Summary
In this chilling dive into the mind of alleged Idaho killer Bryan Kohberger, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to peel back the layers of psychology, behavior, and eyebrow-raising decisions. A criminology student who allegedly bought a tactical mask and knife long before the crime. A guy who may or may not have ghosted digitally at just the right time. Someone whose online posts eerily aligned with confidential case details—before the arrest. Sound like a coincidence, or just someone who watched American Psycho one too many times?
As Dreeke points out, there’s a big difference between fantasizing about crime and acting on it—but when that fantasy escalates into alleged planning and execution, the line gets dangerously blurry. We’re talking behavioral patterns, emotional voids, creepy social media parallels, and a fascination with crime that might’ve gone way too far. Also: who poses in a shower, buttoned to the top, with "Psycho" energy radiating from every pixel?
Did Bryan Kohberger allegedly leave a breadcrumb trail of his own making—or was he hiding in plain sight, daring the world to figure him out?
What was the real switch that flipped—fantasy, feeling, or full-blown psychopathy?

| 1:24.7 | Yeah, I definitely didn't see any panic in anything because, again, he doesn't seem to have a |
