Monroe County First Assistant District Attorney Michael Mancuso has revealed details about Kohberger's behavior on the night he was arrested, and it could raise an eyebrow, to say the least. According to the DA, Kohberger was found with medical gloves on.

He "was found awake in the kitchen area dressed in shorts and a shirt a wearing latex medical type gloves and apparently was taking his personal trash and putting it into a separate zip lock baggies," Mancuso said, per BRCTV13.

Mancuso speculates that it could explain why investigators didn't find Bryan's DNA, only the DNA of family members, when they confiscated the trash outside of the home and tested it. However, the DNA of his father was enough to link Kohberger to the DNA found on the knife sheath left by one of the dead bodies in Idaho.

Police also searched Kohberger's Hyundai Elantra, a key piece of evidence, and quite possibly how he was linked to the crimes in the first place, his parents' garage, and a shed on the property. They took multiple items out of the door, including a door panel, seat cushions, headrests, a seat belt, a visor, and brake and gas pedals. They also took some hiking boots, a shovel, and goggles.
