  • πŸŽ“ Kohberger faced academic trouble as a teaching assistant at Washington State University, with students complaining about his behavior, leading to an ultimatum just days before the murders.
  • 🎯 A new theory suggests Kohberger may have been fixated on a single victim, Maddie Mogen, rather than casing the house extensively.
  • πŸ”ͺ The prosecution's case faces challenges, including the lack of recovered murder weapon and the differing descriptions of the victims' wounds in the coroner's report.

America's Spiritual Crisis
