Overview
- Netflix will premiere the three-part series The Idaho Murders: College Nightmare on July 29, 2026.
- The series revisits the November 13, 2022 killings of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle and the investigation that led to Bryan Kohberger's guilty plea.
- Producers describe the film as victims-centered and say it provides unprecedented access to family interviews, police footage, never-before-seen bodycam clips and forensic evidence tied to the case, including the DNA link investigators reported on a knife sheath.
- Skye Borgman directs the project with Joe Berlinger and others as executive producers, and a trailer released by Netflix features police bodycam footage.
- The Netflix docuseries joins separate projects on Peacock and Amazon Prime Video and could shape public memory of the case while raising ethical questions about retraumatizing families and how true-crime films handle sensitive evidence.
