The DNA of a man accused of killing four University of Idaho students was found on a knife sheath recovered at the crime scene, and mobile phone data shows that he was in the area of the victims’ home multiple times in the months before the November attack, an investigator has said.

The documents were made public minutes before Bryan Kohberger, a 28-year-old criminology doctoral student at nearby Washington State University, appeared in court to face four charges of first-degree murder.
