"But it is beginning to appear that, like Elliot Rodger and others--including serial killer Ted Bundy, who in 1978 brutally attacked four college girls, killing two, at the Chi Omega sorority house in Tallahassee, Florida--Kohberger had a big problem with women. He reportedly had been bullied or teased by peers, especially popular females, in middle school for being morbidly obese, and, as a consequence, may have harbored intense feelings of resentment, anger or rage toward those whom he felt tortured him so cruelly."
"Or could Kohberger--who, unlike Bundy, is not a serial killer but rather a multiple murderer--have been infatuated with one or more of the young women he killed? Could he have stalked and, with malice and forethought, targeted his victim/victims in advance of the killings? There are some indications that he did. Interestingly, his crime and choice of weapon, a fixed blade knife, is eerily similar to O.J. Simpson's double murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman."
Kohberger's mental health history remains largely unknown beyond a reported stint in rehab for heroin dependence. No confirmed diagnoses of Asperger's, autism, OCD, PTSD, psychosis, or other psychiatric conditions are established. Past bullying and teasing, especially by popular females in middle school for morbid obesity, may have fostered intense resentment, anger, or rage toward women. Possible motives include vicarious vengeance against young attractive women or infatuation with one or more victims, with indications of stalking and premeditation. The murders exhibit overkill and involved a fixed-blade knife that was never subsequently found.
