If they knew who it was and didn’t put out a BOLO for him people across the whole country were in danger IMO.
I suspect they’ve had eyes on him and were waiting to tie up loose ends (dna etc.)
He has family in PA so they may have known his location and were tracking his movements, etc.

Exceptionally common on reddit.
It's almost like psychological interviews/tests might be needed as qualifications.

I told you guys, I had a very good feeling just from the way the police chief acted yesterday in this video
Yes, you were spot-on, and I had a feeling you were right!

As a psychology and criminology graduate myself I’m curious to know if his research played a big part in this crime. As in his research was based around fantasies/thoughts he had and he worked his research into those or his research made him want to experience all that first hand for himself.

Of course, he may have a connection to the victims that we don’t know about yet but just something I am wondering.
I'm curious about this as well. What drew him to study of psychology and then criminology and criminal justice? Was it his own feelings and fantasies?

Frightening to think that innocent others might have participated in his research studies, unaware their answers to his research questions were feeding the graduate student/study director's own fantasies (edit: and possibly training him to be a more effective criminal).

''Who is Bryan Christopher Kohberger?​

The suspect is a graduate student at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, according to FOX News digital, citing the college's website.

Pullman is about a 15-minute drive from the rental home where the four students were stabbed to death.

A press conference is scheduled by police in Moscow, Idaho, at 4 p.m. ET to discuss developments in the case. ''

Catching up, probably already posted but looks like BK followed Kaylee on IG if it's his legit account which I think might be.
That is gutsy. What's BKs insta?

What's weird about his "study" is the people with meaningful information to share, like the sort that is collected by the FBI behavioral folks, are not on Reddit able to answer casual questions. They're in prison. So it's like he read Mindhunter and decided, yes, I will do this on reddit to LARP as a Real Researcher.
He posted the survey on subreddits such as Prison, Ex-Cons, Felons, PrisonTalk.

That’s quite an assumption and doesn’t really align with their statements over the last few days/weeks.

It appears to me that BK was trying to emulate Dexter. Eventually work as a criminologist and twighlight as a murderer. Now i think he was potentially hiding in the house prior to the victims arrival or observing them thru the windows. Perhaps random in regards to picking out his victims, but I believe he was probably stalking them for sometime. Likely knew their general movements and patterns and had this crime well planned in advance.

Still catching up with this thread but I'm very happy to hear there has been an arrest! Thank goodness.

I doubt this guy was in any DNA database, so it seems the late development with the car is what turned it around. If this guy had been a suspect early on, the police would not have gone public about the car?
Think he left a fingerprint? He worked in a school. I know I was fingerprinted in order to just volunteer.

Yes - I use reddit for certain research purposes for my beginner lab in forensics (mostly just collecting simple data already provided by redditors).

But it's so creepy that this man was researching crime and emotion via survey results.

He looks like most average white guys to me tbh
Looks like a friend of mine thirty years ago (much older now, but doesn't look like he's aged a day). Strong, angular, with rugged good looks. Like Ted Bundy, the sort who could disarm you with his appearance.

Hmm I thought almost the same thing…. trying really hard to look unfazed, but if the cameras all turned away he’d be in tears! JMO
He’s probably telling himself that he will somehow beat it due to his research in criminology. I hope he doesn’t have anything up his sleeve…

For those wondering about the PA connection - apparently he studied at Desales University, which is in Lehigh County (so like halfway between the Philly area and Scranton).

Yes. Albrightsville, PA. Graduated from community college nearby. This is west of East Stroudsburg — totally rural.
Hunting country.
Northhampton Community College... he has a merrit page- Dean's list.. did counseling :(

Thank you!

With WSU just ten minutes away, I’d assume that there’s lots of bouncing back and forth for socializing.

Oh boy, this next 4.5 hours is going to be long!

WSU would be close enough to e local and hang out in similar bars, coffeeshops, etc...

I'll now bet the farm that he's also responsible for the stabbings of two 20-something women (didn't die) in Pullman. 2:30 am attack on sleeping women.
Source on Pullman stabbings?
