Watch: Bryan Kohberger's Signed Confession for All 4 Idaho Murders RevealedNearly three years after the Idaho murders, Bryan Kohberger is remaining silent. Before the 30-year-old was formally sentenced for killing University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin, Madison Mogen and Xana Kernodle in an off-campus home in November 2022, he told Judge Steven Hippler he "respectfully" declined to speak. Upon hearing this, a family member of one of the victims, said, per NBC News, "Surprise, surprise." Meanwhile, Judge Hippler also expressed disdain toward Kohberger, calling him the "worst of the worst." "Even in pleading guilty, he has given nothing hinting at remorse or redemption, nothing suggesting a recognition, an understanding or even a regret for the pain that he has caused," the judge said before sentencing Kohberger. "Therefore I will not attempt to speak about him further other than to simply sentencing him." Kohberger was given a life sentence-to be served consecutively-without the possibility of parole for each count of his four counts of first-degree murder, accompanied with a $50,000 fine for each count and a $5,000 civil penalty to be paid to the families of the victims. He was also sentenced to 10 years and imposed a fine of $50,000 on the count of burglary.readKaylee Goncalves' Parents Address Bryan Kohberger's "Sick, Twisted" Mind Amid his sentencing, family members of several of the victims made statements to the court, as well as surviving roommates, Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke. Earlier this month, Kohberger signed a confession to all four killings of students, as well as one count of burglary, just days after accepting a plea deal that removed the death penalty as a possible sentence in exchange for the inability to appeal or ask for a more lenient punishment. In his confession, the former criminology student chose to "hereby admit responsibility" for the "killing and murder" of the four victims, with the crimes characterized as "willful, unlawful, deliberate, with premeditation and with malice aforethought." He also admitted guilt to committing burglary by unlawfully entering the residence where the students' murders took place. Following news of his plea deal, the families of the four victims expressed mixed feelings. Chapin's family, including his parents Jim Chapin and Stacy Chapin, shared relief that the nearly three-year legal proceedings had finally come to an end.

Chapin's mother, for her part, agreed, though admitted it took a while for she and her husband-as well as their remaining children, Chapin's 22-year-old triplet siblings Hunter and Maizie-to come to terms with it all, especially considering the gruesome nature of the college students' deaths. "Our initial response was like, an eye for an eye," she added. "But we've spent a ton of time talking about it with prosecutors, and for us, we always felt like this was a better deal. He gets put away, and there's no appeal system to it. And there were so many kids, including our own, that had been subpoenaed that no longer have this hanging over their heads." Meanwhile, the Goncalves family were disappointed in the Idaho legal system's decision, saying it had "failed" their family after Kohberger's plea deal was announced. Indeed, Goncalves' parents, Kristi Goncalves and Steve Goncalves, admitted they had hoped to send a message when Kohberger's case went to trial. Zach Wilkinson-Pool/Getty Images"If you come after kids, people are going to put their foot down," Goncalves' father said during an appearance on Today July 18, "and they're going to do everything in their power to make sure that whoever did that it held to the highest accountability that there is." Still, the Goncalves family is trying to continue to move forward. "We're just trying to wrap our heads around this new development," her father added. "We're still a family, we still have to take care of ourselves. We're moving on." Although it might not have been the ideal outcome for everyone hurt by Kohberger's actions, the victims' families are finally getting some closure.
