The mother of slain University of Idaho student Kaylee Goncalves has shared a heart wrenching video online after finally receiving over a dozen boxes full of her late daughter’s belongings from state investigators.
Kristi Goncalves‘ voice started to break as she shared that, while going through Kaylee’s possessions, she came across the University of Idaho sweatshirt Kaylee could be seen wearing in video footage filmed outside a food truck hours before her murder.
The footage was part of a live stream from Moscow, Idaho, that was being hosted by the food truck’s operators, Grub Truckers.
In the footage, Kaylee can be seen with her roommate and lifelong best friend, Madison Mogen. The girls are seen waltzing up to the truck after a night out with friends and ordering a plate of carbonara pasta. The footage shows the girls smiling, laughing and talking as they waited 10 minutes for their food.
The murderous actions of Bryan Kohberger continue to haunt the families of his four victims, as the state of Idaho stirs up fresh heartache with the continued release of graphic court filings. Most recently, Idaho officials made public forensic reports containing previously unreleased details. In them, medical examiners noted in vivid detail just how Kohberger […]
The footage was filmed between 1:33 a.m. and 1:43 a.m. on November 13, 2022.
“I just came across the sweatshirt that she was wearing that night,” Kristi explained before holding up the wrinkled garment.
Kristi then said that she found something in the sweatshirt’s pocket: the receipt from Kaylee’s food truck order.
She then unfolded the receipt for order #78, which showed the name of the business along with a 1:42 a.m. time stamp.
Kristi then started to breathe the sweatshirt in and sobbed as she hugged it.
She explained that, in addition to a Sublime T-shirt and the sweatshirt was the first thing of Kaylee’s she had come across that she was actually looking for in the boxes. Finding the food receipt “just takes you back to those hours, those hours right before … they had no idea what was going to happen to them.”
The Goncalves family also shared a screenshot of a text message that was sent at 1:05 p.m. to Kaylee’s phone from the food truck operators, asking simply, “You all ok?” The message was sent one minute after an area-wide text about the killings was sent out to University of Idaho students and staff.
Relatives of one of confessed killer Bryan Kohberger‘s four victims have been speaking out after a recent photo dump by Idaho officials left them reeling. The family of Kaylee Goncalves denounced the thousands of redacted crime scene photographs Idaho State Police made public on Tuesday, January 20, claiming through social media they were given very […]
Kaylee was 21 when she and three of her housemates were murdered by Washington State University grad student Bryan Kohberger. Early on November 13, 2022, Kohberger found his way into the home Kaylee shared with Mogen, also 21, killing them and college sweethearts Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, both 20, before fleeing the scene.
He initially pleaded not guilty to the murders but later changed his plea to guilty to avoid the death penalty. Kohberger was sentenced in July to four consecutive life sentences and an additional 10 years for burglary.
Kohberger has never revealed a motive for his crimes, leaving the true crime obsessed to speculate.
Kohberger is serving his time at Idaho’s only maximum-security prison, which has a capacity of 535 inmates, according to the Idaho Department of Correction website. Kohberger has filed several complaints with prison staff since his arrival in August. The strict vegan has taken issue with the prison food and has reported being taunted and sexually harassed by other inmates.
