My TA Looks Like a Murderer" Kohberger Student NAILED IT, BEFORE Crimes!
Before his arrest, before the trial, before the name Bryan Kohberger became infamous, there were warning signs. His time as a teaching assistant at Washington State was riddled with complaints — thirteen formal grievances in just three months. Students said he belittled them, intimidated them, harassed them. One wrote flat out: “my TA looks like a murderer.” Professors saw it too, warning colleagues that if he graduated, he’d end up committing serious crimes.
In this segment, Tony Brueski and Jennifer Coffindaffer break down the chilling preview of who Kohberger really was. Professor Snyder described the “terrier routine,” where Kohberger would follow him endlessly, desperate to dominate even mundane interactions. Students and faculty alike called out the danger — but the machine of academia kept moving until it was too late.
Then there are the loose ends in the evidence: presumptive blood found on a blanket and coat months after the fact, documentation gaps that raise eyebrows. These don’t undo the mountain of evidence, but they raise questions about thoroughness. Were investigators so focused on the big picture that they missed small but critical details?
This conversation forces us to confront an uncomfortable truth: institutions often fail to act on red flags until tragedy makes them undeniable. Academia wrote him off as “odd.” Law enforcement may have left threads dangling. The result? Four innocent lives cut short.
