Bryan Kohberger, the killer who murdered four University of Idaho students in 2022, met with a Washington State DMV worker shortly after the murders. The worker mentioned how much safer the area was compared to her native San Francisco, before unknowingly mentioning the murders to the killer. Kohberger made small talk with the worker about baseball and their shared love for the sport. He also shared his Yankees fandom and claimed that his mother was from Brooklyn. Despite being asked if he would stay in the area after graduation, Kohberger said he would move to wherever his work led him.
