Bryan Kohberger Turned Away From Costco Hours After Idaho Murders, on Video

In what can only be described as a surreal twist of fate, a Costco membership checker confronted Bryan Kohberger and lived to recount the story. Newly released footage shows a woman decisively ejecting the quadruple-murderer from the well-known wholesale retailer.

Recent video footage dated November 13, 2022—just hours after Kohberger savagely killed Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin —captures the confessed killer casually strolling into a Costco in Clarkston, Washington, as though he were an ordinary shopper.

As Kohberger approaches the greeter, he nods, exuding an air of confidence—only to be halted as she requests proof of membership. Her firm response signals that Kohberger must leave if he cannot produce it.

Despite his attempts to sweet-talk his way into the store, the greeter stands her ground, ultimately sending him away. A stunning example of the mundane world clashing with unfathomable horror.

Following his eviction from Costco, Kohberger is seen driving off in a white vehicle headed toward an Albertsons grocery store. There, he appears almost to embrace ordinariness, shopping and apparently making a purchase at the self-checkout.

What makes this even more chilling is the fact that, just prior to this mundane outing, Kohberger had committed atrocities nearly 30 miles away at a home close to the University of Idaho. Watching him carry on with life after such horrific actions blurs lines between the profound and the absurd.

Kohberger has pleaded guilty to all four murders as of July and has been sentenced to four consecutive life sentences, expertly sidestepping the death penalty.

Life behind bars isn’t proving to be the serene sojourn one might imagine; Kohberger recently filed a sexual harassment complaint from his cell, as if the prison experience could not be further dramatized. He has also been diagnosed with autism level 1, along with OCD, ADHD, and ARFID, an eating disorder.
