That guy seems great at his job. He also appeared to recognize Kaylee, greeting her with “Welcome back” or something like that.I can’t imagine a more annoying job than taking orders from drunk college students after bars close.

I have thought about this. Assuming the house is dark at the time, it would be hard to tell the 4 blonde girls apart. IMO though if it was targeted with any amount of planning involved you'd think they would atleast learn the layout and room locations.Is it possible the target was a survivor? Hence why name not released who called or their locations in town that day? I noticed the police site summary states “no named suspects at this time” not “no known”. Also the map area expansion. This seems crucial. The police also mentioned canvassing areas in town, in last update. I would love to see these routed from the house. Edited to add official link Moscow, ID | Official Website
Also, many of the proposed (here, not by LE) motives of jealousy could apply to KG being "targeted" with her new ride (albeit pre-owned), new job, graduation, etc. IMO, her location in the house is the most telling that she and/or MM were "the targets". Much less has been speculated and discussed about MM. I hope we haven't gotten blinders on about the possibility MM was the target.I don’t think they’ve given any indication at all as to who the target(s) might have been, or even if “targeted” refers to individuals rather than something like “everyone at the neighborhood party house” or “sorority girls and frat bros” etc.
I think most people have focused on one or more of the victims being targeted because they were the occupants killed while the survivors were spared, but I agree that does not necessarily exclude the survivors from possibly having been targeted.
I think most people have focused on Kaylee because she was the unattached person of the four victims and had a recent break-up, and her family has been vocal about her whereabouts and communications that evening and introduced the grub truck video that some viewers suspected included potentially relevant details. Secondarily, people have focused on both Kaylee and Maddie because, in addition to the grub truck observations, there’s a presumption the two were on the highest floor and could have been spared if the killer entered on either the first or second floor (another presumption at this point) and the target was primarily Ethan and/or Xana. But I don’t think LE has revealed anything at all to suggest Kaylee and/or Maddie were more likely targets than anyone else at the residence, including the surviving roommates.
I find it odd that so little has been revealed about the whereabouts of Ethan and Xana, and to a lesser degree the surviving roommates, but they might only have revealed comprehensive details of Kaylee’s and Maddie’s whereabouts due to the grub truck video being released through other channels, whipping up questions and rumors that needed to be addressed.
Well, you have actually brought up something else I'm wondering about. There are no evidence flags in the yard or parking area. Police claim they don't know how the person got in and out although there is evidence markers on the sliding glass door. So...why have they not brought in bloodhounds to try to trace a scent in the yard or on the parking pad and see where it leads?Saw someone comment on previous thread about how terrifying it is that the killer may have showered there and cleaned themselves up.
My question is what do you think is more risky/likely for them to have done?
Stayed and showered risking running into someone or someone potentially having heard and called 911.
Or
Left covered in blood or at least with their bloody clothes in tow and risk being discovered with evidence on them, or leaving a trail of blood/scent?
I am at a loss.
There has to be DNA unless the perp wore special meat cutting gloves to keep from cutting himself during this frenzy, How diabolical would it be to go as far as getting these special gloves
Based on this layout,X’s room has a closet on the wall where the supposed blood is on the outside of the house. It appears that the bed would not fit on that wall, it would have to be opposite.Does that mean it is blood on the exterior of the house, from the bedroom that faces the street (off the living room)? Is it a building materials stain on the side of the house? Why did a reporter think it is blood?

The bigger guy that said he was showing someone new in town the area but appeared to be by himself just talking to a few different people?After going down the rabbit hole I’m back on the grub truck video. There is another person in it that makes me uneasy.. Not the friend in the hoodie who was there with them. Anyone else rewatched this?
Police have said that this was "targeted". I understand that to mean that one of the victims was the target. I'm guessing that the reason police say that it was targeted is that one of the victims had more, or different, injuries. Maybe he spent a little more time with one of the victims. That's just a guess.
If the culprit entered the house via the kitchen sliding door (red crime scene tape on door), and if his target was on the third floor (easy to see into the bedrooms from hill behind house), then perhaps he thought it was best to kill everyone on the second floor before going to the third floor - to reduce chances of being caught. Eliminate witnesses or anyone who could run out of the house before the culprit did. Numbers 5 and 6 are interchangeable.

Agreed. It’s been less than 2 weeks. There are four victims and massive amounts of evidence to process. Labs can take ages, unfortunately. There are no obvious suspects like a Jodi Arias stating investigators in the face. I think it’s pretty unreasonable to expect that they’ve made an arrest by now - I think we are all hoping for that, but I’m not shocked there isn’t one. I’m sure we’ve all seen cold case documentaries about crimes like this taking decades to solve until there’s a hit on DNA/prints.There seems to be a lot of criticism, veiled or otherwise, at LE and local police.
I think it’s fair to say that Moscow PD probably are overwhelm by this case. That’s no criticism of them, they haven’t had a murder in 7 years and are now dealing with a highly complex multiple homicide whilst being simultaneously thrust into the National media spotlight. This has hit them out of the blue.
But - The FBI have thrown a ton of resource at this. 22 detectives landed in Moscow plus 20 remote is a significant effort. Aside from the behavioural unit no breakdown has been done but I would assume they have provided skills and expertise specific to the crime.
As such I don’t put too much belief into a bungled investigation - And some of the very basic suggestions in the PC yesterday like phone or wi if pings - I can’t imagine for one minute they aren’t exploring all of these areas.
The one thing they can’t reverse though is a bungled crime scene. No evidence of it but anything that happened in those first few hours after discovery in the house that caused contamination or destruction of key evidence by and large can’t be undone.Not suggesting it has but I have comfort in the quality of the investigation with the FBI involved - The unknown is did the less experienced local LE do everything they could upon discovery to preserve the scene
It’s clear in the video that he arrived with two people, probably a man a woman. Handed off a drink to the probable woman after ordering and tried to hand off a drink to the probable man but the probable man was busy hugging someone in a little reunion. I think he did successfully hand it off at some point. He did not appear to be alone.The bigger guy that said he was showing someone new in town the area but appeared to be by himself just talking to a few different people?
Although I don’t think he’s involved he is pretty weird and kinda creepy.
That could very well be true. But it also makes me think that this person perhaps was unknown by anyone, has possibly fled the area, has no prior record, and may not be found.This is my theory:
The perp was a self-loathing loner, college-aged but never amounted to much in life (high school education only), obsessed with pretty girls online that he could never get with, lives in a fantasy world in which he's friends with the women he stalks online, incel-type, routinely (sexually) harasses women/girls online, get's angry when they do not reciprocate his advances, was not taught boundaries... sort of a mix of Ted Bundy/Elliot Rodger.
The victims did NOT know this person but he knew them (through online stalking).
MOO, don't come for me.
No the knife itself whether it’s a true kabar or any fixed blade knife wouldn’t be expensive or difficult to obtain or uncommon. its been talked about in the threads in detail but wanted to just to simply answer your questionBeing not american, can anyone answer a knife question for me. Would it have to be a pretty quality expensive knife? After seeing the coroner say the wounds were chest area it made me think, a mid range knife would surely break? Is it common for people to have decent level knives or just hunters etc. Where i live its illegal to have any kind of bladed weapon on you in public so its baffling for me
