Separating fact from fiction

In following the Idaho 4 case for some nine months now, you undoubtedly feel at times inundated with all the information out there. Yes, even with a gag order in place, much is being said.

So, how have you gone about separating fact from fiction?

While I admittedly bought into the stalker narrative early on in the case, my mind did a 180 a few months back.

That is when I was more inclined to believe that drugs sadly were part of this quadruple murder tragedy.

Let me be clear in noting that I by no means think Kaylee, Maddie, Xana and Ethan were big-time drug users. In fact, the four may have not used drugs at all or if any of them did it was on a small level at most.

What I do think is that this case is tied to some kind of drug message to others.

I also want to be clear in noting that I do not believe this was any kind of big drug cartel hit. It could have been something as simple as a local drug deal gone bad involving locals. One possibility could be the fraternities or sororities.

It amazes me how no one (well, most people) wants to bring up the ugly ‘D’ word when discussing this case.

Newsflash! Some college students get mixed up with drugs willingly or even by accident. Next thing you know, they have a tough time walking away from it. Even if some of them are not doing the drugs, they’re in the mix in some capacity. Those banking on making money off of drug sales and the like do not in fact like it when their gravy train is potentially aborted.

While I think there is a lot of crap on You Tube, Tik Tok and the like, I still take the time to listen to a fair number of the interviews etc. You never know when one of the them is going to be true and lead us in a different direction than simply defendant Bryan Kohberger was a stalker and had a thing for one of more of the women at 1122 King Road.

Honestly, while I would not say BK is the brightest grad student/teaching assistant out there, he also does not strike me as a moron.

As such, I find it hard to believe if he had an infatuation with Kaylee, Maddie or Xana he’d simply waltz into the home in the middle of the night hoping to have some time with them. The risk-reward on such a thing turning out the way he’d want it to is not very high. It would have been much easier to kidnap one of them at a time they’d be most vulnerable. That is not in a home with five other people around, a dog there, potential for a gun to be inside and more.

In closing, I came across this interview with a “witness” who claims to have been partying in the home next door to 1122 King Road (back right to the murder home if you looked at home from the street).

Not saying this person is 100 percent credible. Also not saying they are 100 percent a nutcase and/or seeking attention.

My first thought was why wait until now to go public with such information? On the other side of the coin, I firmly believe there are students past (last school year) or present who know what truly went down at 1122 King Road that evening/morning.

Take a listen to their story courtesy of TRUE CRIME DESIGN and you be the judge.

In the meantime, what do you believe to be fact and what is more likely fiction?
