Police in Moscow, Idaho, have released a map showing the last known movements of four students who were found stabbed to death at their shared home on Sunday.
The card confirms that Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves, both 21 and friends since 6th grade, were last seen at a downtown bar and food truck outside before returning home at 1:45 a.m.
The other two, Xana Kernodle, 20, and boyfriend Ethan Chapin – who didn’t live at the house – were at a party on campus on Saturday night.
All four were back at the house by 1:45 a.m. Sunday morning and were murdered between 3 and 4 a.m.
Her two roommates, Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, were in the house at the time of the murders but survived. Police have yet to arrest anyone in connection with the killings and have asked for eyewitnesses to come forward.

It emerged on Friday that the four may have been stabbed to death in their beds.
Latah County Coroner Cathy Mabbutt told NewsNation that the victims were found in bed with multiple stab wounds to their chests and described the gun as a “really big knife.”
She told Idaho News that the attack appeared to be “personal.”
The house shared by the six women showed no signs of a break-in, police said at a news conference on Wednesday.
Moscow police chief James Fry said nothing appeared to have been stolen from the house, which had a key code lock.
“We’re not 100% sure if the door was unlocked, but there was no damage and the door was still open when we got there,” Fry said.
When asked about the Moscow Mayor’s description of the murder as a “crime of passion,” Fry said they were looking into it and were also looking into social media posts and any friends or relationships of the women.
‘We’ll all look at each other,’ said Fry.
“Every tip, every lead. There’s nobody we won’t talk to.
“We will ensure that no stone is left unturned.”

Kernodle’s father Jeffrey has revealed his theory that the killer could have slipped into the house through a sliding door from the kitchen.
“The door closes with a numerical code.
“Every time you leave, you have to go around the house because of the number code, so they either knew that or walked around and maybe found the sliding door open,” he told Arizona Family.
Goncalves’ sister Alivea said many of the other young people in the area had access to the house and knew the code for the door.
“There was a keypad on her front door,” she told KHQ.
“I will say, because of the closeness of the community and because of the security, I think a lot of people had access to that door.
‘But yes, there was a keypad code on that door.
“They lived on one of the most well-known streets for seniors, it’s a well-known place.
“I know my sisters and I know for a fact that they locked their doors.”
This is the sliding door that one of the girls’ fathers believes was used by the killer to gain entry to the house in the early hours of Sunday morning. All four victims were stabbed in their beds

She said they were deeply concerned by the targeted killings.
“It wasn’t a hit-and-run, it wasn’t a car accident. Someone did this with the intention of doing this. Not once, not twice, not three times, but four times.
“I don’t know of anything more terrifying than that. I don’t know what more people could be afraid of. I would like to add that in this case it is not enough to be vigilant.
“You were vigilant. They went out in pairs.
“They only went downtown with a trusted Uber. They only got home in a familiar Uber. They only went to trusted places, which they visited every other weekend.’
She made a desperate plea to the other college students in town.
“If you’ve seen someone act outside of their nature, I know it’s important to protect family and friends and I know those bonds of loyalty are strong, but you should fear,” she said.
“If you’ve noticed bad behavior, if you’ve noticed something in the trash can in the shared bathroom, if you’ve noticed a weird stain on the fridge after your roommate got home late, give them a call.
“Any injuries, anything at all. Worst case scenario, the police will talk to them and they can go home and you’ve done your job,” she said.
The families said they were frustrated by the inaction of the local police department.
The killer remains at large with no real leads or suspects named.
