    Police apparently took DNA from the scene, ran it through a public database, and then used genetic genealogy techniques to connect the DNA to Kohberger through his family members, CNN said…

    Was he the alleged stalker?

    Cellphone data revealed that Kohberger, 28, was often in the same location as students Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, who were murdered on Nov. 13, a source close to one of the case’s investigators told The Daily Mail.

    Bryan Kohberger’s classmates begin to speak out


    Classmates of the Idaho quadruple murder suspect have said he became more chatty in their criminology class after November’s quadruple-slaying – but turned silent when the killings themselves were discussed.

    Bryan Kohberger, 28, was taken into custody by the Pennsylvania State Police on Friday morning more than 2,000 miles from where four university students were killed in their beds on November 13.

    Students who attended Washington State University with Kohberger were shocked to learn that the quiet man in their classroom was the prime suspect in the brutal slaying.

    BK Norton, who was in the same criminal justice graduate program with Kohberger, said her classmate appeared more animated and talkative following the murders. 

    ‘He seemed more upbeat and willing to carry a conversation,’ she told the New York Times.

    But Norton noted all his enthusiasm would go away and he would become ‘quiet and deadpan’ when the class would discuss the Idaho murder case. 

    Another video that has made rounds declares Kohberger was a heroin user..

  • Idaho murders: Expert says Law enforcement should not dismiss ‘incel’ angle

    Idaho murders: Expert says Law enforcement should not dismiss ‘incel’ angle

    Forensic psychologist Kris Mohandie said that the brutal nature of the murders, combined with the appearance of the victims as popular students on campus, leads him to believe that law enforcement should take a close look at the suspect potentially being an “incel.” 

    Incel, which is short for involuntary celibate, refers to a misogynistic subculture of romantically frustrated men who frequently share their anger online about not being able to find a partner. 

    “There’s a lot of hatred and anger that is evidenced in these crimes – the level of violence, the resolve, the obvious hostility in such a personal hands-on attack,” Mohandie told Fox News Digital. “That is a lot of intensity. So it is not inconsistent with somebody that may have that kind of motivation. There’s something hateful and rage filled about it.”

  • Reporters ask police: Could Idaho University stabbings be connected to previous knife crime in another city?

    Reporters ask police: Could Idaho University stabbings be connected to previous knife crime in another city?

    There is some added speculation and intrigue concerning the university of Ohio stabbings. The murder captivated and shocked a campus city and state alike.

    There are some new indications that privately investigators have been open to the possibility that there could be connections to previous crimes in different locations..

    Reporters at a news briefing Wednesday asked Moscow police about the possible connection between the students’ slayings and a second unsolved stabbing, which left Travis Juetten dead and seriously injured his wife Jamilyn in Oregon.

    Authorities say an intruder attacked the couple in their sleep around 3 a.m. on Aug. 13, 2021.

    Travis Juetten, 26, fought back but succumbed to his injuries. His wife, who is 26 now, survived 19 stab wounds.

    “We’re looking at every avenue, and we have other agencies reaching out to us with other cases, stuff that we are going to follow up on,” Moscow Police Chief James Fry said Wednesday. He said his office knew about the case and was looking into it, but no official connection has been drawn between the two cases.

    The following morning, the Idaho Tribune reported that a third nearby attack shared similar characteristics.

    The New York Times reporting:

    1,000+ tips to cops
    • 103 pieces of evidence
    • 150+ interviews conducted

    The police continue to work through the Thanksgiving holiday weekend in Moscow Idaho.
