MOSCOW, Idaho – Idaho police say more than 1,084 digital media submissions have been submitted to the Federal Bureau of Investigation after previously asking the public for any advice that might help investigators find a suspect in connection with the fatal stabbings of four students from the University of Idaho on November 13.

Four University of Idaho students, Ethan Chapin, 20; Xana Kernodle, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, were murdered at a home on King Road in Moscow, Idaho, between 3 and 4 am on November 13.

Police have not identified a suspect in the slayings and said each of the victims was stabbed multiple times and “some” had defensive wounds.

After asking the public for advice related to the quadruple homicide, police said Saturday that more than 1,084 digital media submissions were submitted to the Federal Bureau of Investigation through an online portal.

The Moscow Police Department also said in the press release that more than 2,770 calls have been made to its tip line on the case, in addition to more than 2,645 emails sent to the tip line.

In addition, 113 pieces of physical evidence were collected and turned over to the Idaho State Police crime lab, 4,000 crime scene photographs were taken, as well as multiple “3D scans of the residence.”

On November 12, Goncalves and Mogen were at the Corner Club bar in Moscow between 10 p.m. King Road home at 1:56am after being taken home by a “private party” who police do not believe is a suspect.

The two surviving roommates who were uninjured “called” their friends at the house after believing that “one of the victims on the second floor had passed out and wouldn’t wake up.” A 911 call was made on the cell phone of one of the roommates at 11:58 a.m., police said.

Although police have not identified a suspect, authorities remain confident the attack was targeted.

“Our clarification last night directly addressed comments made by Latah County Attorney Thompson, who said that the suspects specifically observed this residence and that one or more of the occupants was undoubtedly attacked. We remain consistent in our belief that this was in fact a targeted attack, but I have not concluded whether the target was the residence or its occupants,” read a statement from the Moscow Police Department to Fox News on Thursday.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Moscow police at 208-883-7054 or email tipline@ci.moscow.id.us.
