How Many Times Was Kohberger Removed From A Job or Class Over Creepy Behavior?
Aug 28, 2023, 01:00 PM
Recent episodes of the riveting podcast "Hidden Killers" delved deep into the mysterious case of Brian Kohberger. Host Tony Brueski, in an engaging conversation with retired FBI Special Agent and Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Robin Dreeke, shared intriguing insights into Kohberger’s psyche and the broader implications for society's approach to mental health.
The former FBI specialist began by highlighting the profound influence of one's upbringing on shaping their life trajectory. He stated, "Our genetics and biology give us what we're born with and then our upbringing, our nurture part takes over." Dreeke recalled writings from Kohberger’s teenage years which vividly portrayed his emotional turmoil. "You could hear the pain in his voice," Dreeke observed. The former agent continued, “You could hear how disjointed he was. And you could hear that this is the making of someone that if he doesn't get immediate help, he is going down the path of severe psychopathy, most likely."
Brueski delved deeper into Kohberger’s background, revealing how he was expelled from high school following complaints from female students. Such information fits seamlessly with the behavior pattern constructed from Kohberger’s youth, further emphasizing the necessity of addressing signs of severe psychopathy early.
The discussion took a broader turn when Brueski questioned the challenges parents face in the United States, particularly when they suspect their child might suffer from an innate mental condition. The reluctance of many to confront this reality can, according to Brueski, lead to cases where children are shuffled between classes without truly addressing the root problem.
Dreeke expressed profound empathy for parents grappling with such challenges. Discussing Kohberger’s family, he said, "From the optic that we've seen, when you do the thought experiment and you look at a troubled teen that appears, you know, the parents were involved in trying to do things." Drawing attention to Kohberger’s father’s attempt to help him socialize by asking neighbors to engage with his son, Brueski highlighted the parents’ awareness of their son's struggles. However, he also raised concerns about the limited resources and guidance available to parents in such situations.
Furthermore, the conversation touched upon the broader issue of mental health in the country. "Mental health still remains the problem," remarked Brueski, who noted the challenges of both recognizing potential mental health issues and effectively preventing them.
Brueski referenced a thought-provoking book, "Homo Deus," which delves into the future evolution of our species, particularly the quest to conquer death and discover happiness. He stated, "And part of that is going to have to overcome these mental health challenges. We're gonna have to really focus hard on our brain and how to make it healthy for everyone."
However, with the proliferation of true crime stories and discussions across media, the duo also questioned the potential ramifications for the justice system. Can the inundation of such content taint a jury pool or interfere with a fair trial? Dreeke believes it’s a double-edged sword, acknowledging that while early portrayals in series like CSI may have skewed public perceptions, unscripted discussions in shows like "Hidden Killers" might restore balance.
This episode of "Hidden Killers" masterfully interweaves the individual case of Brian Kohberger with the broader societal challenges tied to mental health, parenting, and media's influence, providing listeners with both gripping details and thought-provoking insights.
