On Thursday, the University of Idaho initiated the demolition of a house near its Moscow campus, where four students were tragically murdered in November 2022.
Demolition commenced in the early morning darkness, with crews employing an excavator to dismantle the front of the house located at 1122 King Road just before 7 a.m.
Debris was loaded onto trucks and removed from the property, with construction workers, police officers, and university officials witnessing the process unfold, Fox News reported.
Within a span of two hours, the residence was leveled, and by the end of the afternoon, the lot had been transformed into a bare patch of ground surrounded by a fence.
A memorial, adorned with photos, flowers, candles, and teddy bears, remains on a rock wall at the front of the property.
The house, situated mere steps from the university campus, was the focal point of an extensive crime scene last year, following the alleged stabbing by quadruple murder suspect Bryan Kohberger of roommates Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Madison Mogen, 21; and Xana Kernodle, 20; along with Kernodle’s 20-year-old boyfriend, Ethan Chapin, in their respective bedrooms.
