In an odd and creepy twist, Bryan Kohberger uses his phone to take selfies he never shares with anyone. The selfie photo shoot takes place inside his Washington State University apartment, standing in front of a closet filled with blue shirts. Shirtless and wearing earbuds, the cowardly killer flexes, poses, and makes a contorted face with an angry grin, showing off his yellow teeth, and at one point he salutes the camera, revealing a cut to the knuckle on the ring finger of his left hand that may have come from his murderous rampage in Moscow.

We also learn as investigators met with classmates, professors, and other university staff, they described Kohberger as creepy and domineering, with one classmate saying Kohberger would be the type of professor who would harass and stalk students. The interviews included individuals from all aspects of college campus life, from classrooms, offices, and hangout spots, and in each case the same result: Kohberger’s mere presence was enough to set people on edge.

When Kohberger shows a “keen interest” in an undergraduate assistant, a WSU faculty member keeps a close watch. She witnesses the future killer standing at her assistant’s desk, directly behind her, looking over her shoulder as she works. Because of Kohberger’s behavior, another professor is asked to escort the assistant to her car after work.

In a class where Kohberger is the teaching assistant, a female student says whenever she looks up, he is staring at her. He rarely speaks to students, but the co-ed says no matter when she would leave the class, he would time his exit to leave when she did and then follow her to her car. Another graduate student says she caught Kohberger “aggressively” staring at her 9 times in one class and followed her after class. She says he always seemed to want to be in “the general area of her and others in the program that didn’t want anything to do with him”....

One female student targeted by Kohberger says the killer trailed her after class and would block her path when she tried to leave conversations with him, and he would stare at her with such intensity and regularity that she began keeping a count of the encounters.It's a pattern that seemed to repeat itself with the murder victims.

Now, newly discovered essays written by Kohberger reveal his plan to get out of jail.
