In Season Two of her true crime series, The God Hook, journalist Carol Costello investigates the complex case of the Ohio Craigslist Killings—and in doing so, unearths the untold story of the crimes that preceded the murders—and the victims who’ve never received justice. Richard Beasley was convicted of murdering three men and attempting to kill a fourth in the fall of 2011, but before that heinous spree, authorities were building a human trafficking case against him.

Why did Bryan Kohberger suddenly plead guilty after nearly two years of pretrial warfare? The answer might be more personal—and more psychological—than legal.
In this breakdown, we explore how the revelation that Kohberger’s sister, Amanda, was on the prosecution’s witness list may have triggered a collapse in his carefully controlled defense. For a man driven by dominance, image, and manipulation, the prospect of family testifying against him may have cut deeper than any courtroom battle.
We unpack:
• The timeline between Amanda being listed and Kohberger's plea
• What his control-obsessed behavior says about the psychology of his decision
• How avoiding a trial may have spared his family—and preserved his own narcissistic narrative
• The legal pressures: failed suppression motions, damning DNA rulings, and an inevitable death penalty trial
• The psychology of narcissistic collapse and what it looks like when the mask slips
Was it guilt, fear, or one last act of ego-driven control disguised as mercy? This is the deeper story behind Kohberger’s plea—and what it says about him.
