About this episode
Big Breakdown: Inside Bryan Kohberger's Phone & Tinder Account!

Newly unsealed records shed light on Bryan Kohberger’s disturbing path leading up to the murders of four University of Idaho students. This breakdown explores the build-up — the behaviors, red flags, and chilling choices that paint the portrait of a man rehearsing control long before November 2022.

Investigators revisited a Pullman break-in from 2021, eerily similar to the later Idaho killings — a masked intruder with a knife entering a sorority house late at night. While Kohberger was ultimately ruled out for that crime, the parallels highlight just how common these predatory behaviors are in college towns, and how speculation can sometimes overshadow the harder truth: sometimes there’s more than one danger out there.

Kohberger’s own history is full of troubling markers. From stealing his sister’s phone for drug money as a teenager, to disturbing Tinder chats where he asked women about the “worst way to die,” to the ID cards found in his glove box that belonged to women outside of the Idaho case — the pattern is clear. These weren’t random moments; they were part of a progression, a fantasy-driven rehearsal that finally erupted in lethal violence.

Psychological experts describe this trajectory as common among sexual domination killers — the stalking, the obsession with control, the rehearsal of crime, the trophies like stolen IDs that give the illusion of possession. Even in jail, Kohberger’s obsessive habits have continued: compulsive cleaning, rigid dietary demands, and a chilling lack of emotional response to victim impact statements.

This episode digs into the uncomfortable truth: Kohberger didn’t come out of nowhere. There were warning signs — behaviors that, in hindsight, should have raised alarms. The bigger question is whether we as a society have the tools, systems, and courage to intervene before the fantasies of men like Kohberger become reality.
