FIRST ON FOX: MOSCOW, Idaho — The two sororities to which three of the slain University of Idaho students belonged are on disciplinary probation, according to community accountability records.
Kaylee Goncalves, 21, was a member of Alpha Phi, while Xana Kernodle, 20, and Maddie Mogen, 21, were members of Pi Beta Phi.
Of the 10 sororities recognized by the University of Idaho, Alpha Phi and Pi Beta Phi are the only two listed on probation for health and safety reasons, which refers to “violations or concerns related to risk management, alcohol /drugs or hazing”.

Kernodle was at the Sigma Chi home hours before the killings with her boyfriend, 20-year-old Ethan Chapin, a frat member who was also stabbed to death on Nov. 13.
Sigma Chi is listed as being in “good standing” with both the University of Idaho and the national headquarters.

The couple returned to Kernodle’s off-campus residence, less than half a mile from the frat house, around 1:45 a.m.
While Kernodle and Chapin were at Sigma Chi, Goncalves and Mogen went to the Corner Club from approximately 10:00 p.m. on November 12 to 1:40 a.m. on November 13. A fellow University of Idaho student described the local bar as “the heart of Greek life on campus” with crowds to capacity most Fridays and Saturdays.

Madison Moye, a fellow student and neighbor, previously told Fox News Digital that nothing was out of the ordinary and that she saw Mogen at the bar “just having a laugh with all her friends.”
“It was a normal night in Moscow,” Moye, a 21-year-old sophomore, told Fox News Digital this week. “Moscow is a safe place. Nothing like this ever happens… I didn’t think anything of it.”
