Bryan Kohberger’s Mind Unpacked: FBI Profiler Robin Dreeke Breaks Down the Behavior

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.

Kohberger & Anne Taylor – What It’s Like To Defend A Murderer, Attorney Bob Motta Explains Description: What’s it really like to defend someone accused of the unthinkable? In this episode, criminal defense attorney Bob Motta gets brutally honest about what happens when you represent a client like Bryan Kohberger. From the public backlash to the private psychological toll, Motta breaks down the reality of standing beside a man accused of one of the most gruesome college town massacres in recent memory. We dig into Anne Taylor’s legal posture, her defense tactics, and what it means to be the last line of protection between a defendant and a potential death sentence—even when public opinion is overwhelmingly against you. Is it just about due process? Or does defending someone like Kohberger require a certain mindset? Motta doesn’t sugarcoat the burden and ethical complexities of the role, especially in a case this high-profile and this emotionally volatile. If you’ve ever wondered how any lawyer can walk into court and say “Not Guilty” for someone like Kohberger—this episode will answer that question. #BryanKohberger #DefenseAttorney #AnneTaylor #TrueCrimeLaw #BobMotta #KohbergerCase #CriminalDefense #KohbergerGuiltyPlea #HiddenKillersPodcast #TrueCrimeDiscussion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Will Bryan Kohberger Explain The Motive For His Crimes In Court? The nation remains haunted by Bryan Kohberger’s chilling murders, but a crucial piece remains unknown: why did he commit these horrific crimes? Attorney Eric Faddis joins us to discuss whether Kohberger is likely to reveal his true motives when he addresses the court, and what his potential explanation could mean for survivors, families, and the public craving answers. With extensive legal experience on both sides of criminal cases, Eric Faddis examines how defendants typically handle the sensitive issue of motive during sentencing hearings, and whether Kohberger’s legal team would encourage him to explain himself—or remain silent. Faddis offers listeners a clear view of how a statement of motive could impact Kohberger’s sentencing, public perception, and legacy. Could admitting the "why" behind his actions serve any tactical benefit, or is silence his strongest card left to play? Beyond the legal strategies, we dive into the emotional and psychological stakes at play. Faddis discusses what it would mean for the families if Kohberger attempts to justify, rationalize, or explain his motives publicly. We also explore how a lack of motive affects public understanding of such crimes and what legal experts look for in cases like this to help unravel a killer’s inner reasoning. As we await Kohberger’s possible courtroom statement, Eric Faddis provides crucial legal and psychological insights, unpacking why we, as a society, are obsessed with understanding the minds of murderers. Join us for a powerful exploration into the significance of motive and how one criminal’s explanation—or silence—can shape our collective understanding of justice.

Howard Blum Reveals New Details Of Kohberger's Car Ride To PA With His Dad 17:11

Howard Blum Reveals New Details Of Kohberger's Car Ride To PA With His Dad Description: In one of the most chilling post-crime journeys in recent memory, Bryan Kohberger and his father drove nearly 2,500 miles cross-country from Pullman, Washington to Albrightsville, Pennsylvania — shoulder to shoulder, in the same white Hyundai Elantra investigators were scrambling to identify. In this episode, Howard Blum breaks down what really happened in that car, and why the trip might have been more than just a holiday homecoming. It might’ve been a slow-motion psychological unraveling . Blum reveals exclusive insights into what Michael Kohberger may have noticed during the ride: his son’s erratic behavior, route changes due to apparent paranoia, and the moment they were stopped by police not once — but twice. Why didn’t the father ask questions? Did he already suspect something? Or was this an episode of quiet denial playing out across state lines? With Robin Dreeke offering a behavioral read on the body language and emotional tension of the ride, this episode explores how Michael Kohberger — a man who had already seen his son battle heroin addiction, weight loss obsession, and social dysfunction — may have begun to put the pieces together too late. Was the drive east a form of emotional containment , or the beginning of an internal reckoning for a father watching his son spiral? We examine the guilt, the confusion, and the quiet dread of a parent who may have realized too late that the son sitting next to him might be a killer — and why that ride may now become a pivotal chapter in the larger story of this case.

Howard Blum Breaks Down What He Believes Kohberger Said To His Parents The Morning Of The Idaho Tragedy Description: In this gripping episode, NYT bestselling author and investigative journalist Howard Blum joins Hidden Killers to dissect a moment that could hold the emotional key to understanding the entire Bryan Kohberger case: a 6 a.m. phone call made just hours after the University of Idaho murders , from Bryan to a phone registered to his father, Michael Kohberger. What was said on that call? Why does it matter? And how did it shape everything that followed — from the legal strategy to the plea deal? According to Blum’s exclusive reporting, Bryan may have spent the bulk of that conversation speaking to his mother , and the contents of the call sent ripples through the family that changed the course of the case. Blum walks us through what his sources revealed about the emotional state of the Kohberger household, and how the mother’s refusal to accept a guilty plea — possibly based on what was said during that call — may have delayed the prosecution’s path forward. This episode doesn’t just unpack speculation. It connects the behavioral shifts , the timeline of events, and the ripple effect that one 54-minute call may have had on the lives of everyone involved — including the defense's strategic collapse and the looming threat of testimony from the parents themselves. With Robin Dreeke offering behavioral insight and Tony Brueski guiding the conversation, we explore how the most private conversation of Kohberger’s life may become one of the most revealing.

Behind The Curtain Of Anne Taylor & Bryan Kohberger’s Choice To Plead Guilty Description: In this episode, veteran defense attorney Bob Motta pulls back the curtain on one of the most shocking twists in the Bryan Kohberger case—his decision to plead guilty. Alongside Anne Taylor, Kohberger’s defense attorney who has been under intense public scrutiny since day one, this calculated move signals the end of a potential death penalty trial, but the beginning of a much deeper conversation. Why now? Why plead guilty after nearly three years of court battles and defense delays? What internal discussions might have taken place between Taylor, Kohberger, and his family behind closed doors? And what does this say about Taylor’s strategy all along? Bob Motta, a defense attorney who understands the psychology of the courtroom and the human element behind legal decisions, brings sharp insight into what likely led to this dramatic pivot. We explore whether Taylor’s goal was always to save Kohberger’s life rather than win a trial, and what it means for the families who were robbed of a public reckoning in court. This is a raw, no-fluff, deeply informed conversation about power, legal strategy, and the high-stakes reality of defending the accused in one of the most disturbing murder cases in recent history. #BryanKohberger #AnneTaylor #TrueCrimePodcast #KohbergerPleaDeal #BobMotta #DefenseAttorney #HiddenKillers #KohbergerTrial #KohbergerUpdate #JusticeForTheVictims Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Was Judge Stephen Hippler Tone Deaf To The Pain Of Kohberger's Victims' Families When Judge Stephen Hippler agreed to accept Bryan Kohberger’s shocking guilty plea, he made a decision that would spare Kohberger the death penalty—but at what emotional cost to the families of the victims? Attorney Eric Faddis joins the conversation to dissect Judge Hippler’s controversial decision-making and address whether he failed to adequately consider the deep anguish and heartbreak expressed by the families who demanded a full trial. Throughout this episode, Faddis draws upon his extensive courtroom experience, both as a defense attorney and a former prosecutor, to explore the complexities judges face in balancing the interests of swift justice with the emotional devastation of survivors. Faddis evaluates the potential consequences of Judge Hippler’s choice, including public perception of fairness, the potential for closure (or lack thereof) for grieving families, and broader implications for the criminal justice system’s handling of high-profile murder cases. Listeners will hear an in-depth analysis of Judge Hippler’s courtroom conduct, his statements during the plea hearing, and how they might have come across to victims' families and the broader public. Was this decision legally sound but emotionally disconnected, or did it represent a painful but necessary step toward a guaranteed conviction? Attorney Eric Faddis expertly breaks down the judge’s actions and explains the nuances of sentencing decisions, giving listeners a behind-the-scenes look at the complex psychology and emotional weight inherent in capital murder cases. Prepare for an honest discussion about empathy, judicial responsibility, and whether the judge adequately honored the pain and voices of those who lost loved ones to Bryan Kohberger’s horrific crimes.

Big Breakdown – Was Justice Denied To The Victims’ Families Of Bryan Kohberger? Bryan Kohberger’s guilty plea to the murders of four University of Idaho students may have ended the legal battle, but for many of the victims’ families, the war for justice is far from over. In this episode, we break down the shocking plea deal that spared Kohberger the death penalty in exchange for multiple life sentences. With DNA on the knife sheath, cell tower data placing him near the house, vehicle tracking, and surveillance footage showing his car circling the crime scene, the prosecution had a solid case. So why the deal? We explore the pain and backlash from the Goncalves family, who say they were blindsided by prosecutors and left out of the decision entirely. For them, the guilty plea was not justice—it was a betrayal. Meanwhile, other families accepted the plea as a way to avoid years of trauma in court. The emotional divide is palpable. You’ll hear legal analysis on Idaho’s plea bargain rules, the power victims’ families don’t have in these deals, and whether the state traded transparency for convenience. Did the justice system just close the book to avoid airing more difficult truths? Or was this the cleanest path forward?
