Idaho Four killer Bryan Kohberger shares a common trait with late murderer Jeffrey Dahmer – something that could potentially land him in trouble as he serves out a life sentence in prison, a former prison minister has claimed.
“His biggest weakness in prison is going to be the same thing as Jeffrey Dahmer’s biggest weakness in prison, getting on other inmates’ nerves because they’re weird,” Keith Rovere explained, per Fox News Digital.
He claimed that Dahmer was killed behind bars “not because of his notoriety or fame,” but because he kept “freaking other inmates out by pretending to eat body parts.”
The convicted killer – also known as the Milwaukee Cannibal – was given 15 life sentences without the possibility of parole for the slayings of 17 people. His other charges included second-degree sexual assault and disorderly conduct. He was infamously murdered by fellow prisoner Christopher Scarver – who was also serving a life sentence – at the Columbia Correctional Institution in Portage, Wisconsin on Nov. 28, 1994.

Seth Ferranti, a former wanted fugitive, also suggested that Kohberger, 30, would have a “target on his back” in prison.
“Child molesters, rapists and woman beaters get smashed, and he’ll be stereotyped like that,” he explained, according to Fox News Digital. “Depends on the security level he’s at or if he’s in a protection unit.”
“Some dudes will talk to the new guy, some dudes won’t. Some will press him or extort him or offer him some type of friendship or protection,” he continued. “The hype will fade though, and he’ll just become a normal inmate, or he’ll get punished in time.”
Kohberger has become known for his silence and his blank stare through his murder case – something that Ferranti warned he shouldn’t do behind bars.

“He doesn’t want to stare at anybody in prison, and if he’s getting frail, that will just mark him as weak and an easy target,” he said. “I’ve seen dudes strung out, turned out, court chaos, catch new cases, get killed, get shipped out. Anything can happen in prison, it will make you or break you.”
As the National Enquirer previously reported, Kohberger pleaded guilty to the murders of Madison Mogen, 21, Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Ethan Chapin, 20, more than two years after they were killed in their Idaho home on November 13, 2022.
He was subsequently ordered to serve four consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.
