What Is Not Verified or Is Disputed / Rumor

Here are claims that are circulating but either not supported by reliable documentation (as of the latest releases) or remain unverified:

  • Allegation that a professor warned the university explicitly that Kohberger would become a murderer — There are warnings about possible future predatory behavior, but saying “a murderer” is a much stronger claim than documented. The evidence shows faculty feared stalking, harassment, or abuse, but not that someone officially said he would kill.
  • There is no evidence of police reports whatsoever by anyone making allegations against Bryan Kohberger for stalking, harassing, sexually harassing, or anything else, from Pullman, Moscow, or Pennsylvania.
  • There are documents reporting some allegations made within the WSU , but nothing specific to harassment, stalking, sexual harassment, violence, other than complaints about him staring in certain ways. talking in certain ways, and one report that he has allegedly followed a professor to her car, on one occasion, which could be how the individual has interpreted his action, and there was no harm done to her.

Why These Claims Have Grown & How They’re Used

  • Because of the severity of the murders, people reading the police documents interpreted warnings of “sexist / predatory behavior” as red flags that could have predicted violent crime. Some content creators and commentators have taken things further, suggesting that the university or faculty should have seen or acted upon these warnings earlier.
  • Discussions of alibi or lack thereof, combined with behavior reports, feed into audience speculation that he was “obviously guilty” earlier than the court found. This can lead to strong statements on social media or in YouTube/TikTok videos, sometimes beyond what is documented.

What This Means After the Guilty Plea of Bryan Kohberger

Since Kohberger pleaded guilty (July 2025):

  • Some of these faculty observations are being revisited: people say, “Look, these were red flags.” Others caution that hindsight is always clearer.
  • Dr. Ramsland (DeSales) has publicized her shock that someone who appeared so academically capable could commit such acts — she has said she was fooled.
  • The fact of the plea doesn’t necessarily validate all speculations (e.g. predictions that he would kill). What’s certain now is that he is guilty in court, but motives, how earlier behavior relates to what happened, and whether institutional warnings were sufficient are still matters of debate.
