Latest / Beyond The Horizon / Mega Edition: Bryan Kohberger's Life In Jail Leading Up To The Trial That Never Came (8/27/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up everyone and welcome back to the program. Brian
- 0:05Speaker 1: Koberger is living a rather secluded life in jail according
- 0:10Speaker 1: to sources. He doesn't get to associate with the other
- 0:14Speaker 1: prisoners and in fact is kept under constant supervision and
- 0:19Speaker 1: constant guard. The only time that he really gets to
- 0:24Speaker 1: associate with other people is when he's talking to his pastors.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Because, you know, once you go to jail, you find God.
- 0:31Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, miraculously, you're as religious as
- 0:36Speaker 1: one of Jesus' disciples. Isn't it funny how that works?
- 0:40Speaker 1: You would think that you'd find Jesus or God before
- 0:43Speaker 1: you murdered four people. But don't let that get in
- 0:46Speaker 1: the way of you becoming a holy man or anything
- 0:49Speaker 1: like that. I could have sworn that there were some commandments,
- 0:52Speaker 1: you know, that talked about thou shall not kill. But
- 0:55Speaker 1: maybe I'm wrong. Maybe Brian Koberger has found a different
- 0:58Speaker 1: religion that none of us are aware of. Maybe he
- 1:02Speaker 1: is part of a new church called the Church.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Of the Inflamed Toe. Who knows?
- 1:08Speaker 1: Because as far as I know, in Christianity, thou shall
- 1:11Speaker 1: not kill is one of the most important tenets. So
- 1:15Speaker 1: all of these people who end up going to prison
- 1:18Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they find God, I find
- 1:21Speaker 1: it laughable at best. Today's article is from Newsweek. Headline,
- 1:28Speaker 1: Brian Koberger's secluded life inside jail.
- 1:31Speaker 2: Reports.
- 1:32Speaker 1: This article was authored by James Bickerton. Brian Koberger, who
- 1:39Speaker 1: is accused of murdering four University of Idaho students in
- 1:43Speaker 1: the early hours of November 13th, is quiet and does,
- 1:48Speaker 1: as he's told in prison, according to a media report.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Probably a good idea.
- 1:53Speaker 1: One would think that if you're on trial for a
- 1:56Speaker 1: quadruple murder and you haven't been found guilty yet, you'd
- 2:00Speaker 1: be on your best behavior while you're in the lockup.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I'm sure the jury doesn't want to hear reports of
- 2:05Speaker 1: someone acting like an absolute boob while they're locked up
- 2:08Speaker 1: waiting for trial. So probably a good idea not to
- 2:12Speaker 1: wild out. Kohlberger is being held without bail at the
- 2:16Speaker 1: Latah County Jail in Moscow, Idaho. the same town where
- 2:20Speaker 1: the four students were killed. The jail where the suspect
- 2:23Speaker 1: is being held in solitary confinement is located in the
- 2:28Speaker 1: basement of the Latah County Courthouse. In January, Koberger was
- 2:33Speaker 1: charged with four counts of first-degree murder and one felony
- 2:37Speaker 1: burglary after being arrested on December 30th at his parents'
- 2:41Speaker 1: home in Pennsylvania. He is accused of killing Kaylee Gonsalves,
- 2:46Speaker 1: Madison Mogan, Zanna Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, all of whom
- 2:51Speaker 1: were stabbed to death in a shared student house. While
- 2:54Speaker 1: Koberger has yet to enter a plea in court, his
- 2:58Speaker 1: legal representative in Pennsylvania said shortly after his arrest that
- 3:02Speaker 1: he was eager to be exonerated. Speaking to DailyMail.com, one
- 3:07Speaker 1: inmate at the jail said Koberger follows his case obsessively
- 3:11Speaker 1: on a television set inside his cell. The inmate said
- 3:15Speaker 1: he watches himself all the time. It's really kind of bizarre.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Not really, when you think about it. These kinds of people,
- 3:22Speaker 1: if Brian Koberger is the man the government tells us
- 3:25Speaker 1: he is, they get off on this. They want to
- 3:28Speaker 1: be involved. They want to watch themselves on TV. They
- 3:31Speaker 1: want to go back to the crime scene. They want
- 3:33Speaker 1: to go to the candlelight vigil. And that certainly has
- 3:37Speaker 1: been something that we have seen from these kinds of
- 3:40Speaker 1: individuals in the past. And when we learned about Brian
- 3:44Speaker 1: Koberger's online activities... Well, it just solidified for me anyway
- 3:48Speaker 1: that he was following along with this case very, very closely.
- 3:52Speaker 1: And then to find out that while he's in jail,
- 3:56Speaker 1: it's basically all that he watches? Yeah, I think that
- 3:59Speaker 1: Brian Koberger is certainly fitting into a profile here. And
- 4:03Speaker 1: unfortunately for Brian Koberger, that profile fits nice and snug
- 4:08Speaker 1: next to a lot of other killers that we've talked about.
- 4:12Speaker 1: According to News Nation's Ashley Banfield... Koberger is able to
- 4:15Speaker 1: choose which channel he wants to watch in contrast to
- 4:18Speaker 1: other prisoners who can only view what is selected by
- 4:21Speaker 1: their jailers on a shared TV. Why do these people
- 4:25Speaker 1: like Brian Koberger get special treatment? Why does he have
- 4:29Speaker 1: all these other channels and the other prisoners only get
- 4:32Speaker 1: to watch one channel? This dude should have to watch
- 4:35Speaker 1: like Bob Ross all day.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Oh, pretty tree. Look at the pretty tree.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Instead, they're letting him fawn over himself and engage in
- 4:44Speaker 1: all kinds of weird-ass self-aggrandizing. A source inside the jail
- 4:49Speaker 1: said Koberger receives mass every Sunday at 7 p.m. Addressing
- 4:54Speaker 1: a DailyMail.com reporter, they said, he sits down with the
- 4:57Speaker 1: pastor and receives his own private mass. It's just the
- 5:01Speaker 1: two of them, and no, I have no idea what
- 5:04Speaker 1: they might talk about. One prisoner who had seen Koberger
- 5:08Speaker 1: being moved about said, He always has the same expression
- 5:12Speaker 1: or non-expression.
- 5:14Speaker 2: Seems to be the case.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Every picture we've seen of this dude, he looks exactly
- 5:18Speaker 1: the same to me. He has that deadpan ass stare.
- 5:21Speaker 1: You know, the thousand yard stare that you get if
- 5:24Speaker 1: you're like in a war zone or something. Yeah, he
- 5:26Speaker 1: certainly is rocking that. Has that soulless look to him.
- 5:30Speaker 1: And he just looks like he is disassociated from reality.
- 5:36Speaker 1: He just looks straight ahead. I've never even seen his
- 5:39Speaker 1: eyebrows or mouth move. He never says anything. Banfield said
- 5:43Speaker 1: she was told Koberger had been very polite and hasn't
- 5:47Speaker 1: made any trouble for anyone since arriving at the jail.
- 5:51Speaker 1: And remember, he's being held in solitary confinement. So there
- 5:55Speaker 1: is a limit on the access he has to other
- 5:58Speaker 1: inmates or on the flip side of that, that the
- 6:01Speaker 1: other inmates have to him. So there's really not an
- 6:04Speaker 1: opportunity to for him to wild out, if you will. Unless,
- 6:08Speaker 1: of course, he wants to act out against the guards.
- 6:11Speaker 1: And with him facing trial here, I don't think this
- 6:14Speaker 1: is the right time to do that. If you want
- 6:16Speaker 1: to act like a jerk off in prison, then that's
- 6:18Speaker 1: one thing. But right now, while you're in the lockup,
- 6:21Speaker 1: waiting to be convicted or waiting to go to trial,
- 6:24Speaker 1: probably a good idea to be on your best behavior.
- 6:30Speaker 1: She added, a source who has intimate knowledge of Brian
- 6:32Speaker 1: Koberger in jail... has told us that upon setting eyes
- 6:36Speaker 1: on Kohlberger for the first time in person, it was
- 6:39Speaker 1: a whole other image. On television, the description was that
- 6:43Speaker 1: he looked like a toothpick, a skinny toothpick on TV.
- 6:47Speaker 2: I didn't see that. Guy looks like he's in decent
- 6:49Speaker 2: shape to me.
- 6:50Speaker 1: And from all of the reports we heard, we know
- 6:53Speaker 1: that he runs, he works out, and keeps himself in
- 6:57Speaker 1: pretty good physical shape. And you have to be in
- 7:00Speaker 1: pretty good physical shape to commit the kind of crime
- 7:03Speaker 1: that they're saying that he committed, right? To kill four
- 7:06Speaker 1: people with a knife? That is not an easy thing
- 7:09Speaker 1: to do. So if you're not in good shape, or
- 7:12Speaker 1: at least not in decent shape, then you're going to
- 7:16Speaker 1: tire out real quick. And if Brian Koberger has been
- 7:19Speaker 1: planning all of this, you would have to think the
- 7:21Speaker 1: fitness portion of it was part of it. If you
- 7:24Speaker 1: want your plant to succeed, you have to be physically
- 7:27Speaker 1: capable of carrying it out. But the toothpick image on TV,
- 7:32Speaker 1: according to this source, in person, it looks like he
- 7:35Speaker 1: is well over 200 pounds and is quite imposing. Koberger
- 7:40Speaker 1: was a criminology graduate student and sometimes teaching assistant at
- 7:45Speaker 1: Washington State University when the murders took place.
- 7:49Speaker 2: It's interesting to hear about.
- 7:50Speaker 1: What this dude's up to while he's locked up and
- 7:53Speaker 1: what his behavior is, but this is exactly what I expected.
- 7:57Speaker 1: I didn't expect him to have any kind of issues
- 7:59Speaker 1: while in lockup. A, he's not going to be around
- 8:02Speaker 1: other prisoners, and B, he doesn't want to take the
- 8:06Speaker 1: chance of ruining himself come trial time. As far as
- 8:10Speaker 1: him being able to watch himself on TV, however, I
- 8:13Speaker 1: think that's a bit crazy. He should be under the
- 8:15Speaker 1: same restrictions as the rest of the inmates. Whatever they're watching,
- 8:19Speaker 1: he should be watching. I don't know why guys like
- 8:22Speaker 1: this get special privileges while they're locked up. Now, another
- 8:26Speaker 1: interesting bit of information that has been released over the
- 8:29Speaker 1: last couple of days is how much money it cost
- 8:32Speaker 1: to fly Brian Koberger from Pennsylvania to Idaho. And to
- 8:37Speaker 1: talk about that, we have an article from KTVB Channel 7. Headline,
- 8:44Speaker 1: how much did police spend to fly Brian Koberger across
- 8:47Speaker 1: the country? According to a public records request, Pennsylvania State
- 8:52Speaker 1: Police spent $ 14, 100. That's quite a lot of money to
- 8:57Speaker 1: fly somebody across the country, throw this dude on Southwest Airlines,
- 9:01Speaker 1: put him in some handcuffs, and be done with it.
- 9:05Speaker 1: This article was authored by Alexandra Dugan and Danny Alsop.
- 9:11Speaker 1: Pennsylvania State Police spent $ 14, 100 per a records request filed
- 9:17Speaker 1: by KTVB to fly Idaho murder suspect Brian Koberger back
- 9:22Speaker 1: to Pullman, Washington for his extradition process.
- 9:26Speaker 2: The flight was a private police.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Plane which left Scranton, Pennsylvania on January 4th and then
- 9:33Speaker 1: arrived at the Pullman Moscow Regional Airport around 7.30 p.m.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Kohlberger was then booked into the Latah County Jail in Moscow,
- 9:42Speaker 1: where he remains until his preliminary hearing on June 26th. Kohlberger,
- 9:48Speaker 1: a former Washington State University graduate student in criminology, is
- 9:52Speaker 1: charged with first-degree murder in the deaths of Kaylee Gonsalves,
- 9:56Speaker 1: Madison Mogan, Zanna Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, who were found
- 10:00Speaker 1: stabbed to death in an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho,
- 10:04Speaker 1: on November 13th of 2022. Court records say police found
- 10:09Speaker 1: DNA on a knife sheath left at the scene that
- 10:12Speaker 1: matched Kohlberger's DNA. He was later arrested at his family
- 10:16Speaker 1: home in Pennsylvania in December of 2022. Pennsylvania State Police
- 10:21Speaker 1: could not specify if they are sending a bill to
- 10:25Speaker 1: Idaho State Police for reimbursement. But ISP spokesperson Aaron Snell said,
- 10:30Speaker 1: to his knowledge, they have not received anything to that effect.
- 10:35Speaker 1: Snell said that the cost of the flight usually includes
- 10:38Speaker 1: paying the pilot, the officers on the plane, and the
- 10:41Speaker 1: fuel costs. I mean, I guess it makes sense. You
- 10:45Speaker 1: got to pay people to do their job, right? But
- 10:47Speaker 1: I'm thinking over here that the marshals have some kind
- 10:50Speaker 1: of plane like in the movie Con Air. Let's get
- 10:52Speaker 1: that Con Air plane up in the air and let's
- 10:55Speaker 1: get the prisoners in that bad boy. But either way,
- 10:58Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting to take a look at
- 11:00Speaker 1: how much money that cost to fly Brian Koberger from
- 11:04Speaker 1: Pennsylvania to Idaho. I also think it's interesting that Pennsylvania
- 11:09Speaker 1: didn't ask to be reimbursed for that. So pretty interesting stuff.
- 11:13Speaker 1: And as these details continue to become available, we'll certainly
- 11:17Speaker 1: get them added to the catalog. All right, folks, that's
- 11:21Speaker 1: going to do it for this one. All of the
- 11:22Speaker 1: information that goes with the episode can be found in
- 11:26Speaker 1: the description box. What's up, everyone, and welcome back to
- 11:31Speaker 1: the program. Ever since the murders in Moscow occurred, The
- 11:36Speaker 1: Gonsalves family has been at the forefront demanding justice not
- 11:40Speaker 1: only for their daughter, but for all of the victims
- 11:43Speaker 1: of the alleged killer, Brian Kohlberger. And they have been
- 11:47Speaker 1: adamant from the beginning that they have not been treated
- 11:50Speaker 1: correctly by the investigators. And that's something that I pointed
- 11:54Speaker 1: out when all of this was happening in real time.
- 11:57Speaker 1: I said then that making them out to be witnesses
- 12:00Speaker 1: in this case so that they could gag order them
- 12:02Speaker 1: was reprehensible, and I still feel the same way. And
- 12:06Speaker 1: I also think that the ridiculous commentary that was fired
- 12:10Speaker 1: at Mr. Gonsalves throughout this whole thing has been completely
- 12:13Speaker 1: misplaced and misguided. It's real easy for somebody sitting on
- 12:18Speaker 1: Reddit or Facebook or something to have an opinion about
- 12:22Speaker 1: what Mr. Gonsalves should be doing or shouldn't be doing.
- 12:26Speaker 1: This man and his family just went through some of
- 12:28Speaker 1: the worst stuff you could possibly imagine. They should be
- 12:31Speaker 1: given space to grieve however they like. And if they
- 12:34Speaker 1: want to call out the investigators, then that's their prerogative.
- 12:38Speaker 1: And there shouldn't be any kind of punitive punishment for it.
- 12:42Speaker 1: And it seems to me anyway that you could look
- 12:44Speaker 1: at it through that lens. I mean, what, we've never
- 12:46Speaker 1: seen prosecutors play games like this before? And stuff like
- 12:50Speaker 1: this just once again swings the camera focus right over transparency.
- 12:55Speaker 1: The more transparency, the better. But one of the big
- 12:58Speaker 1: problems with the investigations into the murders in Moscow was
- 13:02Speaker 1: how bad the communication was between the investigators and the
- 13:06Speaker 1: public at large and the families. And because of that,
- 13:10Speaker 1: the Gonsalves family, they went out and hired a lawyer
- 13:13Speaker 1: named Shannon Gray. And Shannon Gray has worked as their
- 13:16Speaker 1: intermediary ever since. But in today's article, we're hearing more
- 13:21Speaker 1: from Kaylee Gonsalves' dad, Steve, about Brian Kohlberger getting all
- 13:26Speaker 1: kinds of pretrial privileges.
- 13:28Speaker 2: And when Mr.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Gonsalves asked who was paying for all of that, the
- 13:31Speaker 1: prosecutors refused to answer. Now, why in the hell would
- 13:35Speaker 1: they refuse to answer about who's paying for it? Especially
- 13:39Speaker 1: considering Mr. Gonsalves is a resident of Idaho, you know,
- 13:43Speaker 1: taxpayer of Idaho, nevermind the fact that his daughter was murdered.
- 13:47Speaker 1: And this is the kind of stuff that gets me
- 13:48Speaker 1: fired up. The prosecutors are out here talking about, oh,
- 13:52Speaker 1: trust us, we're doing the right thing. But at the
- 13:54Speaker 1: same time, we're hearing from the family something completely different.
- 13:58Speaker 1: So let's dive into this article from Fox News and
- 14:01Speaker 1: let's try and find a little bit of clarity in
- 14:04Speaker 1: all of this murk. Headline Brian Koberger's unprecedented pretrial privileges
- 14:10Speaker 1: include vegan food, new suits and a computer. According to
- 14:14Speaker 1: Kaylee Gonsalves's dad, this article was authored by Michael Ruiz.
- 14:20Speaker 1: Brian Koberger, the former criminology PhD student accused of fatally
- 14:25Speaker 1: stabbing four University of Idaho undergrads in a home invasion,
- 14:30Speaker 1: may be getting much better treatment in jail than other inmates,
- 14:34Speaker 1: according to the father of one of the victims. Koberger
- 14:37Speaker 1: has been held without bail in the Latah County Jail
- 14:40Speaker 1: in Moscow, Idaho, since January. I've been informed that his
- 14:45Speaker 1: pretrial privileges, like his five suits, video, and computer special treatment,
- 14:51Speaker 1: and vegan meals, are unprecedented in the history of Idaho.
- 14:54Speaker 1: Kaylee Gonsalves' father, Steve Gonsalves, told Fox News Digital, and
- 14:59Speaker 1: imagine hearing that news. Your daughter was found brutally slain.
- 15:03Speaker 1: This guy is charged with killing her. And then you
- 15:06Speaker 1: find out he's getting all kinds of privileges that nobody
- 15:09Speaker 1: in the state of Idaho has ever got before while
- 15:12Speaker 1: behind bars. I think that if that's true, Mr. Gonsalves
- 15:16Speaker 1: has a serious, legitimate beef. Why should this guy be
- 15:20Speaker 1: getting all kinds of benefits that nobody else is getting?
- 15:24Speaker 1: Now he should be given the same amount of benefits
- 15:27Speaker 1: that any other inmate or prisoner at the lockup is receiving.
- 15:31Speaker 1: Nothing more, nothing less. I said the same thing with
- 15:35Speaker 1: Ghislaine Maxwell when she was on her bullshit. Oh, I'm
- 15:38Speaker 1: not getting enough time with my lawyers, yada, yada, yada. Meanwhile,
- 15:41Speaker 1: she was getting more benefits than any other prisoner, not
- 15:45Speaker 1: only in New York, but basically in the federal prison system.
- 15:49Speaker 1: She was the second person to receive a visitor after
- 15:52Speaker 1: the COVID lockdowns were taken away from the jails. But
- 15:55Speaker 1: she didn't get treated right either. Now we're hearing that
- 15:58Speaker 1: Brian Kohlberger over here is getting himself a nice special
- 16:01Speaker 1: vegan menu, getting the homie hookup. Must be nice, huh?
- 16:05Speaker 1: I'm sure the other people in the lockup don't see
- 16:07Speaker 1: it that way, though. Shortly after Kohlberger's arrival in Idaho,
- 16:11Speaker 1: Latah County Sheriff Richard Skiles told Fox Nation the jail
- 16:16Speaker 1: would accommodate Kohlberger's request for vegan meals, typically vegetables or
- 16:20Speaker 1: rice and beans, but we are not going to buy
- 16:23Speaker 1: new pots and pans. This dude should be eating peanut
- 16:26Speaker 1: butter and jelly sandwiches. Oh, you want a couple of carrots?
- 16:29Speaker 2: Here you go.
- 16:30Speaker 1: Besides that, he should have to buy all of this
- 16:32Speaker 1: stuff that he wants from the commissary. Why should the
- 16:35Speaker 1: jail have to change it up for Brian Kohlberger? Maybe
- 16:39Speaker 1: I should have one of my best friends come on
- 16:40Speaker 1: the podcast and talk to you about his ten and
- 16:43Speaker 1: a half years in prison and we'll see if he
- 16:45Speaker 1: had the menu changed for him at all. Spoiler alert,
- 16:48Speaker 1: he didn't. The sheriff did not respond to a request
- 16:51Speaker 1: for comment. After the suspected killer's initial court appearances in
- 16:56Speaker 1: an orange jail jumpsuit, he began showing up dressed in
- 17:00Speaker 1: a suit and tie. Gonsalves said he tried to find
- 17:03Speaker 1: out who paid for the suits and get other information
- 17:06Speaker 1: about the defense budget through a public records request, but
- 17:10Speaker 1: it was denied under a gag order on the case.
- 17:13Speaker 1: They won't tell us, he said, but I witnessed the
- 17:16Speaker 1: moment they agreed not to handcuff him in court. Well, look,
- 17:19Speaker 1: I understand that and I understand the suits, but there
- 17:23Speaker 1: should be an accounting of where this money is going
- 17:26Speaker 1: and how it's being spent. How is that something that
- 17:28Speaker 1: should be under the gag order? That's ridiculous. And it's
- 17:32Speaker 1: one of my biggest problems with the gag order. They
- 17:36Speaker 1: use it as a shield so that they don't have
- 17:38Speaker 1: to give out any information whatsoever. And that's ridiculous. People
- 17:43Speaker 1: have had enough of the cloak and dagger. People have
- 17:45Speaker 1: had enough of the stupidity. And people want a full
- 17:48Speaker 1: accounting of what's going on. His daughter, Kaylee Gonsalves, was
- 17:54Speaker 1: found dead alongside her lifelong best friend and housemate, Madison Mogan,
- 17:59Speaker 1: also 21, in the latter's third-floor bedroom at their rental
- 18:04Speaker 1: house on King Road, just steps off the college campus.
- 18:08Speaker 1: On the second floor, police found their housemate, Zanna Kernodle,
- 18:12Speaker 1: and her boyfriend, Ethan Chapin, both 20. All four had
- 18:15Speaker 1: been stabbed to death, according to the county coroner. Two
- 18:19Speaker 1: other occupants were not attacked, including one who told the
- 18:22Speaker 1: police she saw a masked man leaving through the rear
- 18:26Speaker 1: sliding door, according to a December probable cause affidavit. The
- 18:31Speaker 1: affidavit remains the most detailed account of the allegations against
- 18:36Speaker 1: the suspect nine months later following the gag order. And
- 18:40Speaker 1: it's crucial for anybody out there who has not read
- 18:42Speaker 1: that affidavit yet. Make sure that you do. That affidavit
- 18:47Speaker 1: is super crucial to everything that we're talking about. So
- 18:51Speaker 1: it's super important that people read that affidavit if they
- 18:54Speaker 1: want to have an understanding of this case. Even before
- 18:58Speaker 1: the gag order, authorities were tight-lipped about the investigation, and
- 19:03Speaker 1: Kohlberger's defense attorney, Kootenai County Public Defender Ann Taylor, declined
- 19:08Speaker 1: to answer questions from Fox News Digital. Now both sides
- 19:12Speaker 1: are seeking to have news cameras removed from the courtroom. Yeah,
- 19:15Speaker 1: that looks good, huh? In a case where there's been
- 19:18Speaker 1: no transparency the whole entire time, now you're telling me
- 19:22Speaker 1: that we're going to remove the cameras too? Sure, that
- 19:25Speaker 1: looks great. Everybody's on board with that, said nobody. Regrettably,
- 19:31Speaker 1: it seems the judge and prosecutor are overly concerned with
- 19:35Speaker 1: accommodating the defense, leaving us, the advocates, for our children,
- 19:39Speaker 1: with no choice but to step forward, Gonsalves said. And
- 19:43Speaker 1: it's crazy to me that Mr. Gonsalves or any of
- 19:46Speaker 1: the family members would even feel like that.
- 19:49Speaker 2: But it doesn't. that way, doesn't it?
- 19:51Speaker 1: It seems like every decision that's been made, at least recently,
- 19:55Speaker 1: has been all about Brian Koberger. Well, what about the victims?
- 19:59Speaker 1: And what about the community and the people of Idaho
- 20:03Speaker 1: as a whole? Who's representing them? It's supposed to be
- 20:07Speaker 1: the prosecution, but when they keep making decisions like this,
- 20:10Speaker 1: it makes me wonder. I understand that they want to
- 20:13Speaker 1: protect the integrity of the case, and they don't want
- 20:16Speaker 1: to say anything, you know, untowards, but there certainly is
- 20:19Speaker 1: the appearance that they're bending over backwards for Brian Kohlberger.
- 20:24Speaker 1: Kohlberger's defense and Latah County prosecuting attorney Bill Thompson have
- 20:28Speaker 1: both asked Judge John Judge to bar cameras from future proceedings.
- 20:33Speaker 2: The court heard arguments.
- 20:34Speaker 1: On the issue Wednesday against and he said that he
- 20:37Speaker 1: would make a decision at a later date. A media
- 20:40Speaker 1: group led by the Associated Press is opposing the measure,
- 20:44Speaker 1: and outside experts say the arguments from both Koberger and
- 20:47Speaker 1: the prosecutor's office may be unfounded. Well, no shit they're unfounded.
- 20:53Speaker 1: For whatever reason, I can't tell you because I have
- 20:55Speaker 1: no idea, the prosecution is still hell-bent on secrecy when
- 21:00Speaker 1: they shouldn't be. They have the goods on this dude,
- 21:03Speaker 1: at least as far as we can tell. So why
- 21:05Speaker 1: such a move for secrecy? Just because both sides want
- 21:09Speaker 1: to hide the proceedings from the public doesn't mean that
- 21:12Speaker 1: the judge has to go along with that request, said
- 21:15Speaker 1: Royal Oaks, a Los Angeles media attorney who in the
- 21:19Speaker 1: 1990s successfully convinced a court to allow OJ Simpson's murder
- 21:23Speaker 1: trial to be televised. The public is entitled to see
- 21:27Speaker 1: the judicial system at work. As they say, sunlight is
- 21:31Speaker 1: the best disinfectant. And that's something I definitely agree on.
- 21:36Speaker 1: The more light of day something like this sees, the
- 21:38Speaker 1: better off we all are. Kohlberger is facing four charges
- 21:43Speaker 1: of first-degree murder and another of felony burglary. He can
- 21:47Speaker 1: face the death penalty if he's convicted. A judge entered
- 21:50Speaker 1: not guilty pleas on his behalf at his arraignment in May.
- 21:55Speaker 1: A trial originally scheduled to begin in October has been postponed.
- 21:59Speaker 1: So as you can see here, the Gonsalves family is
- 22:02Speaker 1: still swimming uphill when it comes to getting answers or
- 22:06Speaker 1: to getting any help from the prosecution. And the prosecutors
- 22:10Speaker 1: have had a bit of an adversarial stance with the
- 22:13Speaker 1: Gonsalves family throughout the entirety of this whole entire investigation.
- 22:18Speaker 1: And that shouldn't be the case. Now, I understand. that
- 22:21Speaker 1: they don't want people out there talking about the case, this, that,
- 22:24Speaker 1: the other thing. So fine, don't give the families any
- 22:27Speaker 1: inside information. But you should keep them in the loop.
- 22:31Speaker 1: And you definitely should be talking to Mr. Gonsalves if
- 22:34Speaker 1: he has questions about things like Brian Koberger getting the
- 22:38Speaker 1: homie hookup.
- 22:39Speaker 2: While in jail.
- 22:40Speaker 1: Because I don't know how that has anything to do
- 22:43Speaker 1: with the gag order. So hopefully, Judge Judge rules to
- 22:46Speaker 1: keep these cameras in the courtroom, but as I've said before,
- 22:49Speaker 1: I am not very, very confident that he's going to
- 22:52Speaker 1: do so. One thing that I can guarantee you, though,
- 22:55Speaker 1: is that we're going to be here every step of
- 22:57Speaker 1: the way. If you'd like to contact me, you can
- 23:01Speaker 1: do that at bobbycapucci at protonmail.com. That's B-O-B-B-Y-C-A-P-U-C-C-I at protonmail.com.
- 23:11Speaker 1: All of the information that goes with this episode can
- 23:14Speaker 1: be found in the description box. Fine. What's up, everyone,
- 23:18Speaker 1: and welcome back to the program. We've heard quite a
- 23:23Speaker 1: bit now about Brian Kohlberger and the trips to go
- 23:26Speaker 1: see the pastor while he's been locked up. Well, Daily
- 23:30Speaker 1: Mail has an exclusive interview with the pastor who's been
- 23:33Speaker 1: sitting down with Brian Kohlberger and talking to him about
- 23:37Speaker 1: his newfound faith in God. So today we're going to
- 23:40Speaker 1: dive right into that article from the Daily Mail and
- 23:43Speaker 1: see what this pastor has to say. So let's get
- 23:46Speaker 1: right to it. Headline exclusive. He can receive God's forgiveness,
- 23:52Speaker 1: but it won't relieve him of responsibility. Brian Kohlberger's prison
- 23:57Speaker 1: pastor admits counseling the accused University of Idaho murderer is
- 24:01Speaker 1: challenging stuff after he turned to Christianity behind bars. And
- 24:06Speaker 1: how come all of these knuckleheads have to wait until
- 24:09Speaker 1: they kill somebody or end up in prison before they
- 24:12Speaker 1: find God? Can't you find God before you become an
- 24:15Speaker 1: absolute scumbag? As far as the author of this article,
- 24:19Speaker 1: there isn't one listed, so I guess we'll go with
- 24:22Speaker 1: Daily Mail staff. Ministers who have been meeting with Brian
- 24:27Speaker 1: Koberger in the Latah County Jail are preaching the gospel
- 24:31Speaker 1: that even the greatest sinners can be forgiven by God,
- 24:34Speaker 1: but They recognize even Jesus Christ can't save the accused
- 24:39Speaker 1: quadruple murderer from the criminal justice system. We do not
- 24:42Speaker 1: tell folks that this will relieve them of their responsibility
- 24:46Speaker 1: for their crimes. Pastor Mike Hall, head of the group
- 24:49Speaker 1: that sends lay ministers to the jail, told DailyMail.com in
- 24:53Speaker 1: an exclusive interview. Regardless if you're in for some offense
- 24:57Speaker 1: like that or some drug offense, we're all on the
- 25:00Speaker 1: same plane in terms of our need for grace and
- 25:02Speaker 1: forgiveness from God. And I'll tell you, I have a
- 25:05Speaker 1: lot of respect for people that can find it in
- 25:08Speaker 1: their heart to forgive people like Brian Koberger. Because in
- 25:12Speaker 1: my heart, I can never find the room for it.
- 25:15Speaker 1: Once you're convicted of a crime like this, there's no
- 25:18Speaker 1: forgiveness from me anyway.
- 25:20Speaker 2: Certainly no empathy.
- 25:21Speaker 1: And I find it convenient, honestly, that all of these
- 25:24Speaker 1: scumbag criminals, after they're convicted of these horrendous crimes, all
- 25:28Speaker 1: of a sudden find their way to the kingdom of God. Yeah,
- 25:31Speaker 1: that's not transparent or anything. Dailymail.com can now reveal that
- 25:36Speaker 1: the 28-year-old, who has been locked up without bail in Moscow, Idaho,
- 25:40Speaker 1: since early January, sits down for one-on-one sessions with members
- 25:45Speaker 1: of Project Hope, Idaho, a local Christian organization that dispatches
- 25:50Speaker 1: about a dozen lay ministers to county jails and prisons
- 25:54Speaker 1: to provide gospel services and classes on Sunday nights. Koberger
- 25:59Speaker 1: leaves his cell at 7 p.m. on Sundays to meet
- 26:02Speaker 1: with the minister, who leads him in prayer in the
- 26:05Speaker 1: prison library. Yeah, I'm sure that it's all about God,
- 26:08Speaker 1: and it has nothing to do with breaking up the
- 26:10Speaker 1: monotony of being in that cell. Steve Otto, a board
- 26:14Speaker 1: member of Project Hope, said the decision to share the
- 26:17Speaker 1: gospel with Koberger is challenging stuff for sure. I found
- 26:22Speaker 1: myself praying quite a bit about truth and justice, he said.
- 26:25Speaker 1: My heart goes out to the victim's parents. I can't
- 26:28Speaker 1: imagine the pain they're feeling. We want justice done. At
- 26:32Speaker 1: the same time, Otto said, God is a God of
- 26:34Speaker 1: compassion and that extended to everyone. That's my personal hope
- 26:39Speaker 1: and that's my faith. I would say that he, Koberger,
- 26:42Speaker 1: is welcome to receive God's forgiveness and grace.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Well, that's fine.
- 26:46Speaker 1: That's between him and God, right? As far as I'm concerned,
- 26:50Speaker 1: if he's convicted, there is no forgiveness. There is no grace.
- 26:54Speaker 1: There's only a life behind bars. until he gets lined
- 26:57Speaker 1: up in front of that wall and killed, or gets
- 27:00Speaker 1: a needle shoved into his arm and killed. But besides that,
- 27:04Speaker 1: there's no grace, and at least for me, there's no
- 27:07Speaker 1: forgiveness either. Hall confirmed that members of the organization have
- 27:11Speaker 1: met with the accused killer, though he wouldn't disclose details
- 27:15Speaker 1: of the conversation. I know they've requested folks to sign special,
- 27:19Speaker 1: non-disclosure agreements. You can't discuss anything about it. It's a
- 27:23Speaker 1: requirement from the Sheriff's Department. A lot of that has
- 27:26Speaker 1: to do with the gag order, I'm guessing, and the
- 27:28Speaker 1: fact that they don't want anything to slip through the cracks.
- 27:32Speaker 1: The approach, however, is similar with all inmates, he said.
- 27:37Speaker 1: Members of Project Hope, established in 2008, read Bible passages
- 27:42Speaker 1: and teach Celebrate Recovery, a Christ-centered, 12-step program aimed at
- 27:46Speaker 1: helping individuals overcome their hurts, habits, and hang-ups, Hall said.
- 27:51Speaker 1: The gospel is meant for all of us. for all
- 27:53Speaker 1: have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
- 27:56Speaker 1: Romans 3.23, he said, citing the Bible passage they share
- 28:01Speaker 1: with the inmates. And anybody who's helping people get off
- 28:04Speaker 1: drugs while they're in prison, I think that's a great thing.
- 28:07Speaker 1: So if that's something that this group is doing, then
- 28:10Speaker 1: that's certainly a positive for the whole community. Because remember,
- 28:13Speaker 1: people who are in there for drug possession and shit,
- 28:15Speaker 1: they're getting out of jail. They're not going to be
- 28:17Speaker 1: in there for a very long time. So do we
- 28:19Speaker 1: want them to come out and do the same thing
- 28:22Speaker 1: over and over again and be a net negative on society?
- 28:26Speaker 1: Or do we want to help them get off these
- 28:27Speaker 1: drugs if possible so that they can come out and
- 28:30Speaker 1: live a life worth living? So having the resources available
- 28:34Speaker 1: while you're in prison to get off the drugs, I
- 28:36Speaker 1: think that's a great idea. Some of us have done
- 28:39Speaker 1: more and some less, he added, but God has shown
- 28:42Speaker 1: his love for us by giving his only son to
- 28:45Speaker 1: pay the penalty for our sin on our behalf. John 3,
- 28:48Speaker 1: 16 says, And Romans 3.21.31, that is God's intention for us,
- 28:54Speaker 1: that we have life as he talks about in John 10.
- 28:58Speaker 1: The evil one, the devil, comes to steal and kill
- 29:00Speaker 1: and destroy. But Jesus came that we might have life,
- 29:04Speaker 1: Hall continued. So when we go into jail or the prisons,
- 29:07Speaker 1: we share this good news with the inmates and invite
- 29:10Speaker 1: them into the kingdom of God where they can learn
- 29:13Speaker 1: to truly live. He was quick to stress, however, that
- 29:16Speaker 1: their ministry is not about excusing crime, stating that even
- 29:19Speaker 1: King David did not get away with his adultery with
- 29:23Speaker 1: Bathsheba and the killing of her husband, Uriah, as described
- 29:28Speaker 1: in 2 Samuel 12, particularly verses 9 through 12. The
- 29:32Speaker 1: gospel is truly good news, no matter what we might
- 29:35Speaker 1: face here in this life. Man, I wish I could
- 29:37Speaker 1: have that kind of faith. But on life has made
- 29:41Speaker 1: me way too cynical to dive into the deep end
- 29:44Speaker 1: of the faith pool. Dailymail.com spoke with current and former inmates,
- 29:48Speaker 1: as well as jail sources, to discuss Kohlberger's time at
- 29:52Speaker 1: the jail. Among other revelations are that Koberger gets his
- 29:56Speaker 1: daytime access to a television and likes to flip on
- 29:59Speaker 1: the news to follow coverage about his own case. He
- 30:03Speaker 1: watches himself all the time. One inmate told DailyMail.com, it's
- 30:07Speaker 1: really kind of bizarre. By all accounts, he has been
- 30:10Speaker 1: a model prisoner, a jail official tells DailyMail.com. This despite
- 30:15Speaker 1: facing taunts from inmates who sometimes shout at him as
- 30:19Speaker 1: he shuffled past their cells. Well, he better get used
- 30:21Speaker 1: to that. Because once he leaves the lockup and he's
- 30:24Speaker 1: on a main line, it's going to be go time.
- 30:27Speaker 1: These inmates, they already don't like him. And that's just
- 30:30Speaker 1: in the lockup. Imagine when he's in the federal penitentiary
- 30:33Speaker 1: with straight up murderers and savages and white supremacists and
- 30:37Speaker 1: you name it. Yeah, I'm sure they're all going to
- 30:38Speaker 1: love Brian Koberger. I'm sure he's going to be the
- 30:41Speaker 1: belle of the ball. When one inmate named Tyson hollered
- 30:44Speaker 1: bitch at the accused murderer during a recent weekday, Koberger
- 30:48Speaker 1: barely flinched. turning toward him with a menacing stare without
- 30:52Speaker 1: breaking stride as he proceeded down the hall, according to
- 30:55Speaker 1: one inmate who watched it happen. He always has the
- 30:58Speaker 1: same expression, or non-expression, said one inmate, who met with
- 31:02Speaker 1: a DailyMail.com reporter in the jail. He just looked straight ahead.
- 31:06Speaker 1: I've never seen his eyebrows or mouth move. He never
- 31:09Speaker 1: says anything. Well, why would he? It's in his best
- 31:12Speaker 1: interest to keep his mouth shut and certainly not talk
- 31:14Speaker 1: to any kind of jailhouse snitch, because that's what a
- 31:17Speaker 1: lot of these dudes are, let's be real. And the police,
- 31:20Speaker 1: the corrections officers, know that, and they strategically place these
- 31:24Speaker 1: kind of snitches in jail cells with people like Brian Koberger.
- 31:28Speaker 1: Obviously not right now, because there's too much going on
- 31:32Speaker 1: as far as the case, the notoriety. and security means.
- 31:36Speaker 1: But a lot of times, the prison will use a
- 31:38Speaker 1: snitch that is based inside the prison to try and
- 31:41Speaker 1: get some information from an inmate while they're in the lockup.
- 31:45Speaker 1: Kohlberger spends most of his time alone in a private
- 31:48Speaker 1: cell kept away from other inmates who share cells. He rarely,
- 31:52Speaker 1: if ever, chats with jailmates who typically only see him
- 31:56Speaker 1: when he walks past them. They say he maintains a
- 31:59Speaker 1: steely stare when he steps out to meet his lawyers
- 32:02Speaker 1: or to visit the library. and that he's always flanked
- 32:05Speaker 1: by several correction officers who escort him wherever he goes.
- 32:08Speaker 1: It'd be nice if they would have gave Jeffrey Epstein
- 32:11Speaker 1: that kind of protection in prison, huh?
- 32:13Speaker 2: That'd have been real nice.
- 32:14Speaker 1: Somehow, someway, though, Jeffrey Epstein, well, eh, slips through the cracks.
- 32:19Speaker 1: I guess that's for another story, though. The jail houses
- 32:22Speaker 1: a couple dozen inmates in a sprawling basement directly underneath
- 32:25Speaker 1: the Latak County Courthouse and Sheriff's Office near downtown Moscow.
- 32:30Speaker 1: Opaque windows... to some of the cells face a quiet
- 32:33Speaker 1: side street located just 1.4 miles from the rental home
- 32:38Speaker 1: where four University of Idaho students were slaughtered during the
- 32:41Speaker 1: pre-dawn hours of November 13th. Police arrested Koberger, a Ph.D.
- 32:46Speaker 1: student in criminology, at nearby Washington State University in Pullman
- 32:51Speaker 1: on December 30th. He has been held without bail in
- 32:54Speaker 1: Moscow jail since January 4th, pending his next court hearing
- 32:58Speaker 1: on June 26th. the case could give him the death penalty.
- 33:03Speaker 1: I hope he gets the death penalty, inmate Harrison Papillon said.
- 33:07Speaker 1: I'd be shocked if he didn't. And I'll tell you what,
- 33:09Speaker 1: I'd be shocked if he didn't as well. We saw
- 33:12Speaker 1: with Lori Vallow that she didn't get it. But so far,
- 33:15Speaker 1: all the signs are pointing to Brian Kohlberger getting the
- 33:18Speaker 1: death penalty if he's convicted of these crimes. Lata jail
- 33:23Speaker 1: officials remain tight-lipped about Kohlberger's time behind bars. One official
- 33:27Speaker 1: told DailyMail.com that Kohlberger's been well-behaved during his time there
- 33:32Speaker 1: with no incidents. The official also pointed out that Kohlberger's
- 33:36Speaker 1: strict vegan dietary needs are being met by the vendor
- 33:39Speaker 1: that prepares meals for the prisoners. Must be nice, huh?
- 33:43Speaker 1: Let me get my tofu steak, pal. But despite his
- 33:46Speaker 1: quiet demeanor, inmates say that they're well aware of the
- 33:49Speaker 1: gruesome crime he's accused of carrying out. They follow the
- 33:53Speaker 1: case intently on the news and discuss their infamous fellow inmate, daily.
- 33:58Speaker 1: I've been reading about the whole case since it started
- 34:01Speaker 1: and knew he was in there, said recently released inmate
- 34:04Speaker 1: Kyle Ledet. It's disturbing that something like that can happen
- 34:07Speaker 1: in my hometown. I'm just happy I wasn't in the
- 34:10Speaker 1: same cell as his. I've only seen him a few times,
- 34:13Speaker 1: he added. He was wearing orange sweats, an orange t-shirt
- 34:16Speaker 1: with two guards accompanying him wherever he needs to go.
- 34:20Speaker 1: Ledet described the jail as cold and disgusting. Well, it
- 34:24Speaker 1: is jail, What's it supposed to be? Homely, warm, and welcoming?
- 34:29Speaker 1: He shared a cell with five people who get access
- 34:32Speaker 1: to any adjoining day room where they could watch TV, eat, shower,
- 34:36Speaker 1: and talk. We'd always talk about the fact that he
- 34:39Speaker 1: was in the same jail with us. Ledet told DailyMail.com,
- 34:43Speaker 1: Nobody liked the guy, I can tell you that. There's
- 34:45Speaker 1: a lot of hatred. But we were in awe of him.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Nothing like that really happens around Moscow. It shocked a
- 34:51Speaker 1: lot of people. Papillon said he's tried to get intel
- 34:54Speaker 1: about Koberger's time in jail, but the officers there don't
- 34:57Speaker 1: share much of anything. He's only about 30 feet from
- 35:00Speaker 1: my cell, he said.
- 35:02Speaker 2: It's truly crazy.
- 35:03Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm in here with one of the
- 35:05Speaker 1: most infamous alleged mass murderers in the United States. Well,
- 35:09Speaker 1: they might be in awe of Brian Koberger in the
- 35:11Speaker 1: county jail, but that awe is certainly going to turn
- 35:15Speaker 1: to disdain once he gets to the state level, right?
- 35:18Speaker 1: Once he's at the state penitentiary, things are going to
- 35:21Speaker 1: change drastically. Everything that's going on in that state penitentiary
- 35:25Speaker 1: is being run by the gangs. So if they say
- 35:27Speaker 1: that Brian Kohlberger is going to be greenlit the second
- 35:30Speaker 1: he hits the yard, he's going to be greenlit.
- 35:32Speaker 2: But I highly.
- 35:33Speaker 1: Doubt that he's going to end up on the main line.
- 35:36Speaker 1: He's going to end up PCing up and going on
- 35:38Speaker 1: to the protected yard with the Chomos and the other
- 35:42Speaker 1: snitches and other undesirables in the prison. So I would
- 35:46Speaker 1: be shocked as hell to see Brian Kohlberger not PC up.
- 35:49Speaker 1: But who knows what's going to happen. We have a
- 35:51Speaker 1: long way to go before we get to that point,
- 35:53Speaker 1: and we have to get through the trial phase first.
- 35:56Speaker 1: But we'll be here the whole entire way as the
- 35:59Speaker 1: story continues to evolve. All right, folks, that's going to
- 36:02Speaker 1: do it for this one. All of the information that
- 36:05Speaker 1: goes with the episode can be found in the description box. Everyone,
- 36:09Speaker 1: and welcome back to the program. Daily Mail has an
- 36:14Speaker 1: article out talking about Brian Koberger's time in jail. And
- 36:19Speaker 1: according to them, they have a source who was an
- 36:22Speaker 1: inmate at the jail that Brian Koberger is currently residing in.
- 36:27Speaker 1: So let's dive into this article from Daily Mail and
- 36:30Speaker 1: let's see what they came up with. Headline, searing new
- 36:35Speaker 1: insights into Brian Koberger's jail life as told to DailyMail.com
- 36:40Speaker 1: by his fellow inmates. He obsesses over TV coverage of
- 36:44Speaker 1: his own case, has turned to God and faces constant taunts,
- 36:48Speaker 1: from other prisoners. Well, he better get used to that.
- 36:52Speaker 1: Anytime you're somebody of notoriety and you're in jail, there's
- 36:56Speaker 1: going to be other prisoners who are looking to build
- 36:59Speaker 1: a name off of busting your shit. I mean, we
- 37:02Speaker 1: saw John Gotti get beat up in jail. We saw
- 37:05Speaker 1: Jared Fogle catch a hot one.
- 37:07Speaker 2: You name it.
- 37:08Speaker 1: So when you're in jail and you have some notoriety,
- 37:11Speaker 1: there's always that chance that one of the other inmates
- 37:14Speaker 1: is going to try and build his name up and
- 37:16Speaker 1: bust you up. And when you're somebody like Kohlberger, that increases.
- 37:21Speaker 1: People take a look at what's going on, and you
- 37:24Speaker 1: got to remember, these people in jail, they have families,
- 37:27Speaker 1: they have daughters, so they watch the news, they see
- 37:31Speaker 1: the coverage, and if they get their hands on Brian Kohlberger,
- 37:34Speaker 1: it'll be a wrap for them. And them pointing out
- 37:38Speaker 1: that he obsesses over the TV coverage of his own case,
- 37:41Speaker 1: that certainly tracks. I've always thought that Kohlberger was watching
- 37:45Speaker 1: the case, following it, and getting off on the coverage.
- 37:48Speaker 1: And I'm sure that hasn't abated now that he's behind bars.
- 37:53Speaker 1: This article was authored by Sean Cohen. Brian Koberger is
- 37:59Speaker 1: obsessed with following his own case from behind bars and
- 38:02Speaker 1: has now found God, attending Mass every Sunday, sources said.
- 38:06Speaker 1: Now why is it that it takes these people to
- 38:08Speaker 1: go to jail, the fine God? Don't you think that
- 38:12Speaker 1: with all of your free time, When you're in the
- 38:14Speaker 1: free world, if you wanted to find God, you would
- 38:16Speaker 1: have found God. It always cracks me up when I
- 38:19Speaker 1: hear this. Oh, so-and-so, he's religious now.
- 38:22Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, sure. Is that before or after?
- 38:25Speaker 1: He brutally murdered four people in their bed. Give me
- 38:28Speaker 1: a break. He found God. Dailymail.com spoke with current and
- 38:32Speaker 1: former inmates, as well as jail sources, to discuss Koberger's
- 38:36Speaker 1: time at the jail. Among the revelations are that Koberger
- 38:40Speaker 1: gets daytime access to a television, and likes to flip
- 38:43Speaker 1: on the news to follow coverage of his own case.
- 38:47Speaker 1: Narcissism 101. This guy's getting off on the coverage, he's
- 38:51Speaker 1: getting off on the fact that everybody's following it, and
- 38:54Speaker 1: that's exactly what he wanted. He wanted his time in
- 38:57Speaker 1: the sun, right? I want my time to shine. Just
- 39:00Speaker 1: like the rest of these sick bastards. I mean, look
- 39:03Speaker 1: at BTK. He's living vicariously through Brian Kohlberger right now,
- 39:07Speaker 1: and getting off while it all happens. And that's why
- 39:10Speaker 1: I said earlier in an episode about these people who
- 39:13Speaker 1: just get the death sentence and then sit on death row.
- 39:17Speaker 1: If we're not going to go through with the death sentence,
- 39:19Speaker 1: then let's build new facilities and let's put all of
- 39:22Speaker 1: these scumbags in these facilities. But instead we let them
- 39:26Speaker 1: sit on death row and have these fan clubs and shit.
- 39:30Speaker 1: it's all bizarre to me he watches himself all the
- 39:33Speaker 1: time one inmate told dailymail.com it's really kind of bizarre
- 39:38Speaker 1: not if you're a narcissist it's not If you're a narcissist,
- 39:42Speaker 1: this is normal behavior. Watching yourself on TV, what could
- 39:46Speaker 1: be a bigger shot of adrenaline in the arm for
- 39:49Speaker 1: a narcissist? The accused quadruple murderer, who has been locked
- 39:53Speaker 1: up without bail at the Latah County Jail since early January,
- 39:57Speaker 1: steps out of his cell at around 7 p.m. on
- 40:00Speaker 1: Sundays to meet with a local pastor who leads him
- 40:03Speaker 1: in prayer. He sits down with the pastor and receives
- 40:06Speaker 1: his own private mass. A source inside the jail said,
- 40:10Speaker 1: It's just the two of them. And no, I have
- 40:12Speaker 1: no idea what they might talk about. Oh, that's nice, huh?
- 40:16Speaker 1: Brian Kohlberger gets himself a nice one-on-one with the pastor. Now, look,
- 40:20Speaker 1: I get it. The dude's innocent until proven guilty. I
- 40:23Speaker 1: understand that. And he should have all of the benefits
- 40:27Speaker 1: that anyone who is locked up has until he's found guilty.
- 40:31Speaker 1: Once he's found guilty, then I believe that the nature
- 40:34Speaker 1: of his sentence should be very, very restrictive. especially in
- 40:39Speaker 1: a state like Idaho, where they have the death penalty.
- 40:42Speaker 1: And remember, I'm basing that all on the fact that
- 40:44Speaker 1: the people of Idaho have decided that the death penalty
- 40:48Speaker 1: is right for their state. So it doesn't matter what
- 40:50Speaker 1: I think living in Nevada, right? It's up to the
- 40:52Speaker 1: people of Idaho. But if you're not going to follow
- 40:55Speaker 1: through and carry out the death sentence, then it seems
- 40:58Speaker 1: to me that the smart way to go about it
- 41:01Speaker 1: would be directing some resources to build new facilities in
- 41:05Speaker 1: And put all of these dirtbags who get the death
- 41:08Speaker 1: penalty into these facilities where they can just sit in
- 41:11Speaker 1: their cells. People convicted of quadruple homicides and serial killings,
- 41:16Speaker 1: they shouldn't have the ability to get emails from adoring
- 41:20Speaker 1: fans from the outside world. They should be able to
- 41:23Speaker 1: get emails from, you know, family or people close to them.
- 41:26Speaker 1: But as far as adoring fans, zero chance. By all accounts,
- 41:33Speaker 1: the 28-year-old has been a model prisoner, a jail official
- 41:36Speaker 1: tells DeliML.com. This despite facing taunts from inmates who sometimes
- 41:42Speaker 1: shout at him as he shuffles past their cells. One
- 41:45Speaker 1: inmate named Tyson hollered bitch at the accused murderer during
- 41:49Speaker 1: a recent weekday. Kohlberger barely flinched, turning toward him with
- 41:54Speaker 1: a menacing stare without breaking stride as he proceeded down
- 41:57Speaker 1: the hall. According to one inmate who watched it happen. Oh,
- 42:01Speaker 1: real tough guy. I'm going to stare at you. Well,
- 42:04Speaker 1: guess what, Brian Koberger? You won't have the benefit of
- 42:07Speaker 1: sneaking into my house and attacking me while I sleep.
- 42:11Speaker 1: So keep staring and watch how quick your bitch card
- 42:13Speaker 1: gets pulled. You're in jail now, homie. Whole new ballgame.
- 42:18Speaker 1: And you're going to learn the hierarchy real quick. And
- 42:20Speaker 1: breaking news, bub, you're not at the top of the
- 42:23Speaker 1: food chain. He always has the same expression or non-expression.
- 42:28Speaker 1: said one inmate who met with a DailyMail.com reporter in
- 42:32Speaker 1: the jail. He just looks straight ahead. I've never seen
- 42:35Speaker 1: his eyebrows or mouth move. He never says anything. Kohlberger
- 42:40Speaker 1: spends most of his time alone in a private cell,
- 42:43Speaker 1: kept apart from other inmates who share cells. There's no
- 42:46Speaker 1: doubt that he has to be kept apart. You can't
- 42:49Speaker 1: put a guy like this on the main line.
- 42:51Speaker 2: There's no way.
- 42:53Speaker 1: Like I said earlier, even if people aren't mad about
- 42:56Speaker 1: the actual crimes he committed, They're going to look for notoriety,
- 43:00Speaker 1: and to do that, killing or beating up somebody like
- 43:03Speaker 1: Brian Koberger is a surefire way to make sure everybody
- 43:07Speaker 1: in the prison system knows your name. He rarely, if ever,
- 43:13Speaker 1: chats with jailmates, who typically only see him when he
- 43:16Speaker 1: walks past them. They say he maintains a steely stare
- 43:20Speaker 1: when he steps out to meet his lawyers or to
- 43:22Speaker 1: visit the library. and that he's always flanked by several
- 43:25Speaker 1: correction officers who escort him everywhere he goes. Hell, maybe
- 43:30Speaker 1: we should have put Jeffrey Epstein's bitch ass in jail
- 43:32Speaker 1: in Idaho. They would have done a better job watching him,
- 43:35Speaker 1: it looks like. The jail houses a couple dozen inmates
- 43:39Speaker 1: in a sprawling basement directly underneath the Latah County Courthouse
- 43:43Speaker 1: and Sheriff's Office near downtown Moscow. Opaque windows to some
- 43:48Speaker 1: of the cells face a quiet side street. located just 1.4
- 43:52Speaker 1: miles from the rental home where the four University of
- 43:55Speaker 1: Idaho students were slaughtered during the pre-dawn hours of November 13th.
- 44:01Speaker 2: Police arrested Koberger, a Ph.D.
- 44:03Speaker 1: Student in criminology, at nearby Washington State University in Pullman
- 44:07Speaker 1: on December 30th. He's been held without bail in the
- 44:11Speaker 1: Moscow jail since January 4th, pending his next court hearing
- 44:15Speaker 1: on June 26th. The case could get him the death penalty.
- 44:21Speaker 1: I hope he gets the death penalty, inmate Harrison Papillon said.
- 44:24Speaker 2: I'd be shocked if he didn't.
- 44:26Speaker 1: Leyta jail officials remain tight-lipped about Koberger's time behind bars.
- 44:31Speaker 1: One official told DailyMail.com that Koberger's been well-behaved during his
- 44:36Speaker 1: time there with no incidents. The official also pointed out
- 44:40Speaker 1: that Koberger's strict vegan dietary needs are being met by
- 44:44Speaker 1: the vendor that prepares meals for the prisoners.
- 44:47Speaker 2: Must be nice, huh?
- 44:48Speaker 1: So if I ever go to prison, does that mean
- 44:50Speaker 1: that I have a constant supply of chicken parmesan? That's
- 44:55Speaker 1: my dietary need. I need to have that five times
- 44:58Speaker 1: a week. So if I don't have that five times
- 45:00Speaker 1: a week, I'm suing you. This is pretty absurd. What
- 45:03Speaker 1: does that even mean? His strict vegan diets are being met. Bro,
- 45:07Speaker 1: here's a banana. Here's some Cheerios.
- 45:09Speaker 2: Shut your yap. But despite his quiet.
- 45:13Speaker 1: Demeanor, inmates say they're well aware of the gruesome crime
- 45:16Speaker 1: he's accused of carrying out. They follow the case intently
- 45:20Speaker 1: on the news and discuss their infamous fellow inmate daily.
- 45:24Speaker 1: I've been reading about the whole case since it started
- 45:27Speaker 1: and knew he was in there, said recently released inmate
- 45:30Speaker 1: Kyle Lettett. It's disturbing that something like that can happen
- 45:34Speaker 1: in my hometown. I'm just happy I wasn't in the
- 45:36Speaker 1: same cell as his. I've only seen him a few times,
- 45:40Speaker 1: he added. He was wearing orange sweats and an orange t-shirt,
- 45:44Speaker 1: with two guards accompanying him wherever he needs to go.
- 45:48Speaker 1: Let it describe the jail as cold and disgusting. Hang
- 45:53Speaker 1: on a minute here, a jail that's cold and disgusting?
- 45:56Speaker 1: I thought jail was supposed to be like the Four Seasons.
- 46:00Speaker 1: He shared a cell with five people who get access
- 46:03Speaker 1: to an adjoining day room where they.
- 46:05Speaker 2: Could watch TV, eat, shower, and talk.
- 46:08Speaker 1: We'd always talk about the fact that he was in
- 46:11Speaker 1: the jail with us, let it told DailyMail.com.
- 46:14Speaker 2: Nobody liked the guy, I could tell you that. There's
- 46:16Speaker 2: a lot of hatred, but we were in all of them.
- 46:19Speaker 1: Nothing like that really happens around Moscow. It shocked a
- 46:22Speaker 1: lot of people. Papillon said he's tried to get intel
- 46:25Speaker 1: about Koberger's time in jail, but that the officers there
- 46:28Speaker 1: don't share much of anything. He's only about 30 feet
- 46:32Speaker 1: from my cell, he said.
- 46:33Speaker 2: It's truly crazy.
- 46:34Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm in here with one of the
- 46:36Speaker 1: most infamous... alleged mass murderers in the United States. And
- 46:41Speaker 1: for a town like Moscow, where most of those people
- 46:44Speaker 1: are in jail for, you know, petty assault or possession
- 46:47Speaker 1: of drugs, something like that, this is definitely out of
- 46:50Speaker 1: character and out of the normal for what goes on
- 46:54Speaker 1: in Latah County. It's not like they're in Los Angeles
- 46:57Speaker 1: and they bring in Richard Ramirez. You know, gangbangers and shit,
- 47:01Speaker 1: they shrug their shoulders and keep it moving. You're in
- 47:05Speaker 1: Idaho here. And there's never been something like this ever
- 47:08Speaker 1: in the history of the state to happen. So, of course,
- 47:12Speaker 1: the inmates who are sharing jail time with this dude
- 47:15Speaker 1: are following along with what's going on.
- 47:18Speaker 2: But once he leaves.
- 47:19Speaker 1: The lockup and actually ends up in the penitentiary, if
- 47:23Speaker 1: he's found guilty, things are going to get a lot
- 47:25Speaker 1: more dangerous and interesting for Brian Koberger. All right, folks,
- 47:30Speaker 1: that's going to do it for this one. All of
- 47:32Speaker 1: the information that goes with the episode can be found
- 47:35Speaker 1: in the description box.
