MOSCOW, IDAHO: The investigation into the quadruple murder of University of Idaho students is at a standstill, with no suspects weeks after the killings. Amid the stalemate, the stalker angle is again making the rounds as a vape shop manager in downtown Moscow, Idaho, has revealed that Kaylee Goncalves often talked to him about a stalker.
A similar conversation took place as recently as three weeks before the Idaho massacre. The manager revealed that Kaylee once told him that she was being stalked by someone "either by the campus or down on Main Street."
NewsNation senior national correspondent Brian Entin quoted one of the manager's revelations, "Moscow, Idaho vape shop manager tells me Kaylee Goncalves talked about a stalker 3 weeks before the murders. You could tell they were all obviously trying to keep Kaylee safe and be there for her as good friends." Previously, police revealed that there was an incident of a stalker that Kaylee informed her family and friends about. However, police further revealed that the angle was dismissed due to a lack of evidence. The Internet weighed on the stalker theory with some claiming that it is a possibility and some arguing that there is no concrete evidence to support it.

Internet once again weighs in on the stalker theory
One user believes that Kaylee Goncalves misread the stalker situation and wrote, "Let's say a couple of quiet weeks had gone by and she started feel like she was over reacting and missing her last few weeks at school with her friends. I think posting her where about on social media was a big mistake." Another user weighed on the stalker theory and tweeted, "I’ve been suspecting this since the beginning. I still can’t seem to shake this feeling that this is what happened."

One user wrote, "Did Kaylee leave the Moscow house earlier than planned (pre graduation) to finish classes at home because of a stalker? Maybe she just thought she would be safe going back for that one party weekend with all her friends around." Another user believes that a familiar person committed the crime saying, "I mean, she may have had a stalker. Not uncommon with fraternities around the corner. I’m not feeling a stalker would kill her and three other people. I feel confident the perp knew all of the victims and they knew him."

One user considered the stalker possibility and said, "If he planned this out, which it looks like he did, he obviously was stalking her." Another user claimed that the stalker theory has been exhausted as the police did not find any evidence, "Police can only follow evidence. She may have had a stalker but there is just no evidence of it. Or maybe she was just very reactive to things going on around her."
