In the consult, we discuss cases involving violence, sexual violence, abduction, and and I'm joined by my colleagues.

Angela Serser, Susan Costler, Drew, and Bob Drew.

Angela, Susan, and Bob are also retired FBI profilers, and we work together in the FBI's

behavioral analysis unit. Today is part two of our analysis of what has become known as the

Idaho student murders. The quadruple homicide of Madison Mogan, Kaylee Gonzalez, Zana Kurnodal,

and Ethan Chapin killed in the early morning hours of November 13, 2022 in Moscow, Idaho. On July 2nd, 2025, Brian Coburger, a 28-year-old

PhD student in his first year of the Criminal Justice and Criminology Program at

Washington State University in nearby Pullman, Washington, pleaded guilty to their murders.

In part one, we reviewed the facts presented by the prosecution at Koberger's change of plea

hearing and discussed what they revealed about his behavior and possible motive.

We collectively concluded this was most likely a sexually motivated homicide.

In this episode, we'll continue exploring the many unanswered questions.

While Koeberger's plea deal waived his right to appeal or seek leniency,

it did not require him to explain what he did or why.

Today, among other things, we'll discuss his

potential motive further, how we would classify him behaviorally and whether we believe he

would have killed again if he had not been caught. Before we begin, a quick reminder, if you'd

Okay, so we previously discussed that we don't believe Koeberger intended to commit a sexual assault when he entered 1122 King Road.
