The second installment compiles WSU-received communications and records surrounding the Idaho Four investigation. It opens with January 3, 2023 Moscow releases concerning Kohberger’s extradition, the Idaho court process, and the nondissemination order, then continues with agency correspondence, WSU scheduling and patrol information, Steptoe-related records, public-records handling, and investigative support material. Public releases, internal emails, schedules, and law-enforcement records are different evidence types and are indexed as such rather than treated as one continuous narrative.
The fifth installment continues WSU safety and investigative-coordination records. It includes WSU’s response to community safety concerns, discussion of increased patrols and critical-incident coordination, correspondence about providing campus video to Moscow Police, prosecutor and Washington Attorney General communications concerning WSU records warrants, and other investigative or administrative follow-up extending beyond the immediate arrest period.
The sixth installment contains arrest announcements, agency-response records, warrant and evidence references, vehicle-identification communications, staff messages, and related WSU materials. It opens with the December 30, 2022 Moscow Police arrest release and includes later WSU discussion of how officers located a possible suspect vehicle near Kohberger’s residence. One January 5 message says the public affidavit’s vehicle-discovery timeline was not entirely correct and gives an alternate internal chronology: the BOLO email on November 28, a plate query early November 29, and an observation at the apartment complex shortly afterward. That statement is preserved as the author’s account and should be compared with dispatch, database, and sworn-record timestamps.
The seventh installment is warrant-focused. It includes Whitman County templates and completed application language for searching Kohberger’s Steptoe Village apartment and WSU office, descriptions of the premises, probable-cause material supplied by Idaho investigators, categories of property sought, supporting declarations, and related warrant/inventory records. Because the extraction can flatten checkboxes, signature blocks, exhibits, and inventories, the signed original pages—not this text layer—control the scope actually authorized and the items recorded as seized.
The eighth and largest text installment compiles media requests, interview invitations, press releases, campus-safety communications, public-records correspondence, parking/LPR references, warrant-related material, and institutional messaging. Examples include a December 27, 2022 podcast invitation to WSU Police leadership, January 3 Moscow releases on extradition and nondissemination, and WSU communications describing increased patrols, safe-ride and escort resources, academic flexibility, and employee/student support after the homicides and arrest. Repetition and forwarded chains are substantial; each item’s sender, date, attachment, and status should be verified in the original.
This record indexes “CityofPullmanPoliceDept_Facebook_Timeline_posts.pdf,” a PDF stored under “Pullman Social Media Records.” Connected extraction recovered 11,204 searchable characters. A sanitized full-text extraction is included for research and must be checked against the original layout.
This record indexes “bn_02321.png,” a social-media screenshot or image stored in the Social Media Archive section “Steve G & Brat Norton Messages.” The artifact is preserved for provenance, but searchable source text is withheld because this section may contain private communications, payment activity, anonymous accusations, health-related posts, harassment, or unverified account attribution. The record does not authenticate an account, identify a user behind a handle, or treat statements in the artifact as established facts.
