Idaho prosecutor's office hit with one-star reviews after controversial Brian Kohberger plea deal

Tourists to Moscow, Idaho, might want to strike “scenic attorney’s office” from the itinerary.

People enraged at Brian Kohberger’s plea deal – allowing him to duck the death penalty for the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students – vented their frustration by leaving 1-star reviews on the prosecutors’ Google listing.

“Horrible Horrible people work here!! They all need to be fired for what they did, no justice for any of the 4 college students,” one reviewer fumed on the listing for the ​​Latah County Prosecuting Attorney.

“What part about Bryan Kohberger needs to die do you not understand?” wrote another.

Added another: “I had a traffic ticket and the prosecutor went after me harder than you went after Kohberger.”

The review-bombs came after a shocking guilty plea deal inked just weeks before Kohberger had been scheduled to stand trial for allegedly breaking into an off-campus house and butchering the students in their bedrooms.

He was expected to plead guilty on Wednesday.

The amateur critics aren’t the only ones who felt stabbed in the back by the prosecution.

The families of victims Kaylee Gonclaves, 21, and Xana Kernodle, 20, slammed the decision to spare Kohberger a trial — and the chance of death by firing squad.

“Idaho has failed. They failed me. They failed my whole family,” Kaylee Gonclaves father Steve told NBC’s “Today” show.

Kohberger’s supporters, too, are up in arms about the deal, calling it to be a ploy to put an innocent man behind bars.

“Innocent people are regularly strong-armed by crooked cops, corrupt prosecutors, and physical & psychological abuse in jail while awaiting trial to break them down to accept a plea,” wrote Solomon Anderson on X.

The deal was the climax – or anti-climax – of a drawn-out case that left true-crime buffs at the edge of their seats.

Kohberger insisted for months that he had nothing to do with the deaths despite a mounting body of evidence to the contrary – most of which his defense team fought unsuccessfully to keep out of the courtroom.

His attorneys also worked to delay the trial at every turn and recently claimed to have a list of “alternate perpetrators” in a Hail Mary attempt to stall the process. The judge denied both motions.

In the end, Kohberger settled for a guilty plea with four consecutive life sentences. He also waived the right to appeal. In exchange, he will be spared from facing death by firing squad.

The 11th-hour deal could also mean the families of the victim – and the public – may never know his motives — because the full evidence and investigative findings will not be aired in court.

It remains to be seen how much Kohberger will have to reveal during allocution.
