The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are simply that.

Opinions.

All are presumed innocent until proven otherwise in a court of law.

Sensitive topics are discussed.

Discretion is advised. I'm Vidipolletan. The subject of my investigation is the next huge trial here on Court TV.

The murders of four University of Idaho students. A case that started with a manhunt and is now a death penalty trial here's the story in the dead of night on November 13th 2022 a brutal horror unfolded in a quiet college town. Four University of Idaho students, Kaley Gonzalez, Madison Mogan, Zana Kurnodl, and Ethan Chapin were savagely stabbed to death in their off-campus home.

Their lives stolen in the stillness of early morning the scene was a nightmare untouched valuables

no signs of forced entry and two surviving roommates asleep just rooms away panic rippled across

moscow as fear took hold and answers remained elusive for weeks grief-stricken families and a shaken campus waited desperate for justice then a stunning arrest a criminology PhD student studying just miles away was taken into custody DNA from a knife sheath, cell phone data, and eerie surveillance footage allegedly tied him to the scene.

The community once wrapped in innocence now watches as the trial approaches, a chilling confrontation between law and depravity.

The victim's names are etched in memory. Their voices silenced, but their story far from over.

As we get ready for this trial later this summer,

this is going to be a difficult one on many different levels, but it really begins with the loss.

Four young people gone.

Four innocent, good people murdered.

And it was a brutal crime scene.

And there's surviving roommates who are going to testify this is going to be so

heartbreaking on so many different levels there's another part of this case though that is going to

happen because of the rules in idaho we know very little about what happened that night.

We're getting, as we get closer to trial, we're getting more and more pieces.

But once that trial begins, every day of testimony, we're going to learn something new.

Something new about the investigation, something new about the crime, and something new about the evidence.
