Did Bryan Kohberger Kill to Impress His Professor FBI Profiler Robin Dreeke Breaks It Down In this gripping episode, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke dives into one of the most bizarre and controversial theories in the Bryan Kohberger case: the idea that Kohberger may have committed the murders of four University of Idaho students to impress his former professor, Dr. Katherine Ramsland. This theory, reported by journalist Howard Blum, has drawn comparisons to John Hinckley Jr.'s attempted assassination of President Reagan to impress actress Jodie Foster. But is it psychologically plausible? Dreeke, who once led the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, brings his deep expertise in motive, delusion, and high-risk behavioral patterns to break down the facts. Could Kohberger's academic obsession with serial killers have blurred the line between research and reality? Did he see his alleged crime as a twisted form of validation from a mentor he idolized? We explore how common—or rare—this type of motive actually is, what kind of psychological markers are typically present, and what kind of evidence investigators would need to verify such a theory in court. Dreeke also explains why the absence of hard proof doesn't necessarily mean the theory is wrong—it just makes it legally dangerous to rely on it without corroboration. Whether you believe the "impress the professor" theory or not, Dreeke helps cut through the noise to reveal what behaviors actually matter in assessing this case. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to understand the psychology behind one of the most confusing and disturbing alleged motives in recent true crime history.

From Student to Suspect Did Kohberger Turn Ramsland's Teachings into Murder Could Bryan Kohberger have transformed from criminology student to accused killer as a way to "show his work" to a professor he idolized? That's the chilling theory raised by journalist Howard Blum—and in this episode of Hidden Killers, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke is here to dig into it. Dr. Katherine Ramsland, Kohberger's former professor and one of the foremost experts on serial killers, has never commented publicly on her former student. But Blum's reporting alleges that Kohberger emailed her before and after the murders—and that the killings may have been a twisted performance piece to earn her intellectual admiration. Dreeke brings his behavioral profiling expertise to dissect this theory. What kind of mindset does it take to commit a quadruple homicide as a form of symbolic achievement? And what role does ego—particularly in academically driven narcissists—play in escalating obsession into violence? Together, we examine whether Kohberger was trying to become the embodiment of what he studied. Was he staging a real-life case to rival those in Ramsland's books? Or was it something even darker—a final exam, so to speak, intended to impress the very person who taught him how to analyze the criminal mind?

“Murder for Mentorship FBI Profiler Explores Kohberger's Alleged Obsession with Ramsland” Was the motive for one of the most haunting mass killings in recent history not rage, not revenge—but academic admiration? In this exclusive interview, Tony Brueski sits down with former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to dissect the Howard Blum theory that Bryan Kohberger may have murdered four students as a twisted gesture to impress his former criminology professor, Dr. Katherine Ramsland. This theory has captivated and unsettled the public, offering a motive that feels ripped straight from a psychological thriller. But Dreeke—who specialized in decoding human behavior and threat assessments—helps bring it back down to earth. What would it take, behaviorally, for someone to develop that kind of obsessive admiration? And does Kohberger's background support such a profile? We examine Ramsland's influence in Kohberger's academic career, the behavioral patterns that suggest fixation, and how rare it actually is for a student to turn to violence in a bid for academic approval. Dreeke also weighs in on the kind of evidence—emails, journals, statements—that would be required to take this theory from “clickbait” to courtroom credibility. This episode doesn't just theorize—it dissects, challenges, and investigates. If you've been following the Kohberger case and wondering how credible the Ramsland motive theory really is, you won't want to miss this deeply informed discussion.

Did Bryan Kohberger Kill to Impress His Professor, Dr. Katherine Ramsland? Howard Blum Thinks So In this episode, Tony Brueski takes a deep dive into one of the most unsettling and psychologically complex theories in the Bryan Kohberger case: the claim that the murders were committed as a twisted attempt to impress his former professor, Dr. Katherine Ramsland. This idea, originally reported by Howard Blum, suggests that Kohberger—a criminology PhD student with an intense academic background in serial killer studies—may have crossed the line between student and subject. Using the three-part narrative breakdown, we explore the factual history between Kohberger and Ramsland, the reported but unconfirmed communications, and the chilling psychological theory that this was Kohberger's way of saying, "Look what I can do." If true, this would place Kohberger's motive in a rare psychological category: admiration-fueled symbolic violence. This wasn't about revenge. It wasn't about the victims. It may have been about validation—from someone who had no idea she was being idolized. Is this theory fact or just media myth? Join Tony as he dissects the known facts, separates evidence from rumor, and lays out the case for and against this deeply disturbing motive.

In November 2022, four University of Idaho students—Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Kaylee Goncalves—were found brutally murdered in an off-campus house in Moscow, Idaho. The suspect, Bryan Kohberger, was arrested in late December 2022.Key evidence in the case includes DNA found on a knife sheath left at the crime scene, which matched DNA from Kohberger's family's trash in Pennsylvania. Surveillance footage traced a white Hyundai Elantra, owned by Kohberger, near the crime scene around the time of the murders. Additionally, cell phone records showed Kohberger's phone was near the victims' residence on multiple occasions prior to the murders, though it was turned off during the time the murders occurred​.Kohberger, a criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University, exhibited an interest in criminal psychology and crime scene analysis. He has pleaded not guilty and his defense suggests he was out driving at the time of the murders.Now, after the relase of a book detailing the murders by author Howard Blum, the Gocalves family is bashing that book and saying it's a work of fiction.In our second article, we get an update on what we might expect today at Bryan Kohberger's hearing.(commercial at 8:07)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger Book Slammed By Victim's Family - Newsweek

Who Will Be Called To The Stand In Kohberger's Idaho Murders Trial In 2025? Have you ever wondered what the people closest to a suspected killer *really* think? In the case of Bryan Kohberger, it's not just whispers from the neighbors or the speculation of casual acquaintances—it's a chilling uncertainty from those who know him best. We delve into the revealing conversations that Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Howard Blum unearthed while investigating the Kohberger family, and it raises an unsettling point: even the parents of the accused, while publicly supporting him, never explicitly claim to believe in his innocence. Is that a sign of doubt, or just careful wording?   But here's where it gets eerier. Behavioral analysis expert Robin Dreeke breaks down the critical, yet often overlooked, clues that come from those around an alleged criminal. Happy, likable people rarely commit heinous acts, and their relationships tend to reflect that. So, what does it mean when the people closest to Kohberger seem to consider the possibility that he could be capable of brutal violence? It makes you wonder: if even those closest to him have doubts, what does that really say about the person at the center of this nightmare? What would you do if someone you loved was accused of an unspeakable crime? #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #FBIAnalysis #BehavioralClues #CrimeInvestigation #Podcast Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In November 2022, four University of Idaho students—Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Kaylee Goncalves—were found brutally murdered in an off-campus house in Moscow, Idaho. The suspect, Bryan Kohberger, was arrested in late December 2022.Key evidence in the case includes DNA found on a knife sheath left at the crime scene, which matched DNA from Kohberger's family's trash in Pennsylvania. Surveillance footage traced a white Hyundai Elantra, owned by Kohberger, near the crime scene around the time of the murders. Additionally, cell phone records showed Kohberger's phone was near the victims' residence on multiple occasions prior to the murders, though it was turned off during the time the murders occurred​.Kohberger, a criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University, exhibited an interest in criminal psychology and crime scene analysis.

The book provides an in-depth look at the individuals involved in the Idaho student murders, particularly focusing on the paternal support provided by Bryan Kohberger's father. This dynamic echoes the support seen in the Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie case. The conversation touches on the father's actions, such as accompanying Kohberger on a cross-country drive after the incident and suspicious behaviors like cleaning his car with bleach. The discussion raises questions about the extent of the father's knowledge or involvement, especially since he has not attended any of Kohberger's hearings. Faddis suggests that the father's absence could be due to potential legal implications, as he might be called to testify about his conversations with his son during the drive and subsequent events. The book and discussion shed light on the complexities and familial dynamics at play in this tragic case. **Main Points:** - Discussion of Howard Blum's book "When the Night Comes Falling: A Requiem for the Idaho Student Murders." - Focus on Bryan Kohberger's father and his paternal support. - Comparison to the Gabby Petito and Brian Laundrie case. - Father's suspicious actions, including cleaning Kohberger's car with bleach. - Father's absence from Kohberger's hearings and potential legal implications. - Questions about the father's knowledge or involvement in the incident. - Book provides an in-depth look at the individuals affected by the Idaho student murders. **Hashtags:** #KarenRead #EricFaddis #TonyBrueski #BryanKohberger #IdahoStudentMurders #HowardBlum #PaternalSupport Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

A conversation with investigative reporter Howard Blum who's written a new book about the Idaho murders that pieces together more details from that night and its aftermath.  

In a startling revelation, an explosive new book claims Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the brutal murders of four Idaho college students, had a single target on the night of the crime. According to investigative journalist Howard Blum's forthcoming book, *When the Night Comes Falling: A Requiem for the Idaho Student Murders*, Kohberger intended to kill Madison Mogen specifically, dispelling notions of a random killing spree. Blum's book, set to be released on June 25, unveils significant details about the tragic night in November 2022 when Mogen, along with Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, lost their lives. “Officials believe Kohberger was after Mogen because he passed the rooms of two surviving roommates before starting the killing spree,” Blum explained in an interview with ABC News. “If he was just on a killing spree, it would have been natural, instinctive, to go to one of those doors. Instead, he goes up this narrow staircase and he turns directly into Maddie's room, and I think Maddie was his target.” Further compounding the tragedy, Blum reveals that Kohberger's family had harbored suspicions about him even before his arrest. Kohberger's father, Michael, reportedly felt uneasy when he picked up his son from school after the murders. “[Michael] has been reading the headlines - he knows that four students were killed 12 miles from his son's house. He knows what a troubled son he has,” Blum noted. Despite these concerns, Michael did not confront his son about the possible connection. The book also details an instance where one of Kohberger's sisters approached their father to voice her suspicions. However, Michael chose to dismiss her concerns. “He can't confront it,” Blum said about Michael's reaction at the time. On the night of the murders, the two surviving roommates, Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, reportedly used their cellphones to communicate during and after the incident. Mortensen, 21, allegedly called out to her friends and roommates during the early morning hours of November 13 to quiet down. “Calm down, you're being loud!” she reportedly yelled around 4 a.m., followed by, “I'm trying to sleep!” Mortensen later opened her door and saw Kohberger, whom she believed to be a partygoer, walking past her toward the back exit of the house. Law enforcement determined that the four students were killed between 4 and 4:25 a.m., but it took another eight hours before police were called to the off-campus residence. In December 2022, Kohberger was arrested in Pennsylvania at his parents' house and charged with the murders. Despite the mounting evidence, Kohberger has pled not guilty. His trial has yet to be scheduled, as prosecutors and defense attorneys continue to wrangle over the evidence and other data gathered throughout the investigation. A hearing on June 27 will discuss the schedule for the rest of the case, including dates for the trial and possible sentencing. In a significant development earlier this month, a judge allowed investigators working for Kohberger's defense team to review sealed DNA records used to narrow the pool of potential suspects. The DNA was crucial in the investigative genetic genealogy process, which involves running material found at the crime scene through public genealogical databases to identify suspects or their relatives. Kohberger's attorneys are also seeking a change of venue, a request that the judge has yet to rule on. The case continues to grip the nation, with the upcoming book by Blum expected to shed more light on the complexities and heartbreaking details of the murders. *When the Night Comes Falling: A Requiem for the Idaho Student Murders* promises to be a revealing account, offering new insights and provoking further questions about one of the most shocking crimes in recent memory.
