'Happy Face Killer' wants Bryan Kohberger as a potential cellmate to solve 'security issues'

Keith Jesperson, infamously known as the Happy Face serial killer, has expressed his opinion that Bryan Kohberger should serve his sentence in the same Oregon prison where Jesperson is currently incarcerated. He argues that this facility would ensure the safety of the Idaho student murderer.

“His best hope is to be transferred to here, the max prison in Oregon to be away from those who want to make a name for themselves by killing him,” Jesperson conveyed in a message to Keith Rovere, a former prison minister and podcaster, who then shared the note with Fox News Digital.

“This prison gets inmates from other states in order to protect them from the drama.”

Jesperson, a former truck driver, was responsible for the deaths of at least eight women during the 1990s. He earned his nickname due to his signature habit of drawing smiley faces on letters to the media and investigators. Known for exchanging correspondence with other notorious killers, Jesperson has also claimed responsibility for numerous additional killings, though authorities remain skeptical of these claims.

Scarver told the New York Post in 2015 that he was disgusted by the serial killer and believes guards left them unattended together just to give him an opportunity to kill Dahmer with a metal bar from a weight room.

The IDOC said earlier this week that Kohberger would be screened and evaluated before authorities would determine appropriate housing and security measures.

“Once in IDOC custody, the person goes through a Reception and Diagnostic Unit (RDU) process to evaluate their needs and determine appropriate housing placement; this process takes 7-14 days,” a spokesperson told Fox News Digital. “We wait until a person completes RDU to determine their classification, housing placement and privileges.”

Kohberger has a high profile. His crime shocked the country and much of the world due to the brutality and randomness and the weeks-long search for a suspect who primarily got caught because he left only one piece of evidence, a knife sheath with his DNA on alongside Mogen’s body.

He had no known connection to the victims, a group of young friends who had done him no wrong. And he’s shown no remorse — or any emotion whatsoever — in 2½ years of court appearances.

Inmates who have killed women and children are often singled out behind bars, insiders tell Fox News Digital. Three of the four Idaho victims were also asleep during the attack, making it even more cowardly. And Kohberger’s social awkwardness is expected to rub other prisoners the wrong way.
