A single mother from Kentucky has confessed to being “lovesick” over accused University of Idaho quadruple killer Bryan Kohberger.

“My love interest … is named Bryan and is accused of murder, and I just wish to connect with him above anyone else,” she wrote on Facebook, noting they’ve never spoken.
“One way to describe my feelings for him over the last week or so … is kind of like being lovesick.”
Of course, following a seven-week manhunt, Kohlberger was arrested in the gruesome Nov. 13 stabbings in Moscow, Idaho that claimed the lives of four students.
But never mind that, Hislope declared her love for the accused on Jan. 4 — just five days after he was arrested.
She noted on social media that both are Scorpios and birth charts told her he could be Hislope’s “divine masculine counterpart.”
“When it shows the love-making scene between the man and the woman that are two different characters in the movie, although it’s not very explicit, I’d want to be with my love interest Bryan in those ways,” she wrote, referencing the 1987 vampire film The Lost Boys.
According to the New York Post, the in-love-with-love mom previously had her heart set on convicted killer Cody Hall, 33. Hall, who also exudes charm, was caged for life for shooting a man and then attacking his sister and another woman in California.
“I visited him, put money in his (commissary) account, wrote him letters, and I wanted to be in a loyal, commited (sic) relationship with him,” she wrote in 2018. “When I say I was in love with him, I mean I was completely and truly in love with him.”
But the paramour du jour is the goofy Kohberger.
Hislope has been writing letters to him in the Latah County Jail and included racy photos of herself.
“With me being deprived of a love and sex life for so long, and only wanting one with someone I truly want wholeheartedly, with my feelings for Bryan I’ve had to be true to myself in reaching out to him,” Hislope wrote on Facebook last month.
The Post said the Latah County Sheriff’s Office would not confirm — or deny — the love letters destined for their most famous prisoner.
Kohberger is charged with four counts of first-degree murder for allegedly killing Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, and Ethan Chapin, 20. He has yet to enter a plea.
But his lawyer optimistically said the criminology student “is eager to be exonerated.”
