MOSCOW, Idaho — A week after the murders of four University of Idaho students, the Moscow Police Department (MPD) held another press conference to update the public on their investigation.
During the press conference, Moscow Police Chief James Fry revealed that other friends of the victims were at the home where officers responded. He did not share how many friends or elaborate on their possible involvement.
On Nov. 13, officers with MPD were called to a home on King Road in Moscow for a welfare check. Once on the scene, officers found the victims, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Ethan Chapin, dead inside the residence.
Each victim died of stab wounds. One week later, the murder weapon has not been recovered and no suspect is in custody.
Fry said investigators have received 646 tips and have conducted 90 interviews.
Investigators have determined that Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen were at a bar called The Corner Club at 202 N. Main Street, in downtown Moscow, between 10 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. At approximately 1:40 a.m., Kaylee and Madison were seen on video streamed on Twitch at a food truck called the “Grub Truck” at 318 S. Main Street and used Uber from downtown to arrive at their 1122 King Road residence at 1:45 a.m.
Investigators also learned that Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle were seen at a fraternity house on the University of Idaho Campus. By 1:45 a.m., Ethan and Xana are believed to have returned to the residence on King Road.
