1
00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:05.160
<v Speaker 1>What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the program. Now

2
00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>that the dust is starting to settle a little bit

3
00:00:07.639 --> 00:00:11.000
<v Speaker 1>in the wake of the arrest of Brian Koberger, we're

4
00:00:11.039 --> 00:00:13.679
<v Speaker 1>starting to learn a little bit more about the man

5
00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:17.800
<v Speaker 1>and how the arrest went down. And we're also hearing

6
00:00:17.879 --> 00:00:21.679
<v Speaker 1>that his offices in Pullman one that he shared with

7
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:25.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of other graduate students, and his apartment have

8
00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:29.440
<v Speaker 1>been rated as well, And obviously the police are looking

9
00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:32.200
<v Speaker 1>to put together their case right. They want to make

10
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:35.119
<v Speaker 1>sure that this is a slam dunk. One thing that

11
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:39.159
<v Speaker 1>I've heard also is that no murder weapon has been

12
00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:42.719
<v Speaker 1>found yet, So I was hoping that at the press

13
00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:45.759
<v Speaker 1>conference we'd get a lot more some more context and

14
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:48.960
<v Speaker 1>a little more flavor, if you will, But that didn't come,

15
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:51.960
<v Speaker 1>and they're still obviously playing it close to the vest.

16
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Now they have to worry about that conviction. The first

17
00:00:55.000 --> 00:01:00.240
<v Speaker 1>part's over, and everybody thinks that, you know, the first

18
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:04.000
<v Speaker 1>is the hard part, and most certainly is. But building

19
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>a case and getting a conviction is no walk in

20
00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:09.680
<v Speaker 1>the park either, and they're definitely gonna have their hands

21
00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:13.000
<v Speaker 1>full because anytime you have a case like this that's

22
00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:16.359
<v Speaker 1>as expansive as this, you know that it's going to

23
00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:20.200
<v Speaker 1>be an uphill battle. Now. The prosecutors certainly look like

24
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:23.519
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna have the ammunition that's needed to slam this

25
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:27.519
<v Speaker 1>bad boy home. Considering the DNA evidence, and if it

26
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:29.799
<v Speaker 1>ties him to this house and he had never been

27
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:33.159
<v Speaker 1>there before, had no reason to be there, well that

28
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:36.599
<v Speaker 1>would be pretty simple for the prosecutors to make that argument. No,

29
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:40.640
<v Speaker 1>so if he had no business ever being there and

30
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:44.640
<v Speaker 1>then his DNA is found there, obviously we know that

31
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.239
<v Speaker 1>the prosecutors are not going to have a hard time

32
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:51.640
<v Speaker 1>selling that. And I'm also seeing out there that he

33
00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:56.719
<v Speaker 1>was following them, Madison and Kaylee on Instagram at the

34
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>very least, so he was certainly following them on so

35
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.519
<v Speaker 1>social media and was at least admiring them from afar

36
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:09.039
<v Speaker 1>And as far as officially, that's all we really know

37
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:12.680
<v Speaker 1>right now. So with that said, let's jump into this

38
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:16.120
<v Speaker 1>article from the Daily Mail and let's hear about this raid,

39
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 1>and let's get caught up on various other points surrounding

40
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>the arrest. Headlined exclusive Suspected Idaho quadruple murderer Brian Coberger's

41
00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:31.479
<v Speaker 1>office in Washington State is searched by police while the

42
00:02:31.479 --> 00:02:36.800
<v Speaker 1>PhD student awaits extradition. So that's the whole process unto itself,

43
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:40.280
<v Speaker 1>right extradition, But I highly doubt it's going to be

44
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:46.560
<v Speaker 1>an issue here. This article was authored by Ruth Stiles.

45
00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:50.639
<v Speaker 1>Police have raided the office of suspected University of Idaho

46
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:56.120
<v Speaker 1>killer Briancoberger. Dailymail dot Com can reveal Coburger twenty eight

47
00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:59.039
<v Speaker 1>was arrested in the early hours of Friday morning by

48
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a swat team and is currently being held in Monroe County, Pennsylvania,

49
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:07.919
<v Speaker 1>while awaiting extradition to Idaho. And this dude couldn't be

50
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:10.879
<v Speaker 1>extradited fast enough as far as I'm concerned. Get him

51
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:14.199
<v Speaker 1>to Idaho, get them facing justice, a nice speedy trial

52
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:17.360
<v Speaker 1>end if there's a conviction, No need to mess around

53
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:20.439
<v Speaker 1>with long jail sentences or anything like that. Let's just

54
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:24.000
<v Speaker 1>find a live volcano and throw his ass directly in it.

55
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.879
<v Speaker 1>Authorities were seen at his office on the University of

56
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:32.599
<v Speaker 1>Washington Pullman campus, with exclusive dailymail dot Com photos showing

57
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:37.199
<v Speaker 1>cop cars from Washington State University Police parked outside Wilson

58
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:43.879
<v Speaker 1>Short Hall, which houses the criminology department. Photos show officers

59
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>inside the building at the entrance to Room twelve, where

60
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:51.719
<v Speaker 1>Coburger shared space with two other PhD students. Now I

61
00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>saw all of the information on the website about this

62
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>office and his PhD when this was all breaking and

63
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 1>a made being. The students that shared that office with

64
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:04.560
<v Speaker 1>them talk about the nightmare that they're going to have

65
00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:06.520
<v Speaker 1>to deal with in the wake of all of this

66
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>as well. Jalymail dot com photos show police also searching

67
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:17.040
<v Speaker 1>his home at the Steptoe Village apartment complex in Pullman, Washington.

68
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:20.560
<v Speaker 1>They arrived at seven thirty am, hours after he was

69
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:24.079
<v Speaker 1>arrested on the other side of the country. As soon

70
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:26.519
<v Speaker 1>as they had this dude hammed up, they were rating

71
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:31.160
<v Speaker 1>these other locations trying to get this evidence because it's

72
00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:33.519
<v Speaker 1>all going to prove crucial. Right when you have one

73
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:36.480
<v Speaker 1>of these trials, one of these murder trials, especially one

74
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:39.199
<v Speaker 1>that's going to be highlighted like this, Every bit of

75
00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 1>evidence is going to help the prosecution move the ball

76
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:45.600
<v Speaker 1>forward and get the conviction and get the justice that

77
00:04:45.639 --> 00:04:52.160
<v Speaker 1>everybody wants. Here. Pennsylvania native Coburger was studying criminology at

78
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:55.759
<v Speaker 1>the University of Washington's Pullman campus, which is a fifteen

79
00:04:55.800 --> 00:05:00.519
<v Speaker 1>minute drive from Moscow, Idaho, and It's pretty chilly when

80
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:02.759
<v Speaker 1>you look at that Reddit post we were talking about,

81
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:06.439
<v Speaker 1>and to think this guy is sitting here having this

82
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:12.120
<v Speaker 1>criminology background and he's capable of doing what he did.

83
00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:15.680
<v Speaker 1>You just can't tell with people, right, You never know

84
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:22.079
<v Speaker 1>what sort of psychopath is lurking around you. Along with

85
00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Kailee Gonsalves and Madison Mogan Coberger is also accused of

86
00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:30.439
<v Speaker 1>murdering young couple Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin both twenty

87
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:33.079
<v Speaker 1>All four died in their beds at their home in

88
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Moscow in the early hours of November thirteenth, in a

89
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>killing soul brutal. Police described the scene to Delhi mail

90
00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:43.120
<v Speaker 1>dot com as the worst we have ever seen. So

91
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:47.120
<v Speaker 1>with this guy being a criminology student of PhD, I

92
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:49.319
<v Speaker 1>wonder if he's going to take the Ted Bundy approach

93
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:53.079
<v Speaker 1>here and try and play games with the investigators. You

94
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>know how these guys are. They're completely narcissistic. We know

95
00:05:57.040 --> 00:05:59.360
<v Speaker 1>he was active on Reddit. My guess is he was

96
00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:04.800
<v Speaker 1>following along with the investigation as it happened. So is

97
00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:07.959
<v Speaker 1>he gonna play games with the investigators as they try

98
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:12.399
<v Speaker 1>and solve this murder? Now, obviously it certainly looks like

99
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:14.639
<v Speaker 1>he's the man who did it when you look at

100
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:16.759
<v Speaker 1>all of the evidence and you look at what we know.

101
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:20.959
<v Speaker 1>But of course there's always that caveat. That's the circumstantial

102
00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:23.920
<v Speaker 1>evidence that we know of. That's why there's a whole

103
00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:27.480
<v Speaker 1>trial process, right. But a dude like this strikes me

104
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:30.079
<v Speaker 1>as the kind of person that's gonna try and play games,

105
00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:33.199
<v Speaker 1>try and you know, throw the cops off his scent,

106
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:36.000
<v Speaker 1>maybe try and throw a little bit of chum in

107
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:39.000
<v Speaker 1>the water, talking about somebody else else might have been involved,

108
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:42.680
<v Speaker 1>whatever it might be. This is the type of person

109
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that definitely gets down like that. A neighbor told dailymail

110
00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:51.839
<v Speaker 1>dot Com exclusively that Coburger had only moved to the

111
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Steptoe Village apartment complex at the start of the semester,

112
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:58.079
<v Speaker 1>about two months ago. I didn't really know him, We

113
00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:00.600
<v Speaker 1>just said hi, said the neighbor, who wish not to

114
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:03.519
<v Speaker 1>be named. Sometimes he would make loud noises at night

115
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:06.800
<v Speaker 1>at like one or two am, like he was cleaning,

116
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:10.480
<v Speaker 1>vacuuming or something. Now, can't really read too much into that.

117
00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Who knows what his schedule was, or maybe he was

118
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:15.879
<v Speaker 1>up at that early in the morning. I don't know,

119
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:18.800
<v Speaker 1>but I certainly wouldn't want to live in an apartment

120
00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:22.639
<v Speaker 1>with somebody doing vacuuming or calisthenics or whatever the hell

121
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:26.199
<v Speaker 1>this dude was doing at two in the morning. The

122
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:28.839
<v Speaker 1>neighbors said that they can plain to the property management

123
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:31.759
<v Speaker 1>about the noise. He hasn't been here for a while.

124
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>We haven't heard any noise upstairs for around two three weeks.

125
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 1>I just thought he left for the holidays. I had

126
00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:40.199
<v Speaker 1>no idea about what happened. I just saw it on

127
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:43.920
<v Speaker 1>the news this morning, like everyone else. They added, and again,

128
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.800
<v Speaker 1>look for those of us following this case, it's bizarre

129
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>to think that other people weren't following it as closely

130
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:54.720
<v Speaker 1>as you are. But that's the truth. There's a lot

131
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:56.959
<v Speaker 1>of things going on in the world, and this doesn't

132
00:07:56.959 --> 00:07:59.839
<v Speaker 1>capture the attention of everybody like it does us. So

133
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:02.720
<v Speaker 1>some people weren't even hip to what was going on here,

134
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:06.240
<v Speaker 1>like this neighbor. A Rambo style knife was used to

135
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:09.079
<v Speaker 1>carry out the murders, police said, at the six bedroom

136
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:13.079
<v Speaker 1>rental property where three of the victims lived. The murders,

137
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.519
<v Speaker 1>the first in Moscow since twenty fifteen, left a small

138
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:19.120
<v Speaker 1>town of twenty five thousand people, in a state of

139
00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:25.000
<v Speaker 1>shock and the police desperately searching for answers. In Albrightsville, Pennsylvania,

140
00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:29.959
<v Speaker 1>access to Coburger's family home was blocked Friday by aggressive

141
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.639
<v Speaker 1>private security guards who prevented all but residents and law

142
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:38.159
<v Speaker 1>enforcement getting anywhere near the home in a gated community. Yeah,

143
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:40.919
<v Speaker 1>they're lucky they're in that gated community. Remember what happened

144
00:08:40.919 --> 00:08:44.799
<v Speaker 1>with Gabby Patito's parents. And I'm not a fan of that.

145
00:08:44.919 --> 00:08:46.960
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I don't think people should mob other

146
00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:51.519
<v Speaker 1>people's homes because there's neighbors. But it's going to happen,

147
00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:54.000
<v Speaker 1>and people are going to start camping out the whole thing,

148
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:57.039
<v Speaker 1>and people are gonna start asking the questions, well, did

149
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:59.039
<v Speaker 1>his parents know he went home and he stayed with

150
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:02.039
<v Speaker 1>his parents. Now, I don't know what they know or

151
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:04.440
<v Speaker 1>what they don't know. I'm just telling you how this

152
00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:10.039
<v Speaker 1>is going to end up playing out. This followed the

153
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:13.639
<v Speaker 1>arrest a spokesman for the Pennsylvania State Police at Friday.

154
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:17.440
<v Speaker 1>The Pennsylvania State Police today assisted the City of Moscow,

155
00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:21.639
<v Speaker 1>Idaho Police Department, Idaho State Police, and the FBI in

156
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:24.679
<v Speaker 1>the apprehension of a suspect in the homicides of four

157
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:31.159
<v Speaker 1>University of Idaho students that occurred November thirteenth. Brian C. Coberger,

158
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:34.919
<v Speaker 1>twenty eight, was arrested on a Fugitive from Justice warrant

159
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:38.039
<v Speaker 1>early this morning by members of Troop and and the

160
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Special Emergency Response Team at a home and chesnut Hill Township,

161
00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:47.399
<v Speaker 1>Monroe County, chesnut Hill Township. It's about fifteen miles southwest

162
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:51.600
<v Speaker 1>of Monroe County seat of Stroudsburg, where he appeared in

163
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:55.519
<v Speaker 1>court early Friday. He was also in a suicide vest

164
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:58.399
<v Speaker 1>when he appeared in court. Now, I wouldn't read too

165
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:01.559
<v Speaker 1>much into that, because they do that a lot of

166
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:04.840
<v Speaker 1>times with people like this, high profile cases. They'll put

167
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:07.480
<v Speaker 1>him in that suicide vest so nothing happens to them.

168
00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:13.120
<v Speaker 1>But he definitely was rock and one. Coberger was arraigned

169
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:17.519
<v Speaker 1>before on call Magistrate Judge Michael Mooth and remanded to

170
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Monroe County Correctional Facility pending extradition to Idaho. The statement continued.

171
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:27.399
<v Speaker 1>Then at a press conference Friday afternoon, Moscow Police Chief

172
00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:31.080
<v Speaker 1>James Fry gave few new details, but said his force

173
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:35.000
<v Speaker 1>had remained laser focused on solving the killings. Hey, look,

174
00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:37.039
<v Speaker 1>now's the time to give yourself a pat on the back.

175
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:39.960
<v Speaker 1>They did a great job here. They brought this dude

176
00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:42.480
<v Speaker 1>to justice. At least it looks that way. They made

177
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:45.759
<v Speaker 1>an arrest, and for me, that's great police work. So

178
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:48.240
<v Speaker 1>on to the next right now, it's not up to

179
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the prosecution to make sure that they can bring this home.

180
00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:56.399
<v Speaker 1>Coberger has been charged with four counts of first degree

181
00:10:56.519 --> 00:11:00.360
<v Speaker 1>murder and one felony burglary. Prosecutor Bill Thompson and told

182
00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:05.440
<v Speaker 1>the press conference Idaho is a death penalty state. He

183
00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:07.840
<v Speaker 1>is due to be back in court in Pennsylvania on

184
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:11.639
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday next week, and if he is convicted, and if

185
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:14.679
<v Speaker 1>he does get the death penalty, maybe instead of that,

186
00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:17.639
<v Speaker 1>he should just be given over to mister Gonsalvez and

187
00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:20.639
<v Speaker 1>the families and they can have some old school Western

188
00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:25.159
<v Speaker 1>justice and apply that shit to this disgusting animal. Because

189
00:11:25.159 --> 00:11:29.080
<v Speaker 1>anyone who's capable of going into somebody's house and brutally

190
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:33.080
<v Speaker 1>murdering them the way this man allegedly did, they don't

191
00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:37.039
<v Speaker 1>deserve any empathy from any of us, and society shouldn't

192
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.919
<v Speaker 1>have to carry the bill or foot the bill of

193
00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:42.879
<v Speaker 1>taking care of somebody like this, especially if they're convicted,

194
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:47.679
<v Speaker 1>and it's ironclad. Most certainly the death penalty should apply.

195
00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:53.639
<v Speaker 1>Frey defended the paucity of information release during the investigation,

196
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:57.759
<v Speaker 1>providing more might have alerted the suspect to our progress.

197
00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:00.279
<v Speaker 1>He said, and that's what it really was about. It

198
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:03.159
<v Speaker 1>wasn't about the jury pool. That was an old oakie doke,

199
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:06.200
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of word salad and well played on

200
00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:12.320
<v Speaker 1>Chief Fry's part. Coberger's arrest is the culmination of an

201
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:15.200
<v Speaker 1>investigation that has dragged on for more than a month

202
00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:19.519
<v Speaker 1>and left the Moscow Police Department facing a barrage of criticism.

203
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.919
<v Speaker 1>Cops have also been criticized for describing the murders as

204
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:28.120
<v Speaker 1>targeted while refusing to release any information to explain why. Now.

205
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:30.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure we're going to learn all of that as

206
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:34.240
<v Speaker 1>this unfolds, but I'll tell you to be cautious. And

207
00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:36.639
<v Speaker 1>this is why, because I doubt it's going to be

208
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:39.519
<v Speaker 1>a title wave of information that comes at you all

209
00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:41.960
<v Speaker 1>at once. It's going to be a bunch of trickles,

210
00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:45.120
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of little bits of information, and there's going

211
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:47.480
<v Speaker 1>to be a lot of secrecy still, just like we

212
00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:50.879
<v Speaker 1>see down in Delphi with Richard Allen and all of

213
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>the secrecy we saw around his arrest, So I expect

214
00:12:54.399 --> 00:12:57.039
<v Speaker 1>something similar here, and I don't expect us to get

215
00:12:57.080 --> 00:12:59.960
<v Speaker 1>all of the information and all of the context at once.

216
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:03.120
<v Speaker 1>It's certainly going to be a process leading up to

217
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:06.279
<v Speaker 1>the trial where obviously we'll get a whole lot more.

218
00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:11.039
<v Speaker 1>Sources say that authorities knew who they were looking for

219
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:15.080
<v Speaker 1>and hunted the suspect down to Pennsylvania in the Pocono Mountains,

220
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:18.440
<v Speaker 1>more than twenty four hundred miles from Idaho, so they

221
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:21.440
<v Speaker 1>were on it right. And with the FBI, you have

222
00:13:21.559 --> 00:13:24.279
<v Speaker 1>across state lines coming into play, and that's where the

223
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:28.720
<v Speaker 1>FBI actually excels. When you're talking about finding people across

224
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:31.679
<v Speaker 1>state lines or hunting down people with a task force,

225
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:36.519
<v Speaker 1>they're really good at that. News Nation reported that Coburger

226
00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:39.720
<v Speaker 1>had a quiet, blank sterere when arrested by local cops

227
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:43.960
<v Speaker 1>and the FBI on Friday morning. Coburger is a PhD

228
00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:48.000
<v Speaker 1>college student at Washington State University within the Department of

229
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:52.039
<v Speaker 1>Criminal Justice and Criminology, and did not attend the University

230
00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:55.159
<v Speaker 1>of Idaho. It is not clear whether he knew any

231
00:13:55.200 --> 00:13:59.360
<v Speaker 1>of the students he allegedly killed. Now I highly doubt it.

232
00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Early we were saying he was twenty five, but he's

233
00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:04.840
<v Speaker 1>actually twenty eight, So why would he be hanging out

234
00:14:04.879 --> 00:14:07.639
<v Speaker 1>with any of these kids. I highly doubt that he

235
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:11.480
<v Speaker 1>was in their circle or somebody that knew him. He

236
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:14.519
<v Speaker 1>obviously knew them, so I think the question there is

237
00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:17.799
<v Speaker 1>how did he know them? We know that he was

238
00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:21.840
<v Speaker 1>following them on Instagram at the very least, But like

239
00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:24.200
<v Speaker 1>I said in the very beginning, I can't shake the

240
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:27.000
<v Speaker 1>feeling that this has something to do with where they

241
00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:29.159
<v Speaker 1>worked at. You know, they were at the Mad Greek

242
00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:31.879
<v Speaker 1>and maybe this guy came in for lunch one day

243
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:34.960
<v Speaker 1>and saw them and took a liking to them. Who knows,

244
00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:38.000
<v Speaker 1>But when you're working at a transient spot like that

245
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:40.480
<v Speaker 1>that's right off of the highway, you have no idea

246
00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:43.399
<v Speaker 1>who's coming in and out of those doors. So that's

247
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:46.519
<v Speaker 1>certainly a possibility, And I can't wait to hear more

248
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:51.559
<v Speaker 1>context about what motivated all of this and why somebody

249
00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:55.279
<v Speaker 1>would be motivated to do something as heinous, as gruesome,

250
00:14:55.320 --> 00:14:59.879
<v Speaker 1>as brutal as what occurred here. He graduated from the

251
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Sallas University in Pennsylvania in May twenty twenty two with

252
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:06.960
<v Speaker 1>a Master of Arts and Criminal Justice. As part of

253
00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:10.120
<v Speaker 1>his research Coburger posted an appeal for help on social

254
00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:14.000
<v Speaker 1>media with his research, which was looking at how emotions

255
00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and psychological traits influenced decision making when committing a crime.

256
00:15:18.600 --> 00:15:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Some chilling shit when you go back and look at

257
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:24.799
<v Speaker 1>it in hindsight. Right. His sister, Melissa, is a mental

258
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:29.360
<v Speaker 1>health nurse in New Jersey specializing in trauma and emotion regulation.

259
00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:34.399
<v Speaker 1>Bill Thompson, the Leata County Prosecutor, was also seen outside

260
00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:39.360
<v Speaker 1>the apartment alongside investigators gearing up with protective booties before

261
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:46.440
<v Speaker 1>heading into Coburger's apartment in Washington and his sister that

262
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:48.919
<v Speaker 1>they were just talking about here in the article. After

263
00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:53.840
<v Speaker 1>the Uvalde shootings, she wrote a poem about those shootings

264
00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:57.600
<v Speaker 1>down there in Texas, and it again, pretty chilling when

265
00:15:57.639 --> 00:16:00.600
<v Speaker 1>you look at it in hindsight considering what her brother

266
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:04.679
<v Speaker 1>allegedly just did here. And in another episode later on,

267
00:16:04.759 --> 00:16:08.759
<v Speaker 1>we're going to talk about that poem. Law enforcement sources

268
00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:12.519
<v Speaker 1>told CNN that Coburger's DNA was discovered at the scene

269
00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:15.600
<v Speaker 1>of the crime, with officers managing to track down who

270
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.120
<v Speaker 1>owned the white Hondai a Lantra seen in the area

271
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:21.759
<v Speaker 1>of the slayings. You would think you're going to criminology school.

272
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:24.600
<v Speaker 1>You'd be smarter than my dumbass, right, what do you

273
00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:27.399
<v Speaker 1>do in driving that Hondai a Lantra, homie? But due

274
00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:29.480
<v Speaker 1>to that Elantra, they were able to track him down,

275
00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:31.759
<v Speaker 1>and boy, oh boy, he's gonna pay for it now,

276
00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:36.279
<v Speaker 1>isn't he. Authorities then discovered that he had left the

277
00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:40.000
<v Speaker 1>area and traveled to Pennsylvania, where an FBI surveillance team

278
00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.679
<v Speaker 1>had been tracking the six foot tall man. He was

279
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:46.080
<v Speaker 1>kept under surveillance, with the FBI watching him for four

280
00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:50.440
<v Speaker 1>days while investigators from Moscow Police and Idaho State Police

281
00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:54.399
<v Speaker 1>worked to get an arrest warrant. Friday sensational arrest is

282
00:16:54.440 --> 00:16:57.679
<v Speaker 1>the first major break in the case, with Coburger asking

283
00:16:57.919 --> 00:17:01.440
<v Speaker 1>if anyone else was arrested when he was taken into custody.

284
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:05.599
<v Speaker 1>Coburger has no prior arrests according to public records, so

285
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:10.400
<v Speaker 1>it's unclear how officials got hold of his DNA on Friday.

286
00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:14.200
<v Speaker 1>A chilling survey created by Coburger asking ex criminals how

287
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:19.000
<v Speaker 1>they felt while committing their crimes re emerged. Well, folks,

288
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:22.200
<v Speaker 1>this one's going to be evolving relatively quickly still, so

289
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:26.240
<v Speaker 1>as new information becomes available, we'll keep on top of it,

290
00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:29.119
<v Speaker 1>and we'll keep adding it to the catalog as it

291
00:17:29.160 --> 00:17:32.799
<v Speaker 1>becomes available. If you'd like to contact me, you can

00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:04.279
<v Speaker 1>Cohberger was attempting to get an internship with the Washington

299
00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:08.079
<v Speaker 1>State Police Department. We even saw some emails or heard

300
00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:11.440
<v Speaker 1>some emails between him and the chief at the time

301
00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:15.000
<v Speaker 1>of the department. But besides that, we really have had

302
00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:20.160
<v Speaker 1>no information or any clarity about what went down after

303
00:18:20.200 --> 00:18:24.000
<v Speaker 1>that meeting. Was he offered the job, was he turned down?

304
00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:27.799
<v Speaker 1>We just don't know yet. But The Independent as they

305
00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:30.559
<v Speaker 1>try to dig for some more answers here, they have

306
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:34.599
<v Speaker 1>filed a public records request with the Pullman Police Department

307
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:37.359
<v Speaker 1>earlier this year, and now they're getting a little bit

308
00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:40.799
<v Speaker 1>of traction here. So let's dive into this article from

309
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:45.039
<v Speaker 1>the Independent and let's see what they've whipped up. Headline.

310
00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:49.039
<v Speaker 1>Police have no record of whether Brian Coberger was offered

311
00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:54.839
<v Speaker 1>internship position months before Idaho murders. This article was authored

312
00:18:55.079 --> 00:19:01.599
<v Speaker 1>by Andrea Blanco. The Washington State Police department that interviewed

313
00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:05.599
<v Speaker 1>Brian Kolberger for an internship months before the Idaho murders

314
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:10.680
<v Speaker 1>has no documentation regarding whether he was offered the position. Well,

315
00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:12.839
<v Speaker 1>you would think that if he was offered the position,

316
00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:15.680
<v Speaker 1>there would be a paper trail of that, right, A

317
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:21.880
<v Speaker 1>job offer some kind of paperwork to sign a congratulatory email. Hey,

318
00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:24.200
<v Speaker 1>here's the portal where you go and sign up for

319
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:27.160
<v Speaker 1>your benefits, whatever it might be. So you would think

320
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:31.160
<v Speaker 1>that there'd be a documented paper trail for something like that. No,

321
00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:34.799
<v Speaker 1>and that's why I said from the beginning, I doubt

322
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:38.000
<v Speaker 1>that he was offered this job or this internship. I

323
00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:41.079
<v Speaker 1>guess we should call it, but who the hell knows, right,

324
00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:44.319
<v Speaker 1>that's just my guess, because nothing lines up after that

325
00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:46.680
<v Speaker 1>as far as the job was supposed to start in

326
00:19:46.720 --> 00:19:50.119
<v Speaker 1>August or whatever, and he obviously didn't have the gig,

327
00:19:50.680 --> 00:19:53.599
<v Speaker 1>So unless he was offered it and turned it down,

328
00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:56.640
<v Speaker 1>which I would have a hard time believing considering that's

329
00:19:56.680 --> 00:19:59.079
<v Speaker 1>exactly what he was going to school for and what

330
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:01.480
<v Speaker 1>he wanted to do, you would think that he would

331
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:04.039
<v Speaker 1>jump out an opportunity to have a job like that.

332
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:08.480
<v Speaker 1>So the other alternative is after the interview he wasn't

333
00:20:08.519 --> 00:20:13.279
<v Speaker 1>considered for the position. The Independent filed a public records

334
00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:17.160
<v Speaker 1>request with the Pullman Police Department earlier this year, asking

335
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:22.000
<v Speaker 1>for any documents relating to mister Coberger's application for the

336
00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:26.480
<v Speaker 1>research assistantship for public safety position. One of the core

337
00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:30.240
<v Speaker 1>goals of the request was to determine whether mister Coberger

338
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:34.240
<v Speaker 1>had been offered the position, as the department had previously

339
00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:37.559
<v Speaker 1>declined to answer the question. And I know a lot

340
00:20:37.559 --> 00:20:40.319
<v Speaker 1>of folks are not big fans of the legacy media,

341
00:20:40.440 --> 00:20:44.440
<v Speaker 1>but if we had a functioning operational forth the state,

342
00:20:44.759 --> 00:20:46.799
<v Speaker 1>this would be the kind of thing they're doing all

343
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:50.160
<v Speaker 1>the time, trying to hold those in power to account.

344
00:20:50.359 --> 00:20:52.400
<v Speaker 1>That's what the fort the state is supposed to do.

345
00:20:53.000 --> 00:20:55.680
<v Speaker 1>They aren't supposed to get their marching orders from the

346
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:59.319
<v Speaker 1>state and then just go and repeat whatever they're told.

347
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:02.799
<v Speaker 1>So I'm always a big fan of escalating it. If

348
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:06.880
<v Speaker 1>you're a reporter or someone doing research and filing a

349
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:11.920
<v Speaker 1>public records request or a Freedom of Information Act request whatever,

350
00:21:12.720 --> 00:21:16.200
<v Speaker 1>because remember they work for us, and while a certain

351
00:21:16.319 --> 00:21:20.880
<v Speaker 1>level of operational security, if you will, is needed, especially

352
00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:23.960
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to having trials like this, there needs

353
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:27.400
<v Speaker 1>to be transparency and it can't just be an absolute

354
00:21:27.400 --> 00:21:30.559
<v Speaker 1>stone wall because if that happens, well, look what happened

355
00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:34.480
<v Speaker 1>with those UFOs that were shot down. Obviously not aliens, right,

356
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:38.920
<v Speaker 1>But when the government or the authorities don't come out

357
00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:42.839
<v Speaker 1>and fill the vacuum and give people good quality information,

358
00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:45.880
<v Speaker 1>that leads to the fertile breeding ground for all of

359
00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:49.839
<v Speaker 1>the morons, the grifters, and the bullshit artists. So that's

360
00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:51.880
<v Speaker 1>one of the main reasons why I'm such a big

361
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:57.519
<v Speaker 1>fan of transparency. A public records officer responded to the

362
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:01.480
<v Speaker 1>request with ten documents on Friday, but with a major

363
00:22:01.559 --> 00:22:06.319
<v Speaker 1>caveat The Pullman Police Department does not have any documentation

364
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:09.960
<v Speaker 1>regarding whether or not mister Coberger was chosen for the

365
00:22:09.960 --> 00:22:14.200
<v Speaker 1>internship position. The officer stated in an email, seems like

366
00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:17.680
<v Speaker 1>something that would be pretty easily rectified here, right, did

367
00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:20.759
<v Speaker 1>he ever work in the department as an intern or not?

368
00:22:22.119 --> 00:22:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Stop playing stupid and stop acting like you don't know

369
00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:28.240
<v Speaker 1>and then what they'll do sometimes meaning the police or

370
00:22:28.279 --> 00:22:32.039
<v Speaker 1>the FBI or authorities in general. They'll give you some

371
00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:35.400
<v Speaker 1>of the documentation, but not all of it. You should

372
00:22:35.400 --> 00:22:37.759
<v Speaker 1>see the battle that's going on to try and get

373
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:41.759
<v Speaker 1>information about Jeffrey Epstein's death. Still to this day, how

374
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:45.920
<v Speaker 1>many different requests have been denied. And when they want

375
00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:49.119
<v Speaker 1>to keep something secret, that's what they'll do. They'll say, oh, look,

376
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:52.279
<v Speaker 1>this is an ongoing investigation and we can't give you

377
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:56.960
<v Speaker 1>that information because it's sensitive to the integrity of our investigation.

378
00:22:58.359 --> 00:23:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Mister Coberger, twenty eight, is facing four murder charges in

379
00:23:02.240 --> 00:23:06.720
<v Speaker 1>the brutal stabbings of Madison Mogan, Kaylee Gonsalves, Xana Kernodle,

380
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and Ethan Chapin in an off cap Is rental home

381
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:13.839
<v Speaker 1>in Moscow, Idaho, on November thirteenth. He was arrested in

382
00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Pennsylvania on December thirtieth, and is now being held behind

383
00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:22.759
<v Speaker 1>bars in Idaho ahead of his June preliminary hearing. An

384
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:26.079
<v Speaker 1>Affid David for mister Coberger's arrest revealed that he had

385
00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:29.960
<v Speaker 1>applied for an internship with the Pullman Police Department, which

386
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:33.559
<v Speaker 1>has played a significant role in investigating the murder case.

387
00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:36.079
<v Speaker 1>And when you take a step back from all of this.

388
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:38.680
<v Speaker 1>It's just so wild, all of the twists and turns,

389
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:42.319
<v Speaker 1>the fact that this dude was a criminology student, and

390
00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:45.440
<v Speaker 1>the fact that he was trying to apply to work

391
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:48.599
<v Speaker 1>at this police department. And it was this police department

392
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:53.039
<v Speaker 1>who recognized Brian Kohberger after spotting the Hondai a Lantra

393
00:23:53.319 --> 00:23:56.480
<v Speaker 1>and running his license. So what could have been his

394
00:23:56.640 --> 00:24:02.440
<v Speaker 1>colleagues ended up being his pursuers. Last month, emails between

395
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:06.599
<v Speaker 1>mister Coburger and then Chief of Pullman Police Department, Gary Jenkins,

396
00:24:06.920 --> 00:24:10.680
<v Speaker 1>showed a brief exchange about the assistantship position for which

397
00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:15.119
<v Speaker 1>mister Coberger had applied last April. The documents turned over

398
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:19.279
<v Speaker 1>to The Independent last week show mister Coberger was one

399
00:24:19.599 --> 00:24:24.279
<v Speaker 1>out of four applicants for the job. Applicants were informed

400
00:24:24.519 --> 00:24:27.759
<v Speaker 1>on August twenty second whether they were selected for the role,

401
00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:31.519
<v Speaker 1>which was created to help support Pullman Police Department through

402
00:24:31.599 --> 00:24:36.680
<v Speaker 1>data management and analysis. Mister Jenkins, who no longer works

403
00:24:36.720 --> 00:24:40.000
<v Speaker 1>for the department, told The Independent he had been advised

404
00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:43.359
<v Speaker 1>not to comment on the matter when contacted on Monday.

405
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Although there is reportedly no email trail on mister Coberger's

406
00:24:47.960 --> 00:24:51.960
<v Speaker 1>job offer or rejection by the Department. The PhD criminology

407
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:55.839
<v Speaker 1>student at Washington State University, sent an email to mister

408
00:24:55.920 --> 00:25:01.240
<v Speaker 1>Jenkins following an approximately forty five minute online inter Now.

409
00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:04.759
<v Speaker 1>I said at the time that usually that's what you do, right.

410
00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:07.279
<v Speaker 1>You have an interview with somebody and you want to

411
00:25:07.400 --> 00:25:10.839
<v Speaker 1>send a follow up directly after the interview, thanking them

412
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:13.119
<v Speaker 1>for taking the time to see you, sit down with

413
00:25:13.160 --> 00:25:16.920
<v Speaker 1>you and give you the opportunity to plead your case

414
00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:20.319
<v Speaker 1>why you're the best person for that job. So I

415
00:25:20.319 --> 00:25:23.359
<v Speaker 1>didn't find that to be out of the ordinary. Now,

416
00:25:23.759 --> 00:25:26.200
<v Speaker 1>who knows if he was offered this gig, But if

417
00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:28.640
<v Speaker 1>there was only four other people or three other people

418
00:25:28.839 --> 00:25:31.480
<v Speaker 1>who were offered the job or who applied for it,

419
00:25:32.039 --> 00:25:35.079
<v Speaker 1>then that should be an easy process of elimination. No.

420
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Mister Coberger wrote that it was a great pleasure to

421
00:25:38.720 --> 00:25:41.519
<v Speaker 1>meet with you today and share his thoughts and excitement.

422
00:25:41.880 --> 00:25:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Mister Jenkins replied that it was great to meet and

423
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:48.160
<v Speaker 1>talk with you as well. The internship had been previously

424
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:51.319
<v Speaker 1>mentioned by law enforcement in the affid David for mister

425
00:25:51.400 --> 00:25:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Colberger's arrest released on January fifth. It stated that mister

426
00:25:56.039 --> 00:25:59.359
<v Speaker 1>Coberger had written in an essay that he had interest

427
00:25:59.400 --> 00:26:02.759
<v Speaker 1>in assisting rural law enforcement agencies with how to better

428
00:26:02.799 --> 00:26:09.200
<v Speaker 1>collect and analyze technological data in public safety operations. So

429
00:26:09.319 --> 00:26:11.920
<v Speaker 1>this dude wanted to go and work with rural police

430
00:26:12.079 --> 00:26:14.440
<v Speaker 1>because he thought he was smarter than him. And then

431
00:26:14.680 --> 00:26:17.640
<v Speaker 1>when he goes out here and decides to commit his

432
00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:21.519
<v Speaker 1>crime allegedly, Oh boy was in for quite the rude awakening,

433
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:25.079
<v Speaker 1>wasn't he. And when you look at the timeline him

434
00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:29.000
<v Speaker 1>not getting this job and then him having the altercations

435
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:32.119
<v Speaker 1>with the professor, and you see the downward spiral, And

436
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:34.119
<v Speaker 1>when you go back and look at it with hindsight,

437
00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:37.720
<v Speaker 1>it's obvious that he's bottoming out and he's in a

438
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:41.599
<v Speaker 1>spiral here. Around the same time that he applied to

439
00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:45.640
<v Speaker 1>the internship, mister Coburger also carried out a research project

440
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:51.079
<v Speaker 1>to understand how emotions and psychological traits influence decision making

441
00:26:51.359 --> 00:26:54.920
<v Speaker 1>when committing a crime. He reached out to reditors while

442
00:26:55.359 --> 00:26:59.680
<v Speaker 1>the Chilling Survey Reservicing after his arrest on December thirtieth.

443
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:04.200
<v Speaker 1>In particular, this study seeks to understand the story behind

444
00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:07.720
<v Speaker 1>your most recent criminal offense, with an emphasis on your

445
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:11.720
<v Speaker 1>thoughts and feelings throughout your experience, The post said, and

446
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it was crazy how quickly you read it got rid

447
00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:17.119
<v Speaker 1>of that post. They were out here like miracle made,

448
00:27:17.319 --> 00:27:20.359
<v Speaker 1>making sure they scrubbed every last bit of it. But

449
00:27:20.519 --> 00:27:23.440
<v Speaker 1>the Internet's forever, and there's people out there that are

450
00:27:23.480 --> 00:27:26.440
<v Speaker 1>going to archive things. You have the way Way Back Machine,

451
00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:30.240
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of different tools at your fingertips to get

452
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:33.960
<v Speaker 1>information that people try and erase off the Internet. And

453
00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:37.799
<v Speaker 1>basically it comes down to a race between citizen journalists

454
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:41.160
<v Speaker 1>and content creators to get to these bits of information

455
00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:45.079
<v Speaker 1>before they're scrubbed, because the legacy media they really have

456
00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:47.599
<v Speaker 1>no interest in that. They'll just sit around and then

457
00:27:47.640 --> 00:27:51.480
<v Speaker 1>they'll cherry pick information that the independent journalists go out

458
00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:56.319
<v Speaker 1>and collect. Mister Koberger applied to the position at Pullman

459
00:27:56.359 --> 00:28:00.519
<v Speaker 1>Police Department before starting his first semester at Washington State

460
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:03.480
<v Speaker 1>University last fall. He went on to work as a

461
00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:07.759
<v Speaker 1>teaching assistant in the Criminology department in August as part

462
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:11.319
<v Speaker 1>of his graduate program. It has since emerged that within

463
00:28:11.359 --> 00:28:14.880
<v Speaker 1>a month he was already under investigation by the university

464
00:28:15.200 --> 00:28:19.039
<v Speaker 1>because of behavioral problems and the sexist attitude towards women.

465
00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:22.000
<v Speaker 1>According to News Nation, So don't you think the Pullman

466
00:28:22.039 --> 00:28:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Police department would have talked to his professors and been like, Hey, look,

467
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:29.039
<v Speaker 1>we got this student of yours, Brian Kohberger, who wants

468
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:31.440
<v Speaker 1>to come and work for us. Anything you want to

469
00:28:31.480 --> 00:28:34.720
<v Speaker 1>share about his personality? Is he a good guy? Do

470
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:37.839
<v Speaker 1>you recommend him for our program? Are you trying to

471
00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:40.799
<v Speaker 1>tell me that none of those conversations ever occurred, because

472
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe that, and I guarantee you there's a

473
00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:48.720
<v Speaker 1>paper trail somewhere. The Outlet obtained the detailed timeline of

474
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:52.319
<v Speaker 1>his issues in the department, revealing that mister Coberger was

475
00:28:52.359 --> 00:28:56.279
<v Speaker 1>warned multiple times about his behavior and was brought into

476
00:28:56.319 --> 00:29:00.640
<v Speaker 1>several meetings with professors due to their concerns. His attitude

477
00:29:00.680 --> 00:29:03.640
<v Speaker 1>towards women was cited as a key concern, with a

478
00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:07.759
<v Speaker 1>criminal justice student, allegedly being rude to women, creating the

479
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:11.119
<v Speaker 1>women that he taught differently to the men, and having

480
00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:15.160
<v Speaker 1>a sexist attitude towards females he interacted with at the

481
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:19.680
<v Speaker 1>school in his brief four month stint as a teaching assistant.

482
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:24.880
<v Speaker 1>Mister Coberger also reportedly got into multiple altercations with one

483
00:29:24.920 --> 00:29:29.759
<v Speaker 1>of the professors, Professor John Snyder. On December nineteenth, just

484
00:29:29.799 --> 00:29:34.319
<v Speaker 1>eleven days before his arrest. Mister Coburger was ultimately fired

485
00:29:34.359 --> 00:29:38.720
<v Speaker 1>from his Washington State University teaching post, reported News Nation,

486
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:43.240
<v Speaker 1>and that was a culmination of all of his bs.

487
00:29:43.319 --> 00:29:46.359
<v Speaker 1>According to these reports, the way he was conducting himself.

488
00:29:46.559 --> 00:29:49.200
<v Speaker 1>You can't run around and conduct yourself like that and

489
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:52.440
<v Speaker 1>not expect to have some penalties come your way. You're

490
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:55.039
<v Speaker 1>not even a tenured professor yet. Bro. You got to

491
00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:58.039
<v Speaker 1>save you're bullshit for when you become tenured, because we

492
00:29:58.079 --> 00:30:00.319
<v Speaker 1>all know, if you're a tenured professor, you can do

493
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:04.640
<v Speaker 1>whatever you want. Basically, the suspect, now facing the death

494
00:30:04.680 --> 00:30:07.319
<v Speaker 1>penalty for four counts of murder, was linked to the

495
00:30:07.400 --> 00:30:11.119
<v Speaker 1>murders through DNA found on a knife sheath left behind

496
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:14.880
<v Speaker 1>at the scene, cell phone data, and surveillance video of

497
00:30:14.920 --> 00:30:18.160
<v Speaker 1>what prosecutors believe to be his white Hondai a Launcha

498
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:22.200
<v Speaker 1>leaving the scene after the slayings. One of the victims

499
00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:25.960
<v Speaker 1>surviving roommates was also able to partially describe the killer

500
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:29.519
<v Speaker 1>two investigators after she came face to face with them

501
00:30:29.720 --> 00:30:33.559
<v Speaker 1>in the aftermath of the murders. In January, police in

502
00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:37.680
<v Speaker 1>Washington unsealed search warrants for mister Coberger's apartment in Pullman

503
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:42.480
<v Speaker 1>and his office at Washington State University. The searches were

504
00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:44.759
<v Speaker 1>carried out on the same day that he was taken

505
00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:49.000
<v Speaker 1>into police custody in Pennsylvania. The unsealed documents reveal that

506
00:30:49.160 --> 00:30:52.839
<v Speaker 1>investigators seized a string of items from his home, including

507
00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:57.720
<v Speaker 1>possible human and animal hair strands, a disposable glove, items

508
00:30:57.759 --> 00:31:01.960
<v Speaker 1>with red brown stains, and d computer. The murder weapon,

509
00:31:01.960 --> 00:31:04.920
<v Speaker 1>a fixed blade knife, was not recovered during the searches,

510
00:31:05.319 --> 00:31:08.680
<v Speaker 1>and it is still unclear where it may be. Mister

511
00:31:08.759 --> 00:31:12.359
<v Speaker 1>Coburger is next schedule to appear in court on June

512
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:16.240
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixth for his preliminary hearing. I have a hard

513
00:31:16.240 --> 00:31:19.680
<v Speaker 1>time believing that there is no paper trail here this

514
00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:21.720
<v Speaker 1>day and age. You mean to tell me there is

515
00:31:21.799 --> 00:31:25.200
<v Speaker 1>no chain of emails that go from Brian Colberger to

516
00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:30.559
<v Speaker 1>Washington State University in some capacity, especially if he was

517
00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:33.279
<v Speaker 1>offered that job. There has to be a job offer, right,

518
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:36.519
<v Speaker 1>So I'm guessing that they're keeping it under wraps for

519
00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:40.640
<v Speaker 1>whatever reason, And maybe there's some kind of legal proceeding

520
00:31:40.680 --> 00:31:43.200
<v Speaker 1>going on behind the scenes where they're trying to keep

521
00:31:43.240 --> 00:31:46.920
<v Speaker 1>these emails sealed because they might be used and admitted

522
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:50.519
<v Speaker 1>as evidence. Or something like that. Who knows, but either way,

523
00:31:50.960 --> 00:31:53.440
<v Speaker 1>I have a very very hard time believing that there

524
00:31:53.480 --> 00:31:58.039
<v Speaker 1>is no paper trail, especially this day and age. All Right, folks,

525
00:31:58.039 --> 00:32:00.559
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna do it for this one. All of the
