Kohberger Victims' Families Sue WSU: Did the University Ignore 13 Warning Signs Before Idaho Murders?

Kohberger Victims' Families Sue WSU: Did the University Ignore 13 Warning Signs Before Idaho Murders?

Bryan Kohberger was a teaching assistant at Washington State University when he allegedly stalked, harassed, and terrorized women on campus. At least 13 formal complaints were filed against him. Staff created informal "911" alerts to warn each other when he was around. Women requested security escorts just to avoid interactions with him. One professor allegedly predicted that if WSU gave Kohberger a PhD, they'd hear about him harassing and sexually abusing students down the road. None of it stopped him. On November 13, 2022, Kohberger drove eight miles to Moscow, Idaho, and murdered Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Now the families of all four victims have filed a 126-page wrongful death lawsuit against WSU, alleging gross negligence, Title IX violations, and deliberate indifference to the danger Kohberger posed. They're arguing the murders were "foreseeable and preventable."

Today on True Crime Today, former prosecutor turned criminal defense attorney Eric Faddis breaks down the legal claims. What does the university have to prove in its defense? What will discovery expose? And could this lawsuit set a nationwide precedent for institutional liability when warning signs are ignored?
