MOSCOW, IDAHO: As the investigation into the University of Idaho students' killing is moving forward, web sleuths are doing their part as they debate over how long the killer was inside the murder house. Earlier, Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin were killed tragically on November 13. Now a Reddit poll asked the users about their opinion on the time duration for which they believe the killer might be inside the home. The options were from five minuts to 30 minutes. Even though in the poll, the majority of the users selected the option of 30 minutes, given that the killer might take an ample amount of time to murder the four victims.
However, many in the comment section disagreed with the poll result saying that it might have taken even less than 5 minutes. One such user wrote, “Yep exactly go in your house and go up to your bedroom and punch your bed 3-5 times. That's basically all it takes.” “No way more than 5. Even 5 is being generous. More like 3 minutes max.” another added. Someone noted, “The killings would of been quick but I think he would of spent time looking at the bodies or something.”

“He didn't go in there to wash the dishes. He found the first victim and stabbed them. So he was in there maybe 30 seconds, which is a long time - set a timer and you'll see. Or better yet, start a timer as soon as you walk through your front door and move quickly to your bedroom and see how fast that really is. Keeping in mind this guy was there in that house before, 99.9% chance of it,” another explained “You know how you win a knife fight? Run. There’s a reason for that expression: it’s brutal, obviously deadly, and fast. People who think this took more than a few minutes are totally ignorant. A person can be stabbed 10 times in 5 seconds there are plenty of horrible videos of it happening on the internet,” yet another user remarked.
Meanwhile, the investigation is in its third week and cops are yet to make a breakthrough or any arrests. Idaho State Police's Communications Director Aaron Snell reportedly said that his team was reviewing footage, that may contain clues. Authorities are also appealing to anyone with information to come forward. Anyone with information about the crime or a tip about the victim's whereabouts, or a suspicious person in the area is asked to call 208-883-7180 or email tipline@ci.moscow.id.us.
