New Book Reveals Near-Misses in Pursuit of Idaho Murder Suspect Bryan Kohberger

Author Howard Blum details the FBI's challenges and Kohberger's possible fixation on a single victim.

  • Blum's book outlines the FBI's 'hatbox operation' and its near-failures in tracking Kohberger.
  • The suspect's father accompanied him on a cross-country drive, complicating the FBI's surveillance.
  • Kohberger was stopped twice by Indiana police for traffic violations during the journey.
  • DNA evidence from Kohberger's father's trash was pivotal in linking him to the crime scene.
  • Blum suggests Kohberger specifically targeted Madison Mogen among the four victims.
