“Murder for Mentorship: FBI Profiler Explores Kohberger’s Alleged Obsession with Ramsland”-WEEK IN REVIEW

Why did Bryan Kohberger suddenly plead guilty after nearly two years of pretrial warfare? The answer might be more personal—and more psychological—than legal. In this breakdown, we explore how the revelation that Kohberger’s sister, Amanda, was on the prosecution’s witness list may have triggered a collapse in his carefully controlled defense. For a man driven by dominance, image, and manipulation, the prospect of family testifying against him may have cut deeper than any courtroom battle. We unpack:  • The timeline between Amanda being listed and Kohberger's plea  • What his control-obsessed behavior says about the psychology of his decision  • How avoiding a trial may have spared his family—and preserved his own narcissistic narrative  • The legal pressures: failed suppression motions, damning DNA rulings, and an inevitable death penalty trial  • The psychology of narcissistic collapse and what it looks like when the mask slips Was it guilt, fear, or one last act of ego-driven control disguised as mercy? This is the deeper story behind Kohberger’s plea—and what it says about him.  #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerGuilty #CriminalPsychology #TrueCrimeBreakdown #KohbergerFamily #ControlAndCollapse #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalProfile #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

They kill. Then they smile for cameras, clock in for work, or go grocery shopping. In this chilling Hidden Killers investigation, we explore “The Performance of Normal” — the haunting calm that follows murder. Starting with Bryan Kohberger, who prosecutors say was seen casually shopping hours after the brutal Idaho student murders, we dive deep into the psychology behind that eerie stillness. Why do some killers seem completely composed after committing horrific crimes? From John List, who ate lunch next to his wife’s body before vanishing for 18 years… To Dennis Rader (BTK), who left a Boy Scout camp to murder and came back by morning to flip pancakes for the troop. To Chris Watts, who went to work just hours after killing his pregnant wife and daughters. To Stephen McDaniel, who gave a TV interview about his “missing” neighbor — the same woman he had just murdered. To Colonel Russell Williams, a respected Canadian military commander smiling for charity photos days after taking a life. To Tyler Hadley, the Florida teen who killed his parents, then threw a party with their bodies hidden in the next room. To Susan Smith, the mother who tearfully begged for her children’s return after drowning them herself. And Ian Huntley, the school caretaker who joined the search for two girls he had already murdered. This episode examines the psychology of composure — how killers weaponize calmness, and why society so often mistakes it for innocence. It’s not just what they do. It’s what they don’t. Because sometimes, evil doesn’t look like rage. It looks like control. It looks like “normal.” 🔔 Subscribe for more true crime breakdowns with Tony Brueski — the cases that stay with you long after the headlines fade. #HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #TrueCrime #ChrisWatts #BTK #JohnList #StephenMcDaniel #RussellWilliams #SusanSmith #TylerHadley #IanHuntley #PsychologyOfMurder #TrueCrimePodcast #MurderCases #BryanKohbergerCostco #Evil #CalmAfterMurder #DatelineStyle #HiddenKillersPodcast #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this gripping psychological breakdown, we go beyond the headlines and into the behavioral blueprint of Bryan Kohberger—the man convicted of murdering four University of Idaho students. Was he a psychopath? A narcissist? Or something more complicated? Join Tony Brueski on Hidden Killers as we pull apart the clinical language behind the internet’s most overused labels. “Psychopath” and “narcissist” aren’t just insults—they’re technical profiles, rooted in years of forensic and psychological study. And in Kohberger’s case, the question isn’t just what he did… but why. What does his academic obsession with criminology reveal? What do prosecutors say about his movements before and after the crime? And what does his eerie silence in court actually mean—remorselessness or just legal strategy? We examine documented facts from court filings, affidavits, and verified reporting: • The infamous knife sheath with DNA • Cell phone records showing surveillance and signal gaps • Prosecutors’ theory of forensic planning • Kohberger’s alleged superiority complex and behavioral coldness Through the lens of expert frameworks—including the Hare Psychopathy Checklist and diagnostic criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder—we’ll explore the traits the public finds chilling, and what they really mean. This isn’t a character assassination. It’s a forensic dissection of behavior, motive, and risk—delivered in Tony’s signature style: fact-driven, emotionally grounded, and built for audiences who want more than just true crime drama. No speculation. No sensationalism. Just what the public record shows—and what psychology helps us understand. 🔔 Subscribe for more deep dives into the darkest minds and most disturbing cases on Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski. #BryanKohberger #PsychopathOrNarcissist #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePsychology #KohbergerProfile #IdahoMurders #ForensicPsychology #CriminologyBreakdown #TrueCrimePodcast #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In the face of unthinkable tragedy, Stacy Chapin, the mother of slain University of Idaho student Ethan Chapin, chose a path of grace over vengeance. This deeply moving commentary from Hidden Killers explores her powerful decision to not let Bryan Kohberger—the accused killer—define her or her family's story. Instead of focusing on the crime, Stacy and her family have channeled their grief into a powerful legacy, establishing scholarships and writing a book to honor Ethan's life. This episode is a tribute to the strength of the human spirit. It's about what happens after the crime—the difficult journey of healing, the importance of reclaiming a victim’s memory, and the radical act of choosing peace in a world that demands outrage. We'll examine this unique approach to grieving and the profound impact it can have on survivors. This is a story of resilience, love, and the enduring power of a family's legacy.

What does life look like for Bryan Kohberger now that he’s off the front page and locked inside one of Idaho’s most restrictive prisons? In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we go inside the Idaho Maximum Security Institution—home to death row, long-term restrictive housing, and now, Bryan Kohberger. This is not general population. This is J Block. And the reality of Kohberger’s existence there is bleak. We break down every confirmed detail of his day-to-day life: • 23 hours a day in a single cell • One hour of solo outdoor rec • Showers every other day • Movement only in full restraints • Commissary as his only “task” of the week • Surveillance on all calls, messages, and mail • Visitation through glass, if allowed at all Using official records from the Idaho Department of Correction and verified reporting, this is a deeply researched, fact-driven look at the institutional monotony, isolation, and psychological erosion that defines Kohberger’s life today. This isn’t a story of redemption, revenge, or rehabilitation. It’s the slow, bureaucratic erasure of a man from public view—no longer a suspect, no longer a student, no longer in control. Tony Brueski guides you through this haunting portrait with the signature Hidden Killers voice: sharp, emotionally grounded, and relentlessly focused on truth over spectacle.

In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down the latest twist in the Bryan Kohberger saga — one that has nothing to do with guilt, innocence, or trial evidence, but everything to do with the system that’s supposed to hold everyone accountable. The Idaho Department of Correction has confirmed that the leaked prison video showing Kohberger inside his cell was authentic. The person responsible has been identified and is no longer employed. But the headline that’s sparking national debate: Idaho State Police say no criminal charges will be filed. “Insufficient evidence,” they called it. But what does that really mean? In this deep-dive editorial, Tony exposes how this decision isn’t just about one rogue employee — it’s about the cracks forming in the walls of justice itself. Because when people inside the system start deciding which rules apply and which don’t, the system stops being about law and order. It becomes about personal judgment. About vengeance dressed as justice. We’ll unpack: Why the act technically didn’t qualify as a criminal offense under Idaho law How this legal “gray zone” turns into a dangerous precedent for every inmate — and every citizen Why integrity behind prison walls matters just as much as the integrity of the courtroom The real meaning of “If they can do it to him, they can do it to anyone.” This isn’t a defense of Bryan Kohberger. It’s a defense of the rule of law. Because when power stops being restrained by principle, it stops being justice. Watch the full breakdown now, and decide for yourself — is this just a technicality, or a warning sign that the system is slipping? #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrimePodcast #KohbergerVideo #JusticeSystem #PrisonLeak #IdahoDOC #RuleOfLaw Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we pull back the curtain on the most misleading—and most dangerous—phase of any major crime story: the first 72 hours. Using the Bryan Kohberger case as a case study, Tony dissects how the earliest reporting on the University of Idaho murders quickly spiraled into misinformation, emotional panic, and public certainty based on little more than vague police statements and internet rumor. From “no threat to the community” to “unconscious person” to the infamous white Hyundai ask—almost everything the public believed in the first three days either changed or was clarified later. But by then, the narrative had hardened. In this longform breakdown, we expose how the fog of breaking news forms, why the media often isn’t lying (even when the facts change), and how psychologically we cling to early stories even in the face of hard evidence. We explore the myths that formed—victims tied and gagged, the skinned dog rumor, the DoorDash driver, stalker theories—and show exactly what was reported when and why the facts didn’t stick. This is not a hit piece on the press. It’s a sharp, fact-driven guide to how public perception gets hijacked during active investigations, and why it matters—especially in a case as emotionally loaded and legally complex as the Kohberger trial. If you followed this case from the beginning, you need to hear this. Because chances are, some of what you still believe was never true to begin with. 🎧 Listen now for a reality check that’s long overdue—and a reminder that sometimes, certainty is the most dangerous lie of all. #Kohberger #IdahoMurders #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #MediaMisinformation #BryanKohberger #BreakingNews #PsychologyOfCrime #CriminalJustice #TrueCrimePodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
