Mother of Idaho murder victim speaks out on trial of suspect Bryan Kohberger

The mother of Madison Mogen, one of the four University of Idaho murder victims, has spoken publicly for the first time since the tragedy. Karen Laramie expressed frustration with the legal system, stating it does not prioritize victims, as the trial for suspect Bryan Kohberger is set for August 2025. Laramie shared memories of her daughter and discussed the Made with Kindness Foundation, created in honor of Mogen and her friends. She emphasized the importance of positively channeling grief and supporting others through scholarships. Kohberger, charged with four counts of first-degree murder, is awaiting trial in Boise, Idaho. His defense has argued against the death penalty, while prosecutors have linked him to the crime scene through DNA and cell phone data.
