The man accused of killing four University of Idaho college students last November has pleaded not guilty in court on Monday.

When Bryan Kohberger entered the packed Latah County courtroom in Moscow, Idaho, he was dead silent. When the judge asked him how he pleaded, he continued to stand still and remain silent, in which case the judge entered a not guilty plea on the defendant’s behalf.

He only spoke up after being prompted by the judge, responding either “yes” or “yes, I do.”
