Bryan Kohberger is expected to plead guilty on Wednesday to all counts in the killings of four University of Idaho students, despite the former criminology student's initial eagerness to be exonerated in the high-profile case.

Kohberger is expected in court on July 2 to plead guilty to the murders of four University of Idaho students in a deal to avoid the death penalty.

Kohberger was charged with four counts of first-degree murder in the killings of four University of Idaho students in an off-campus house in November 2022.
