It's not clear exactly how much weight Kohberger has lost or why, News Nation reported.

It may due to his vegan diet, a distaste for the meals available to him in prison, or a conscious decision.

This is not the first time the inmate has dropped a significant amount of weight.

As a teenager, he once weighed more than 300lb.

A friend said he was brutally bullied for his size in high school until his senior year, when he lost 100lb.

Although he remains almost completely isolated from other inmates, Kohberger still has a carefree attitude.

He has access to a TV and a tablet where can watch movies for the price of 5cents a minute, but the inmate also spends a lot of time sleeping.

Kohberger has reportedly attended Mass on several occasions and also gets to spend one hour a day in the prison's multi-purpose room, which also functions as its library.

There used to be exercise equipment in the space including pull-up and push-up bars, but those have since been removed.

Kohberger is accused of murdering 21-year-old students Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves, and friends Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, both 20, in an off-campus apartment near the University of Idaho in the early hours of November 13.

The suspect was pursuing a Ph.D in criminology at nearby Washington State University when the crime occurred.

Two other students living in the apartment, Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, survived the attack.

Experts believe their testimony will play an important role in the upcoming trial.

Kohberger's attorney Anne Taylor did not immediately respond to the U.S. Sun's request for comment.

His next court appearance is scheduled for June 26.
