Bryan Kohberger’s troubling behavior at Washington State University raised red flags long before he was convicted of murdering four University of Idaho students. Newly unsealed documents reveal that female classmates took active precautions to protect themselves from the criminology Ph.D. student, who developed a reputation for being misogynistic on campus.
According to records and interviews obtained by People, Kohberger faced 13 formal complaints within just three months of beginning his doctoral program in criminology at Washington State University in 2022. The complaints, many filed by women, detailed discriminatory comments, harassment, and behavior that made female students feel unsafe.
