Summary
Bryan Kohberger’s trial prep just took a sharp turn—and FBI profiler Robin Dreeke is here to decode the strategy. With the defense filing under seal to name an “alternate perpetrator,” the stakes couldn’t be higher. But what does this tell us about Kohberger’s mindset?
Robin walks us through the psychology of denial, blame-shifting, and narrative control—especially when a defendant has been silent for nearly two years. From behavioral inconsistencies to courtroom micro-expressions, we explore how guilt and fear reveal themselves, even when words are scarce.
We also dive into Kohberger’s prior writings on criminal behavior, his alleged stalking patterns, and what his actions before and after the murders say about personality type. Is this the work of a detached intellectual fantasist—or something darker?
This episode breaks it all down through the lens of one of the FBI’s most experienced behavioral analysts.

| 0:28.5 | the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. We've been talking about this case now for |
| 0:33.2 | almost three years, which is kind of hard to... |
| 0:37.5 | How we met. |
| 0:38.8 | I know. |
| 0:39.6 | I know. |
| 0:40.4 | It's crazy, but we're coming up on the three-year mark of this in November. |

| 0:51.0 | One thing that has been very difficult for the defense of Brian Koberger to get out there is any |

| 1:03.1 | They said they were going to have one. And then poof, here's the alibi. He likes to look at the stars. |
| 1:09.3 | No. On a night that had no stars |
| 1:11.1 | because it was... |
| 1:12.3 | And I've never done it before either. |
