Julia Cowley, a retired FBI profiler and the host of The Consult podcast, and I set out to discuss the University of Idaho murders and the killer of four college students, Bryan Kohberger. But something strange happened when we began discussing the survivors who were in the house.It was during a week when a beloved podcaster, friend, and researcher for this podcast died. In this emotionally charged bonus, we explore grief, trauma, and the importance of kindness within the true crime community and in life. Our conversation touches on how loss, children and age have changed the way we view true crime stories.NOTE: In July 2025, those roommates, Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, broke their silence at Kohberger's sentencing in the murders of 20-year-olds Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, and 21-year-olds Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen.

In the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, someone entered a house just off the University of Idaho campus in a brazen home invasion that left four University of Idaho students — Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves — dead. Julia Cowley, a retired FBI profiler and host of The Consult podcast, joins me to continue on conversation about what we can learn from the behavior of the real-life nightmare that is the suspect, Bryan Kohberger.Contact me at silverliningshandbookpod@gmail.comCheck out the Silver Linings Handbook website at:https://silverliningshandbook.com/Check out our Patreon to support the show at:https://www.patreon.com/thesilverliningshandbookJoin our Facebook Group at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1361159947820623Visit the Silver Linings Handbook store to support the podcast at:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-silver-linings-handbook-podcast-storeVisit The True Crime Times Substack at:https://truecrimemessenger.substack.comThe Silver Linings Handbook podcast is a part of the ART19 network.

In November 2022, four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin—were brutally murdered in an off-campus house in Moscow, Idaho. The shocking crime sent fear through the small college town and sparked a nationwide obsession with finding the killer. In Part 1, we walk through the victims' backgrounds, the timeline of that tragic night, the discovery of the crime scene, and the early days of the investigation that left police and the public desperate for answers.

"Too Disturbing to See”: Judge Blocks Graphic Kohberger Crime Scene Photos-WEEK IN REVIEW Should the worst moments of someone's life be public forever? In this gripping episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we unpack a powerful new court ruling in the Bryan Kohberger case—one that challenges how far the public's right to know really goes. Idaho Judge Megan Marshall has officially barred the release of graphic crime scene photos depicting the slain bodies of four University of Idaho students: Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Why does this matter? Because we're living in an age where “transparency” often doubles as clickbait. The photos in question, described by the judge as “incredibly disturbing,” were requested under Idaho's Public Records Act. But citing emotional trauma to the families and legal precedent around survivor privacy, the court drew a clear line: some truths don't need to be seen to be known. We break down the legal framework behind the ruling, including the landmark National Archives v. Favish decision and the Ninth Circuit's recognition of post-mortem privacy. We also explore the tension between legitimate public interest and pure morbid curiosity—especially in the digital age where true crime content gets instantly repurposed, decontextualized, and weaponized online. What gets lost when we treat victim imagery as “just another post”? And what do we actually gain when the system chooses dignity over spectacle? This is not just a legal story—it's a cultural reckoning. One that asks: Is it justice if the families suffer more after the verdict is in? Watch now as we separate justice from voyeurism—and explain why this ruling may reshape the future of transparency in high-profile true crime cases.

ChatGPT said:Several theories have emerged to explain why Bryan Kohberger might have murdered the four University of Idaho students, but none have been conclusively proven. One of the most prevalent theories is that Kohberger, a criminal justice Ph.D. student, was motivated by a twisted desire to commit the “perfect crime” and study the aftermath firsthand. His academic background and fascination with criminology fueled speculation that he was conducting some kind of real-world experiment in human behavior, violence, and law enforcement response. Some believe he saw the victims—particularly the popular and outgoing personalities of Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen—as symbolic targets for his resentment, projecting his own social isolation and perceived failures onto them.Another theory suggests the killings were more personal than academic. Reports indicate Kohberger may have followed the victims on social media and potentially visited the area multiple times before the murders. This raises the possibility of a growing obsession, perhaps unreciprocated or unnoticed by the victims, that spiraled into rage. The brutality of the crime—four people stabbed in their sleep—suggests a level of emotional intensity that points to more than detached curiosity. Whether it was resentment, rejection, a need for control, or some pathological fixation, the act appears deeply premeditated and full of personal symbolism. Yet with Kohberger offering no clear motive, and the public still left with unanswered questions, speculation continues to fill the vacuum where truth remains tightly sealed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Why did Bryan Kohberger kill?

TW: Gewaltverbrechen, Mord, psychologische Belastung Vier junge Menschen. Ein Zuhause voller Lachen. Und eine Nacht, die alles zerstört. Am 13. November 2022 wird die amerikanische Universitätsstadt Moscow, Idaho, zum Schauplatz eines der erschütterndsten Verbrechen der jüngeren US-Geschichte. In einem Studentenhaus nahe des Campus werden vier Studierende brutal im Schlaf ermordet - ohne Vorwarnung, ohne klares Motiv, und scheinbar ohne Spuren. Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle und Ethan Chapin – sie waren beste Freunde, voller Pläne, Träume und Zuversicht. Ihre Namen gingen um die Welt. Als „Idaho Four“ wurden sie zum Symbol für einen Albtraum, der selbst Ermittler an ihre Grenzen brachte. In dieser Folge erzählen wir ihre Geschichte. Vom letzten Abend voller Leichtigkeit, über die Nacht der Tat, die Spurensuche in einem digitalen Labyrinth - bis zur Festnahme eines Täters, der sich selbst als Student der Kriminologie bezeichnete und schwieg, als es um das Warum ging. Es ist ein Fall über Wut, Schweigen, Verlust und über die Frage, ob man das Böse wirklich erkennen kann. Für Kaylee, Maddie, Xana und Ethan. +++ Euch gefällt unser Podcast und ihr wollt uns unterstützen?

Hotel Clerk EXPOSES Kohberger ENCOUNTER — Freakout, Flirting, and Chilling Knife Talk Before Bryan Kohberger became the central figure in the horrifying University of Idaho quadruple murder case, there were warning signs—small, chilling moments that now feel impossible to ignore. In this gripping episode of Hidden Killers, we unravel a newly uncovered police report detailing a disturbing encounter Kohberger had with a hotel clerk in Pullman, Washington, just five months before the brutal killings of Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Kaylee Goncalves, and Madison Mogen. Kohberger reportedly stormed into the hotel lobby, furious over what he believed was a double charge on his Expedia booking. But once the young female clerk corrected the issue, his demeanor shifted—fast. He suddenly turned on the charm, smiling, apologizing, and even flirting. But what came next was far worse. The very next day, he cornered the clerk again—this time in the hallway. What followed was a conversation she would never forget: a casual discussion about knife sheaths, collecting knives, and self-defense weapons. At the time, she shrugged it off as strange. Today, in the shadow of one of the most infamous true crime cases of our time, it reads like a red flag flapping in the wind. Was this one of many encounters where Kohberger let the mask slip—just for a moment? We break it all down in this atmospheric, emotionally grounded true crime deep dive. If you're looking for the eerie breadcrumbs that led to the Moscow murders, this episode connects one of the most disturbing dots yet.

In July 2025, the families of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin finally faced convicted killer Bryan Kohberger in court. In powerful victim impact statements, they spoke of grief, fury, and resilience—while the world waited to see if Kohberger would break his silence and explain why.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/X7H24DzEPnI Due to numerous public records requests in the Bryan Kohberger Case, law enforcement agencies in Idaho released over 200 crime scene photos online, some of which depict the victims, albeit blurred. Though it was blurred it still leaves room for the imagination and recommended that it be blacked out redactions. This widespread release occurred because the case did not go to trial, meaning the photos didn't undergo the official sealing process typically seen in court proceedings like the Alex Murdaugh case. The lack of judicial oversight in the release process of the Bryan Kohberger Case led to a lawsuit against the city of Moscow. Madison Mogen's mother, Karen Laramie, requested a temporary restraining order (TRO) after redacted crime scene photos were released. On August 15th, Idaho Second District Judge Marshall issued a TRO, blocking the city from releasing any further images, audio, or video depicting the inside of Madison Mogen's bedroom until a preliminary injunction hearing on August 21st. While the TRO specifically applies to Mogen's bedroom, the city has stated it will not release photos or videos from any victim's bedroom until the court fully reviews the matter. The attorney representing the families, Leander James, emphasized that the families want peace and not conflict, and urged the public to avoid viewing the photos.

Bryan Kohberger's 3 Prison Complaint Letters EXPOSED! Sexual Harassment, Flooding And Bad Meals! Bryan Kohberger, the man convicted of brutally murdering four University of Idaho students in November 2022, is already struggling to adapt to life inside the Idaho Maximum Security Institution — and his own handwritten prison letter reveals just how desperate he's become. On July 30th, just one day after being placed in J-Block, Kohberger filed a formal transfer request. In his letter, he claimed he was being subjected to “minute-by-minute verbal threats/harassment” and asked to be moved to B-Block immediately. Prison officials denied his plea, telling him to “give it some time.” But Kohberger didn't stop there. Only five days later, he submitted another complaint — this time alleging sexual harassment from fellow inmates. He reported being targeted with explicit threats, including: “I'll b*** f*** you.” “The only a** we'll be eating is Kohberger's.” Again, his request for relocation was denied. Guards confirmed vulgar language was directed at him but said they couldn't identify the inmates responsible. Prison officials concluded Kohberger “feels safe to remain” in J-Block. This chilling development paints a grim picture of Kohberger's new reality. Once a criminology PhD student studying the criminal mind, he now finds himself the target of psychological warfare behind bars — taunted through ventilation systems, mocked relentlessly, and stripped of the control he once craved. Beyond the prison walls, newly released documents and forensic details continue to reveal disturbing patterns from Kohberger's past. Professors at Washington State University had flagged him for erratic and predatory behavior long before the murders. Investigators also believe he may have left handprints — even a possible faceprint — on the victims' home. For the families of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, Kohberger's complaints about harassment inside prison will never balance the loss they carry every single day. But they do show one thing clearly: the man who once sought to control others is now living in a world where he controls nothing. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #TrueCrime #PrisonLife #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #Justice #IdahoCase #PrisonNews #CourtCase Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Vi håber, I kan tåle et lille ekstraafsnit op til weekenden? 30-årige Bryan Kohberger har fået sin dom, og der er meget at tale om.I november 2022 sneg en maskeret, mørkklædt mand sig ind i et hus i universitetsbyen Moscow i den amerikanske delstat Idaho midt om natten. Først var han inde på det værelse, hvor de to bedste veninder på 21 år, Kaylee Goncalves og Madison Mogen, delte seng. Derefter listede han ind til kæresteparret Xana Kernodle og Ethan Chapin, begge 20 år, på etagen nedenunder. Da han forlod huset igen efter omkring 10 minutter, var det før så rare og livlige bofællesskab forvandlet til en scene fra en horrorfilm.Nyheden om det firedobbelte drab eksploderede i medierne, og fik ikke mindre opmærksomhed, da den mistænkte viste sig at være en ung kriminologistuderende, som tilsyneladende ingen forbindelse havde til de dræbte unge. Eller havde han? Var det ham, der havde forfulgt og beluret Kaylee i tiden op til hendes voldelige død? Vi taler om, hvad der skete i huset i Moscow den nat, om den stalking, Kaylee oplevede før drabene, om hvem Bryan Kohberger er, og selvfølgelig om retssagen og dommen. Der er meget at vende - så det gør vi.Assisterende klip: Anders EskeMusik: Bensound

As the trial date shifts again, Dr. Phil breaks down the psychology of the suspect and the defense's strategy in one of the most chilling murder cases in recent memory. What's taking so long?

He also revisits his chilling criminal profile from the early days of the case, exploring the “Dark Triad” and how it may apply to Kohberger's alleged behavior.

Newly released Bryan Kohberger surveillance video and new crime scene photos from Moscow Police are giving the public a haunting new look into the Idaho4 murders. The disturbing images and footage reveal more chilling details about Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin in their last hours. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime. Emmy Award-Winning Host Joel Waldman brings us the latest updates in the Idaho4 case. Bryan Kohberger, the man convicted of brutally murdering the four University of Idaho students known as the Idaho4, will now spend the rest of his life behind bars in a maximum-security prison with no chance of parole. In the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, Kohberger entered the off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho, and viciously killed Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin in a crime that shocked the nation. The case drew global attention as investigators pieced together DNA evidence, cell phone data, and surveillance footage to link Kohberger to the scene. Now, sentenced to life without the possibility of release, he will remain in isolation under strict supervision, serving his time in one of the most secure facilities in the country.More of STS:Links: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast#truecrimecommunity #truecrimestories #stsnation #truestory #bryankohberger #justiceforvictims #idaho4update #murdermystery #newsupdate #criminaljustice #crimenews
What began as a typical game day celebration for University of Idaho students would end in unimaginable horror on Saturday, November 12, 2022. Xana Kernodle, a marketing junior, spent the day with friends, including her boyfriend Ethan Chapin and housemates Dylan, Bethany, Kaylee and Maddie at their shared home on 1122 King Road. After parties and celebrations, the group returned home in the early hours of Sunday morning. At around 4am, Dylan heard disturbing sounds. When she cracked her door open, Dylan saw a masked man with bushy eyebrows holding what looked like a vacuum cleaner. The next day, when upstairs roommates wouldn't answer their phones, friends discovered the bodies of Xana, Ethan, Kaylee and Maddie - all brutally stabbed to death. Vicky Ward, co-author of The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy, joins Claire to explore this devastating case. You can find her book here.

At the center of this tragic story are four innocent victims: Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin.

In this final part, CEO of the National Center for Victims of Crime Renée Williams discusses how the organization works to support families of crime victims as they navigate tragedy. She later explains how listeners can advocate and uplift victims in similar cases.

Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty to murdering four University of Idaho student but there were always red flags. This is one of the reasons Bryan Kohberger was denied when he tried to be a part of the Pullman Police Dept. Former Pullman Police Chief joins STS about his interaction with Idaho Killer Bryan Kohberger. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime. In this episode STS Host, Joel Waldman, interviews Former Pullman Police Chief Gary Jenkins about what he noticed about Kohberger--and what happened as the breaking news unfolded. Bryan Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student, pleaded guilty on July 2, 2025, to the November 13, 2022 home‑invasion stabbing murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Facing charges of four counts of first‑degree murder and one count of felony burglary, Kohberger accepted a plea deal that spares him the death penalty in exchange for four consecutive life sentences plus an extra 10 years, with no possibility of appeal. Prosecutors secured a conviction based on DNA evidence from a knife sheath and Q‑tip, along with cell‑tower data and surveillance footage, though the motive remains officially unknown. Now awaiting sentencing on July 23, the controversial plea—welcomed by some families seeking closure but strongly opposed by others—has ignited widespread debate and media coverage.More of STS:Links: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast
Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, four University of Idaho students in their 20s, were brutally murdered inside their off-campus home in the early morning hours on November 13, 2022. Two surviving roommates and a heartwrenching 911 call led police to discover the friends stabbed to death inside the three-story house at 1122 King Road. The safe place that once rang with parties, TikTok dances and laughter, was eerily silenced, surrounded by a nationwide media circus and sealed with crime scene tape. The murderer, Bryan Kohberger, a Ph.D student at Washington State University, pled guilty to all counts in exchange for the death penalty to be taken off the table. But still, the families of the victims, and everyone who has been consumed by this case since day one, want to know why Kohberger took these innocent lives.Made With Kindness is a nonprofit organization started in honor of Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, and Xana Kernodle.
