Where to watch the ‘One Night in Idaho' documentary
On 13 November 2022, the tight-knit community in the Idaho town of Moscow were left reeling after the murder of four college students. University of Idaho undergraduates Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Ethan Chapin, 20, were stabbed to death at their home in the middle of the night. Their two other roommates, Bethany Funke and Dylan Mortensen, were the only people in the house to survive. After a seven-week manhunt, the now-convicted mass murderer Bryan Kohberger was found at his family home. For three years, he professed his innocence before switching his plea to avoid the death penalty, just weeks before he was due to stand trial. The police revealed little about the investigation owing to a gag order in place, which was lifted by the judge ahead of the sentencing. But many questions remain unanswered, including the motivations behind his attack. In a bid to put the victims and their families front and centre, directors Liz Garbus and Matthew Galkin have made a four-part documentary titled One Night in Idaho: The College Murders. It follows the family and friends of the victims in the aftermath and explores the impact of social media sleuths during high-profile cases. Here's everything you need to know about it, including where to stream. What is 'One Night in Idaho: The College Murders' about? The four-part series recounts the night of the murders, where four students were stabbed in their off-campus house in the quiet town of Moscow. Exploring the aftermath of the killings, it features the grieving family, friends and wider community. The documentary features exclusive interviews with Stacey and Jim Chapin (parents of Ethan Chapin), and Karen and Scott Laramie (parents of Madison Mogen), none of whom have previously been interviewed about the murders. The directors of the series – Liz Garbus and Matthew Galkin – wanted to shake up the true crime format by putting the victims at the forefront, rather than the suspect. Across four episodes, One Night in Idaho also explores the impact and damage of internet sleuths who became obsessed with the case, some of whom attempted to sneak into the University's classes and dorms, and others even into the roped-off house. Where to watch 'One Night in Idaho' in the UK All four episodes of One Night in Idaho are now available on Amazon Prime Video. If you're not already a member, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial. After that, a Prime membership costs £8.99 per month or £95 per year. Alternatively, you can subscribe to Prime Video alone for £5.99 per month.

Teen killer gives shocking prison interview after helping Republican lawmaker's daughter murder her father
A Las Vegas killer who helped his then-girlfriend murder her father insisted he is 'not a monster' in a jailhouse interview as he said he hopes to someday be paroled. Aaron Guerrero, 20, was convicted alongside his former girlfriend Sierra Halseth after they brutally stabbed, dismembered and burned her father Daniel Halseth in April 2021. Guerrero, who was 18 at the time of the slaying, said he and Sierra, then-16, decided to kill Halseth because he mistreated his daughter, which the victim's family insist is completely false. In his jailhouse interview, Guerrero said he was suffering from mental health problems at the time and wasn't taking his medication. 'I would pretend like I would take it, and I feel like that has some form or impact in what happened,' he said in an interview with 8NewsNow. Guerrero added that he was taking LSD often at the time of the murder, and blamed the psychedelic drug for exacerbating his mental health problems, leading to the murder. 'I don't think I would have been capable of something like that had I been sober, because it's a psychological drug as most people know, and when you have a mental illness it only makes it worse,' he said. Both Guerrero and Sierra were sentenced in 2022 to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 22 years, and he said that if he is ever freed, he hopes to show the Halseth family he is a better person. Sierra Halseth, then-16, left, and Aaron Guerrero, then-18, right, are pictured in their mugshots after being arrested for murdering her father Daniel Halseth in 2021 When asked how he could ever make up the brutal murder to the Halseth family, Guerrero responded: 'By proving to them that I'm not a monster. '(And by showing) that I still have potential to be a functioning member of society and can benefit society.' When Sierra and Guerrero were caught for Halseth's murder three days after his burnt body was found in his Las Vegas home, shocking footage the couple filmed while on the run captured international headlines. They were seen cuddled up in bed together, with Guerrero kissing his girlfriend on the head and saying: 'Day three after murdering somebody.' 'Don't say that on camera!' she responded. Halseth was the ex-husband of former Republican state legislator Elizabeth Halseth, Sierra's mother. The couple had a public divorce and custody battle, and prosecutors said that he had a fraught relationship with Sierra and the murder came after he tried to forbid her from seeing Guerrero. Explaining the casualness of their reaction to the murder in the infamous footage filmed days later, Guerrero now says that he is not proud of the footage. 'We were both trying to cope with what happened and we, I can't say for Sierra, but personally I feel guilt every day,' he said. The brutality in Halseth's murder stunned the nation, with detectives finding that the father was stabbed 70 times before his body was cut up by construction tools. His remains were found stuffed in a sleeping bag in the garage of his home, which had been set on fire. Asked how the murder unfolded, Guerrero did not go into specifics, but said: 'She got the weapon first and I always carry a weapon, so you know that's what led to what happened after that.' Sierra is locked up in Florence McClure Women's Correctional Center in North Las Vegas, while Guerrero is spending his sentence at High Desert State Prison, just a 40 minute drive away. But Guerrero said he has no plans on ever speaking to his former girlfriend again, and said he is filled with regret over how he got swept up in their teen relationship. 'I think I acted more out of impulse than what you could call love,' he said.

Bryan Kohberger's new mugshot released ahead of move to hellhole maximum security prison
has been pictured in a new mugshot as he prepares to see out his dying days inside Idaho 's maximum security prison for the murders of four students. In the image, the mass killer, 30, stares hauntingly straight into the camera with the same vacant, emotionless expression he wore when confronted by his victims' heartbroken family members at his sentencing Wednesday. Kohberger was sentenced to life in prison with no possibility of parole for the murders of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin back on November 13, 2022. In the early hours of the morning, Kohberger broke into the off-campus student home at 1122 King Road in Moscow and stabbed the four victims to death. He was arrested around six weeks later on December 30, 2022, at his parents' home in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania, where he had gone for the holidays. After spending more than two years fighting the charges, Kohberger finally confessed to his crimes and pleaded guilty earlier this month. On Wednesday, Judge Steven Hippler told him he would die behind bars for his crimes as he handed gave him four life sentences with no possibility of parole for each of the four victims and an additional 10 years for burglary. Now, Kohberger is in the custody of Idaho's Department of Corrections where he will be evaluated to determine where he will spend the remainder of his life. Due to the severity of his crime - and the high-profile nature of the case - Kohberger is expected to be sent to the state's only maximum security facility. Idaho Maximum Security Institution, which has been open since 1989, is home to other notorious inmates including doomsday cult killer Chad Daybell, who sits on death row. Kohberger's infamy means he is likely to be placed in a secure unit where inmates are confined to their cells for 23 hours a day, to prevent him being a target of other inmates. But, the mass killer who slaughtered four victims for reasons only he knows will enjoy some perks within the confines of the prison walls. He will have access to a TV, a tablet with music, and emails - meaning he could receive fan mail from twisted supporters.
