(TheLastPatriotNews.com) – The University of Idaho has announced that the King Road house in Moscow, Idaho, the place of the alleged murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen, and Ethan Chapin by Bryan Kohberger, is slated for demolition in a bid to move forward from this dark chapter.
The house, which has become a somber landmark in Idaho after the tragic events of November 13, 2022, will be demolished on December 28.
In preparation for the demolition, Kohberger’s defense team will be allowed to visit the house to take photographs and measurements and possibly gather drone footage, ensuring that all necessary evidence is documented before the house is razed.
University of Idaho President Scott Green has expressed that while the house holds a significant emotional connection for the families of the victims, its presence serves as a “grim reminder” of the tragedy.
The decision to demolish it is seen as a step towards healing for the community, acknowledging the pain and loss the house represents.
However, this decision has not been without controversy. Shanon Gray, the attorney for Kaylee Goncalves’ family, has criticized the move, emphasizing the house’s crucial role as a critical piece of evidence in the ongoing case.
He points out that the home, being the primary crime scene, holds substantial evidentiary value.
Gray also voiced the families’ disappointment, indicating that the university had initially sought their opinions on the demolition but ultimately chose to disregard them in favor of its own interests.
This action has sparked debate about the balance between preserving evidence for legal purposes and the community’s need to heal and move on from a tragic event.
