(NewsNation) — Idaho State Police have released nearly 700 photos from inside Bryan Kohberger’s apartment and office at Washington State University.

In photos obtained by NewsNation, writing can be seen on Kohberger’s office whiteboard, some of which reads “Take it easy!” and “Don’t give up.”

Criminal justice books were found in Kohberger’s home in Pullman, Washington, which were ostensibly related to his teaching assistant role and pursuit of a Ph.D. in criminology.

One book covered the sexual victimization of women on college campuses.

A former professor of Kohberger’s warned of his dangerous tendencies months before Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle were stabbed to death in 2022.

In the photos, greeting cards can be seen on Kohberger’s television stand. A card seemingly from his mother reads, “A son never leaves your home, but never leaves your heart.”

A black glove was also found in Kohberger’s closet, but it was not connected to the murder.

Photos were also taken of Kohberger’s in-depth research papers. Subjects included getting into the minds of criminals, the death penalty and small-town policing.

Kohberger is currently held in Idaho’s maximum security prison, where he has complained of being tormented and threatened by fellow inmates.
