On Saturday, November 13th, 2022, police were called to a scene where they found four students stabbed to death and nobody knows why. Students who were halfway done with their studies decided to move off campus into a two-story shared house that was just fifteen minutes away from campus. That night, students Chapin and Kernodle, went to a party on campus while Mogen and Goncalves went to a downtown bar. Mogen and Goncalves stopped at a food truck on their way home. “They didn’t seem to be in distress or danger”, says Joseph Woodall who manages the food truck. After waiting 10 minutes for their food they made their way home. They arrived home around the early morning hours. On Sunday afternoon students who share a home upstairs from the four students came downstairs and saw an unconscious body laying in their beds. A call came to 911 about an unconscious person at the residence. When officers arrived at the scene they found the four college kids dead. The police are still investigating the situation but they have confirmed that the killer used an edged weapon and made the wounds deeper. On Thursday, November 17, coroners confirmed that the students had been stabbed multiple times and that the students were asleep when they were killed.“It’s believed the four students were killed in the house between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m” Moscow Mayor Art Bettge told ABC News’. Officers stated that they did not have a forced entry and it did not look like they struggled to get into the house. Moscow Police Chief James Fry called it “an isolated, targeted attack.” The only two surviving students were asleep in the basement and slept through the entire thing, but had some defensive wounds. In a November 28th interview, Goncalves’s father (Steve Goncalves) told them that the students died quickly and did not bleed for hours, so an earlier 911 call would have not saved them. “The detectives have said this weapon is probably something [the killer] paid money for and something that they’re proud of.” The investigation is still ongoing and detectives are urging anyone with information to come forward and help end the suffering that the loved ones are going through.
