Idaho College Killer Suspect Arrested

Not open for further replies.
Like others have said, I'm pretty confident the investigators have all the evidence they need to put this guy away for life (not sure on death penalty, if that Nikolas Cruz punk didn't get the DP in Florida, I doubt this guy will get it. Even if he did, when was the last time this state executed anyone?)

Now, it has to play out in court, so we will find out in like 5 years.

Update: Looks like Idaho did an execution in 2011 and 2012. Maybe there is hope.

Families in Florida got a slap in the face when Cruz did not get the death penalty.

All it takes is one dumb juror….
 
Suspect got Washington license plates on the while Elantra 5 days after the crime.

 
I haven't read every post, but I did read last week that this guy hung out at a local brewery in the PA town he was picked up in. It doesn't make him guilty but he would go in alone and have a few and then started making weird and inappropriate comments to the female staff, and would mumble things under his breath loud enough to be heard. The owner confronted him the last time he came in and told he "was happy to have you here, but you gotta stop saying things to my staff and be respectful, or you'll be asked to leave and not come back." The guy had one beer left and never returned. Make of that what you will...
 
Arrest warrant affidavit is unsealed. Just heard some statements from it ... It's a mountain of solid evidence. This guy is toast IMO.

Ok, so here is the un-answered question and I guess at some point we will know the answer?
Why did the terrified living house mate, who heard her friend whimpering ect... than froze with fear when walked right past her, left the house, she then went back to her room and not call the police until someone else did 7 hours later?

I think this is just what I read, am I wrong?
This from ZeeOsix link to affidavit nd from what I understand she never called the police, first call didnt come in until almost afternoon that day.

^^^ Regarding my post above, this is what I dont understand, how come no one in the house called the police for eight hours? I guess this will come out in a trial and that there is a good explanation such as shock or whatever because the police have no other suspicions that we know of.

" D.M. opened her door again and "saw a figure clad in black clothing and a mask that covered the person's mouth and nose walking towards her," Moscow police office Brett Payne wrote in the affidavit. "The male walked past D.M. as she stood in a ‘frozen shock phase.’" He walked by her and exited out the second floor sliding glass doors, D.M. told police.
The roommate locked herself in her room. Nearly eight hours later, a call was placed to police from one of the surviving roommates' cellphones reporting an unconscious person."
 
^^^ Yeah, that's a big puzzling thing on why she didn't call 911 or checkout things after he left. Could be since that house was a known party house she thought it was just people still around hanging out and partying late into the night and tuned it out, which could have been somewhat of a normal thing in that house.

The police and FBI where zeroed in on Kohlberger 16 days after the crime, so the police were very good coming up with the suspect. The cell phone tracking, vehicle survallence videos in Moscow and Pullman, and DNA will be impossible to deny IMO.
 
For a guy who studied criminology, forensics and serial killers, he sure didn't think of the things he could have been caught by (surveillance cameras all over the place, cell phone tracking, many ways to detect and trace DNA, etc). Evidence also shows he was around that house 12 times since June, and all but one of those times was late at night - night stalker. I'm sure there is way more than what was shown in the affidavit which was really detailed.
 
Also, law enforcement confiscated his car and apartment to collect evidence after the arrest, so I'm betting they will find other connecting evidence there. If DNA of any victim is in the Elantera and/or any electronic forensics are found on his home or work computer(s) it will be more solid evidence. He might end up going for a plea deal to avoid a possible death penalty. Only time will show how this all unfolds.
 
My radio show host was speculating what I’ve been thinking all along. The killer may have had some kind’ve relationship with one of the victims.

He probably knew who they were, but they probably didn't really know him personally. He could have went to the Greek restaurant they worked at in Moscow and had some minor contact there - that restaurant had a vegan menu. But the affidavit made it look like he was stalking that house since June 2022 when he first moved out here from PA. If he knew them before that, it might be a connection, and he planned this all out a long time ago to attend school close by at WSU for some reason related to the planning of the crime.
 
He also applied for an internship with the Pullman Police Dept per the affidavit.
 
ZeeOSix,

Do you think this was a trill kill or maybe he had romantic ambition towards one of the females he killed ?
 
I can only assume and hope they come up with more evidence.
It makes good reading but reading others thoughts (not in here), really the only thing connecting him so far is the knife sheath. Nothing else connects him physically to the home at that time of night on that night. A defense could create a reasonable doubt with something that I have no idea what at this point except him to say he hasn't seen that knife in a long time.

Im only saying this as we still are in the dark on what happened that night, including with the surviving house mates/friends.
Dont misunderstand my post, Im just thinking they need more and what with this little bit of cell phone tracking ect... a defense team might be able to do.
I suspect they will have more DNA to place him at the scene. What we just read was enough to charge him. It's really a puzzling story one of which I am sure everyone will know in a couple months.

I think all the cell phone and car tracking that all coincide in this case is pretty solid evidence at this point to also tie in his DNA at the crime scene. The night of the crime, his cell phone tracked him making some bizarre way out of the way travel route from Pullman to Moscow ... why would he do that on that late night? Could be they find other info related to the USMC Kabar knife at this apartment or info on his computer where he bought one on-line or similar info. And who knows what they will find in the Elantra or even at his parent's house with they also had a search warrant for. We are just seeing the tip of the iceberg IMO.

Hard to say at this point. It was shown by sluths that he was following two or three of the girls on social media ... more stalking perhaps? He also has a history of acting stange with women, so he could be targeting them for reasons along those lines. As this all unfolds, I think you will see a very disturbed personality. Someone on YouTube actually showed a social media chat board and screenshots (way before Kolhberg was caught) of where this guy posting (using an avatar showing a nose and eye that looked just like Kohlberg's) was making detailed posts about the crime scene which now seem really accurate. Just search for YT member "Crime Circus" and his video titled "Bryan Kohberger CONFESSIONS Online?!?! NEW UPDATES - Moscow". I bet he was on-line watching and maybe posting, and I'm sure the FBI is all over that kind of evidence too, and something they may determine by examining his home and/or work computer. The FBI is pretty powerful in what they can dig into and obtain these days.

I don’t disagree with you and I think I mentioned that, what else we will find out in a trial.
Playing defense attorney with the information that we currently know and nothing has him in the house other than a knife sheath as far as they let us know at this point in time.

I do believe with the nature of the crime like this, they will find DNA evidence from the victims someplace in his car, possessions, apartment, or in Pennsylvania if they haven’t already.
I do agree the cell tower information is further evidence, but it is circumstantial at this point, it tells a story but doesn’t put him in the house.
I do find it amazing how they put it all together, I am just hoping if he is guilty for something more being this is already so bizarre with the housemates as it is.
