IDAHO - Bryan Kohberger drove for hours after the Idaho student murders before surveillance cameras caught him calmly shopping and using a self-checkout register.

Police in Moscow, Idaho, have released hours of surveillance videos they would have used as evidence at trial if the 30-year-old former criminology Ph.D. student hadn't pleaded guilty at the last minute to avoid the potential death penalty.

The clips offer a glimpse at how police were able to trace his movements even though he had his phone shut off at the time of the murders, and how the socially awkward murderer tried to get into a Costco store but was apparently turned away without showing a membership card.
