The first acquaintance in question, who said he met Kohberger a handful of times in places like a bbq or a holiday party, suggested that police talk to some more people in the university about complaints made about the Idaho killer's 'rudeness and unprofessional behavior toward other students and college professors.' As many as nine complaints were made about him.

However, Kohberger soon started to seem really 'creepy,' the woman said, as reported by the New York Post. She said he would 'simply stand at her desk and stare at her or her co-worker – at one stage blocking the co-worker in her desk area.' She said that Kohberger would even follow the women to their cars, leaving them with no option but to pre-arrange an escort so they did not have to face him alone.
The complaints against Kohberger were for 'rude and belittling behavior toward women,' which led to him being made to take a mandatory training class about 'behavior expectations.' Witnesses said he 'sat at the back with his hands behind his head staring at the ceiling' during the class.
Kohberger is now serving life in prison for the 2022 murders of University of Idaho students Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves. He stabbed the students to death in the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, at a rental home near their campus in Moscow, Idaho.

Trump announced $50 mn bounty for his arrest. Now, Maduro responds with 4.5 mn militia and armed peasants

Venezuelan President Maduro has ordered nationwide militia activation after the US doubled bounty for his arrest and intensified anti-drug operations in the Caribbean Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro speaks as he presents a proposal to reform the constitution in a session of the National Assembly in Caracas, Venezuela on February 15, 2025. Reuters File Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has announced that he will deploy 4.5 million members of the country's civilian militia, citing what he called renewed threats from the United States. The move comes after Washington increased the bounty for Maduro's arrest and launched new anti-drug operations in the Caribbean — actions Caracas has condemned as hostile and provocative. 'This week, I will activate a special plan with more than 4.5 million militiamen to ensure coverage of the entire national territory - militias that are prepared, activated and armed,' Maduro announced on state television. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The militia, originally established by former President Hugo Chávez, is officially reported to number around five million members, although independent estimates suggest the actual figure is significantly lower, reported Times of India. Venezuela's total population stands at approximately 30 million. In a televised address, President Maduro condemned what he described as 'the renewal of extravagant, bizarre, and outlandish threats' from the US, following a series of moves by Washington that have further strained bilateral relations. Earlier this month, President Trump's administration doubled the reward for Maduro's capture to $50 million. The Venezuelan leader faces drug trafficking charges in the United States, where officials accuse him of heading the so-called Cartel de los Sole_s_, a criminal network allegedly responsible for large-scale cocaine smuggling. In addition to increasing the bounty, the Trump administration imposed fresh sanctions on both the cartel and the Venezuelan government. The US military has also reportedly deployed several naval vessels to the southern Caribbean as part of its broader anti-narcotics campaign in the region. 'We are also deployed throughout the Caribbean… in our sea, our property, Venezuelan territory,' Times of India quoted Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello as saying. Although he did not explicitly mention the recent actions by the United States, President Maduro expressed gratitude to Venezuela's international allies for standing with the country against what he described as a 'rotten refrain' of ongoing threats. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Maduro also called for the expansion of worker and peasant militias across all sectors of the economy, urging broader participation in what he framed as a national defence effort. 'Rifles and missiles for the peasant force! To defend the territory, sovereignty, and peace of Venezuela,' declared Maduro. With inputs from agencies
