#Idaho #homicide #student
This is a Ted Bundy copy-cat… The police should concentrate their search closer to where the dog was skinned..
This has to be part of the safe T act!! They probably let a convicted murderer out of jail and now he’s running loose. Just my opinion. Because the story doesn’t make sense
I think the sus left one drop of his blood. Do dna asap
There is a lot of blood at the scene and it will be hard to define a fifth source. And, even if they do who do they match it to? Not a tremendous amount of DNA files around.
I’m sure doing multiple DNA testing is just standard procedure.
Experience detectives need to go there and help solve this brutal crime. I really believe theirs more than one killer. Most likely did it for the thrill. Evil is real.
100% TRUE!!👍🏻
Hmm…despite the family saying the ex boyfriend is 100% innocent…the fact the he was recently dumped and the 7 phone calls…just prior = if I had to bet on who did it, right now it would be on him. I sure hope I turn out to be wrong.
Sounds isolated
They were murdered by someone targeting this house, someone who lived there previously probably.
Stabbing murders are very messy. So you can imagine stabbing 4 people. I don’t understand how the killer was able to stab 4 people to death and not have any wounds, not even a nick that would have left DNA evidence behind.
I thought the same thing…NOW they expand the search area? Not too bright.
They should have had the video dragnet done in the first couple hours of discovering the crime. Why are they now expanding their physical search – who’s running that circus? They announced 4 people were dead but there was no danger to the public, then days later announce it was a terrifyingly bloody massacre. I hope the locals understand how poorly this case is being handled.
Yeah, and my recordings are deleted after so many days unless I intentionally save them… They lost valuable time… This is when PD that do not have experience with this time of crime should call in reinforcement for larger pd.
It’s why I always double check my door and make sure it’s locked
If the killer killed these people, why would he turn himself in?
lame lousy police investigation!
We probably only 10% of the information that the police have right now. Of course they don’t share leads, etc. on the news at this point.
This is the works of a serial killer.. watch
Every single trash can and dumpster in the city should be checked for discarded evidence prior to that garbage being taken away for the foreseeable future. Everyone should look in their own cans in the morning, before the truck empties it.
What is going on? This is terrible…find THIS killer! Good Lord…4 people Dead… ridiculous… DISGUSTING. What is going on in Idaho?
甚麽三千年?
Moscow? What? Moscow Idaho… GOOD LORD….what?
Someone knows the girls someone didn’t like them or jealous they will find him or her I think it’s more than one person I don’t know how people can do that
Well just plain stupid to not lock your doors in this day n age an dumb to not teach your kids to lock theirs an be careful. Watch surroundings, lock vehicles…this is 2022..not 1982…those kids didn’t have a chance. An I bet this remains a cold case due to sloppy police work an contaminated crime scene. That’s on Police Chief
Its a serial/spree killer. He may have moved on.
All of these non-door-lockers need to watch Doorbell News! That will definitely persuade them.
I think this is Brian Laundry all over again with the 2 room mates being Brian. And d police refusing to check them thoroughly
There is absolutely no reason to not lock your doors. Doesn’t matter where you live. It should be an automatic, effortless thing – like seatbelts.
Doors are made to be locked, in my opinion.
This lady at 1:30 has some odd behavior
I think she realized she just gave out too much information…it wasn’t unusual for her to be calling someone at 3:00 a.m.? What was going on in that place???
Hope they arrest someone before the college kids have to return after Thanksgiving. Be nice to know perp is off the streets.
I would think that there would be a few surveillance cameras in; and outside the house where the victims lived; and the surveillance cameras would have seen the suspect.
Straight outta Scream.
is the killer blm blm ?
Listening to this story says the perp was in the house the entire time before, during and after the murders.
???????
@Dolly Wilson…
It was juicy Smolette
This is a stone cold killer that’s done this before. You don’t wake up one day and decide to stab four people to death. He has done this before and will be very difficult to catch.
Textbook serial killer, people has been going missing for a while in the ID/WA area.
Many people are saying small towns in Idaho are changing because of people moving to the state, mostly from California. I guess they can’t feel/be safe anymore and need home surveillance, also a new habit of locking doors.
I don’t understand that. The violent ones usually don’t want to move out of the crime-ridden states. It’s usually people trying to escape the crime.
Public school and free lunch program chat. Yikes
People need to expect the worst from people sadly. Doesn’t matter what neighborhood you’re in, doesn’t matter if the sun is out, doesn’t matter if you think it won’t happen. Nothing stops someone who doesn’t care and will do anything necessary to get what they want. Lock your doors, lock your car, lock your car door as soon is you get in the car. Don’t trust anyone until they’ve earned your trust. You’re the only one that can keep you safe.
@Southwest NDN no ‘they’re’ not, but continue your idiotic fantasy. what they would like is for you to stop murdering people in the name of your 2nd amendment rights.
In the USA I felt I needed to be very careful where to go, especially without a car. And I always locked my room door. My host family thought I am crazy, they left the side door to the house open 😀 (Santa Barbara). When I hear about these cases, it might not be so stupid to close your room door.
@davey dudely who shoved something up your a$$ and why would a law abiding citizen murder innocent people you got it twisted it’s the criminals who get guns from the street that are already stolen you think a felon gets guns from a store they can’t even buy ammo
I went to college at temple university in Philly. One of the most dangerous universities in the US and students still ain’t lock their doors smh
Exactly
I don’t care how nice an area is; security cameras are a must.
Security cameras can help deter crime.
That mom doesn’t seem legit. Weird.
People act in very weird ways when they are experiencing grief and shock. It runs the gamete from hysterical to detached and unemotional. I would feel guilty as a reporter for putting a parent through an interview this early…the mom hasn’t even begun to process it.
More than one culprit ?
90 percent of the homes on the block are a bunch of students. The city needs to place cameras on the ends of the streets. Smh
For the last time, check the professors the girls were taking classes with this year and last year. She did not pay for that $70K Range Rover, that’s a gift from someone who could pay for that and expect stable dating in return. Professors date girls in their classes all the time, and many girls use them to pay for rent, car, etc. especially at a party school like U of I. Check who paid for the Range Rover, that’s your guy.
What happened to going to school to learn and study??? College.has become an extension of high school. Party and have a ball. Sooner or later we all pay our dues.
Interesting theory. But she just got the car. What would go wrong so quickly? Not that you’d know. Rhetorical question.
@Mischa Raine That young dude she was living with, that’s what went wrong so quickly. Professor’s ego couldn’t handle it that he was just the money bag, and they laughed at him.
Why would Kaylee call her ex-boyfriend seven times before the murder? I think a thousand percent he’ll turn into a suspect when they find DNA that will identify him.
The mom seems to hide something
No way would I not lock my doors starting probably 20 years ago. And I grew up in an area where nobody locked their doors when I was a kid.
It seems this happens daily in low income/inner cities, but we are seeing a concentrated effort to report violence in these upper class, white, and/or suburban neighborhoods, all by the political party that claims it wants equality but doesn’t report if they aren’t white and rich. Fakes.
Btw, I don’t think it’s JUST the left that does this. It’s all agenda on both sides. Seeing these efforts mostly to get guns banned and in this case, solely for ratings. Sad but that’s interest groups in political media reporting for you. Just as bad as lobbyists
And now I’m mostly disappointed in myself for helping this channel get better at algorithm but leaving my “influence” comment here, but, alas.
And when they do report on low income/inner city crime, people say they only showing crime in black neighborhoods. Can’t win.
Multiple calls to BF??
According to family, this is normal.
The town that dreaded Sundown
Why is this in the news still? Over 30 murders in Chicago happened since then.
You have to have locks on your doors to lock them. When I lived in Idaho in 2003, the standard builder grade home didn’t come with a deadbolt or a lock on the front door. Just a regular bedroom type doorknob. I know that was a long time ago, but most ppl don’t do something unless they have a reason too.
Why on God’s earth did people NOT lock their doors in this day and age! They live in a university city with strangers from all over coming to live there temporarily. Even if they felt safe because it’s a small town, they have a cross section of people from all over!
P
Goodness those girls were so bright and beautiful and that young man handsome as can be.
If victims were asleep when killed how did they get defensive wounds? Terrible police work and reporting.
Considering they were probably all killed by 3 am? This murderer then had to go home. Is there any roommate or house mate recollecting a roommate entering the abode at roughly 3-4 am? Did any roommate hear their possible murderer house mate entering the home? And if so, did this roommate immediately head to the shower to change their bloodied clothes and, perhaps, washing the knife and tending to possible injuries or scratches or cuts? If everyone in that community is asked about hearing if a late night roommate entered the home late at night, only to then take a longer than average time in the shower……
You have your very likely candidate that was out doing mischief? If anyone of you have any roommate matching this time line of coming home late only to take an exorbitant amount of time in the shower, please let the investigators know about this. And if he was doing laundry right away, even more suspicious. And get out of your head: “It could never be him”
The lesson should be always LOCK your doors and ARM your daughters.
The police are acting dumb by design on some of this stuff ,,,
Doors have locks for a reason
Cameras are still in the dark ages. They need to make one that alerts your phone with no wifi limitations.
:Lock & Load
I think it was the lbgtq guy who killed the lbgtq club members
He was a Trumper.
This is the Biden Era of pedophiles and rapists
We need them have a list of suspects, not just a list of people who didn’t do it.
Why’d they say it was a crime of passion if they had no suspects? Where the heck did that come from?
Why did they tell everyone they were safe with a mass murderer on the loose without having a suspect being monitored?
FBI needs to step in or something.
FBI is involved. If they release suspects it could be seen as defamation to some if they get it wrong
As a simple jurist,looking for the truth. Couple ?tions. If they were stabbed to death,multiple times?And lied there bleeding for, what was it 8-9 hrs? How do the room mates try too wake them, call others over before calling 911. Report someones past out..Just asking??
What bar were they at? Look at the video from that maybe. Perhaps they were followed at a distance given how inebriated they were.
RIP FOREVER FRIENDS🙏🌹condolences to the families and friends.
Still think it’s the room mate
Her socials had some really disturbing content and the boyfriend had a Rambo knife
Has the boyfriend been ruled out as a suspect?
My heart hurts when I see this beautiful jung people but but is a weird case. Something is not right
Very sad and tragic. It seems like the investigation could be handled better.
The mother saying about the guilt must be sickening them about the murderer, that person would definitely not feel any type of guilt remorse or empathy if they did this to four innocent victims.
Agreed. Someone who would do something like this is so far gone to the dark side, all they may feel is fear for themselves and getting captured. There’s no place far enough or secretive enough though where they can hide. Karma always, always bites back and hard.
This is so so sad how they have not found the killer or killers.
You should always lock your doors no matter where you live.
EL MUNDIAL DE QATAR HOY.
GOL GENOCIDA.
ESPAÑA LEGALIZA ESTE GENOCIDIO.
FIN.
Maybe the police chief should STOP holding news conferences and giving contradictory info every other day and just let the Investigators Investigate,as an aside the Victims families seem to have A Lot of info regarding this horrible crime, Maybe They should stop talking to the press every other day as well.
I don’t think they were saying she was calling for help but as she said to come over. They have to clear him and they know the time of death and when it happened.
4 less republicans who cares?
A guy I used to stupidly hang out with when I was young went to prison after being charged with double homicide. They finally figured out it was him after 11 years. He’d been in & out of jail his whole life. Case was solved w the help of his wife who was with him & had been the only one charged w this a couple years ago, but thankfully she gave up the info tht he was a part of it, as well. Anyway, gives me hope that they’ll start actually catching these murderers.
Who don’t lock doors , you are never safe don’t matter where you live , it doesn’t make sense. I explain this to my kids, grandkids All the time Period 🙏🏽
I don’t care where I lived, I would ALWAYS lock my doors!!
Y’all BETTER START LOCKING YOUR DOORS 😉 BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY 😐
fear this person will do this again…… as she looks at her next daughter
THIS IS THE KILLER
HER AND JACK KILLED HER DAUGHTER
Only a few camera’s in the area ? That’s so ironic. They’re ain’t a place safe in the world safe enough to not have camera’s around. Like come on. Just wow.
With all do respect…an individual who has slain 4 other innocent ppl …has no guilt, no remorse, no conscious…they are heartless and evil that’s the point!
The cops investigating this crime aren’t inspiring confidence. Numerous examples of their incompetence are glaringly obvious.
Cops: This was a targeted attack, you’re all safe.
Us: How do you know?
Cops: Well he stopped after four, amirite?
Lock your doors, locks are there for a reason.
Poor babies why can’t y’all find who did this.
The Murderer could have entered the home before they arrived home and been hiding for hours until they all went to sleep, they need footage before 3AM As well. Geesh
How ironic in a town named Moscow no one locked their doors.
^^^^^^ Understand Your Existence … EXISTNC https://youtu.be/ug0HgvuL1xE
Bring in the dogs I don’t see any dogs sniffing out the crime scene!!!
I believe the police actually have something! But they’re keeping it close to the vest! They’ll get this person!!
Where’s the large reward? That would help!
Clint Hughes posted that his neighbors’ ‘sweet little dog was skinned like a deer. No animal did this. Our dog is bigger and was so anxious about the same time that he tore his bed up into a thousand pieces. Also, our cat has been missing for the last couple of days.’
It was also noted how the four students were killed with a knife – believed to have been a Rambo blade – which may also have been used in skinning the dog, although no official link to the murders has been made by those in law enforcement.
Many murderers are known to have begun their criminal careers by abusing animals, before moving on to human targets.
It was the landlord
EL GOBIERNO DE ASESINOS ESPAÑOLES UNIDOS POR ESTE GENOCIDIO TODOS HAN MATADO A MILLONES AMORDAZADOS TOTALMENTE INDEFENSOS Y LO HACEN AHORA MISMO TAMBIEN POR NO ESTAR TODOS DETENIDOS.
I wouldn’t rule out anyone unless they are willing to take a polygraph test. The roommates & ex-boyfriend should be the first ones to take the test. The people that showed up in the morning should also take the lie detector test to rule them out. Often, the killer returns to the scene of the crime.
If they can triangulate all cell phones in that area at that time and interview them all
They probably left the sliding door open, these are young people who come home after hours from parting. They ask to leave something open like a window or somewhere they can get in. Of course a window or door has to be unlocked. There drunk and all they wanna do is get in the house without waking anyone up.
