A two-page Moscow Police Department chain-of-custody report for case 22-M09903 and evidence 22M-1810, described as Item 11, a tan K-BAR sheath with a USMC logo found on a bed in a third-story bedroom. The log shows booking and receipt by Brett Payne on November 14–15, 2022; two duplicated-looking temporary-release entries to ISP Willerford for transport to the ISP lab on November 16; two duplicated-looking lab-return entries on December 16; legal-defense review by Jeff Talbott on April 6, 2023; defense review associated with Brent Turvey on December 12, 2024; repackaging by Brett Payne on June 23, 2025; and a July 7, 2025 location-change/hold entry. Custodian identities are heavily redacted. The report documents recorded custody transactions but does not itself contain DNA results, packaging photographs, seals, or signatures.
The fourth installment compiles WSU safety concerns, institutional communications, media-related correspondence, public-records handling, and investigative support. Visible examples include a parent’s November 22, 2022 questions about campus safety and academic options, a January 2023 message circulating a Kohberger internship-related video, and a January 2024 request concerning memorial coins for WSU Police staff who worked the Idaho Four response. The large production also references parking, LPR, warrant, and administrative records; each thread must be read with its own date and sender context.
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.
