Bryan Kohberger is expected to plead guilty on Wednesday to all counts in the killings of four University of Idaho students, despite the former criminology student's initial eagerness to be exonerated in the high-profile case.

A presiding judge will have to go over a variety of questions to make sure the defendant understands everything before accepting a plea.

Kohberger was charged with four counts of first-degree murder in the killings of four University of Idaho students in an off-campus house in November 2022.
