Idaho police to hold press conference a week after brutal college killings
Police in Moscow, Idaho will hold a news conference at 3:00 p.m. PST on Sunday, a week after four University of Idaho students were found fatally stabbed in a home near campus.
Moscow Police Department Chief James Fry will provide an update on the murder investigation Sunday afternoon in the Idaho Central Credit Union alumni lounge on the school’s campus. This is the second press conference held by the police department, KREM 2 reported.
The mystery surrounding the murders of Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Xana Kernodle, 20, Madison Mogen, 21, and Kernodle’s boyfriend Ethan Chapin, 20, has intensified as police have not named a suspect in the case seven days after their death. The three young women were roommates in a house near campus, while Chapin was visiting his girlfriend at home when they were tragically killed.
Each person died from stab wounds. A weapon has not yet been located.
