Bryan Kohberger was sentenced to four consecutive life sentences yesterday for the murders of University of Idaho students, Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin.

Kohberger, a former criminology student at neighboring Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, just over the state line. It doesn’t take long for someone to look at this guy and see there is something fundamentally wrong with him. It’s all in the eyes. Hell, even his fellow inmates think he’s off.

Bryan Kohberger fatally stabbed all four of these young people with a Ka-Bar. He entered a plea and was granted this plea, escaping death from a firing squad in the state of Idaho. When asked by the judge if he cared to make a statement to all of the families impacted by his heinous and gruesome acts, he said three words:

I respectfully decline.”-Bryan Kohberger

Respectfully? I’m sorry but, in all honesty, Mr. Kohberger showed no respect whatsoever for the human lives he ended and the lives he destroyed that were sitting in that courtroom. Now, he gets the dignity and respect of living out his years in a cell, with three meals a day?

Presiding Judge, Steven Hiller, called him the “worst of the worst”. He’s not wrong. The families all made their statements to the killer.

If you get sentenced to life in prison four times over for slaughtering four innocent people, but still get your haircut to look good for court, you might be a narcissistic, simple minded, psychopath.

Worst of the worst.

The families of the deceased all made their statements, but, Kaylee Goncalves’ sister, Alivia, deserves to conduct a master class. This is worth a listen.

They are everything that you could never be. Loved, accepted, vibrant, accomplished, brave and powerful. In a world that rejected you, they would have shown mercy.

I won’t stand here and give you what you want. I won’t offer you tears, I won’t offer you trembling. Disappointments like you thrive on pain, on fear and on the illusion of power and I won’t feed your beast. Instead, I will call you what your are: a sociopath, psychopath, murderer. I will ask the questions that reverberate violently in my own head do loudly that I can’t think straight most any day. Some of these might be familiar, so sit up straight when I talk to you…”-Alivia Goncalves

Yep. She told him to “sit up straight”.

If you were really smart, do you think you’d be here right now? You’re a delusional, pathetic, hypochondriac, loser, who thought you were so much smarter than everybody else. Constantly scolding, turning your nose up to grammar mistakes, nitpicking and criticizing others. You wanted so badly to be different, to be special, to be deep, mysterious. You found yourself thinking you were better than everyone else. Lurking in the shadows made you feel powerful because no one ever paid you any attention in the light. You thought you were exceptional, all because a grade on a paper.

You act like no one could understand your mind, but the truth is, you’re basic. You are not profound. You’re pathetic. No one is scared of you today. No one is intimidated by you, no one is impressed by you. No one thinks that you are important.”-Alivia Goncalves

Of course, Rolling Stone sympathized with this pseudo-intellectual moron back in April. Surprised they did not put him on a sexy cover Ala Boston Bomber. Oh, he has Autism! Please. Most people who have autism do not go out and murder four people after stargazing at the night sky in the Palouse. Bryan Kohnberger is a weirdo-creep. Plain and simple. And, a pretentious, pseudo-intellectual one at that-autism or no autism. It, personally, made me so happy Alivia Goncalves went after his intellect so hard. People like Bryan Kohberger hate this.

The truth is, you’re as dumb as they come. Stupid, clumsy, slow, sloppy, weak, dirty. You want the truth? Here’s the one you’ll hate the most. If you hadn’t attacked them in their sleep, in the middle of the night, like a pedophile, Kaylee would have kicked your F-cking ass.”-Alivia Goncalves

As a parent who is getting ready to move my son, once again for another year, into an apartment near a college campus, this gives me chills. My heart and prayers go out to these families. There is a special place in hell for the likes of Bryan Kohberger. There’s a shank with his name on it, somewhere.

Sit up straight, it’s coming. But even that fate is too merciful for this piece of human excrement. Hug your kids extra tight today. I know I will.
