 Bryan Kohberger is reportedly telling prison staff he’ll “harm himself” if they don’t move him out of J-Block — and the wording of that threat is raising eyebrows. Not “end his life.” Not “I’m in crisis.” The phrase is specific, conditional, and attached to a demand. And in corrections psychology, that distinction matters.

Today on Hidden Killers, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to break down what this behavior actually signals. Is Kohberger genuinely overwhelmed inside Idaho’s most restrictive housing unit? Or is this a strategic form of pressure meant to regain a sense of control he no longer has?

From Day 2, Kohberger began testing the system — complaining about food, noise, harassment, and ultimately escalating to self-harm threats when lower-level grievances didn’t get traction. Shavaun explains what this escalation pattern typically indicates: a person accustomed to getting results through pressure, resistance, or emotional leverage.

But even with concerns about manipulation, prison staff are doing exactly what protocol requires — removing ligature risks, tightening supervision, documenting behavior. Shavaun walks us through why institutions must treat every threat seriously, even when the individual making it has a history of calculated behavior.

We also explore the psychological payoff of using self-harm threats as leverage. Even if he doesn’t get transferred, Kohberger may still gain exactly what he wants: attention, disruption, and power over the environment. For someone who built an identity around control, that’s currency.

This conversation offers a rare look into the psychological realities behind bars — and why a threat doesn’t always mean what it appears to mean on the surface.
