Washington State University police found a mattress pad possibly covered in blood stains, human hair, a glove and a computer in the defendant’s apartment, according to a public search warrant Wednesday.

Officers allegedly seized two pieces from a pillow without a pillowcase with a “reddish/brown stain”, a black nitrile glove, eight possible strands of hair, possible animal hair and other evidence, including bloodstains sent to the lab for analysis, reports the New York Post.
Shoes with diamond-patterned soles, which match fingerprints found at the crime scene, were also reportedly found, along with data collected on the victims.
The defendant, arrested on December 30 at his parents’ home in Pennsylvania, allegedly followed the three girls killed on Instagram, according to People.
The three female victims, Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves and Xana Kernodle, however, would not have followed him back.
An investigator familiar with the case has already revealed to People that one of the three murdered girls would have received, two weeks before her death, messages from an account which would have belonged to Bryan Kohberger.
This source adds that in October, a user, who would be the accused, according to the authorities, would have sent a message to one of the female victims.
Having no response, he would have sent several other private messages.
“Actually, it was just him going, ‘hey, how are you?’ But he sent it over and over once more,” the source told People.
Bryan Kohberger would never have received an answer.
The 28-year-old quadruple murder suspect also allegedly ate twice at the restaurant where two of the victims worked, a former employee told People.
Bryan Kohberger reportedly went to Mad Greek restaurant in Moscow, Idaho, at least twice to eat vegan pizza.
Madison Mogen and Xana Kernodle were waitresses at this restaurant.
However, it has not been confirmed whether one of the two victims served the alleged murderer or not.
The former Mad Greek restaurant employee told People that there was nothing strange during the suspect’s visit.
If he remembers his visit to the restaurant, it is because of his very particular order.
Being a very strict vegan, Bryan Kohberger made sure that his food was never in contact with animal products.
