Bryan Kohberger sent to Idaho’s hellhole max-security prison—here’s what was on the menu for his first night

Bryan Kohberger has been transferred to one of America’s worst hellhole prisons overnight — where inmates chowed down on hot dogs and vegan casserole for dinner, The Post has learned.

The monstrous killer was sent to the notorious Idaho Maximum Security Institute after he was jailed for life Wednesday for the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students, prison records show.

It wasn’t immediately clear if the 30-year-old made it in time for dinner.

But if he did, the Wednesday night menu included hot dogs, salad and Jello pie, a prison official told The Post.

For vegan inmates like Kohberger, vegan barley casserole, baked beans and canned fruit were on offer, the official added.

Kohberger, who was previously being held at the Ada County Jail in Boise during his trial, is now expected to live out his days at IMSI — the state’s only max-security prison.

The lockup, which has been plagued by claims of feces-smeared cages, brutally violent guards and rioting inmates, currently houses “Doomsday” cult mom Lori Vallow’s child-murderer husband, Chad Daybell.

Two of Idaho’s most notorious serial killers — Gerald Pizzuto and Thomas Eugene Creech — are also serving time there.

IMSI was named one of the “15 Worst Prisons in America” by Security Journal Americas in 2024.
