Bryan Kohberger's Ex-Friend Reveals His Frustration Toward Women

In a new special, his former friend shares insight into who he really is. 

Ever since Bryan Kohberger was arrested in Pennsylvania in December 2022 in the stabbing deaths of four University of Idaho students, Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Madison Mogen, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20; and Ethan Chapin, 20, investigators have been attempting to come up with a viable motive for the suspected killer. Early on, it was hypothesized that the 28-year-old had anger and frustration surrounding women and that the female victims were his prime targets. Now, in a new interview, a former friend of the PhD criminology student confirms some of the suspicions.
