Bryan Kohberger case: Theory Idaho suspect was behind party house noise complaints debunked
Idaho murders suspect Bryan Kohberger allegedly stalked the King Road home for weeks before the stabbings
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}FIRST ON FOX: Moscow, Idaho, police responded to noise complaints three times at the home where four University of Idaho students were later killed, but incident reports contain no evidence the prime suspect placed the calls as web sleuths have suggested.
Bryan Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology Ph.D. student at nearby Washington State University, had also applied for an internship with local police.
He had allegedly been stalking the King Road home where three of the four victims lived for weeks, according to a probable cause affidavit.

And Moscow police pulled him over for a traffic stop near the victims' home less than a week after the first noise complaint in August.

While his school had a database of police bodycam footage from several departments and surveillance video around Pullman, Washington, university officials say Kohberger was never granted access to those resources. And Moscow Police were not among the agencies sharing video.

Police documents obtained by Fox News Digital do not support either possibility.

Two of the three complainants, on the evening of Sept. 1 and the early morning of Sept. 2, are identified in police reports as neighbors of the King Road home in Moscow. Both calls came from houses on Walenta Drive, the street behind the six-bedroom off-campus rental house.
An earlier incident report from Aug. 16 does not include a complainant's name. However, the responding officer, on bodycam video, repeatedly mentions that the loud music is disturbing neighbors.

The attacks happened around 4 a.m. on Nov. 13, according to authorities, and Latah County Coroner Cathy Mabbutt previously said all four were stabbed to death. Steve Goncalves, Kaylee's father, told Fox News Digital in December that Mabbutt described the injuries to him as "big open gouges."

Goncalves' dog also survived the attack, and police later said they found possible animal hair while serving a search warrant at Kohberger's apartment in Pullman, less than 10 miles from the crime scene.
