Summary
The Idaho murders case has a digital ghost haunting it — an online persona known as Pappa Rodger. From the moment the crime shocked the nation, this mysterious account was posting eerily accurate predictions. The sheath, the weapon, even the patterns of behavior — it was all there before the public knew. And the question has never gone away: was Pappa Rodger really Bryan Kohberger?
Law enforcement has insisted the answer is no. They claim after a “deep dive,” the account was ruled out. But retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer isn’t quick to close that book. In this conversation with Tony Brueski, she digs into the contradictions: the combative tone, the obsessive need to prove superiority, the survey-like questions that echoed Kohberger’s criminology work. VPNs and masked IPs make it nearly impossible to prove definitively. So should we really take “not him” at face value?
The overlap is unnerving. Too precise to be coincidence, too familiar to ignore. If Pappa Rodger wasn’t Kohberger, then who was it? Someone with an uncanny insight into the murders? A lucky guesser? Or another figure entirely with access to information they shouldn’t have had?
This isn’t just about one case. It’s about the way anonymity online can blur into real-world horror. Pappa Rodger may be gone, but the mystery lingers. And until the evidence is made public, we’re left asking: how do you ever really prove a digital ghost isn’t who you think it is?

| 0:06.4 | When you start digging into the darkest corners of the Coburger case, one name keeps |
| 0:11.6 | floating back up like a bad penny. Papa Roger. For nearly three years, that handle haunted |
| 0:19.5 | online forums with eerie accuracy, chilling predictions and a tone that made you wonder if the killer himself was hiding in plain sight. |
| 0:28.0 | Was it Brian Coburger? |
| 0:30.4 | Law enforcement now swears no. |
| 0:33.5 | They've said flat out after what they call a deep dive that the IP addresses didn't match. |
| 0:40.5 | Case closed, right? |
| 0:42.8 | No. |
| 0:43.6 | Here's the problem. |
| 0:45.5 | If you've been following this case closely, you know nothing about it has ever felt simple or tidy. |
| 0:50.8 | And when you slap a phrase like deep dive onto an official denial without showing receipts, |
| 0:56.0 | without letting the public see the warrants, the metadata, the IPs you're even talking about. |
| 1:03.0 | And with no mention of VPNs, it leaves the rest of us standing here asking, |
| 1:10.0 | okay, but what exactly did you look at? |
| 1:13.1 | Because let's be honest, VPNs exist. IP addresses can be masked, blocked. |
| 1:17.4 | And if we're learning anything about Koberger, it's that he was meticulous about scrubbing his tracks. |
| 1:24.4 | There's plenty of other data they didn't have either. |
| 1:30.0 | So it doesn't really surprise me to go and assume that, well, he scrubbed his tracks clean enough that you can't say definitively |
| 1:38.1 | that it was Koberger, but I believe you sure as hell can't say it wasn't either. I'm willing to |
| 1:44.1 | be proved wrong on that. |
| 1:45.4 | If you can show me who it was then, other than we don't know. Because if you don't know, |
