  1. Really dislike all this speculation. The guy is innocent till proven guilty. And yet, no one seems to be cognizant of that fact... or maybe they just plain don't want to. Because speculating about the murderer and his motives/actions/behavior maybe helps them try to make sense of this senseless murder spree and tragic taking of four beautiful lives.😢 (& ruination of many other lives). Case in point... Steve Gonsalves comments about how Kohberger's having an unusual interest in the criminal mind, interviewing and surveying criminals the way he was...how unusual and 'not right' this was. Well, actually this isn't unusual for a PhD student in this field of study, at all. Let's remember, Kohberger is a Criminology PhD Student... this 'criminal mind' questionnaire was an outpicturing of his thesis - and was sanctioned by univ. faculty. Kohberger's professor/mentor there (who btw has stated she believes he is innocent) -has said this was his thesis, and although it may seem weird and somehow 'wrong' by laypeople, it's a common branch of criminology study. And for a PhD. student to design this type of survey for their thesis is not at all unusual. That said, I am not trying to defend Kohberger. I have no opinion as to whether he killed these precious kids, or not. I feel overwhelming compassion for the senseless, tragic loss of Kaylee, Maddie, Ethan and Xana. Last night, I watched these kids parents, friends, siblings & extended family members speaking at their memorial service - it was truly heartbreaking 💔. I came away in tears and disbelief as to how they could even speak (or function) at that point. It takes alot of courage to get up there and speak for your lost child at their memorial 💔 I'm still reeling, and I don't think I'll ever forget these kids or their families speaking at their group memorial. I just wish people would stop with all this speculation about Kohberger in the press, on SM & newscast shows. Some of them are saying the stupidest things. If he is found guilty by a jury, it seems to me it will be a cake walk for his atty to get him off just by virtue of the fact he was 'found guilty' by the press & the public before the preliminary hearing!
