Bryan Kohberger wasn't invisible. He wasn't quiet. According to a new lawsuit filed by the families of his four victims, Washington State University received at least 13 formal complaints about his threatening, stalking, and predatory behavior in a single semester—and allegedly failed to act in any meaningful way. Today on True Crime Today, former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke breaks down what these warning signs mean from a professional threat assessment perspective. Robin served 21 years with the Bureau, including as Chief of the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, and he specializes in understanding the behavioral patterns that precede violence. The lawsuit describes WSU faculty and staff creating informal warning systems because they felt the institution wouldn't protect them. A professor allegedly predicted Kohberger would sexually abuse students if given a PhD. Women reportedly needed security escorts to their cars. Students fled classrooms. And according to the families' complaint, WSU chose not to remove Kohberger—allegedly because doing so might expose the university to a lawsuit. Robin explains why institutions make that calculation, what 13 complaints in one semester should trigger operationally, and how threat assessment programs are supposed to function when warning signs stack up this high. The families are calling these murders "foreseeable and preventable." Robin weighs in on whether they're right—and what needs to change so this doesn't happen again.#TrueCrimeToday #BryanKohberger #WSULawsuit #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #RobinDreeke #ThreatAssessment #UniversitySafetyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
A faculty member at Washington State University allegedly looked at Bryan Kohberger and told colleagues: Mark my words—if we give this guy a PhD, we'll hear about him harassing, stalking, and sexually abusing students. That wasn't hindsight. That was foresight. And according to a new lawsuit filed by the families of the four murdered Idaho students, it was one of at least 13 formal complaints WSU allegedly ignored before Kohberger drove seven miles to Moscow and killed four people in their beds. Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Hidden Killers to analyze what this level of institutional awareness—and alleged inaction—means from a behavioral threat assessment perspective. Robin spent 21 years with the Bureau, including time as Chief of the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, and he's seen what happens when warning signs get buried by bureaucracy. The lawsuit details staff developing their own informal "911" alert system to warn each other when Kohberger was nearby. Women needing security escorts to their cars. Students fleeing classrooms mid-lecture. A professor keeping a tally board of his discriminatory comments. Robin breaks down what these behaviors signal, how threat assessments are supposed to function, and why institutions so often choose perceived legal protection over actual safety. We'll discuss whether these murders were truly "foreseeable and preventable"—the exact language from the lawsuit—and what it takes to intervene before someone like Kohberger acts on what everyone around him allegedly saw coming. This is an essential conversation about accountability, institutional failure, and the cost of inaction.#BryanKohberger #HiddenKillers #WSULawsuit #IdahoStudentMurders #KayleeGoncalves #ThreatAssessment #RobinDreeke #FBI #TitleIX #TrueCrimePodcastJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Women on the Washington State University campus built survival systems to avoid Bryan Kohberger. A tally board tracking his comments. Emails with "911" in the subject line. Security escorts to their cars. A door strategy so no one would be trapped alone with him.According to a 126-page lawsuit filed by the families of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, at least 13 formal complaints were filed against Kohberger in just three months during fall 2022. A professor who worked with predators urged colleagues to cut his funding. She told them directly: "If we give him a Ph.D., that's the guy we will hear is harassing, stalking, and sexually abusing his students."The university didn't act. Five days before four students were murdered, WSU held mandatory discrimination training for Kohberger's cohort — because of him. Less than two weeks before the killings, faculty met with him about his behavior. No decisive action was taken.Meanwhile, Bryan's sister Mel Kohberger has broken three years of silence in a New York Times interview. She describes Christmas 2022 — warning her brother about the "psycho killer on the loose" near his apartment, never imagining he was the suspect. She talks about his heroin addiction, his recovery, the childhood bullying that shaped him, and the heart she drew for him that tabloids called a "creepy drawing."The lawsuit alleges WSU calculated that a potential discrimination lawsuit from Kohberger was a bigger risk than the violence he might commit. The families of four murdered students are now demanding transparency, accountability, and reform.This wasn't a case of warning signs being missed. According to the lawsuit, they were documented and ignored.#BryanKohberger #WSULawsuit #IdahoMurders #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #MelKohberger #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The families of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin have united to file a massive lawsuit against Washington State University. The 126-page complaint alleges WSU ignored at least 13 formal complaints about Bryan Kohberger's predatory behavior in the months before he murdered four students.The details are staggering. A professor warned colleagues that Kohberger would become a stalker and sexual abuser if given his degree. Women on campus developed emergency protocols — "911" subject lines, escort systems, door strategies — because the institution wouldn't protect them. One student fled into a bathroom to hide from him. Another ran from a classroom in tears after he verbally attacked her.Five days before the murders, WSU held mandatory discrimination training for Kohberger's cohort. The lawsuit alleges a supervisor worried that firing Kohberger could expose WSU to legal action — so they kept him employed, housed, and on campus with full access to students.The families are seeking accountability under Title IX, wrongful death claims, and gross negligence. Their attorneys call what happened "foreseeable — and, in fact, predictable."This episode breaks down the lawsuit, the timeline, and the institutional failures that the families say allowed a known threat to escalate into tragedy.#BryanKohberger #WSULawsuit #IdahoMurders #TrueCrimeToday #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #BreakingNews #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
"Mark my word, I work with predators."That's what a Washington State University professor told her colleagues about Bryan Kohberger in the fall of 2022. She warned them. She urged them to remove him from the program. They didn't.Now, the families of all four Idaho murder victims — Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin — have filed a 126-page wrongful death lawsuit against WSU. The allegations paint a picture of institutional failure at every level.According to the complaint, 13 formal complaints were filed against Kohberger in just three months. The employee responsible for acting on those complaints reportedly never even spoke with him. Female students and staff built their own warning systems: tally boards, "911" emails, door strategies, security escorts. One undergraduate hid in a bathroom to avoid him.Five days before the murders, WSU held mandatory discrimination training because of Kohberger's behavior. Less than two weeks before, faculty confronted him directly. The lawsuit alleges a supervisor worried that removing Kohberger could expose WSU to a lawsuit — from him.They chose the wrong lawsuit to fear.This episode examines the full timeline, the documented red flags, and the families' fight for transparency and accountability. The murders, they argue, were "foreseeable — and, in fact, predictable."#BryanKohberger #WSULawsuit #IdahoMurders #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #TitleIX #TrueCrime #IdahoFourJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The lawsuit the families promised has arrived — and it's worse than anyone expected.All four families of the Idaho murder victims have filed a 126-page complaint against Washington State University, alleging the school knew Bryan Kohberger was dangerous and did nothing to stop him. The filing details at least 13 formal complaints made against Kohberger between August and November 2022 — stalking, harassment, blocking doorways, following women to their cars, and behavior so alarming that female students built their own emergency warning systems.One professor told colleagues directly: "Mark my word, I work with predators. If we give him a Ph.D., that's the guy we will hear is harassing, stalking, and sexually abusing his students." She urged them to cut his funding. They refused.The lawsuit alleges the employee responsible for handling complaints never even spoke with Kohberger. It alleges a supervisor feared firing him could expose WSU to a lawsuit — from the predator himself. So they kept him on payroll, in university housing, with access to students.Five days before the murders: mandatory discrimination training. Less than two weeks before: a faculty intervention meeting.The families call what happened "foreseeable — and, in fact, predictable." They're demanding transparency, accountability, and answers.

The suit claims WSU ignored major red flags about Kohberger, a PhD student, when it came to concerns he was stalking female students on campus. Kohberger was a PhD student and teaching assistant in WSU's criminology department when he murdered Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin.

Three years of silence. Now the truth.Mel Kohberger, sister of convicted Idaho student killer Bryan Kohberger, has given her first interview since her brother's arrest — and what she reveals challenges everything the tabloids have told you about this family.She warned Bryan about the "psycho killer" loose near his apartment. He thanked her and said he'd be careful. Weeks later, FBI agents were smashing through their parents' front door at 4 a.m. to arrest him for being that killer.In this episode, we break down the explosive New York Times interview that dropped January 3rd, 2026. Mel describes a close-knit Catholic family that gathered for stargazing and late-night picnics. A brother who was bullied, struggled with autism, and nearly died from heroin addiction before getting clean and pursuing a PhD. A Christmas gathering where Bryan bandaged her cut finger — disgusted by the sight of blood — days before allegedly stabbing four people to death.She also sets the record straight on the "creepy drawing" tabloids claimed Bryan clutched during sentencing. It wasn't dark. It wasn't sinister. It was a colorful heart she made for him — photocopied and faded — so he'd know someone still loved him.The victims' families deserve justice. But this story has more than one dimension. Today we examine the collateral damage of America's most infamous murder case.#BryanKohberger #KohbergerBreaking #IdahoMurders #KohbergerSister #TrueCrimeToday #IdahoFour #MoscowIdaho #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #TrueCrimeNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Mel Kohberger was training to become a mental health therapist when her brother was arrested for murdering four University of Idaho students. In one phone call, her entire life changed. Her job offer evaporated. Tabloids camped outside her parents' house. Online sleuths picked apart every detail of her family's history — including her sister Amanda's appearance in a 2011 horror film that featured stabbings.For three years, the Kohberger family stayed silent out of respect for the victims' families. Now, in a new interview with The New York Times, Mel is finally telling her side of the story.She reveals the last normal Christmas the family spent together — just days before the FBI raid. She describes her brother's struggles with bullying, autism, and heroin addiction, and the pride the family felt when he seemed to turn his life around. She explains the drawing Bryan held during his sentencing — not a "creepy" symbol, as tabloids claimed, but a colorful heart she made to remind him he was still loved.This isn't a defense of Bryan Kohberger. He pleaded guilty. He's serving four life sentences. This is about what happens to the people connected to someone who commits an unthinkable act — and what the true crime obsession costs the people we never think about.Featuring reporting from The New York Times, CBS News, and ABC News.#BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerSister #TrueCrimePodcast #IdahoStudentMurders #MadisonMogen #KayleeGoncalves #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Texas announced the devastating discovery of the remains of missing 19 year old Camila Olmos. In the early morning hours, law enforcement officials revealed that Kohberger, long named a person of interest in the Idaho student homicides, was taken into custody in Pennsylvania following a multi state investigation that had gripped the nation. Court documents and police sources say the arrest followed weeks of forensic analysis, surveillance, and coordination between state and local agencies, marking a critical turning point in one of the most closely watched murder cases in recent years.At the same time, heartbreak swept through a San Antonio community as the Bexar County Sheriff's Office confirmed that a body believed to be Camila Olmos had been found just a few hundred yards from her home in an area of tall grass near a local landscaping site. Camila had been reported missing days earlier, prompting an urgent missing person search amid concerns for her safety. Authorities disclosed that the case involved reported mental health struggles and possible self harm ideation, details that shaped both the investigation and the public response. Despite multiple search efforts, her body was not located until a second sweep of the area, underscoring how difficult ground searches can be even when the location is painfully close.Former law enforcement officials and investigators have emphasized that these outcomes, while tragic, reflect the complex realities of modern investigations. From the Idaho murders to the Camila Olmos case, both stories highlight the intersection of true crime, mental health, and the immense pressure faced by families and communities waiting for answers. As the legal process moves forward for Bryan Kohberger and Texas authorities continue to finalize identification and investigative findings in Camila's case, questions remain about prevention, transparency, and how warning signs are handled before lives are lost. This developing news story continues to unfold, leaving behind grief, unanswered questions, and a renewed national conversation about violence, missing persons, and justice.#CamilaOlmos #MissingPerson #TrueCrime #BreakingNews #CrimeNews #JusticeForVictims #UniversityOfIdaho #SanAntonioCrime

In this chilling Hidden Killers deep dive, we confront two disturbing revelations about Bryan Kohberger — the kind that point to hidden behavior far beyond what happened on King Road. Retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Program Chief Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to break down the unsettling possibility that Kohberger maintained secret stashes of weapons, stolen items, and trophies — and that investigators may have only scratched the surface. First, we explore the “hidey hole” theory: a private cache where Kohberger may have stored the missing KA-BAR knife, clothing, stolen items, or other evidence he didn't want to destroy. Dreeke draws direct parallels to BTK, Israel Keyes, and Robert Hansen — offenders who built entire systems of hidden drop sites to revisit, relive, and maintain control over their crimes. Kohberger's shovel with tested soil, his repeated trips to remote parks, and a long pattern of break-ins and petty theft suggest this behavior may have been developing for years. But the story gets darker. We also examine the two mystery ID cards found in Kohberger's possession — IDs belonging to women who were not his victims and who may not even know he ever had them. These weren't discovered in plain sight. They were tucked away, hidden in a glove box inside a box. Dreeke explains why offenders sometimes keep items like this: not as accidents, but as trophies, leverage, fantasies, or souvenirs of earlier intrusions. Why would a man who meticulously cleaned his car miss two IDs? He probably didn't. He simply didn't believe they were important to the crime he was trying to erase — a psychological compartmentalization common among escalating offenders. Together, these findings raise chilling questions: • Did Kohberger have a cache? • How many items were hidden? • How many women were surveilled, targeted, or intruded upon? • And how much evidence — or truth — is still buried? This is the behavioral blueprint investigators fear the most: escalation, souvenirs, and secrets carefully tucked away. #BryanKohberger #HiddenKillers #Idaho4 #FBIProfiler #EvidenceStash #TrophyBehavior #TrueCrimePodcast #CriminalPsychology #KnifeCache #RobinDreeke Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In today's explosive Hidden Killers episode, we confront two of the most unsettling questions still hanging over the Bryan Kohberger case: Was he stalking other women long before the murders — and did investigators miss critical evidence that could reveal the full scope of his behavior? Tony Brueski brings together new reporting, behavioral analysis, and expert insight to examine the disturbing possibility that the Moscow murders were not Kohberger's first intrusion — and may not have been his last attempt at gaining control over women he watched, followed, or targeted. Unsealed documents now suggest Kohberger may have entered the King Road home prior to the murders, explaining his precision during the attack. But that revelation unlocks deeper implications when paired with a chilling 2021 break-in in Pullman, where a masked intruder armed with a knife slipped into a home full of sleeping sorority members. Nobody was harmed. But the parallels — the geography, the weapon, the behavioral signature — are impossible to ignore. Was he testing boundaries? Testing fear? Testing himself? Then retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony to analyze whether investigators — despite their massive effort — may have missed key evidence in the chaotic crime scene aftermath. A three-person DNA mixture under a victim's nails, inconsistencies in injury documentation, and the inherent difficulty of processing an ultra-violent, multi-victim scene leave open the question of whether critical clues slipped through the cracks. We examine how crime scene pressure, overwhelming public scrutiny, and the singular focus on Kohberger could have narrowed the investigative lens too soon. Did they catch the right man? Yes. But did they catch every part of what he did? That's a different question. This episode ties it all together — the stalking, the intrusions, the behavioral pattern, and the forensic blind spots — painting a picture of a suspect whose trail may stretch further than the public ever realized. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #HiddenKillers #CriminalPsychology #StalkingBehavior #ForensicAnalysis #JenniferCoffindaffer #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #KohbergerInvestigation Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this explosive Hidden Killers deep-dive, we bring together two of the sharpest minds in criminal profiling—retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Program Chief Robin Dreeke and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer—to expose how Bryan Kohberger failed at every stage of his crime, his aftermath, and even his attempts at psychological control. This episode dissects the myth of Kohberger as a “mastermind” and replaces it with the truth: a man who wanted to be feared, studied, and remembered, but instead collapsed under the weight of his own incompetence. Robin Dreeke breaks down the crumbling psychology beneath Kohberger's persona—his grandiosity, his obsession with superiority, and the fantasy world he tried to construct online as “Papa Roger,” a self-appointed expert who desperately wanted attention. We examine Alivea Goncalves' devastating victim impact statement through the eyes of a behavioral profiler—how her words cut directly through Kohberger's ego and hit the one place he feels pain: his illusion of genius. Then, Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony to unravel the newly uncovered shovel evidence from Pennsylvania—dirt still caked on it, soil samples tested, locations compared. Investigators believed the missing murder weapon or clothing could have been buried. Why? Because this wasn't a mastermind's cleanup. It was frantic, sloppy, and driven by panic, not brilliance. And yet the shovel suggests he still clung to ritual, control, and trophy-keeping impulses. We dig into Kohberger's obsessive pre-crime surveillance, his digital trail, his chaotic crime scene, his compulsive post-crime behavior—and the haunting question: Was he burying evidence, or burying the last scraps of an identity he could no longer maintain? From botched planning to failed manipulation to the possibility of a still-hidden weapon, this episode dismantles Kohberger's mythology and reveals the truth behind the man who wanted to be infamous—yet has become forgettable. #BryanKohberger #HiddenKillers #FBIAnalysis #TrueCrimePodcast #CriminalProfiling #BehavioralAnalysis #IdahoMurders #ForensicEvidence Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this gripping Hidden Killers episode, we go inside the fractured world surrounding Bryan Kohberger — from the secret emotional ties he's maintaining behind bars to the courtroom moment that pierced the last layer of his psychological armor. Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke and defense attorney Bob Motta to dissect the two most unsettling threads emerging from Kohberger's final days in court: his ongoing conversations with his mother, and the viral victim impact statement delivered by Alivea Goncalves. We explore why Kohberger's mother is still communicating with him, what psychological needs those conversations fulfill for him, and why offenders often cling to the last person who still gives them validation. Robin breaks down the emotional leverage and quiet manipulation that can happen even from a prison cell — the ego maintenance, the power dynamic, the distorted sense of control. We also examine the painful question families face when a child commits horrific acts: what does loyalty look like when the truth is unbearable? At the same time, we analyze the courtroom moment that defined sentencing: Alivea Goncalves's direct, devastating statement aimed squarely at Kohberger's identity — his intellect, his superiority, his fantasy narrative of control. Bob explains why her words cut deeper than most victim statements and why Kohberger's cold, rigid demeanor may have been his only remaining defense mechanism. His unblinking stare, tight jaw, and lack of emotion revealed far more than he intended. Together, this episode exposes the emotional and psychological ecosystem around Kohberger — the family ties he still manipulates, the ego he tries to preserve, and the moment in court when someone finally spoke to him in a way he could not ignore. If you want to understand the psychology behind the headlines, this is the breakdown that goes where few analyses ever do. #BryanKohberger #HiddenKillers #AliveaGoncalves #KohbergerMother #TrueCrimePodcast #BehavioralAnalysis #CourtroomPsychology #VictimImpactStatement #FBIProfiler Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this powerful Hidden Killers episode, we examine two sides of the same story: the forensic reality that dismantled Bryan Kohberger's image of intelligence — and the viral victim impact statement that attacked the last thing he had left: his ego. Host Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke take you inside the psychology, behavior, and unraveling facade of a man who once believed he could outsmart everyone. First, we break down Alivea Goncalves' extraordinary statement — a surgical strike aimed directly at Kohberger's psychological pressure points. Her words didn't just describe loss. They deconstructed him. She went after his academic identity, his obsession with control, his need to be seen as superior. For someone built entirely around ego, this was a rare moment where the mask slipped. His rigid posture, clenched jaw, and fixed stare became their own confession. Then we turn to the evidence — the facts that exposed just how fragile Kohberger's “perfect plan” really was. The knife sheath with his DNA. The vehicle match. Cellphone data placing him near the home. Surveillance footage. The failed cover-up attempts. His unusual behavior in the days after the crime. Even Xana Kernodle's fight back, which may have left critical traces that sealed the case. Together, Tony and Robin show how both the emotional truth and the forensic truth converge: Kohberger wasn't the criminal mastermind he imagined. He wasn't in control. And on sentencing day, he couldn't hide from the families, the evidence, or himself. This episode isn't just commentary — it's behavioral and forensic analysis at full depth. If you want to understand why the case collapsed and why Alivea's statement hit him so hard, this is the breakdown you've been waiting for. #HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #AliveaGoncalves #VictimImpactStatement #BehavioralAnalysis #TrueCrimePodcast #KohbergerSentencing #ForensicEvidence Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
