The mother of one of the four University of Idaho murder victims is asking a court to block additional releases of images taken inside her bedroom during the investigation, according to authorities.

Madison Mogen, 21, and her best friend Kaylee Goncalves, also 21, were both found dead in her third-story bedroom at 1122 King Road, an off-campus rental house just steps from the school grounds.

Near her hip, left on her tan comforter was the tan leather Ka-Bar knife sheath that led police to their killer, 30-year-old failed criminologist Bryan Kohberger.

“While the temporary restraining order only applied to Madison Mogen’s bedroom, the city will not provide any further releases of photographs or videos depicting the inside of any of the victims’ bedrooms until the matter is fully reviewed and decided by the court,” Belknap added.

Laramie’s attorney, Leander James, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Marshall scheduled a hearing for 10 a.m. PT on Thursday.

Kohberger, a Ph.D. student of criminal justice and criminology 10 miles away at Washington State University, snuck into the house around 4 a.m. on Nov. 13, 2022. Prosecutors said he meticulously planned the attack, stalked the house beforehand and tried to conceal his movements before, during and after the crime. But they do not know his motive or who among the victims may have been his target.
