There’s evidence… and then there’s behavior. In this episode, we go beyond the basics of the Bryan Kohberger case and explore what Dateline NBC has just revealed about the man prosecutors say meticulously stalked his victims — and left behind a trail of digital and psychological clues.
Joining us is former FBI Behavioral Analyst Robin Dreeke, who gives expert commentary on the disturbing details presented in Dateline’s two-hour special: the 2:52 a.m. text from Kaylee, the clear surveillance video of Kohberger’s car, and the 23 late-night phone pings near King Road that prosecutors say signal long-term planning.
But what really stands out are Kohberger’s Google searches — references to Ted Bundy, as well as explicit porn involving unconscious women. These aren’t random clicks. They suggest a level of psychological priming that, in Dreeke’s analysis, mirrors behavior seen in past sexual predators and killers.
We also analyze how Kohberger allegedly tried to interact with women in socially awkward, overly formal ways — texting a partygoer after a brief chat to say, “I really enjoy that activity.” When put in the context of this case, these moments feel less like quirks and more like signs of deep pathology.
We cover the knife sheath DNA, the Amazon Ka-Bar order, and the Indiana traffic stop with his father — but through the lens of behavioral escalation. How do fantasy and fixation become murder? And did Kohberger cross that line long before Nov. 13?
This is the psychological autopsy of a suspect — with an FBI expert walking us through every disturbing clue.
