‘Detached’ Suspect in Idaho Murders Studied Under Famed Criminologist

.... Public records list Kohberger as a registered libertarian voter and a criminology buff who comes from a family of mental health workers. He is a criminal justice and criminology Ph.D student at Washington State University—and lives on campus in Pullman, just eight miles from the Moscow crime scene. ....

Kohberger completed his graduate studies in criminal justice this year at DeSales University, in Center Valley, Pennsylvania, where students told The Daily Beast he took classes with Prof. Ramsland, whose courses included “Psychology of Death Investigations.” Ramsland declined to comment when reached by The Daily Beast Friday. ....

1. Not everything is political. This guy might just be nuts.

[UTUSN]

2. I'll pass it on to Yahoo - am just grateful he's not minority/Lib

[Mr.Bill]

3. Most Libertarians I have met

would be hard-pressed to state the meaning of the term.

I like this one:
A Libertarian is a republican who smokes weed.

[UTUSN]

4. Yea, ...

[BigmanPigman]

6. The word "hypocrite" must be in the definition someplace.

[Mr.Bill]

11. Or Anarchist. n/t

[mopinko]

21. and get laid.

[bbernardini]

22. Also...

A Libertarian is a Republican who knows an uncomfortable amount about the age of consent laws in each state.

5. Looking at the publications of his mentor...

...this guy seems to be fascinated by the psychology of serial killers. Perhaps he was struggling with the urge and turned it into his field of study.

Sort of reminds me of the recent series with Steve Carrell, "The Patient" about a young man trying to get therapy for his obsession to kill. Won't give away the plot, but it was a good series. Steve Carrell is great in it.

[UTUSN]

7. In the other case of SANTOS/lying - reminds me of the killer of VERSACE -

so SANTOS hasn't killed that we know of, but his weird lying & personality fantasy/reinventing is reminiscent of whatever clinical diagnosis the VERSACE killer had.

8. I agree, serial killer. Police should look into any unsolved murders in Pennsylvania where

he went to college.

[intrepidity]

13. "The Patient" was well done, but obviously disturbing

I kept vascillating on how believable it was, though.

[Iggo]

9. Hitler liked dogs.

But that really misses the point.

[Gaugamela]

10. Whenever someone tells me they're libertarian, I assume what they mean

is that they don’t know anything about politics and try to cover by sounding detached and cool.

[Bucky]

12. I don't think you can infer too much from his politics. He's mentally sick

Although I think libertarianism is rooted in a core misreading of basic economic principles, almost all libertarians I know are original thinkers with some strong abstract reasoning skills. That would make him a fairly crafty, dangerous criminal, one who can get away with a horrendous mass murder and evade capture for several months.

Obviously he's also an arrogant sociopath. Those people can be about psycho and highly intelligent too. Mostly I'm just glad he's off the street now

[czarjak]

14. LIBERTARIANISM: Screw anyone who isn't me.

They vote R and then swear they're not one.

[area51]

23. +1 n/t

[Raine]

15. I heard he was a vegan too

which sure doesn't help the image of us non-meat eaters. The guy is an overall freak it seems to me.

[brewens]

16. This is guaranteed to be interesting. Were these his only murders? I wonder if given his educational

background, what lengths he went to to avoid leaving evidence? Would a guy like that commit a murder just to see if he could pull it off and outsmart the detectives? Then maybe there were more people in the place than he counted on or something like that went wrong?

[betsuni]

19. But he parked his car, apparently, right in front of the house or in the vicinity.

Stupid! Pennsylvania police should reinvestigate any unsolved murders.

[Raine]

20. I wouldn't be surprised if he hadn't done other murders before

I don't think these kind of killers start out killing so many the first time. It seems like with Ted Bundy that's more the kind of murders they commit at the end of their reign of terror.

[EYESORE 9001]

17. These were my criteria for assigning the term 'libertarian'

Little-l libertarian: concern for individual freedoms

Big-L Libertarian: want corporations to be able to run roughshod over everyone else’s freedoms.

It is an outdated way of looking at it, because all of them - little-l or big-L, are all pretty much just MAGAt knockoffs.

[niyad]

25. And all libertarian politicians are hypocrites. They want "small" gov't, but big

enough for them to suck on the public teat.

[Samrob]

18. Described as "quiet/shy" 'mean-spirited/a bully" "overweight/thin as a rail"- amphetamines, maybe?

The descriptions of him given by those who knew him over years sounds like someone hooked on amphetamines (uppers).

The old "diet pill" portrait. Once legally prescribed back in the 60s and early 70s for weight loss and other medical reasons.

[Samrob]

24. Found this in article about the alleged killer. More reason to believe amphetamines involved.

“It seemed like he never slept because he was always doing something all night.”
