BREAKING: Bryan Kohberger’s Secret Medic...

True Crime Today
About this episode
🚨 Breaking Reveal 🚨 — Newly analyzed evidence photos from Bryan Kohberger’s apartment show something almost everyone overlooked: a prescription slip. The National Drug Code on that slip confirms the medication he was taking at the time of the Idaho murders investigation.

That drug? Levothyroxine.

It’s one of the most common medications in the world, prescribed to millions to treat hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid doesn’t produce enough hormone to regulate energy, mood, and metabolism. For most people, Levothyroxine is a safe, life-changing medication. It balances out fatigue, depression, and brain fog caused by low thyroid. But in Kohberger’s case, the fact that he was prescribed it is a major revelation — because it shows us his body chemistry was unstable, and that instability could have collided with his obsessive, compulsive, and rigid tendencies.

When thyroid levels swing out of range, even briefly, the results can be dramatic: sleeplessness, agitation, racing thoughts, irritability, or on the other end, mental fog and depression. Doctors usually adjust the dose until balance is found, but it can take months or years. And in Kohberger, who was already described by professors as argumentative and obsessive, by classmates as cold and unsettling, and by neighbors as restless at odd hours, this layer of instability takes on a new weight.

This is not about blaming the drug. Levothyroxine is safe. Millions take it without issue. But it tells us something crucial about Kohberger himself: that beneath the compulsions, the diagnoses, and the obsessive control, he was also living in a body that wasn’t steady. A body that may have sharpened the very edges of his behavior.

This is the kind of hidden detail that reshapes how we understand the man behind the crimes. Levothyroxine didn’t cause murder. But it exposes another clue to the chaos inside him.
