Bryan Kohberger complains about bananas and prison food quality in Idaho

Convicted killer Bryan Kohberger was recently accused of throwing a tantrum over fruit selection at a maximum-security Idaho prison where he is serving multiple life sentences for the 2022 killings of four University of Idaho students.

The 31-year-old, who was being held at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution, reportedly “complained about the type of bananas he was served,” according to Chris McDonough, a retired homicide detective employed by the Cold Case Foundation.

“They’re not the kind he likes,” McDonough said. Daily Mail. “I’m not sure if that means they might have bruises on them and he doesn’t like it, or if there’s a particular type of banana he likes. But he does complain about the food he gets.”

The Idaho Department of Corrections did not immediately confirm to Fox News Digital what type of bananas were distributed by the prison or whether there was a specific condition or type that Kohberger requested.

“You can’t make this stuff up, can you?” McDonough said. “The guy is a quadruple murderer and complains that his bananas aren’t the kind he likes.”

Kohberger, nicknamed “Prison Karen,” made numerous complaints about living conditions months after arriving at the prison.

According to media reports, Kohberger complained that he was being threatened and harassed by fellow inmates, complained that he was not getting his full meal at meal time, and asked to be transferred to another part of the prison.

“The prison says, ‘Okay, deal with it,'” McDonough said.

Prison counselor Cameron Lindsay previously told Fox News Digital that the former criminology Ph.D. The student did not have “an iota of common sense,” making his time behind bars more difficult with every complaint he spent.

“If he had any common sense, he would have kept his mouth shut, his head down, and perhaps over time the welcoming committee would have lessened their verbal tirades against him,” Lindsay said.

McDonough told the outlet that the killer’s narcissistic tendencies would likely lead him to “push the boundaries and push the envelope as much as he can.”

“It’s about power and control,” McDonough said. “He was a nobody until he killed four people. … He had no relevance in the world. Now he’s Bryan Kohberger, who murdered four people. He’s got the cards because he doesn’t have to go to trial and tell the world how brutal these crimes are. And he’s trying to take advantage of that.”
