 99 years.

That means Kohberger — who is expected to be sentenced to four life terms on Wednesday — would be blocked from victim contact until 2124.

Kohberger’s sentencing comes weeks after he accepted a controversial plea deal that landed him in prison for life without the possibility of parole, but spared him the death penalty he could have faced if found guilty at trial.

The deal left many divided, with some victims’ family members outraged that he was allowed to dodge a trial despite the mountains of evidence prosecutors had against him.

And while prosecutors laid out in bare detail how Kohberger methodically carried out the killings, no motive was provided — and the deal made no requirements that he had to explain why he did it.

Kohberger will have a chance to address the court before his sentencing, though it remains unclear whether he will say anything.

But insights into motive may begin to emerge in the coming weeks after an Idaho judge lifted a gag order preventing officials who investigated the murders from speaking to the public, while documents related to the investigation are also going to begin being released in the coming weeks.
