A 36-minute upload labeled as a January 30, 2023 interview with Amélie Pedneault, a Washington State University criminology professor. The public page credits @connor..h8 and identifies Accomplished_Day as uploader. The source belongs to the post-arrest inquiry into Bryan Kohberger’s academic environment and potential observations by WSU faculty. Independent WSU profile information confirms Pedneault’s criminology role and research interests, but those credentials do not authenticate any specific statement attributed to her in online discussion. Search-indexed reactions associate the interview with ISP Supplement 0169 and with recollections about Kohberger’s seminar participation and a statement concerning work with predators; without captions or a checked transcript, those claims cannot yet be assigned precise wording, context, or evidentiary weight. The record therefore preserves the source and its research leads while withholding unsupported detail. A full transcript, speaker identification, exact questions, key timestamps, and any referenced documents must be added to Record 008 in place when the audio can be reliably transcribed.
A 56-minute recording presented as a January 5, 2023 interview with a Quality Inn assistant general manager identified only by the initials ML. The uploader states that Bryan Kohberger stayed at the hotel from June 30 to July 1, 2022 and credits ABCsOfTrueCrime, which reportedly received more than 150 Moscow Police Department files through a duplication request for previously released records and identified these hotel-staff interviews among them. The source may help document an early trip or lodging event associated with Kohberger before the homicides, as well as how hotel employees recognized, remembered, or retrieved information about a guest months later. The public description does not identify the exact hotel property, reservation method, room, payment record, companions, vehicle, purpose of travel, or what the assistant manager personally observed. Those details must not be inferred from the title. Because the upload has no available captions, a complete transcript, precise key-moment timestamps, speaker map, and exhibit list are pending. Record 009 should be updated in place when a reliable transcript or native interview file is supplied.
