In the absence of information leading to the killer or killers, police have identified multiple rumors that have taken hold surrounding the deaths.<\/p>\n<p>Police began dispelling rumors this week, noting in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ci.moscow.id.us\/DocumentCenter\/View\/24745\/11-20-2022-Moscow-Homicide-Update\">a press release<\/a> on Sunday that online reports claiming the victims were tied and gagged were \u201cnot accurate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Several rumors were connected to the slaying involved animals, with police on Monday saying in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ci.moscow.id.us\/DocumentCenter\/View\/24748\/11-21-2022-Moscow-Homicide-Update\">a press release<\/a> that a report of a dog that had been skinned was not connected to the deaths of the students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDetectives are aware of a Latah County Sheriff\u2019s Office incident of the report of a skinned dog and have determined it is unrelated to this incident,\u201d police wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Another rumor about deceased animals being left on the property where the students were found murdered was also deemed to be a result of animal activity and \u201cunrelated to the incident.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Police have also said they do not believe that the two surviving roommates \u2013 who apparently did not hear the killings take place \u2013 are involved in the crime. They also do not believe a man observed in surveillance video outside a food truck visited by Goncalves and Mogen the night of the murder was involved, nor was a driver who drove the women home.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, police provided more information about the killings and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ci.moscow.id.us\/DocumentCenter\/View\/24745\/11-20-2022-Moscow-Homicide-Update\">asked the public<\/a>\u00a0for \u201ccontext to the events and people involved in these murders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnyone who observed notable behavior, has video surveillance, or can provide relevant information is asked to call the Tip Line,\u201d police said in a press release.<\/p>\n<p>Police are looking for any outside surveillance video taken between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. on November 13 \u2013 the morning of the murders \u2013 from local businesses and residences in the area. They\u2019ve requested all video, even if there doesn\u2019t appear to be any motion in them. Police are also asking for any tips or surveillance video about \u201cany observed suspicious behavior\u201d on the night of the murders, particularly in the areas where the students were.<\/p>\n<p>Goncalves and Mogen were in downtown Moscow prior to their murders, while Chapin and Kernodle were at the Sigma Chi fraternity house.<\/p>\n<p>The police also clarified that the 911 call about an unconscious person was made from inside the residence on one of the surviving roommates\u2019 cell phones. Several people spoke with the 911 dispatcher before a police officer arrived on the scene, and at this time, police do not believe anyone who was at the residence at the time the 911 call was made is involved in the crime.<\/p>\n<p>Police have received nearly 600 tips relating to the case but still have no suspects in custody and have not located the weapon used. Latah County Coroner Cathy Mabbutt\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/coroner-reports-extensive-wounds-found-on-murdered-university-of-idaho-students\">previously described<\/a>\u00a0the murder weapon as \u201ca bigger knife\u201d that would be consistent with the \u201cpretty extensive\u201d wounds found on the students. She wouldn\u2019t say how many times each student was stabbed, but she indicated that each student was stabbed multiple times and in different places on their bodies. She also said the victims had a \u201clittle bit of bruising\u201d but \u201cnothing significant,\u201d adding that such bruising \u201cwouldn\u2019t be uncommon during a stabbing.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Police in Moscow, Idaho, are working to dispel rumors and speculation that have arisen in the week since four University of Idaho students were found murdered on November 13.
