MOSCOW, IDAHO: Earlier in December, detectives investigating the Idaho quadruple homicide released bodycam footage which was shot around the same time when the four University of Idaho students were killed in the early hours of November 13. Ethan Chapin, Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, and Xana Kernodle were apparently sleeping when they were stabbed by their still-at-large assailant(s) in their off-campus house at 1122 King Road near the university.

In the bodycam footage, police are seen catching three students for underage drinking very close to the murder house.  The incident reportedly happened at roughly 2.50 am on November 13, while it has been said that the murders occurred between 3 am and 4 am. Now, it is being speculated that the bodycam footage may have also captured a few screams and words in the background as a Reddit user shared a clip where they slowed down the video to clarify the background noise so that it is audible. The user shared the video and wrote, "Something from the LE bodycam NOT being discussed 2:55 am passerby banter."
