Chilling new footage has emerged showing quadruple murderer Bryan Kohberger pacing his cramped prison cell.
The 30-year-old former criminology student was seen in leaked video shining his shoes and carefully placing items on a grim wire shelf inside his punishment chamber.
His hands look red – which may be a result of the murderer’s rumored compulsive handwashing habit.
It is unclear when and where the security video was taken, although a Daily Mail analysis of Kohberger’s features suggests it may have been filmed recently.

His living quarters are exceptionally grim. The walls are painted institutional gray, while the floor is raw concrete. A stainless steel toilet, with no seat or lid, sits in one corner with a matching sink above.
A mirror is bolted to the wall, should Kohberger wish to track his appearance as he ages towards his grave behind the same four walls.
The only semblance of warmth comes from a dark wool throw on Kohberger’s bed, which has a simple check pattern stitched into it.
Kohberger was held inside Pennsylvania‘s Monroe County Jail, as well as Idaho‘s Latah County Jail and Ada County Jail prior to his sentencing in Boise last month.
The murderer must spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole at Idaho Maximum Security Prison in Kuna, just outside Boise.
The Ada County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to the Daily Mail that the footage was not leaked from their jail. The other detention centers have been contacted whether the footage was leaked from their facilities.
It appears to have been filmed by a staffer pointing a phone at a TV screen linked to the in-cell surveillance camera.
Kohberger faces a lifetime in his cell with just one hour a day outside in a cage for the rest of his life.
He spends 23 hours a day in his cell for his safety and gets just one hour outside each day, which is spent in a specially-constructed cage.

He was spared the death penalty following a July plea deal that saw him admit the November 2022 murders of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin.
Meanwhile, newly-released documents claim Kohberger called out 21 year-old Goncalves name during the quadruple bloodbath at his victims’ student house in Moscow.
Surviving roommate Dylan Mortensen told detectives that when she was awoken by commotion in the home during the horrific murders, she ‘opened her room door and heard a male say, “It’s OK Kaylee. I’m here for you”.’
Mortensen said that a short time later, she ‘opened her door again and saw someone approximately 5’10” tall, dressed in black with a ski mask, standing in the kitchen’, per the documents.
The detail suggests that Kohberger knew who Goncalves was and where she lived, suggesting a possible motive for the killings. Kohberger has refused to speak about why he did it.
In other documents in the release, it was revealed that a professor at Washington State University, where Kohberger was studying for his Pd.D. in criminology, warned other faculty members of their fears about the would-be murderer.
The unnamed professor wrote in a note: ‘Kohberger is smart enough that in four years, we will have to give him a Ph.D.
‘Mark my word, I work with predators, if we give him a Ph.D., that’s the guy that in many years when he is a professor, we will hear is harassing, stalking, and sexually abusing.’
The ominous note was sent just months before Kohberger stabbed the four students at the nearby university to death.
Prosecutors have said there was no evidence of a sexual component to the murders, leaving Kohberger’s motive and connection to his victims a complete mystery.
This week, the Daily Mail revealed for the first time the exact porn searches made by the killer which may shed some light on his mindset and motivations at the time – including searches for attacks on sleeping girls.
Last month, Kohberger was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole in Idaho Maximum Security Prison, where he was placed in solitary confinement

The search terms were shared with the Daily Mail by the digital forensics experts hired by state prosecutors to dig into Kohberger’s Android cell phone and laptop.
Heather Barnhart, Senior Director of Forensic Research at Cellebrite, and Jared Barnhart, Head of CX Strategy and Advocacy at Cellebrite, joined the case back in March 2023 and were set to testify as expert witnesses in Kohberger’s capital murder trial.
Through their years-long forensic analysis of Kohberger’s devices, the Cellebrite team was able to recover his searches.
The terms they found included ‘sleeping’, ‘passed out’, ‘Voyeur’, ‘Forced ‘raped’ and ‘drugged’.
‘The easiest way to say it is that all of his terms were consistently around non-consensual sex acts,’ Jared told the Daily Mail.
Kohberger’s apparent sleep rape fetishes raise questions about what he may have planned to do the night of the murders.
As well as the porn searches, the Cellebrite team found a clear obsession with serial killers and home invasions.
On Kohberger’s laptop, Heather said they found searches for ‘serial killers, co-ed killers, home invasions, burglaries and psychopaths before the murders and then up through Christmas Day’.
There was one serial killer Kohberger showed a keen interest in that stood out to the team: Danny Rolling.

Rolling, known as the Gainesville Ripper, broke into the homes of University of Florida students at night and murdered five – four female and one male – in the fall semester of 1990.
He raped the women during his attacks and decapitated one of his victims, posing her head on a mantle in her home.
Just like Kohberger, Rolling’s murder weapon of choice was also a Ka-Bar knife.
The similarities between the crimes are eerie and the Cellebrite team found Kohberger had downloaded a PDF onto his phone about Rolling.
He had also watched a YouTube video about a Ka-Bar knife.
Kohberger’s cell phone also contained many selfies where he was posing shirtless or flexing his muscles, Jared and Heather revealed.
There was also the chilling thumbs-up selfie to the camera a few hours after the murders and a creepy hooded selfie days before his arrest.
