Five months before four Idaho students were found brutally murdered in their shared home, suspect Bryan Kohberger appealed on Reddit to criminals to complete his survey about how they selected their targets and carried out offenses.
Kohberger, 28, is in custody awaiting extradition from Pennsylvania to Idaho.
He was arrested in the Poconos in the early hours of Friday morning in connection with the brutal murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, on November 13.

I'm curious to find out if this guy had a fascination with Ted Bundy. This crime was similar to Ted's murders at the college in Florida.

If he's the guy he probably fancies himself a criminal genius. He would pulled off the "perfect murder." It will be interesting if he had no connection to any of the kids, simply saw them, and targeted them. He may have felt that he had protected himself with head coverings, gloves, nondescript shoes and clothing he could dispose of quickly. Then he would leave immediately and be miles away before the bodies were discovered. Now, just sit back and watch the chaos while the local police haven't got a clue. What a genius.
Maybe for his next murder, he won't drive his own car and hang onto it even after making his perfect escape?
As #1 said Bundy came to mind immediately because of his similar crime in Florida. There was also Leopold and Lobe whose "perfect murder" plot was foiled by what they left behind. I only hope that this was his first time. I would hate to think that other families suffered at the hands of this guy.

Motive?
How did he get access into the house?
Why those four?

Before he knifed the four students to death in November, had Kohberger killed before? Are these his only victims, or were there others? Mass murderers are some of the most driven individuals imaginable. What demon drove this killer? Did he have any help? Law enforcement did their job well.
Criminology, a branch of sociology, is an fascinating course of study. I took it undergrad in 1976, and really upset some of my Vanderbilt classmates when I read aloud from my A+ paper on capital punishment, which I favored. Even the professor was smiling hearing the ululating and the wailing: young people, Karens forty years before Karen, managing to sound as upset as the late Rep. Claude "Red" Pepper (D-FL), hollering about Social Security. No! No! No!

If he's the one, I'll bet one reason he chose the group in Idaho is because he resides in Washington.
Murder is a state crime and all the law departments in all the states are geared to work within their states until they realize they must widen their field.

He is a psycopath whose interest in/obsession with crime was about his own desires. His “survey” was clearly focused on criminals who had “targeted” persons for harm or murder. He was studying up - to commit a perfect crime himself? To benefit from what those surveyed had done right or wrong?
As for how he accessed the house, I’d guess that big tree near the upper floor balcony. The murders were on that floor and the floor just below it. Anyone on the first floor might not have heard him at all or might have thought sound from those areas was the occupants’ movements. If he cut throats first, no screams. And then back out the same way and down that tree.
Just a thought...

More re access from the father of one of the victims on the top floor. (The house is oddly configured. The third floor seems to be offset with a balcony on the rear of the house)
MOSCOW, Idaho – The father of one of the four University of Idaho students who were killed in their off-campus home on Nov. 13 believes his daughter and her best friend may have been targeted based on the perpetrator's suspected entry and exit point.
Steven Goncalves, father of deceased 21-year-old Kaylee Goncalves, on Sunday morning told "Fox & Friends" that the suspect's alleged "entry and exit" point through a sliding glass door or window on the second floor of the home — which meets a hill on the ground level in the backyard — "are available without having to go upstairs or downstairs.”

Most photos of the house were taken from the other (front) side. First floor. Front door. The upper floor(s) and porch railing show on the back.

An odd thing is that there have been several unsolved murders in Washington and the surrounding area in the past few years. Seemingly random and may not be connected but.....anyway Idaho has the death penalty. Just sayin’.

Just an abstract thought, was this guy an Antifa
terrorist? That area is a hotbed for Antifa academia weirdo's.
My guess is yes. Could supply motive.

If convicted, put him in the same cell with "Nikki" Secondino. They should make a rather interesting pair.

Sounds like a lib. Aim for jobs that place him in the chain of command to oversee evidence found in crimes he's committed. He made several aggredious errors, though.: He surveying criminals to learn their methods, but he's only talking to the ones who got caught.
