Did PhD Student Plan the Perfect Murder to Gain Infamy? | Bryan Christopher Kohberger Case Analysis

[@SonjaDawn]

I was also a social reject and was rejected brutally, I was also abused at home, but I decided I didn't like being treated that way and would never want to do it to anyone else. There's always more to it than how a person is treated, there's more going on with the person themselves.

[@jameshoward5324]

I appreciate your insight. This is a frightening case because it shakes our perceptions of who may perpetrate this kind of crime. Most everyone will die effectively anonymous to the world. The infamy this kind of person seeks is a peculiarly toxic form of narcissism that views others only as tools to be used and discarded. What scares me is that this has become common in our day and age.

OH really? Why didn't he just torch the house? I would think that if the mob would torch a house that contained murdered bodies, a criminology major would know to do the same thing. So he didn't use his knowledge of criminology to plan the murders. He acted impulsively. He continued to act impulsively and didn't use his knowledge of criminology to get away with committing the murders. Apparently, he didn't even use his knowledge criminology to clean his car of the evidence,aybe he did. We have known it for weeks that they saw his car. Let's see how this all plays out.

Happy New Year Doc to you and your Family. I am a retired Deputy sheriff. Years ago I investigated a child molestations and sex crime cases. One of my cases, the suspect was a reputed psychologist, who proved to be a fraud. Long story short, he thought he was the smartest person in the room. Biggest mistakes most offenders make is they don’t know when to stop talking. With the exception of only one occasion in my ten years, everyone wanted to give their side of the story which always led to their downfall and conviction. The only one who ever refused to talk to me was a four time loser in the prison system. Sometimes I got to the point that I thought they wouldn’t stop talking.

I have been stalked a few times by men. Each person mistook my kindness for something else and were angry with me when I did not have feelings for them or when they found out I had a boyfriend. And when I say kindness, it is just as simple as smiling and saying hello each time I saw them. These situations can be very scary. People's brains work differently and sometimes bad experiences can be taken out on innocent victims simply bc the person they hurt reminds them of someone in their past. Most people just want to be liked or acknowledged. If this man ends up being the murderer, I am very curious to see what he was thinking about and why he did it.

[@tessiepinkman]

I agree. I have Aspergers and Borderline personality disorder, I am prone to psychosis and have crippling anxiety, so bad that without Xanax I can't get out of bed, and the other medications I take makes me feel so tired, and that doesn't exactly help to get out there and meet people. Most people would certainly describe me as socially awkward, and I really really hate when that is one of the things they *always* mention when they find "their" killer. And it *really* fucking sucks. There are other traits they can push in front of the cameras, socially awkward people would rather stay inside and not meet people at all than go out and kill somebody and risking being pushed in front of the spotlight, or not succeed and be terrified of people laughing at them. If a killer is socially awkward, it's most likely because of a lack of empathy - not something like Aspergers or social anxiety.

[@jackiegrice714]

Happy New Year everyone. I hope your year’s already started to sparkle. I was thrilled to see this upload Dr. Grande! This case was heart wrenching. I wonder if people had been kinder to Brian, would he have ever done something like this? But at the same time, the fact that he was mistreated in life doesn’t excuse his actions. A lot of people are bullied. Few of them commit any crime, let alone a quadruple murder. Thank you for expounding on this subject Dr. Grande.

[@realAnnB]

It's the bullying and it starts in the schoolyard. It warps and twists the minds of small children and/or teenagers and a few turn out like this. Schools need to have zero tolerance for bullying. These poor 4 college students and their families paid the price of our inaction. People threw things at him? Why didn't someone stop this? I would have. Where were the teachers or bystanders? There's no excuse for what he did and he has to pay. But we have the power to stop some of this in the future.

[@nvbluesky]

I appreciate you bringing the subject of kindness to bear on this. All people deserve to be treated with kindness and decency. Of course that isn’t the world we live in so bullying does go on especially among the young who in their youth don’t realize the gravity bullying can have on their peers. They don’t have the life experience. I just wish more attention would be directed to this awful behavior and its impact on lives. I don’t feel sorry for the suspected perpetrator, Bryan, but it does factor into his possible motive for committing such a horrible crime. The whole situation is awful. Maybe he had undiagnosed Aspergers syndrome which would explain his social awkwardness.

[@echuparosa]

Life is difficult and cruel in many different ways. While I agree that bullying is terrible for the psyche and people should be kinder, I doubt it makes a difference with some people. People with certain mental pathologies will find a reason to harm no matter what. Their boss made them mad, their spouse made them mad, etc cetera. Don't blame the world. Blame the person who unalived ppl. The difference is a person without certain pathologies will be bullied but never kill someone. A person with certain pathologies will always find a reason why the world owes them more. It's part of the mental pathology. It's part of the delusion of grandeur.

[@higgaroc]

Yes, I think the same here. Bullying is absolutely terrible and damaging. I was bullied a lot as a kid for the way I looked and dressed. It damaged my personality no doubt about it, but I do not want to hurt people, and I am one of probably millions who fit into this category. It seems like there’s another element at work here, possibly in combination with the bullying, that caused him and others like him to become so incredibly violent. Anyways, it’s a relief to see that someone was arrested. Happy new year Dr. G and all!

[@whereRbearsTeeth]

@@realAnnB Absolute BS. Bullying has existed since the beginning of time. This person has a mental deficiency that likely existed at birth, as opposed to becoming a killer as the result of process of socialization (or what you call bullying)

[@darrellmay4502]

The one major thing that Bryan didn't take into account was how easy it was to overlook critical evidence that could be used against him!

[@nomadscavenger]

What is the reason for not burning the vehicle once he heard they caught it on camera the evening of/early morning after the murders? (LE didn't have to farther than the campus next door, after checking their own.) Did he own it? Was he afraid of his parents wondering what happened to it if he torched it? He must have hated them, as well as one more than the others in that "party house". It could be at the bottom of a lake, river, quarry in just about half of PA, or any state in between there and Idaho. After yrs of studying dangerous criminals, one would think he'd kill the car/ditch the weapon and wear gloves, like OJ, no?

[@johnpepple3456]

Yes, I'm reminded of that line from the movie Body Heat (back in the 1980s): "In an operation like this, 50 things can go wrong. If you can think of 25 of them, you're a genius. And you're no genius." Also, once he heard they had pretty much figured out what his car was, he should have been on the next plane out of the country to Libya (or wherever they don't have extradition to the U.S.). Ditto for SBF. He should have left the Bahamas and headed for parts unknown after he resigned from FTX.

[@someoneout-there2165]

He wanted to test it for his PhD.... dear Lord.. if that's true this is one of the craziest stories I've ever heard. Just wow. If he would have got away with this he would have probably tried to make a "hypothetical" book on how he "thought" the killer would have done it to get himself rich. 😳

[@donnacaesar-roberts9472]

@@someoneout-there2165 So how he got into the house? Something don’t add up.

[@rickbrenner6079]

I agree. I also think he wanted to commit the perfect murder, and that his selection of a house of girls was chosen not due to “rage at being rejected by women in his past”, but because women, especially petite women (if he first scoped out the house ahead of time to see who occupied the residence) are easier to stab to death than men. I believe he is a sadistic psychopath who kills for the thrill of killing. He didn’t need (or want) to sexually assault any of the young ladies because the act of killing them in the manner he killed them satisfied his sexual urges, as he equates violence with sex. Plus, sexually assaulting them and leaving his ejaculate at the crime scene would make it that much easier for LE to identify and catch him.

[@carriesmith9943]

Oh, I am sure they are looking into this! He surely wasn't too smart, considering his studying criminology! That's why I think he might not have minded being caught! No one paid attention to him as a strange and odd human that had a hard time fitting in, but Now...everyone knows his name and face!

I’m sure he doesn’t even care he got caught. He ruined four extended families and went on to celebrate his birthday, Thanksgiving and Christmas with no remorse. Not to mention he finished his school semester. If he is guilty, he definitely did it for the recognition and social media will solidify that. Don’t attack the messenger.

You have very thoughtful and cogent analyses of these cases, and this is one reason I enjoy your channel (besides your sense of humor). I agree that Kohberger appears to have strong narcissistic traits (a sense of superiority, self-centeredness, and entitlement) coupled with a lack of empathy, which I believe are almost universal traits of serial killers. He's innocent until proven guilty, but the investigators probably have significant evidence against him. If Kohberger is the killer, then I applaud them for finding him so quickly, because he would have done this again.

[@MacBigUSA]

I always wondered why no one in authority stopped the bullying. They even acted like it was good for us; it would make us stronger. BS! My education wasn't as good because of it. It's very possible for people in authority in and outside of schools to stop the bullying. I think it's highly egregious for them not to.🌹

Grande is just pompously generating content for his channel without asking the most critical questions that concern us all: Why are the detectives and prosecutors releasing details about their investigation before acquiring an indictment by a grand jury (which is not the same as merely being charged by the prosecutor)? Can a suspect get a fair trial after being put on public display in a high-profile case before jury selection is complete?

I'm very concerned at the media coverage, even in the UK: so many seem to assume 'this is the guy' when he's only been arrested on suspicion & IS innocent until proven guilty, beyond a reasonable doubt. I can't imagine how it must feel to be in this situation, if you're innocent. We may still have the killer on the loose - something that's happened plenty of times in the past. A suspect may be all-sorts of things, their behaviour may be odd, they may have had bad interactions with others - but that doesn't mean they're guilty of anything. Let the course of justice run.

[@chrismillerfitness]

It’s guilty until proven innocent in America. That’s why you have to pay a bondsman to get out on bail before your even convicted. Then you have to pay a lawyer, take time off work, gas money,all of which you never get back when acquitted. Not even the bail money. It’s a business in America.
