Man Accused Of Killing Four Idaho University Students Ate At Restaurant Where Two Of The Victims Worked

The man accused of killing four Idaho University students allegedly ate at the restaurant where two of the victims worked, weeks before they were slain.

A former employee at the Mad Greek Restaurant in Moscow, Idaho testifying, said Bryan Kohberger came in at least twice to get vegan pizza. Madison Mogen and Xana Kernodle, two of the victims, worked as servers at the eatery.

However, It’s not clear if any of the ladies ever waited on Kohberger, or if they ever interacted, but sources confirmed that a now-deleted account that appeared to belong to Kohberger was Instagram follower to both Mogen and Kernodle, along with the third female murder victim, Kaylee Goncalves.

An investigator familiar with the case confirmed, that law enforcement is aware of the restaurant visits and that investigators have interviewed employees and owners of the Mad Greek. They have also collected surveillance video from the restaurant and surrounding businesses.

The former employee disclosed to a news source that there was nothing suspicious about Kohberger’s visits to the Mad Greek. The source said he only stood out because he had a peculiar order: a strict vegan, Kohberger always ensured that his food had not come into contact with animal products.

An investigator familiar with the case confirmed that two weeks before the slayings of the four Idaho students last November, the man now accused of killing them had sent a series of Instagram messages to one of the victims.

Towards the end of October, an account believed to belong to Bryan Kohberger sent a greeting to one of the female victims, the source says. When there was no response, he sent several more messages to her.

“He slid into one of the girls’ DMs several times but she didn’t respond,” the source said. “Basically, it was just him saying, ‘Hey, how are you?’ But he did it again and again.”

Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were all stabbed to death in a rental home, off campus in Moscow, Idaho, on Nov. 13. A masked intruder entered the home and killed the four students with a fixed-blade knife.

28-year-old Kohberger was arrested by authorities at his parents’ Pennsylvania home, more than a month later and has been charged with four counts of murder and one count of felony burglary. He was a graduate student and teaching assistant at the Washington State University.
