00:00 Ryan Koberger of Date Ethan Chapin's mom shares heartfelt message

00:03 about Idaho murder victims as suspected killer's hearing gets delayed.

00:07 Orlandio Hefelarayde Ethan Chapin's mother, Stacey Chapin, recently

00:12 shared her emotional and heartfelt sentiments about the victims of Brian Koberger as she

00:16 made an unexpected appearance at a packed auditorium at a true crime conference in Orlando.

00:21 Ethan, 20, was killed alongside his girlfriend, Zana Kernodle, 20, her housemate Kaylee Goncalves,

00:26 21, and best friend Madison Mogan, 21, on November 13, 2022, at an off-campus apartment

00:33 on King Road.

00:34 Nearly two months after the grisly murders of the University of Idaho students, authorities

00:38 arrested Koberger as prime suspect in the case and later charged him with four counts

00:43 of first-degree murder and one count of burglary.

00:45 The 28-year-old suspected killer's hearing was scheduled to begin on October 2, but it

00:50 was postponed citing an unknown illness.

00:52 What did Ethan Chapin's mom say about the Idaho murders?

00:55 Ethan Chapin's mother, Stacey Chapin, remembered the four slain students on Friday, September

01:00 22, when she made a surprise appearance at the 2023 CrimeCon following Professor Joseph

01:05 Scott Morgan's presentation.

01:07 She began, "I'm Stacey Chapin, and I'm Ethan's mom.

01:10 I want all of you to know that these were four of the greatest kids, and all of the

01:13 great things that you read about them are legitimately true.

01:17 It's always been a challenge for me to hear people talk about Ethan who don't know him,"

01:21 continued the devastated mother, according to Daily Mail.

01:23 "I can speak on behalf of my own son, who is an incredible human, and we miss them all

01:28 terribly," stated Stacey as her voice broke in front of 3,200 strong attendees.

01:34 She added, "They were amazing, amazing kids in the prime of their life," and later explained

01:38 how she wanted to make it known that Ethan's story was real and deeply personal to her.

01:43 At the time of his death, Ethan was a student at the University of Idaho studying recreation,

01:48 sport, and tourist management.

01:50 He lived at the Sigma Chi Fraternity House, about 200 yards away from the home where he

01:54 was stabbed to death.

01:55 He had been visiting his girlfriend, Santa Kernodle, on the night of the murders.

01:59 What is the status of Brian Koberger's hearing?

02:01 Brian Koberger, who was arrested from his parents' residence in connection to the

02:05 murder of the University of Idaho students, has been charged with four counts of murder

02:09 but pleaded not guilty during his arraignment.

02:11 On September 21, a pretrial hearing for Koberger was also postponed due to a reported illness.

02:17 The Idaho statesman reported that the hearing was postponed due to an unknown illness, citing

02:22 a spokesperson for the Idaho court system.

02:24 Moreover, the judge did not set a new hearing date at the request of Koberger's attorney,

02:29 Ann Taylor, who noted that the defense team could not be prepared to effectively present

02:33 their case.

02:34 According to the publication, a Lauda County District Court supervisor did not provide

02:38 any further information on the illness, such as who specifically became ill.

02:42 Brian Koberger was moved away from female students, Administrator reveals.

02:46 Brian Koberger was moved away from female students while attending a career institute

02:51 in Pennsylvania, according to a former school administrator.

02:54 Fox Nation on Sunday released an exclusive special titled "Brian Koberger, I Am Blank,"

02:59 in which Nancy Grace spoke with many people who had experiences with the Idaho murder

03:03 suspect, including Tanya Carmela-Beers, who served as Koberger's former administrator

03:08 at the Monroe Career and Technical Institute.

03:11 Carmela-Beers explained that Koberger was initially in the protective services program

03:15 at the institute, where he sought to prepare for a career in law enforcement.

03:19 However, she said that after two incidents, he was moved into another program where there

03:23 were no female students.

03:24 She was unable to provide details about the incidents but told Fox Nation that they were

03:28 related to female students in the program with Koberger.

03:31 There had been one or two incidents that had occurred, Carmela-Beers told Fox Nation.

03:36 Some of the issues that arose were based on having a mixed population in that classroom.

03:40 One of those incidents ultimately resulted in him being removed from that program.

03:44 In December 2022, Koberger, 28, was arrested and charged with four counts of first-degree

03:49 murder and one count of felony burglary following the fatal stabbings of Kaylee Gonkows, 21,

03:54 Madison Mogen, 21, Ethan Chapin, 20, and Santa Carnotal, 20.

03:59 All four victims were students at the University of Idaho and staying in an off-campus residence

04:04 at the time of the killings.

04:05 Koberger has maintained his innocence and stood silently during his arraignment.

04:09 The judge overseeing the case entered not guilty pleas for Koberger on each of the charges.

04:13 Since his arrest, only a few details about his life have been released, such as his behavior

04:18 toward women, as some have claimed that he exhibited insult and voluntary celibate tendencies.

04:23 One of Koberger's former friends, Jack Bayless, also spoke to Fox Nation about the case and

04:28 the arrest, saying that Koberger was often frustrated with women.

04:31 Bayless also said that Koberger expressed issues to him about his dating life and how

04:36 he would be ghosted a lot by females.

04:38 Jennifer Coffendaffer, a former FBI agent, told Newsweek in January that she believed

04:43 Koberger's deepest motivation for the alleged crimes would be this insult theory.

04:47 Coffendaffer is not directly involved in the case.
