Idaho murders: Restaurant where two victims worked disputes report that Brian Kochberger ate there

The owner of the restaurant in Moscow, Idaho, where the two murdered students worked, has spoken out after one report claimed that quadruple murder suspect Brian Kochberger visited the establishment twice, saying it was untrue.

A People article published Thursday alleges that Kohberger visited Mad Greek, where Madison Mogen and Xana Kernodle worked, and ordered a vegan pizza, citing a former employee.

Mad Greek owner Jackie Fisher said in a Facebook post that the report was based on “completely fabricated information.”

“The news/media should really do their due diligence before publishing a story with completely fabricated information. This will be my only response to this story from People… This is not true,” Fisher wrote.

The People report also said an investigator familiar with the case said law enforcement was aware of Kochberger’s visit to the restaurant.
