About this listen
Some moments don’t become exhibits, but they do become explanations. In this cut of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examine a cluster of late-surfacing interactions tied to Bryan Kohberger: a Pullman hotel desk confrontation over a billing error that switched—almost instantly—into charm and small talk, followed by a hallway conversation about knives and sheaths the next day. Add neighbors who recall tapping on windows and campus reports that flagged boundary-crossing behavior, and you get a picture of social control plays—testing, calibrating, seeing what people will tolerate.
We unpack why hot-cold shifts matter in offender assessment; how casual “weapon talk” in intimate or dim settings reads as preoccupation rather than personality; and what professionals look for to tell bravado from behavioral red flags. We also tackle the community question: what do we do with soft warnings? Creepy isn’t a crime, but patterns can be documented. Jennifer explains how to record, report, and escalate concerns in ways that respect due process while preventing patterns from hiding in plain sight.
This isn’t about rewriting facts after the outcome; it’s about literacy—helping the public distinguish awkward from coercive, charm from manipulation, edgy from alarming. Individually, none of these anecdotes is decisive. Together, they trace an arc: grievance, impression management, and obsession leaking into everyday encounters. If you’ve ever wondered whether those “weird little moments” matter, this conversation shows how they inform the long-term record—responsibly, without sensationalism.
