Killer who stabbed 4 Idaho students to death still at large​

The killer — or killers — who stabbed four University of Idaho students to death remained at large Tuesday, prompting many students to leave the campus in the idyllic small town despite police assurances that there was no imminent risk to the community.

So many students had left the scenic tree-lined campus in Moscow, Idaho, by Tuesday that university officials said a candlelight vigil scheduled for the next day would instead be held after the Thanksgiving break.

The students, all close friends, were found dead in an off-campus rental home around noon on Sunday, and officials said they likely were killed several hours earlier. Latah County Coroner Cathy Mabbutt told the Spokane, Washington-based television station KXLY that her preliminary investigation showed the students were stabbed to death. There is no indication that substance use was involved in the deaths, Mabbutt said.

Oh and she said she never suspected him which kind of disputes what I believe it was Dateline said... That was in last night's not sure about tonight's yet... Still listening.

If all recall, Dateline said some things that made it clear SOMEONE was leaking in the case and it created a bit of an uproar and the judge was NOT happy...

SHe doesn't seem to be reading it word for word as the one last night did, but she does seem to be covering all it said. THe one last night, the article was on the screen and one could follow along. Also it showed the sister now having purple hair in kind of a jagged cut. Previously she'd been a pretty young blonde woman.

So both have some different pics and info in them aside from the article. I'd say both are worth a watch. Maybe when I get done with this one I'll try to find the other and link it. Shall see.

The harrowing news had spread across the country in the fall of 2022: Four college students were found stabbed to death at a house near the University of Idaho campus. Mel Kohberger, who was preparing to start a new job as a mental health therapist in New Jersey, could not help feeling a sense of alarm.​

Her brother, Bryan, was living just 15 minutes from the scene of the mysterious killings. Investigators had no suspects. And Bryan was just the type of person who would leave his door unlocked and go out on late-night jogs.​

“Bryan, you are running outside and this psycho killer is on the loose,” she remembers telling him. “Be careful.” He thanked her for checking on him and assured her that he would stay safe.​

In early December that year, her brother returned to their parents’ home in Pennsylvania for the holidays, and later that month, Ms. Kohberger got a call from her sister, Amanda. Law enforcement officers had burst into the house in the middle of the night, and placed Mr. Kohberger in handcuffs.​

“She was like, ‘I’m with the F.B.I., Bryan’s been arrested,’” Ms. Kohberger said. “I was like, ‘For what?’”​

The response: “The Idaho murders.” For a brief moment, she wondered if it was a prank. Then a sense of nausea overtook her.​

Oh yeah, it was green. Couldn't remember, thought it was purple. Now people can do as they wish and many do it but she whas a lot nicer looking the other way. So the picture is in the article? Wasn't sure if it came along with it or if the show had it from elsewhere.

One of my thoughts was well they feel awful and she doesn't want to be recognized but that makes no sense or you wouldn't put such a picture out. And she made herself way MORE noticeable actually. And the style itself too. Huh.

Did you happen to watch the one with the body cam footage at all? Of the house and the roommate talking?

And what did you think of all she said?

I didn't go find that other one did I? I meant to but had a grocery order to get done and then I forgot about it.

I saw a little bit of what she said on one of the shows last night, too. None of it was surprising to me. If she wants to speak out, that’s her business, but it doesn’t really interest me very much.
