Summary
What’s going on inside the mind of Bryan Kohberger—and what should we really be looking at beyond the headlines?
In this exclusive premiere episode, Robin Dreeke—former head of the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Program—returns to Hidden Killers to unpack the internal workings of Kohberger’s alleged psychological profile. With a capital trial looming and a Motion to Continue filed, Kohberger’s defense is arguing they need more time to investigate his life history and mental state. But what would a profiler look for in that timeline?
We dive deep into possible red flags, behavioral escalation, post-crime behavior, and how Kohberger’s public persona could differ wildly from his internal drives. Dreeke helps separate pop culture profiling from the real science used in criminal justice and explains why understanding a suspect’s behavioral footprint is critical—not just to guilt or innocence, but to understanding risk, future behavior, and sentencing.
This is the interview that goes beyond the headlines and into the evidence-based behavioral framework that law enforcement uses every day.

| 1:54.6 | not so much on his innocence, but explaining him so a bullet doesn't go towards his chest. I think I've been trying to |
| 2:04.9 | do that for a year now. Yeah. It's all they have. It's at a certain point, you know, you give defense |
