Mega Edition: Bryan Kohberger And The Instagram Rumors (8/4/26)

Rumors circulated after Bryan Kohberger’s arrest that he had followed victims Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen on Instagram before the murders. Kaylee’s parents said they had located an account they believed belonged to Kohberger and claimed it had followed both women and repeatedly liked photographs on Mogen’s page. Other reports alleged that Kohberger had sent direct messages to one of the victims, but those claims relied on anonymous sourcing, and CBS’s 48 Hours was unable to independently authenticate the Instagram account the family had identified.

The allegations were never substantiated by the official investigation. After examining Kohberger’s phones, online accounts and other digital records, investigators said they had found no photographs, messages or verified social-media connections linking him to any of the four victims. The Instagram narrative therefore remained an unconfirmed rumor rather than established evidence, illustrating how speculation about Kohberger supposedly stalking the victims online had spread faster than the facts available in the case.
