Bryan Kohberger: How We Got Here - Episode 4: "Digital Breadcrumbs and Desperate Searches"
Description: December 2022 marked the turning point in the investigation as cutting-edge genetic genealogy worked behind the scenes while investigators made a crucial public appeal for information about a white Hyundai Elantra. This episode reveals how investigators used advanced cell phone tower analysis to identify patterns of surveillance, discovering that a suspect's phone had connected to towers near the victims' house 12 times over several months, always during nighttime hours. We explore the complex world of investigative genetic genealogy, the same technology used to solve the Golden State Killer case, and how it works by comparing crime scene DNA to genetic profiles voluntarily uploaded to genealogy websites. The episode details the massive search for white Hyundai Elantras across the Pacific Northwest, involving potentially 22,000 vehicles that needed investigation. We also examine how Bryan Kohberger was going about his normal life as a criminology PhD student just eight miles away, unaware that his vehicle had been identified by a WSU police officer during routine patrol, and how his phone mysteriously went silent during the exact time window when the murders occurred.
