MOSCOW, IDAHO: A recent affidavit filed by the Moscow police reportedly revealed that the University of Idaho murders suspect, 28-year-old Bryan Kohberger, was "seen" by one of the survivors, which has left the internet shocked. The affidavit also revealed other chilling details, such as the phone data pointing out that Kohberger was in the area where the murders took place at least 12 times before the actual killings and that the suspect left behind a knife sheath with his DNA on it. As these revealtions make the rounds of the internet, web sleuths are floating their own posers as they begin discussions on the affidavit.

Dylan Mortensen, one of the two survivors, identified as DM in court records, was the only roommate who saw the suspect. The newly-released court documents also revealed that the survivor told investigators that she saw the masked killer leaving the home and overheard him telling his victims, “I’m going to help you,” before stabbing them to death. She reportedly said that she saw “a figure clad in black clothing and a mask that covered the person’s mouth and nose walking towards her." As she stood in a “frozen shock phase,” she said that the man had “bushy eyebrows” and walked past her and towards the back sliding glass door of the home. She said that she then locked herself in her room.

Discussing the affidavit, a Reddit user said, "So I just read the affidavit and a few things stuck out to me I thought I’d post here," and then went on to list the points that stood out. Some of these included the fact that Mortensen saw a "black hooded figure" but also saw his "bushy eyebrows." The user also stated, "She said she heard a strange man saying “I’m going to help you” but didn’t think anything of it? Just her saying he sounded strange alone wouldn’t you question that or at least yell down to your friend and ask who’s there?" The user adds, "He kills all those roommates but walks past this roommate who was clearly close enough to see details of his face.." "There’s a perfect shoe print right outside the living roommates door to show she was telling the truth of the killers travel out of the house?" was the last question the user asked.

Another user added to the Reddit by speculating about what must have happened that night.  

As mentioned in the affidavit, a shoe print was also found outside Mortensen's room. A forensic team arrived and collected the shoe print, which was not visible to the naked eye, using forensic science techniques. A social media user with a forensic background claimed that the shoe print, as mentioned in the affidavit, will be the next crucial step.
