The 30-year-old faced the death penalty for the gruesome murders of four students, Kaylee Goncalves, Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle and Madison Mogen in their home in Moscow, Idaho, in November 2022.
The plea deal spares him his life - but the abrupt ending leaves relatives of the victims with conflicted feelings and many questions unanswered.
Kohberger's sentencing is set for Wednesday in the city of Boise.
The state made a "deal with the devil", Kaylee Goncalves's father Steve told reporters. Like others, he had lingering questions about the mysteries surrounding the case, including a motive.
