Bryan Kohberger, 30, is accusing the staff at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution of denying him food replacements with his meals<\/p>\n
He does not provide examples but is a vegan, and wrote in a July 31 complaint “the nutritional standard is not being upheld unless I receive my full tray”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Kohberger has filed five formal complaints in his three weeks in prison, claiming he is being sexually harassed and threatened, and requesting transfer to a new cell block<\/p>\n
Bryan Kohberger filed two complaints in his first two days in the J-Block at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution.
\nThe first, filed on July 30, requested a transfer to another section of the prison, and the second, submitted the following day, accused staff of depriving him of food.
\n“I have on several occasions not received all items of food on my tray,” Kohberger wrote on July 31 in a handwritten complaint obtained by PEOPLE and first reported on by the Idaho Statesman.
\nHe went on to write that when he brought the issue up during meal service, he did not receive any replacements as requested \u2014 and that no one even contacted the kitchen.
\nKohberger is a strict vegan \u2014 likely the reason he’s requesting these replacements \u2014 and the Idaho Department of Corrections (IDOC) does offer a vegan alternative for inmates at all meals.
\n“The policy book confirms items missing which are pointed out during service will be replaced,” Kohberger wrote.
\nHe continued: “I wish to, without exception, receive these replacements.”
\nKohberger then closed out his complaint by writing: “The nutritional standard is not being upheld unless I receive my full tray.”

\nKohberger has already submitted five formal complaints in the three weeks since he has been in the custody of the IDOC.
\nIn one, he complained of being sexually harassed and threatened by his fellow inmates.
\nKohberger accused one inmate of saying “I’ll b— f— you” and another of stating that “the only a– we’ll be eating is Kohberger’s.”
\nThe guard on duty at that time wrote in an incident report that he did recall vulgar comments from inmates which were directed at Kohberger on the date and time in question, but because he could not identify the individuals responsible, the complaint was closed out by prison officials.
\nIt is unclear if the complaint has been resolved; a spokesperson for the IDOC did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
\nAfter filing his initial complaint seeking a transfer, a prison official wrote that the J-block is “generally a fairly calm and quieter tier.”
\nKohberger received a sentence\u00a0of four lifetimes in prison\u00a0after admitting he murdered four students at the University of Idaho:\u00a0Kaylee Goncalves,\u00a0Madison Mogen,\u00a0Xana Kernodle, and\u00a0Ethan Chapin.
\nAll four were found\u00a0brutally stabbed to death on Nov. 13, 2022\u00a0at their off-campus home in the town of Moscow.
\nInvestigators still are not sure what connection Kohberger may have had with the Idaho students, nor his motive for the crime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
